Shocker: Marvel has done it again!

"Ant-Man and the Wasp" is on the smaller side of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, both literally and figuratively. It's not an "Avengers" movie, it's the sequel to one of the light, fun standalones. The film previewed over the weekend for lucky critics and fans, and they emphasized the "fun" factor, with some critics saying it's an improvement on "Ant-Man."

Obviously we all know to stay to the end of a Marvel movie these days, for post-credits teases on what's ahead. "Ant-Man 2" starts after "Captain America: Civil War," and the movie explains its connection to the "Avengers: Infinity War" timeline. Since the next two movies after "Ant-Man and the Wasp" are "Captain Marvel" and "Avengers 4," fans are looking for major hints.

Also Marvel Studios boss Kevin Feige said "Ant-Man and the Wasp" connects directly to "Avengers 4."

So MCU fans can't just skip this one. (But they also shouldn't pirate it; don't piss off Evangeline Lilly!)

Some of the early reactions teased the post-credits scene(s), along with the humor, action, and a great Michael Peña gag:


"Ant-Man and the Wasp" opens in the U.S on July 6.
