13 Things In The MCU That Make No Sense
11. That One Line In Ant-Man Which Creates A Plothole
Hank Pym was a scientist who discovered Pym Particles; a material that can reduce the size of any object or organism. Realising that being overexposed to Pym Particles can cause a person to become erratic, violent or mentally ill, he decided to stop taking them. When his old associate, Darren Cross desperately tries to replicate his work, Pym takes on Scott Lang as his protege and makes him the new Ant-Man.
So far, so good. However, at the end of the film, Darren Cross corners Scott and his friends and threatens to kill them. Hank warns Cross that he has gone insane because the Pym Particles are interfering with his mind, which is entirely impossible because Cross hasn’t figured out how to use the Pym Particles. He is trying to kill Hank and Scott BECAUSE he can’t duplicate the Pym Particles.
