So Ant-Man and the Wasp finally was released in Ireland/UK and I got to see it and enjoyed it. One thing that I guess I should have expected but was disappointed by was the lack of Michelle Pfeiffer as Janet in the film that the whole movie was about getting her back. When she did appear like the opening and in the last act I thought she did well she embodied that fun playful but also kind person who loved being a superhero that I saw in Avengers EMH that translated from the comics. I admitedly haven't read Janet in the comics but I want to go back at some point because she seems like a character I'd like. The thing I'm trying to piece together though is the flashback stuff mainly when do Hank and Janet become agents working for S.H.I.E.L.D.? If I were to guess they'd be born in the late 40s to early 50s respectively as not every character matches their actors' age especially with them since Michelle Pfeiffer is about 14 years younger than Douglas. You expect maybe the 1960s as homage to when they first appeared in comics and that's when James Bond was popular and the height of the Cold War or whatever but I think they'd be too young still. Given we know they are there by the 80s with them stopping the missile in 1987 and Hank resigns in 1989 then I'm guessing they join in the 70s? Then there's the stuff regarding Elihas Starr and Bill and Ava does that happen after Janet is lost? I guess Starr is fired sometime in the 80s and then maybe continues his research into the 90s and is killed and that's when Bill shows up. Honestly if we got a movie about Hank and Janet a lot of this stuff would be cleared up more. I mostly think about this stuff because I'm actually interested in the prequel MCU idea because it's completely unmarked territorty they've barely scratched the surface of that's far removed from modern day stuff. Obviously Captain America TFA is the beginning of it because it has too and then Agent Carter continues where that leaves off but it was cut too short. After those Ant-Man flashbacks we have nothing until Captain Marvel and maybe Black Widow is possibly going to be there as well.

So if they were active in the 70s what missions did you think Hank and Janet did? Would you like to see more of them or a movie about other heroes back then like the Invaders/Pro-Avengers with Peggy and Howard as the leaders with Fury then being inspired by it to create the Avengers? I'd be down for a Hank and Janet prequel and an Avengers Cold War film and Fantastic Four set in the 60s and a S.H.I.E.L.D. film centering on Peggy and Howard or Nick Fury or all three being at the centre of it. Or even if you wanted to go further what would other cosmic characters like Stakarr and Yondu and their Guardians team or Asgardians be doing? I'd have been curious to see someone from Asgard like Sif actually appear in Agent Carter again if it continued and they don't know it's their first encounter with Asgard.
