Thanks to the iconic mythology of the comics it's adapting, Marvel movies are practically overstuffed with epic moments. Every new character introduction feels like the coolest thing possible to fans of the comic books, but its perhaps their deft handling of both action and humour that has set them apart from other studios. The train fight between Ant-Man and Yellowjacket completely encompasses this, showcasing a simultaneously thrilling action sequence and the bitingly funny premise behind it. To come up with unique settings to stage fights in is a very difficult task, but putting one inside a childs train set is something only Ant-Man could have pulled off. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_os80b2K8_s The perfect moment of the scene comes as Thomas the Tank Engine is about to crash into Yellowjacket, he raises his hands in fear and the music swells... only to pull back and have the tiny, unthreatening toy harmlessly flop off the tracks. Theres a reason they kept showcasing that moment in trailers, its because it completely sold the tone and execution of the film in a singular moment.
