A scene that ought to be in "The Avengers"

Unfortuately Pym won't be in The Avengers. They're still hanging on to him until Edgar Wright begins his Ant-Man film, whose script currently appears to be in it's third rewrite.
I really wanted a scene between Tony and Janet at their first meeting which ends with Tony being stung across the room landing on his backside.

I am not sure an Ant-Man movie can work.
I have an idea, but it is essentially a high budget 50s-style horror movie and a bit dark (essentially, Ant-Man versus Swarm) compared to the rest of the successful Marvel movies.
I do think, however, that a Wasp movie with Hank Pym as a major character (essentially the co-lead)would be great.
A bright young lab assistant, the rich daughter of the labs' major financier, is attracted to the brilliant and heroic but essentially mad (to the point of Multiple Disassociative Personality Disorder) Head of Research at a lab rivalling Stark Industries.
The first part of the movie plays like a murder mystery/love story: top researchers are being killed and their work stolen. It's clear Hank is both a suspect and a potential target. Janet wants to marry him, but he nobly refuses; he realizes he has problems. This is where the movie makes a gentle point about how women should deal with potentially abusive relationships (besides just running far, far away): Janet draws some very clear lines in the sand and sticks to them. She loves him, but is clearly ready to walk away if she has to. Hank is considering medication, but afraid of what that will do to his genius.
Swarm is the Big Bad (again). An aged Nazi scientist that Hank plays chess with (when he isn't playing with Magneto), he helps Hank with his experiments in cybernetic animal communication. He also steals the data on a previous experiment in transferring spider DNA to a human.
In one of Hank's bouts of madness, he is startled out of a suicidal rant by Janet ingesting a dose of the DNA stuff that has been prepared with Wasp DNA. She gets some headaches, wristaches and backaches but is otherwise fine: the DNA bonds happily with her own, but the amount is so dilute it doesn't DO anything (as the lab assistant, she knew the dose was too small to be toxic, and also knew that Hank didn't know that).
When Janet learns of Swarm's plans to become immortal by transferring his consciousness into a swarm of bees (and using the DNA transfer process to make humans subservient hosts as well) he traps her in an supercollider during an experiment intended to discover new particles. She ends up shrunk (and naked; got to have some 'nude-but-too-small-to see-anything/peekaboo Fanservice).
At insect size, she realizes she has antennae, stingers (that shoot out of her wrists like little toxic crossbow bolts) and wings. You get some mild body horror and humor here "You turned me into a fairy!"
He manages to figure how to reverse the shrinking, and shrinks/unshrinks himself to prove to Janet it works.
Swarm dies, but has managed to transfer his consciousness already.
Janet is fitted with a costume made of Unstable Molecules and has a montage of various costumes.
Swarm still needs the DNA stuff to be able to control humans, however, so he attacks the lab to get it, (after attacking other nearby hives to add them to his colony in some cool CGI scenes that scare local humans) leading to some cool 'scientists versus bugs/barricading the lab' scenes.
Janet has some cool scenes learning to use her powers, and heroically saves a number of coworkers. Ultimately, she destroys the DNA serum, making herself his only viable target, and leads him out into the desert for a final confrontation she clearly cannot win.
Cue a giant-sized Hank stomping on a man-sized Swarm.
Giant Hank nearly goes on a nearly Hulk-like rampage/power trip when confronted by the military vehicles that have shown up to investigate the shenanigans at the lab. After a short Giant Man vs Wasp "fight" scene, she talks him down and gets him to agree to get some therapy, and they kiss.
Roll credits.
Obligatory cameo by the Avengers, showing up late to the 'stomp Giant Man' party.
Cut to black.

Still, I just want them to use the music from my Signature 
This is a song about a super hero named Tony. Its called Tony's theme.

I will be disappointed if Captain America doesn't surprise the **** out of everyone at some point by using the hammer. Whether as a throw-away gag, "What, you can't lift that, Tony? It doesn't look that heavy to me." or as a combo attack--IE Iron Man launching Cap who is wielding Mjolnir.
There are no words for what this community, and the friends I have made here mean to me. Please know that I care for all of you, yes, even you. If you Twitter, I'm MrThan. If you're Unleashed, I'm dumps. I'll try and get registered on the Titan Forums as well. Peace, and thanks for the best nine years anyone could ever ask for.

Probably more like: Thor is down, and Cap has lost his shield, so he gropes around for the nearest available weapon he can use to defend himself - which just happens to be this big honkin' hammer..|

DR. PYM: Mister Stark, it's too dangerous. You shouldn't go yourself; just let JARVIS run the suit. You know he can do it.
STARK: What, and miss all the fun? Besides, JARVIS isn't a 'he'. He's an 'it'. He may be a better conversationalist than, say, you are, but he's not really sentient. Nobody can make a sentient machine yet.
PYM: (mostly to himself) I'm sure there's a way.
STARK: (claps Pym on the shoulder) Well, Buddy, you ever figure out how to make a machine that has fun, gets mad, and chases women, you let me know. I'll make you a rich man.
PYM: You'll be the first to know, sir.
