Fantastic Four

Christ another reboot?

There is so much good old Speculative Fiction out there still could be made into good movies.

If they are going to remake something I still wish someone would do Starship Troopers right.

But there have been so many mech movies now it's not worth it I suppose.

Was a lost opportunity att, that was wasted.

It's funny you mention that. I guess piracy was never the issue after all. They were just making the wrong movies. Record breaker after record breaker in the last few years. :whiste:

Why make only 1 billion when you can kill piracy and make 1.4 billion?

:whiste:

 

[MongGrel]

Crap, seriously, someone make John Varleys Titan, Wizard, Demon books into a trilogy, or any Cordwainer Smiths (Linebarger) books into movies.

Hell, as far as the lame Horror movies these days, no one has really done a lot of Lovecraft or Poe really right.

I swear Fox is either trolling the whole internet, or worse someone didn't get "You know those insanely popular and huge cash cow Marvel movies? Yeah, do the opposite of that... and make sure you shit on whatever the IP held holy" was a joke.

 

[Captante]

Looks really lame ... 0% chance I'd pay to see that mess in a theater.

2nd trailer looks okay to me. a little less cartoonish than the first F4 movies.

This thread got me to thinking....so I went looking and found this:

I had completely forgotten about the original

I actually really liked the first 2 F4 movies as well. This one does not look good.

Same here.

:whiste:

I know, right. If you want that $3 billion island, you're going to have to make three movies anyway.

 

[Leyawiin]

Its only been ten years since the last (eight since the sequel) and I actually liked that cast (good actors). This one sucks and I don't need to see it to know.

 

[DAPUNISHER]

When even the trailer is boring, I am out.

Even when I was 10 I thought the FF were lame.

They need to stop giving origin stories on many characters; yeah even Punisher. Just drop them in the way the are going to do Spiderman. If something really needs to be explained about their background, do the montage or flashback thing that takes a few minutes.

 

[Newell Steamer]

Looks much better than that Chiklis / Alba crap.

 

[Mayne]

It's Clobbering time

 

[Schmide]

The more I see this crap the more I say. This is an effects company looking for a story. Effects and Music are there to complement the movie not distract from it.

 

[Muadib]

I'm going to see Antman. If I like it, I will see this FF.

 

[thebestMAX]

Uhmmmm, no. Looks slow and dull. Ill wait for it on TV.

I cant stand Kate Mara in films for some reason. Was amused with what happened to her in House of Cards.

 

[ImpulsE69]

I've been doing research on the old failed Superman Lives movie, (there's a good documentary out about it) and from what I could tell the big wigs in charge of that movie HATE comics, and know jack shit about the source material and could care less about it or the fans of it.

That is what looks like happened here.

 

[SP33Demon]

caitlyn jenner wants to see it

 

[yinan]

Looks much better than that Chiklis / Alba crap.

There is never anything wrong with seeing more Jessica Alba.

 

[KMFJD]

There is never anything wrong with seeing more Jessica Alba.

She can't act though....

 

[smackababy]

Strangely enough, Michael B Jordan is the only thing I don't mind about this movie. Literally, everything else bothers me. Can we get these movies boycotted so Marvel can take over them?

Also, the Fantastic 4 are pretty much the worst team of heroes. They are terrible and can't do shit. That is until Galactus shows up and they are the only ones who can stop him.

 

[zinfamous]

Same here.

The first one just...just...eh.

For the second one: remove the stupid dance number, replace Alba, Dr Doom (quite possibly the single worst casting for any villain, ever), and Reed--well Groufauld was OK, I mean it certainly looks the part--maybe re-write his dialogue and portray him a bit more seriously--less of a naive clown with a lot of "Oh, I'm a nerd!" moments.

Basically, keep Silver Surfer and trash the rest. Oh yea, replace the "cloud Galactus" with a real cosmic entity Galactus.
