The reason AoU was criticized a lot was because Ultron was nothing like his comic version.
Ultron in the comics was a lot more menacing and creepy. Also, they missed an opportunity to incorporate Hank Pym into the movie, which could have been the perfect lead into Antman.

I thought Ultron was creepy enough! (That scene where he "killed" himself tho!)
I'm a big fan of Pixar and Disney Movies, and the Skylanders games. The Cars franchise and Ratatouille are my favorite Pixar movies. Paperman is my favorite thing to ever come out of Disney!

Watched the film yesterday, really liked it. It's a pretty good film that doesn't require watching the previous films to enjoy.

Saw it yesterday!

My thoughts on end credits:

Spoiler: show
I pretty much expected Hope would take the Wasp mantle. But then the end credits scene where Bucky was with Cap and Falcon was surprising, it makes me so happy to see them mentioning AntMan. Cannot wait to see Antman join the Avengers in Civil War.



Also there was a special exciting thing I saw:

Spoiler: show
When Falcon is asking around for AntMan, the Asian woman mentions she knows a guy who can swing and stick on walls....

'Ant-Man' Director Peyton Reed in Negotiations to Return for Sequel (Exclusive)

The film, which will star Paul Rudd, has been dated for a July 2018 release.

Marvel Studios is getting busy with its deal-making.

Less than two weeks after dating a slew of movies including an Ant-Man sequel for 2018, the studio is in negotiations with Peyton Reed to return as director of Ant-Man and the Wasp.

It marks one of the first deals surrounding Marvel’s recently dated movies. In addition to Ant-Man and the Wasp, those films include Black Panther — which moved up from July 6, 2018, to a Feb. 16, 2018 — and Captain Marvel, which was pushed out from Nov. 2, 2018, to March 8, 2019. The studio also scheduled three untitled movies for 2020.

It wasn’t immediately clear that a sequel to the tentpole about the world's smallest hero, played by Paul Rudd, would be part of Phase 3, but the movie and the character proved quite popular.

Domestically, the film took in $178 million to become one of the top 10 movies of the year, and it also did solid business overseas. And, in a big heap of icing on the cake, Ant-Man made a huge showing in China over the weekend, earning $43.2 million for an updated worldwide total of $455 million.

There are no writers yet for the sequel. Edgar Wright, Joe Cornish, Adam McKay and Rudd were the credited writers on the first go, and it is all but certain Wright and Cornish won't be back for the sequel.

The character will be seen next in 2015's Captain America: Civil War. Disney will release the sequel on July 6, 2018.

Reed is repped by WME and Sloane Offer.

‘Ant-Man’ Director Peyton Reed on the Sequel, Putting ‘The Wasp’ in the Title, and ‘Fantastic Four’ Failures

In late October, word came that Marvel and Ant-Man director Peyton Reed were in talks on a contract to make a sequel. On Tuesday, the 51-year-old filmmaker indicated that a deal to reunite him with the miniature hero was inching toward completion.

“We’re [still] in negotiations, but I think it’s looking pretty good,” the director, also know for the teen comedy Bring It On and relationship dramedy The Break-Up, told Yahoo Movies.

A shot at a sequel would be just rewards for Reed, who entered the Ant-Man equation relatively late in the game. In mid-2014, Reed took over for fan-beloved director Edgar Wright, who had been developing the project for nearly a decade, only to split up with Marvel in a highly publicized divorce. Thanks to his own history with Marvel (Reed grew up a comic book obsessive, and had some near-misses with the studio before) and a crucial rewrite by star Paul Rudd and collaborator Adam McKay, Reed was able to make the project his own. Marvel’s been known to cycle through directors — only a handful have made multiple films with the studio — but Reed’s mix of fan enthusiasm and desire for authorship makes a return too hard to pass up.

“I think one of the appealing things about coming back for a sequel is to be able to build it from the ground up this time,” Reed said. “Also, [there’s] stuff that we clearly set up in the first movie that we want to pay off and have fun with in the second movie. Since we know [the characters’] origins, we can go in some weird, unique and different territory.”

Reed’s Ant-Man was more of a heist film that superhero epic, with Rudd’s Scott Lang using his master lock-picking skills — and the super-powered suit given to him by Hank Pym (Michael Douglas) — to interrupt the terrorist plans of former Pym protégé Darren Cross (Corey Stoll). The cheapest-to-make Marvel film (a “paltry” $130 million budget) was released to some skepticism thanks to the Wright drama, but positive reviews helped it earn $517 million worldwide, a decent number for the blockbuster factory. And the sequel will likely garner more positive attention right off the bat thanks to its name alone: Ant-Man and The Wasp, which gives equal billing (and footing) to the heroine played by Evangeline Lilly (The Hobbit).

Marvel movies have featured female heroes, but even when they play equally large parts (see: Black Widow in Captain America: Winter Soldier), they’ve never been name-checked in the title. Reed acknowledges that his chosen title was in part meant to help remedy that before the release of a planned Ms. Marvel slated for 2019.

“It just happened to be organic for the characters of Ant-Man and Wasp, [so] it worked,” he said. “Her last line in the movie — ‘It’s about damn time’ — [is] very much about her specific character and arc in that movie, but it is absolutely about a larger thing. It’s about damn time: We’re going to have a fully realized, very very complicated hero in the next movie who happens to be a woman.”

Reed can’t tell these stories in isolation, of course; everything he does has to jive with the larger Marvel Cinematic Universe. In Ant-Man, there’s an important cameo by Falcon (Anthony Mackie), and more significantly, Scott Lang will become more integrated into the MCU with an appearance in 2016’s Captain America: Civil War. Reed, a fan from childhood, was more than happy to work with the Marvel braintrust. He showed drafts of Ant-Man to Civil War directors Joe and Anthony Russo, so they could understand the character’s tone. And later, Reed received their draft of Civil War so that he could make sure it fit in with his tone and plans for Ant-Man. He’s also seen the rough cut footage of the film — he calls it “fantastic” — though Reed does admit to some high school-like jealousy.

“There was definitely a point where I was a little envious,” he laughed. “I felt a proprietary thing over that character. I remember to say to Paul, ‘You’re going down to Atlanta to work with those other guys?’ It was like my girlfriend had left me for someone else.”
