HarveySwick Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 One positive thing about this is that it could be SO bad, that Fox really loses money and let's the rights revert. Additionally, maybe prices for FF #5 will drop and I can upgrade my copy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heresy Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 It's like this whole movie is a plot by Fox to make people think the first two didn't really suck that bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marvelcollector Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 So... I'm starting to think Fox basically just took some movie they were working on and slapped "fantastic four" on it to comply with the Marvel contract and make a FF movie every few years in order to retain the rights. Nothing about this movie screams FF. Or even whispers it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vexsus Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Well I guess for once we will actually get to see the strength of the actual comic book fans dollar against the general public at the movie theater. Will the complete lack of comics fans revenue be enough to topple this monstrosity and let Marvel have the rights? We can only hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cloud cloddie Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 its like they decided to create the story using mad libs. . That's the best tag line for this movie yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wall-Crawler Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 (edited) I'm usually a "wait and see" how it turns out before I pass judgement but every time I hear anything about this movie it makes me want to And what does this even mean... In regards to how Victor Domashev fits into the overall picture, Kebbell explained, “Yeah, it was cool man. Josh, the whole deal, the lo-fi way he did it, the ultra-real. It was just nice to do that. It was nice to be feeling like we had to come to terms with what was given by this incident.” Yes, because the FF are "lo-fi" and "ultra real" - What made the Fantastic Four work, to me as a casual fan of the FF, was/is in enjoying the unreal/fantastic elements...I'm just waiting for one of them to say it is "dark and gritty"...

Chip Cataldo Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Wow. This ruined my day, and I was having a great day. With each nugget that's released another piece of my heart gets ripped out. Peace, Chip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prez Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 This just in: Galactus makes an appearance in the movie. Galactus is a short older man with a big belly who flips burgers at "Planetary Burger". He provides comedy relief as the FF regularly meet for coffee at the joint while they discuss the day's events. Galactus eats the restaurant's signature "Earth Burger" through the day as the server ("Norrin") takes customers orders. Eventually the FF try to get Galactus to stop eating earth burgers so he doesn't get fired. Reed eventually succeeds by using the salt shaker (the ultimate nullifier) on the burgers to make them too salty, as Galactus tries to keep his blood pressure in check to some extent. I say give it a chance, sounds somewhat faithful to the comic. A Stan Lee masterpiece reimagined by the internet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will the complete lack of comics fans revenue be enough to topple this monstrosity and let Marvel have the rights? That is the billion dollar question right there.

Bet you get a scripting credit as this sounds like the direction this creative team is going. - Don't have the actors read the comics, as that would confuse them. - Don't wear the uniforms, as that would confuse movie-goers. - Don't have Doom be Doom - he's a deadly social media wizard instead. What a bummer this is sounding to be. But watch. H.E.R.B.I.E. the Robot will show up, as Trank liked him as a kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
