Epic News: Edgar Wright leaves Ant-Man

By

     In some stunningly bad epic news Director Edgar Wright has dropped out of Marvel Studios Ant-Man film.  The man who brought us Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz, and The World's End will no longer direct Ant-Man's big screen debut.  This comes as a big shocker considering that this has been a passion project that Wright has been working on since 2006.  Marvel Studio's says they already have a replacement Director working on the film, but the studio won't say who yet.  This very bad news for the evolution of the Superhero film genre considering that Wright's version of Ant-Man sounded like it would be a very unique entry into the Marvel Cinematic Universe they way it looks like James Gunn's Guardians of the Galaxy will be later this Summer.  At multiple points Wright said that Ant-Man would be a heist film the way that Guardians of the Galaxy is going to be a space adventure film, now unfortunately the only thing we have had heisted is the chance to see an Epic Edgar Wright Ant-Man film!

Thanks to Variety for the scoop!

When we first learned that Director: David Gordon Green would be talking over the iconic Halloween franchise, my thoughts could best be described as skeptical at best.  How was the guy that brought us Pineapple Express going to bring Michael Myers home again? Also where did Danny McrBride fit it in? Would Blumhouse and Green do the un-thinkable by allowing McBride to dawn the mask, and having the world famous physical comedian wield who knows what as his weapon of choice? Find out the answer to these, and many other questions after the break in our Halloween review....
