Ant-Man Pitch Meeting

so you're here to talk about ant-man yes sir I am cool so uh do you need your parking validated or something what make sure you pull on the door on your way out because it looks like a push but it's actually a pole too don't you want me to pitch to you oh you're you're not leaving I wasn't planning on it Wow well awesome we had a lot of people leave the project so I just kind of assumed Wow bummer yeah so you know please don't leave me or my last hope sounds good please okay so what's the story about well you know how in the first Iron Man movie there's a character that develops a super suit and then he's like oh this is too powerful to get out but then a corporate bad guy from the same company wants to sell it and then makes his own evil version of the suit and so you end up with a big final fight of nice guy super suit versus evil guy super suit yeah so what I'd like to do is that well if it ain't broke you know keep doing it till it stops making money that's what I figured so tell me about the characters well first of all there's hank pym he's the one that invented the shrinking technology and he used to be ant-man how was that technology gonna work and consistently oh yeah we're gonna say that it reduces the space between atoms so objects keep their mass but then we're gonna do a bunch of stuff that contradicts that how so well sometimes ant-man is gonna have the mass and force of a full-grown man but other times he'll be light enough to run on a gun barrel or ride an ant and Hank Pym is gonna have an actual tank as a keychain which should weigh about 60 tons why so inconsistent well I wanted to do certain things because they would look cool but then I was like oh those totally break the rules that I myself established in the script yeah but then I was like I don't care and you did it anyway and I did it anyway the rule of cool strikes again yeah so anyway Hank wants this guy Scott to become ant-man and save the world cuz he can't do it himself anymore Scott yeah he's this guy that's just getting out of jail why does Hank want him well Scott's an amazing thief like the stuff of legends when it comes to stealing why was he in jail Oh cuz he got caught stealing doesn't doesn't sound like he's that good at it yeah I guess not in fact he's gonna fail pretty much any time he tries to steal something in the movie strange choice of a guy to save the world I guess so so what does Scott say when Hank asks him oh well he doesn't ask him directly oh he doesn't no instead he sets up a super elaborate series of events that could go wrong in a thousand different ways just so that maybe Scott could steal the suit why didn't he just ask him he wanted to see if he'd be able to break into a safe could've just asked him yeah but this way is more fun this Hank guy playing around a lot for someone who wants to save the world oh yeah huh anyway Scott was in jail for about five years so now he wants to make money so he could pay child support and see his daughter how old is his daughter she's like six or seven so he went to jail for stealing when he had a one or two year old baby at home that's right I gotta say hank pym is putting a lot of faith in the super sketchy dude yeah well he says everyone deserves a second chance yeah but should your second chance out of jail have saved the world level stakes probably not so who else is in the movie well there's Hanks daughter hope that he keeps secrets from for no valid reason huh and she's gonna fall in love with Scott because they're both attractive and is there a villain in the movie oh yeah we've got this villain Darrin cross and he is evil so what's his deal I just told you oh yeah just like a generic evil guy you know that's what I'm talking about so he wants to sell this yellow jacket suit to some evil military types right like an Iron Man but one of them's not super interested so cross is gonna use his incomplete shrink tech to turn him into a tiny pile of goo and flush him down a toilet Jesus why doesn't he try selling that as a weapon that's horrifying he doesn't think of that I guess now I hate to do this but is there a way we could kind of tie this movie in with the Avengers oh yes super easy barely an inconvenience oh yeah yeah I'll just add like a little side quest where ant-man has to go get a thing and he'll end up fighting an Avenger I love it what Avenger did you have in mind well Iron Man would be cool yeah if you want to double the movies budget Oh does Robert Downey jr. cost a lot you're damn right he does that guy's contracts basically drain money from our bank accounts oh wow did you know that according to his last contract we have to pay him every time he uses our bathrooms I didn't know that every time he poops in this building it costs us a thousand bucks jeez yeah I mean it's not that bad of a deal yeah it's kind of a steal when you think about it so anyway how does the movie end well Darrin Cross is gonna end up figuring out the shrink tech and finishing his suit Oh so the team is gonna try to steal the technology from him and it's gonna end in this big fight between him and Scott and their little super suits how's that gonna go well despite having no training and never having been in the suit before cross is gonna be like an expert fighter Wow and then Scott's gonna go subatomic to kill a subatomic yeah like smaller than an atom but you said the technology works by bringing atoms closer together yeah whatever okay and then Scott's gonna be parted for all the illegal stuff he did and he's gonna dedicate himself to his family yeah I guess he's not gonna want to do anything that would jeopardize being able to see his daughter that's the last thing he'd do [Music] hey guys Ryan here hope you enjoyed that pitch there
