Ant-Man: The Pym Particle Partition

Everything looked and sounded great aside from at 34:45, where Hank’s voice makes a noticeable change — that’s my only real audio complaint.

I agree with recordwrangler95 as far as the abruptness in the transition between Scott talking to Luis and then being at the door for Cassie’s party. Maybe move the audio of Scott saying “I’ve got a daughter to take care of” from 02:45 to over Luis’ reaction at 06:30.. then some establishing shot(s) of a nice neighborhood in San Fran. This way there’s an audible queue for where we’re going as well as a visual one.

Recordwrangler’s point about the goat scene is one I sort of disagree with — I think we just cut all the goats. Cutting the remaining one keeps the exposure to Cross limited for the time-being, which keeps from it going from 0-100 too quickly and removes the continuity issue with his and Hope’s clothing.

Right around that time is also when Hank mentions the Avengers “dropping cities out of the sky,” which I personally would consider editing only because it allows for Ant-Man to, without eagle eyes, take place in a perhaps earlier moment in the watch order.. but that doesn’t affect my rating at all.

The only other thing I really take issue with is removing Scott v Falcon. It isn’t fundamental to the plot, necessarily, but it’s a fun scene that gets paid off via a couple lines of dialogue in Civil War that, with this edit, make no sense.

Everything else flowed incredibly well, particularly the reintegration of deleted scenes. They were seamlessly added to the movie and narratively made up for the earlier scenes with Cross and Hank that were removed. The post-credits scene was incredible as well hahaha

Over all, despite its success in reintegrating deleted scenes, this version of the edit could use a bit of continuity/pacing work to make it a replacement for the original film at this time.
