Still I think there are a few writing problems, such as that one scene that feels like something from the beginning of a film about a serial killer. I still think that scene just make Cater look disturbed.

Having finally gotten to watch the pilot, I have no idea how you interpret things the way you do sometimes. Her friend is constantly being verbally abused and harassed by this frequent customer. Her friend can't do anything about it without being fired. So Carter, being the badass that she is, intimidates him to leave.

Oh and I saw the preview of Ant-Man and I now know why Edger Wright left.  It's because the studio decided to remove all personality and humor from a concept that only works if it has a sense of humor about it's self and turn it into a generic Batman clone.  This could have been a fun movie but now it's being played as completely dark melodrama without a hint of humor or lightness, as if this is the most serious thing ever put to film.  They have decided to go ultra dark and make their grimiest picture yet out of Ant-Man. I'm sorry but for me you can't go all dark and brooding when you are showing a man riding a fly, it just doesn't work and I bust out laughing.  It looks like a joyless slog that will just be repeating the beat of both The Dark Knight and Green lantern.  I think I will pass. This movie doesn't even look worth the dollar it would cost to rent it from redbox. Marvel could have had a good movie on their hands but they wanted to be like Batman and they killed it, too bad:(

Uh....what? Ant-Man is still clearly a comedy film. Hence Marvel's intense search for a comedy director to replace Wright. I will concede that the teaser failed at what it was attempting to do but it's still pretty clear what they were going for.

In that it's supposed to be a fake out. Where they build up all this brooding drama and then when it finally cuts to Paul Rudd it suddenly shifts gears and takes on a playful tone for the rest of it.

Instead, they decided to stick another montage in-between Rudd's two lines and it threw the whole thing out of whack.

Oh and that's an ant, not a fly. Hence the name. =P
