So... did you know that they're making a Green Lantern movie?  I didn't until this morning -- or rather, I didn't know the project had not only been greenlighted, it was also well into its shooting schedule.
Anyway I found all this out when I stumbled upon this article discussing how they're doing the GL costume -- which is, apparently, almost entirely via CGI.  To paraphrase someone quoted in it, GL's costume has to look alien, so they're eschewing the spandex and the molded rubber, and going for something apparently that's supposed to be eye-poppingly different.  If it's what they're hoping for, I might see this movie just to see the costume.

Expect closeups of Ms. Marvels feet and for Ant Man to get capped in the head at the end of the 4th act.

Uh... I think you have Whedon confused with Tarintino.
With Whedon at he helm expect Ms Marvel to be played by a petite ballerina and for Ant Man and the Wasp to have a loving relationship that will be horribly destroyed in the third act.

As someone who absolutely HATED Joss's run at Marvel, when he actually bothered to write his damn comics, this depresses me.

Also the last time Joss was brought in half way through production to completely rewrite a script we got Alien Resurrection.

...The Wasp.
She kicks ass and she's incredibly tiny.
That plus Joss Whedon is a very natural fit.
