Edgar Wright Says Watching ANT-MAN Is Like "Watching Your Ex-Girlfriend Have Sex"

Edgar Wright has moved on since he parted ways with Marvel over Ant-Man, but that doesn't mean the sting isn't still there. The director recently spoke to Uproxx about Baby Driver and when asked if he had seen the superhero film, he said the following: 

Do you want to watch your ex-girlfriend have sex?” Like, 'No, I’m good.' The closest I came to it was that somebody sitting near me on a flight was watching it. And when I saw that the person sitting next to me was going to watch the movie, I thought, hmm, maybe I’m going to do some work on my laptop.

While he may never see the film, Wright is also quick to say that the last person you'll hear speak ill of the film is him:

I’ll never be pressed into kind of bad-mouthing it, because the truth of the matter is my friends are in it. Paul Rudd is a friend of mine and we’re still very good friends. And in fact, I saw him in New York the other week and we had dinner and it was the first time we’d had a chance to properly sit down since that whole thing. And the one thing I’ll say about that movie is I’m pleased that I got a writing credit on it, because it sort of makes up for having worked on the script for like eight years. Two is that I got my friend, Paul, a part in a major film. And I did say to Paul – he knows I haven’t seen it – I said, “You know, I haven’t seen the movie, and I will never watch it. I did see you in Civil War, and you were the funniest bit.”

So you got kicked off of a film, but you're now besties with Paul Rudd...I'd say it's a fair trade off right? Plus, Baby Driver is an awesome film so let's hope Wright doesn't dwell on what could have been his whole life.
