yep.

i don't want folks to think that i didn't enjoy myself in Ultron or anything, because i did.
And its probably not fair to compare these two movies either because Ultron is a different kind of flick really, with a much larger scope than Ant Man....(Ultron had a WHOLE LOT of stuff going on plot wise, tie-in-wise etc, with a WHOLE LOT of characters to squeeze & cram into essentially the same amount of time)...so when you think about it...theres almost no way to avoid the loss of at least some of the 'heart & soul' in that scenario....

and i think this Ant Man movie's small scope and singular focus allowed the essence and characters to be fleshed out in a way that lets the viewers get to know (and thus enjoy) even the SECOND & THIRD level supporting characters more. The entire cast had reasons, and moments. I had JUST as much fun with Langs sidekicks as i did with the main characters. I want THEM back in the next Ant movie as much as i want Ant man back. thats part of what helps make this movie feel 'alive'...characters have enough time to breath and be realized and fleshed out enough for us to have something 'real' to hold onto...

Marvel take note...with Daredevil and AntMan, i think you've got the right mindset again....keep the focus on just TELLING GOOD STORIES, and creating real believable CHARACTERS that are true to themselves....all the rest will fall into place....(that 'universe building' thing that you like to do should just be a 'nice to have' here and there but only where & when it makes sense. PLEASE don't let that tendency to want to 'connect everything to everything else in the M.C. universe' keep you from telling damn good 'one off, self contained' stories that dont directly tie into the 'universal story arch'...sometimes those one off stories are the cream of the crop.

for me the most magical memorable Xfiles episodes were the one-offs that didn't directly tie into their bigger story arch. (and their bigger overall story arch became so over-bloated and convoluted that i stopped caring about it after a while, because since they were focusing on that overarching storyline it seemed to me that they started to lose their ability to tell a good singularly focused story)...so i eventually tapped out....just saying....
