It was something in-between and at times odd. Someone gave me the bluray for free. I watched it once, and not again. Doesn't mean I wouldn't watch it again one day. Maybe.

But worth it to see Eddie Redmayne's Razzie-winning performance, where he bizarrely shouts roughly every third word or so. One reviewer (accurately) referred to his speaking cadence as "soft, soft, LOUD." Redmayne won the Worst Actor Razzie for this the same year he won the Best Actor Oscar for The Theory of Everything. Also, Mila Kunis's line, "I love dogs. I've always loved dogs." is...amazing. Larryw7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post TupennyConan Posted May 4, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted May 4, 2023 (edited) Folks like to label FF a family drama or even family comedy. The Invincibles is said to have beaten Marvel to the punch. This is only partially true, whether we can agree FF's a drama, comedy, adventure story, or all three. The Invincibles, a classic family yarn, didn't have Reed Richards & Ben Grimm. The core of the FF is the Reed-Ben tragedy. The Reed-Ben story is the FF story.

For me it's reminiscent of that movie Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets. By which I mean it looked great visually. They clearly spent money on it trying to make something dazzling. And then they forgot to make the story good. Not even the whole story, but there were just parts that were sooooooo dumb. And too many of those kill your movie. jimjum12 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fantastic Friendship Quote Had Victor Von Doom not walked out on Reed Richards and, instead, ended up rooming with him through college, there's no telling what turn their respective histories might have taken. (Assuming the college was still in one piece by the time they graduated.) Yet as we know, Ben Grimm stepped in to take his place--and one of the great partnerships and friendships of comics history was born. Earlier, we touched on the relationship between these two men in their adventures in the Fantastic Four. For me, their history has always been one of the things that anchors the team, maybe even more than the feeling of family that the four share as a whole. Perhaps I feel that way because their friendship seemed unlikely to form deeper ties and sustain itself--the egghead science major and the football star, relating to each other from virtually two different worlds. Yet each found something in the other that drew their interest. For Reed, Ben Grimm was this larger than life figure that he cheered on in the stadium and whose company and background were so different from the formal structure of his education; while for Ben, Reed's intellect, while impressive, was something Ben felt Reed needed to put in perspective: TupennyConan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lordbyroncomics Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 Not that they need my input, but I think the Fantastic Four would work best if: - it's set in the 1960s'. It would allow them to establish the FF as having status without contradicting the current timeline in the MCU, along with adding to the storytelling and origin motivations. Post-credit scene shows them ending up in the present. Done. - Take the 'Spider-Man: Homecoming' approach and just start with the team established. No origin story. Have them be well known entities, the origin can be alluded to and briefly retold in passing, like on a television presentation or something.

The powers that be have a tradition of ruining this franchise, sparing no expense and resorting to any travesties to do so. Perhaps they will fail, which they are good at, and the film will accidentally turn out nice.
