In light of Peyton Reed’s Ant-Man opening to a $58 million weekend — which was considered a disappointment after the gargantuan numbers posted by every other Marvel movie since 2008’s The Incredible Hulk — the guys at the MAMO podcast invited me to join them their latest round table and offer some thoughts on the movie and the character, and ambitions and limitations of the Marvel Cinematic Universe in general, especially after this week’s State-Of-The-MCU piece.

I had fun! You should listen! Even if the background noise is a little on the loud side.
