Andrew: There is one last technology thing in Ant-Man we need to talk about.

Diana: Is it the goo gun?

Andrew: It’s the goo gun.

Diana: Oh boy.

Andrew: So the villain has this shrinking gun that turns that guy in the bathroom to a tiny pile of goo because the technology doesn’t work yet and he’s like, oh no it didn’t miniaturize the guy we still gotta work out the kinks and they never talk about the fact that he just invented the world’s most powerful gun, by far!

Meg: Yesss!

Diana: This is the deadliest piece of machinery ever! If you shoot someone with it, literally anywhere on their body, they shrink, explode and die and there’s no body. You could kill the Hulk with that!

Andrew: He could kill any Avenger with one shot, with no evidence, but instead he’s like, it doesn’t work, I really want it to make a little dude!

Diana: Do you know how much more Hydra would want that super gun than they would want tiny soldiers? They would buy a million of those.

Meg: You could kill the entire Avengers team and then wipe them up with a napkin.

Diana: Honestly, I think goo gun could have defeated Thanos. It’s the greatest technology ever created in terms of killing people and it never comes up again.
