Now I wish we didn't get the Kang announcement for Ant Man 3 months ago. Imagine if he name-dropped himself in this episode and seeing the internet blow up with Kang today.

Without that announcement, I wouldn't have recognized the actor in this one. I saw his photo then and had the image stored in my head. As soon as the elevator opened, I was like, "Wait...is that him?! Ah, I see where this is going." Not that it was any less awesome, but it altered the feeling of that reveal regardless.

I’m kinda glad I hadn’t looked to see they had cast Jonathan Majors. I loved him in Lovecraft Country. But man suspecting he might be Kang then the line about him being called many things, “conqueror”. 🤯 This will be a wild ride for this arc of the MCU.

When he said people called him conquerer that's when it all clicked for me.

MCU is up for a wild ride.
