If we had to wait to cast first impressions/judgements then they were wouldn't be first impressions would they

You don't have to wait until we see something, we judge something in the moment until we get a better look at it then options could/will change.

For now, kicking Edgar Wright out for a director who has not proved himself with any of his previous films, especially for a film like Ant Man is silly and can easily be judged because it's such a horrible decision.

It seems like he was

1) Cheap

2) Their last option

3) All they had

Whaaaaa...you really think he was chosen in the past through long convosations

If he was a good choice for them they would of brought him in AS SOON as Edgar left, it wasn't until the last minute when all the other directors on their "list" didn't want to do it or had other commitments. So yeah with the state Ant Man has been in latley he was their best choice out of a bad situation. No way they would of wanted him to do this but they don't seem to have a choice with it supposed to shoot soon.

"Though I suspect you'll point out something that you consider to be failures"

And this bothers you how. Why do you always care so much what other people think. It's an opinion, I don't hassle you for most of the stuff you write...do I.

" and large his body of work is comedy "

And Peyton is all comedy aswell, only difference is Edgar Wright has done better, more well received films. The only one Peyton has really done which got great reviews was Yes Man.
