I’m really disappointed that Ant Man was not brought into the size/speed discussion. Not mad. Just disappointed.
I didn’t think to mention it, but yes. The scene in which Ant-Man is almost run over by Thomas the Tank Engine … I don’t think that was as dangerous as it was made out to be. On the one hand, Ant-Man’s whole thing is that he is still as strong as a full sized person because his mass is just condensed (which isn’t exactly how physics works) but on the other hand, I don’t think a plastic train would crush and ant … but maybe I’m wrong. Interesting to think about.
