Marvel VFX Artists Admit ‘Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania’ Looks Awful, Reveal Studio Shifted “All The Money And All The Best Resources” To ‘Wakanda Forever’

After taking the risk to invest their time and money in catching the latest entry into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, more than a fair share of audience members found themselves put off by the consistent and noticeable lack of quality present throughout the entirety of Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania – including some of the very VFX artists who worked on the film.

From an overall aesthetic that looks more reminiscent of Spy Kids than a multi-billion dollar film franchise to the revival of Darren Cross as a ‘Humpty Dumpty’-esque version of MODOK, Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania is plagued with questionable CGI (a shot of MODOK’s bare bottom has been found to be so absurd in both concept and execution that it’s already on its way into the annals of meme history).

And as many already know, whether through social media or by catching Marvel’s latest outings themselves, this is not the first time in recent years that audiences have been put off by the poor visual quality of the studio’s efforts.

In particular, Black Widow, She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, and Thor: Love and Thunder all left audiences baffled with their abysmal CGI quality.

Sadly for the few fans who still hold out hope for the franchise’s future, it seems that things will not be getting any better in the foreseeable future.

According to some of the very same VFX artists who worked on Ant-Man’s latest adventure, the film’s lacking CGI was not the result of their teams’ skills and dedication, but rather Marvel’s reluctance to actually invest any of their profits back into their product.
