Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania may be challenging the MCU's themes, as Kang might have a valid point about the greater good.
Superhero movies often have a fairly binary perspective on morality. Though characters like Thanos may have ideals that resonate with some, it’s pretty clear that the vast majority of antagonists in those films are clearly in the wrong.may be changing that, as the new overarching antagonist Kang the Conqueror could have a valid point midway through the film., is sacrifice. The heroes lost against Thanos in that film because, as Captain America said, “we don’t trade lives.
Scott and the rest of his crew follow the usual routine of ignoring these warnings — which is fair, since they’re coming from a megalomaniacal otherworldly tyrant — and proceed to defeat Kang and return home to relish in the hard-won peace they now have. It’s all fairly standard for a Marvel movie, as it seems everything is hunky-dory once more.
But this time, the movie ends a bit differently. Midway through his happy-go-lucky narration, Scott begins to panic over whether he did the right thing. He beat the bad guy, as he and his allies have done before, but this bad guy seemed pretty adamant that there were worse versions of himself out there and that killing him would mean nothing could stop them from causing multiversal havoc.
Should Scott have trusted Kang? Should he have sacrificed other people and timelines for the greater good? Is it more heroic to sacrifice a million to save a billion, or to not sacrifice anyone, regardless of the consequences? These are all questions thatintroduces which will be revisited in greater detail in future Marvel movies. Given the next, it’s safe to say Kang was at least partially right about his variants.
