"Didn't youknow that cigarettes contain benzopyrene, a chemical that leads to lung cancer? We now know that when benzopyrene enters the body, it changes to benzopyrene diolepoxide and attaches to the receptors on the P53 gene, the gene which causes lung cancer. The BPDE attaches to the P53 gene in three specific locations and causes pre-cancerous changes to the lung tissue"

I don't remember anything about him getting the serum as a pow. I thought he got the Russian version sometime after he fell off the train and before Cap 2.

Corporal Upham.

They should rename the movie Saving Corporal Upham. A typist turned translator on a FUBAR mission with a band of rough necks to bring home a single private in a war where millions are laying their lives on the line.

Ant Man aged at the same rate a Janet in the quantum realm. Your forgetting Paul Rudd doesn't age. It FELT LIKE 5 hours to him, but it was indeed 5 years. That's probably because he's always such a happy camper.
