The test footage at ComicCon was positive, but the people who saw it are the people who already know the character and would support it regardless. The question is how the "average moviegoer" would react to it.

Take Edgar Wright's last comic book movie, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World. The film's really popular among fans of the Scott Pilgrim comics and fans of Edgar Wright, and no one else saw it. I don't think Ant-Man's prospects are that low, but I could easily see it being one of the lowest grossing MCU films.
