In RUBY SPARKS, Paul Dano (THERE WILL BE BLOOD, LOOPER) is a struggling author, under the trap of writer's block and decides to find romance
by creating a
female character, that he believes will love him and then — somehow — he
turns her into reality.
Ant - Man underscores just how much Marvel has struggled with its women
characters (with its
female lead, played
by Evangeline Lilly, desperately wanting to join the action and being stopped
by men at every
turn), and its villain is one of the worst in the Marvel canon, which is saying something.
