Ant-Man 3: “B**ch Be**er have my M**ey!”
Tumblr media
It sucks, you know?? When you have a high expectation for something and it turns out to be a dud: whether it's a movie or an album, a restaurant... 
a Super Bowl Halftime Show... With a Marvel movie, you're excited, others see it first, and the reactions are -
Tumblr media
You're like "NO!"
BUT, you find the polar opposite reactions as well... although THOSE reactions are coming from kids, or people who were drunk/high while watching, or people who show up to the theater like this guy -
Tumblr media
So, what are you supposed to believe? (Kids, Lesson Time: "Don't have expectations.")
I'm sure you've heard certain complaints about Ant-Man 3 already. I will say that most of those complaints are 100. Does that mean the movie is bad?
It starts off with the loveable Scott Lang, skipping and whistling down the street; not a care in the world, and feeling himself, cuz he has taken sole responsibility for saving the world ("End Game"). And why not?? - he's been a joke for a while, so take that victory lap, big boy.
Tumblr media
Then, there's of course The QUANTUM REALM, which everyone keeps saying is so dangerous, and yet, in every Ant-Man movie, somebody goes there. This movie is no different and 
Tumblr media
OH NOOOOOOOOOOO!
it happened again.
The problem is that this time they really shouldn't have gone back, cuz Janet (Michelle MuthaBleepin Pfeiffer)
Tumblr media
 was stingy with the details of her 30 year trip to and back from The Quantum Realm. She failed to mention her Summer fling with the newest super villain KANG (J.Majors - 
Tumblr media
known to the acting community as "The Shit").
Was it a Summer fling? They don't paint that picture, but... they were alone for a very long time, they saved each others lives, they were fixing things in a very sweaty manner; banging and grunting, and they were sharing intimate parts of their lives with each other, so... she also may have been banging some military alien, maybe this thirsty piece
Tumblr media
, and definitely this guy.
Tumblr media
But, I digress :)  (You go, gurl.)
She finds out that Kang is a monster 
Tumblr media
(A time/dimension traveler, who has been around for ever and has the most advanced tech as a result.... oh, and he has an Alexander the Great mindset) , and abandons him there to go back to her family.  
She didn't mention any of that to her family! Way to go, Janet!
So, the mission is everyone get home and don't let Kang follow you.
Problem is they got split up.
OK, so this part I loved! 
Tumblr media
We got to explore this new world, which is visually very cool. In fact, the CGI throughout most of this movie is satisfying (especially with 3D action). There are a few things that this movie does that are really interesting:
The whole evolution thing (it's a new world with all kinds of life in it, doing lively things).
They do something really cool with the language that different species speak.
There is some sort of "probability realm", which we see a lil bit of in the trailer - an interesting concept, that is unfortunately not explored enough.
The tech is dope! And everytime we see Kang! Whew! Jonathan Majors nails it! He's calm, collected, focused, and scary. The Ant-Man family may be playing around, but he aint, and I love it. Oh, and the ants! I frickin loved the ants!
Have I said enough good things about this? :) Are we clear? I'm a PMB (Proud Marvel Bitch), so it's not always easy for me to criticize them. It feels similar to Rihanna's Super Bowl Halftime Show. I had to say a bunch of nice (and true) things first, before... you know... There's no way to criticize a pregnant woman without sounding like a jerk, especially if that pregnant woman is Rihanna. But...
Tumblr media
I love Rihanna, btw.
OK.
Visually, stunning... but everything concerning the story is a hot mess. To save time on this rant I will simply boil the prob down to its root:
Too much going on:
It was a simple plot! Get yo asses home, and tell Kang to bleep off! MARVEL! why couldn't you have just kept it simple?!
There's all of the secrets with Janet; her secret lives (and ex's:), there's all of the family drama ( and the family lessons this movie attempts to teach us), there's all of the natives and their bullshit, there's M.O.D.O.K.... I really hated him; like everything about him. He's supposed to look weird, but... 
Tumblr media
MARVEL, YOU'RE BETTER THAN THIS.
They made him some moron from the first movie, and there's a whole thing with him being a dick. For a family movie, they use the word "dick" so much. There's no way that children walk away from this movie, and "dick"  doesn't become their new favorite word.
There is way too much going on with Kang. They explain it, but.... not very well. His story is explained way better in Loki season 1. One of the criticisms of the movie is that this whole film is just a set-up for Kang - which it is. I have no problem with that, but then do it properly. Give us more Kang (in story). We'll be getting all kinds of Kangs soon (time traveling is a dick). I feel like the uncovering of Kang's (and multiple Kangs) story is like helping a hoarder clean out their living room - you've been tossing junk out for hours and it still looks like a mess.
There are also some plot holes, which I won't say anything about, except this - Kang has all of this HI-Tech stuff, so why is he struggling so much with Ant-Man and The Wasp... AND the Cassie.
May I talk about The Wasp and The Cassie??!
Tumblr media
In the trailer, all I saw was Kang kicking Ant-Man's ass up and down The Quantum Realm; practicing for "Creed III" He's also in a room where Kang is stomping the hell out of his skull, like Ant-Man owed him some money.
Tumblr media
  Don't act like you forgot, Scott!
The whole time, I'm like - "WHERE IS THE WASP?! DOES SHE NOT SEE HER MAN GETTING BEAT UP?!" - her name is still in the title isn't it?! Pull your weight, lady!
Now, she's there, and saves him quite a bit, but my point is they didn't really promote her, because they know that she doesn't really matter. I'm sorry if that sounds mean, but it's true. After that second Ant-Man movie, her character just... idk... becomes forgettable.
She's just a tag-on to the franchise. Was she in The End Game battle? I think so... but I don't remember. Was she at the funeral in that movie? I don't remember. Any other Marvel important moments? Was she in any of the "What If" stuff? I think so, but I don't remember. Is she mentioned at all in any other Marvel movies or shows? I don't remember. Not only do I not remember, but it doesn't matter. We never got to know her that well. She doesn't need to be here. Someone that we care more about could have let Ant-Man get beat up, and then at the last second, save him.
The Cassie? - same thing. And enough with these younger characters who are super geniuses. We only need one, and we have Spider-Man. We all know that most kids are dumb (No offense. Not you kids who might read this... other kids. Your Uncle Rambling Praphit is rooting for you... stay in school). Cassie, whom we don't really know, shows up all ready to fight and hogging up some scene time from Ant-Man.
Tumblr media
She was all like "Care about me, audience! I'm young! I'm smart! I'm a girl! And I'm just as good as my dad, Ant-Man, even though I've had no training. YAY! Follow me!"
I was like "Who is this clown? I don't know you. Your daddy cares about you, so I guess I will, but,,, speaking of your daddy, can we get back to him?? " These tag-ons just don't have any personality for themselves. There's no reason to be excited about them.
Tag-on after tag-on: Wasp, Cassie, Michael Douglas, Chidi from the Good Place... 
Tumblr media
this chick (who seems cool). 
Tumblr media
It's too much! I loved the world, and it's beautiful... the kids out there and or the people who saw this movie while high will love it, but can we stick to a character developement??!
Give me the ever delightful Paul Rudd, skipping and whistling through new world, cracking jokes. Give me Michellle Pfeiffer, action hero, blowing things up in this new world, and having Summer flings with aliens. Give me Kang, torturing and zapping his way through the miracle of life in this new world, while explaining just what the hell his problem is! But, pick one! Dammit, Marvel!
Grade?! I don't even know! I’m exhausted by my own rant. 
Much like The Wasp, it just doesn't matter. We'll say a generous C- Same reaction I had after watching that Super Bowl Halftime Show, I guess... I said afterwards... "Well, she's pregant. How bout that??"
("But, what did you think of her performance?")
"Um... pregnant. I love her though. Her catalog... whew! I kinda wish she did CHEERS tho... I guess she can't promote alcohol at a family event. The aggression of Bitch better have my money and the brutality of football is fine, but not alcohol... everybody knows that."
("But, her performance?") 
Tumblr media
There's a show called "Fringe" Once upon a time, it was one of my favs. It was kinda like X-Files meets X-Men... kinda. But, then in later seasons they got into different dimensions and time travel and the show became hard to follow. You knew of one character, but then met a "variant" version, and then had to learn about them all over again.
Marvel is in danger of this. You've gotta be on your game to write stories on this type of level.
On your game like Steph Curry at practice when he shoots like 48 for 50 from half court. I feel like Marvel has been more like 5 for 50. Now, it's game time, and they're like "We're ready! Let's do this!" And I'm like, "We're so f**king  doomed." smh
I hope I'm wrong.

Writing While Traveling
April 5, 2024|Blogging
Whether it is a vacation or business, sooner or later you will need to travel. Do you bring your laptop with you or use an iPad?  For me, it depends on how I am traveling, if in my own vehicle, I can bring whatever I want. If flying, I try to go lighter. It also depends on how long I am going for and where. Because I do a daily blog I need to write, but if I am going on vacation I may take a break altogether and unplug. Of course, there is always the traditional way of writing, using paper and pencil. This is where a medium-sized journal comes in handy, and remember no matter how you do it, "Enjoy the Write!"

Hi Jenn! What do you think is an appropriate way for a pb author to introduce a book they wrote, giving credit to the illustrator as well? (ie I know authors shouldn't refer to a pb they wrote as "My" book - just wondering what you think the best (and maybe worst??) wording is to put the illustrator on equal footing.) Truly appreciate your thoughts!
It's just not appropriate / correct / kind to act like you made the book all by yourself -- I know it can FEEL like that sometimes, since often you don't even know the illustrator at all, so it's like you are in a bit of an isolation chamber -- but obviously, in a picture book with an author and illustrator, the two creators are partners, whether or not they know each other. Neither the pictures nor the text hold the entire book together, one doesn't exist without the other, right?
So since you know that, just be sure to always credit the illustrator, and don't make it sound like they just happened to help you out a bit or "chip in" or whatever -- treat them like the co-creators they are.
"I'm so excited to say that my new book, MR PEESMELL INVADES MANHATTAN is out in the world today! I hope you love my ode to hilariously stinky NYC!" [BAD, because you don't acknowledge the illustrator at all]
"I'm so excited to say that my new book, MR PEESMELL INVADES MANHATTAN (with illus by Sam Artistic) is out in the world today! I hope you love my ode to hilariously stinky NYC!" [BAD, bc it sounds like an aside, like they just happened to drop by and throw in a few pictures. And you should tag them if they are on social media]
"I'm so excited to say that MR PEESMELL INVADES MANHATTAN, with words by me and art by the amazing [@ - Samantha B Artistic] is out in the world today! We hope you love our ode to hilariously stinky NYC!" [Good, bc you credit Samantha's part to Samantha on an equal basis as yourself, compliment her, tag her, and call it "our" book, which it is.]
"Look! Look! It's a real book! [@-Samantha B Artistic] and I had a blast creating MR PEESMELL TAKES THE L TRAIN, and it's now available at bookstores near you!" [Good, bc the implication here is that you are co-creators, which you are]
"Breaking News: MR PEESMELL AND THE CANAL STREET MYSTERY by Patty Goodwriter and Sam Artistic and published by RPH is the winner of the 2027 National Book Award; this is the third win in as many years for the beloved and bestselling Mr Peesmell saga." [Good, because this award goes to the whole book, not just one creator, and this lists the creators on equal footing].
"Breaking News: Samantha B Artistic is the winner of the 2027 Caldecott Award for MR PEESMELL AND THE CANAL STREET MYSTERY, written by Patty Goodwriter and published by RPH." [Good, because in this case this award is specifically for Illustration, so it is appropriate to list that person as the winner and the other person as secondary. And when you brag about it, Patty, frame it as congratulations to Samantha specifically.]
Breaking News: Patty Goodwriter is the winner of the 2027 Newbery Award for MR PEESMELL AND THE CANAL STREET MYSTERY, illustrated by Samantha B Artistic and published by RPH. [as above but vice-versa, and when you brag about it, frame it as "this wouldn't be the book it is without Samantha"]

What To Avoid In Good Writing
April 4, 2024|Blogging
Here are eight common writing mistakes that you should avoid, or correct if you want your writing to stand out for the right reasons. Misspelled words, inconsistent spelling, and punctuation, wrong word usage, confusing contractions with possessive pronouns, weak qualifiers, sentences that go on and on, walls of text, and lack of focus. But with that said, remember to "Enjoy the Write!" KSCarson
