I have to say it because we know people get mad. Spoiler Alerts! The topics mentioned, though short may lead to exact plot points that could spoil the movie for some viewers of the Disney Marvel Studios Avengers Endgame.
The brilliant thing about the new trailer just like the last one Marvel gave us for Avengers Endgame was that it gave us some new things to look forward to without revealing anything, especially the plot. Here are a few things you might have missed.
Ant-man may start off the film stuck in a Quantum realm.
As we saw in the end of Ant-man and the Wasp. Janet Pym made a point of saying "Don't get stuck in a time vortex". He is shown at the avengers tower in the year 1983. This may lead into a plot to use the Quantum realm to go back in time during events in Avengers and Avengers Age of Ultron to collect the infinity stones to face off with Thanos.
New Avenger Suits
A lot of people think the new red and black suits is considered to be the ones they wear to go back off to face Thanos. But I believe this is what is warn to go into the Quantum Realm. Since Janet Pym mentioned the ability to get stuck in a time vortex with the help of the other Avengers, i.e. Tony Stark, they may learn how to use time travel to their advantage and go back and forth through time to reset everything. It has also been mentioned that toys have been released spoiling and confirming that these are in fact. click here for the story
Thor and Captain Marvel Paring
The Norse God and Carol Danvers have an intense face to face but they are not scene in the quantum realm suit walk scene. They must have been teamed up since they are able to survive in space. I believe the teams have split up and your two strongest guns are traveling through space. I think Thor would be a fool not to at least try to flirt with Captain Marvel. As mentioned on a facebook comment Brie Larson is looking like a snack in this trailer.
Bonus: Spider-Man: Far From Home Theory
Time travel and resetting things that Thanos has done to the universe may be why it seems that we will begin the next Spider-man movie as if the events in Infinity War and Endgame will not happen. Meaning we may be experiencing things in an alternative timeline that the Avengers can live with. Will the surviving avengers move to the new timeline and leave Thanos in the one he created making everyone happy? We'll have to find out.

After seeing the events that unfolded at the end of Infinity War, it’s strange to go back to the light hearted, humorous Marvel that we’re used to seeing. I was a big fan of the first Ant-Man, in fact it’s one of my favourite Marvel movies. It was more of a heist comedy and that’s what I loved about it, just like Winter Soldier is much more of a mystery thriller than a typical superhero flick.
Ant-Man And The Wasp is obviously set before Avengers: Infinity War, as well as being set two years after Civil War. Scott Lang (Paul Rudd) is under house arrest due to his actions in Civil War, until Hope Van Dyne (Evangeline Lilly) and Hank Pym (Michael Douglas) need his help once more. They have a plan that could potentially bring back Hope’s mother from the quantum realm, whilst also wrangling with the movie's villain called Ghost.
I was actually a little disappointed with this movie, the issue I thought I was going to have I did end up having by the end. We know exactly what’s going to happen and because of this there never feels like there’s any true danger. But take away Infinity War and Ant-Man And The Wasp still lacks in some kind of danger. The plot is as straightforward as it gets, everything runs pretty smoothly without any implications. There’s a few plot points that don't really advance the story but there’s enough subplots to keep it from being boring. Scott is a bit of a mixed bag, I felt as though he was torn between two minds. Sometimes he behaves like a sulky child, then other times he can be a mature, responsible adult. Ant-Man And The Wasp doesn't do enough to separate these two aspects of Scott’s personality.
The storytelling in this movie isn't brilliant, there is however many other aspects that are really well done. Most noteworthy being the villian (If you can call her that) Ghost, she isn't doing what she's doing out of anger, revenge, or to conquer the world. She’s slowly dying and everything she's doing is to save her own life. I felt this added a great layer of empathy to the character. I know this is going to be a controversial thing to say that I much preferred her motives over Killmonger from Black Panther. Killmonger (Although a cool villain) did his actions out of revenge, and although lodes of people called it new and unique for the Marvel Universe I personally never saw it.
The choreography during the action scenes is really well crafted, there’s a few brief hand to hand fight scenes but the majority of them are CGI. Allowing the director much more creativity over how he wanted to showcase the action scenes. The comedy can be very hit or miss this time around, whereas I thought most of the jokes landed in the first Ant-Man, this isn't the case with its sequel. There’s a lot of call backs to similar jokes from the first movie which weren't exactly appreciated, the only one I chuckled at was Luis doing his overly long monologue flashback as he was being interrogated. Most of the jokes can out stay their welcome, such as one where Scott keeps asking questions and replies with “I knew that”. Evangeline Lilly and Paul Rudd have good chemistry and Michael Douglas is always fun to watch.
Overall, Ant-Man And The Wasp is a good entry in the Marvel Universe. Far from as good as the first, it does enough to stand on its own by delivering some impressive action sequences, fun chemistry between its main leads, and a memorable villain. Of course it lacks the sheer scale of Infinity War, but it makes for a fun distraction whilst we wait for Avengers 4.
