[QUOTE=RockyHorror;5151451]Yes and he's a completely different character than Thanos. But in Ant Man, he serves the same purpose as Ronan. He doesn't come close to serving the same purpose as Thanos.
Like I said before, Kang is a way to bring scale to the movie without substance to the MCU.[/QUOTE]
If that's really how they're going to use him, which it's probably too early to tell either way, than what a waste of a character it would be.

Kang allegedly being the main villain and pitted against Ant-Man and the Wasp is already a waste of a character even before i have seen the movie. Nothing Peyton Reed has done in the MCU will ever convince me that he can do anything that is interesting

I liked how he managed to create a little corner in the MCU for Ant-Man and giving the character his own "lore". Who would have done that for a character like Ant-man?

And let's face it. Being the main villain in Ant Man is more than that character deserves on the big screen.

Ant-Man sometimes feels more like Spider-Man than MCU Spider-Man does.

I don't blame anybody for not liking Kang. His presence alone could potentially make a story needlessly contrived. Nothing is ever simple when he's involved.

Admittedly there was a lot of time travel headache in [I]Endgame...

Nah he's fine. In fact I think the first avengers comic I ever read was Kang's first appearance.
But as an Avengers-level threat, let alone a Thanos-level threat, he's more than a little contrived. He'll do very well as an Ant Man foe, however.

I don't think he really fits Ant-Man thematically or conceptually. A time travelling conqueror seems like a bigger fit for Earth's Mightiest Heroes.

He'll probably be like Thanos in Guardians. He send a top thug to deal with the guy who broke into his realm, and things go from there

I just want MODOK.
He'd be perfect for Ant-Man.

Would he? I dunno, most of the humor would come from mocking his disfigurement, and that's kinda frowned on these days

The absurdity of a floating head writes itself. No need to mock.
