So where's Wasp/Janet? (Contains spoilers, fwiw)


The whole time I was watching this, two thoughts ran through my head.
1. Why is Stark/Betty/Bruce all so much older than the kids? That was covered in another thread, but the answer is 'no good reason.'

2. Where's Janet? It seems like Tony made Iron Avengers for those who had fallen, or, in Thor's case, left. That implied to me early in the movie that she had survived, and I was looking forward to at least a cameo by her. I guess that Tony just didn't feel like making a robot Janet. ;(

A third brief nitpick: as daughter of two Asgardians, Torrun should be able to survive in space ok, yet it seemed she started to freeze up shortly after tossing Ultron. Which, incidentally, I was about shouting at the screen, "NOOOO, toss him into the bloody sun you fool!"

It was an ok flick. It had some continuity errors, it was definitely geared towards younger kids- but it was decent nonetheless. A few more tie ins that might have made it great:
1. Have the new Captain America take his dad's original shield from Ultron's museum.
2. When Torrun is praying for help to her father, it would have been very cool to hear thunder and a disembodied voice say, "Now, my daughter, in your time of greatest need, I send you Mjolnir! For whoever holds this hammer, should he- should she!- be judged worthy, shall have the power of THOR!" Followed by Mjolnir dropping out of the sky to her feet. Would have been cool. Then, the battle over, he could have appeared, reclaimed the hammer, and offered her entry to Asgard then.

Overall, 6/10.

Did you miss all of the Iron Wasps that attacked Pym and the Hulk?
