3 huge plot holes

I guess Marvel makes many films in this universe, it either forgets what they did or they think we will forget what they did

First off, the shrinking technology depicted in this movie are impossible. Thats plot hole #1. Plot holes 2 and 3 have to do with Peggy Carter and Howard Stark in the beginning. Peggy died the year or 2 before in the Winter Soldier. And Howard Stark died in the 90s, killed by the Winter Soldier in the early 90s.

Guess they figure we are idiots who don't pay attention to details in their movies

An "idiot who doesn't pay attention to detail" might have watched this:

... and missed the prominent "1989" chyron over the still-under-construction SHIELD Triskelion.

Also, an "idiot who doesn't pay attention to detail" might have mistakenly referred to a fictional technology as a "plot hole"

Luckily, we are not all "idiots who don't pay attention to detail"

Well said

I would have to rewatch to evaluate #2 or #3, but #1 is ridiculous. This is a super-hero world. It is impossible for a human being to be as strong as Thor, or to turn into a rampaging, green monster from exposure to gamma rays. People cannot cling to walls without technological devices. That is just a start.

Correct. So we agree then. Superhero movies are filled with plot holes

Your trolling is a bit weak these days. New pills?

[–] Costumer (1829) 3 years ago

Not at all what I said. I said #1 is NOT a plot hole and that I had no opinion of #2 and #3 since it has been too long since I had seen the movie to comment.

agree with you. It's a hero movie. shrinking technology may not exist but neither do super soldiers, hulks, flying metal suits, Norse god aliens and so forth. I can't tell if the OP is trolling or not. but as someone said above; The beginning of Antman takes place in 1989 before Howard Stark is killed. and Peggy dies in Civil War; not "2 years before Winter Soldier" but either way, that's still 25+ years AFTER the opening scene in Antman so it makes perfect sense for her to be there.

OP is trolling - I checked his history and then ignore-clicked him

He calls everything a "plot hole"

[–] Burk48917 (11427) 3 years ago

Check out his other posts, he's trolling you. Incorrectly using the term "plot hole" is some little game of his.
