Along with new images, plot info, and character details, the latest issue of Entertainment Weekly also had the director of Ant-Man, Peyton Reed, discuss the ants of the Marvel adaptation. Like in the comics, Scott Lang will be able to communicate with ants through his costume and helmet, and we'll even see them attack his antagonists at some point in the movie. Reed says that all the insects in the movie will be CGI, but real ones were used for reference. The specific ants that we'll see are fire ants, winged carpenter ants, and bullet ants. "It's impossible to get real ants to do anything you want them to do," said Reed. "Because none of us is Ant-Man! Their bite is one of most painful in the insect kingdom. The bullet ant would definitely rank as the most badass." What do you think?





Armed with the astonishing ability to shrink in scale but increase in strength, con-man Scott Lang must embrace his inner-hero and help his mentor, Dr. Hank Pym, protect the secret behind his spectacular Ant-Man suit from a new generation of towering threats. Against seemingly insurmountable obstacles, Pym and Lang must plan and pull off a heist that will save the world. Directed by Peyton Reed, Ant-Man stars Paul Rudd, Michael Douglas, Corey Stoll, Evangeline Lilly, David Dastmalchian, Michael Pena, Bobby Cannavale, Abby Ryder Fortson, Judy Greer, Wood Harris John Slattery and Gregg Turkington with multi-hyphenate T.I., and the film opens July 17, 2015

If Fox wants us to believe the FF movie exists, they better start giving us something. Otherwise, the new FF is BS.

Control is a bit strong word for a man with only the power to communicate with insects- not brainwash them.

All the doubters will eat their words. Just like with Guardians. This movie will be awesome. Maybe not A guardians size hit but it will be at least on the level of the first Thor movie or Thor 2(I mean as far as making money not quality)

"Elihas realized the the bulk of Ant-Man's power came from his ability to control ants, and reasoned that this must be accomplished through enslavement. He built a device that allowed him to speak with ants. He told them that in order to be free of their enslavement they should bring Ant-Man to a designated spot to be trapped. The ants told Ant-Man about the trap and he had countermeasures in place to escape Egghead's traps."

Fatal mistake is believe Ant-Man mind controls his ants. He doesn't. He just communicates with them.

Tim Burton made Pee-wee's Big Adventure, and Beetlejuice before he made Batman(1989). Batman(1989) is still my favorite Batman movie.
