Ant-Man – Giant Man

While Marvel can be accused of sticking to a formula (who wouldn’t do that, really), it still surprises the audiences with numerous awesome moments. Captain America: Civil War has plenty of them – and the Ant-Man scene towers above almost all of them.
Of course, while everybody wanted to see the minuscule superhero riding Hawkeye’s arrow, the surprise came when he transformed into Giant Man. And it all worked so well because of the elements combined in this reveal: the surprise of the combatants, the quips, Spider-Man’s Star Wars resolve, and so on.
But, mostly, it worked because of Paul Rudd. Because of his comedic timing, nobody was more surprised by Giant Man’s appearance than Ant-Man himself.
Sure, there was a formula to Captain America: Civil War, and the plot did seem to mirror that of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. But the lighthearted moments such as this one made all the difference.
