Movies FANTASTIC FOUR [2015] Thread v.2 (Dragonlord's Review)

Nope, that would be somewhat funny and joyful. The catchphrase needs a dark, miserable origin.

Maybe that's what someone said to him before burning his dog alive.

So was the Human Torch's slogan "Flame on!" what his dad shouted announcing he's coming out of the closet?

Nah but the Invisible Girl did the John Cena hand-on-face gesture and shouted, "You can't see me!"

Waiting is getting a sequel?

That was supposed to be the cover shot of 2009s Still Waiting. The sequel to Waiting.

I call bullshit. You are a filthy liar.

I thought the original story said he left because the F4 project went on too long, then again they were probably covering up for what was really going on behind closed doors and on set

IIRC, people were just assuming he wouldn't be able to do it because of scheduling conflicts with the Fant4stic sequel.

Hey, take a chill pill.

:wink:

Did you just....make an ice pun?

Spoiler

FANTASTIC FOUR Reboot Is Rated Even Lower Than Original

Remember how much fun you used to poke at Tim Story’s goofy Fantastic Four film from 2005? Well, it doesn’t seem so bad these days, now does it? As Josh Trank’s rebooted Fantastic Four film endures one gut-punch after the next from critics, its Rotten Tomatoes score has officially dipped below the original’s (but not the original original…that would be bad). While Story’s Fantastic Four sits at a rancid 27% Rotten score, Trank’s reboot is trapped at an irredeemable 9%.

There’s still the slight chance that a few positive reviews could hit over Fantastic Four’s opening weekend and hoist its score up, but its fate seems Doomed.

While Rotten Tomatoes' official consensus for the 2005 Fantastic Four reads, “Marred by goofy attempts at wit, subpar acting, and bland storytelling, Fantastic Four is a mediocre attempt to bring Marvel's oldest hero team to the big screen,” its takeaway for this year’s is even less forgiving, reading “Dull and downbeat, this Fantastic Four proves a woefully misguided attempt to translate a classic comic series without the humor, joy, or colorful thrills that made it great.”

Fox's FANTASTIC FOUR and X-MEN Exist in Parallel Universes

The possibility of a Fantastic Four and X-Men movie crossover may have just flamed out. While many thought that it was just a matter of time before Fox’s two Marvel Comics properties crossed over, Fantastic Four producers Simon Kinberg and Hutch Parker just complicated the matter. According to the two, the X-Men and Fantastic Four operate in different realities.

"They exist in parallel universes," Kinberg and Parker told The New York Daily News. "The Fantastic 4 live in a world without mutants. And the X-Men live in a world without the Fantastic 4."

That’s a pretty big contradiction from earlier reports, which seemingly confirmed that the live-action X-Men and Fantastic Four lived in the same universe—much like Marvel’s Avengers characters—and could potentially meet in the same film. In fact, X-Men director Bryan Singer said last month that such a crossover was definitely "in play."

Kinberg and Parker, however, seem to have different thoughts. "Crossing them over would be challenging," said Kinberg and Parker, "but we sure would love to see all those actors together, the way we had them on stage at (San Diego) Comic Con."

i am thinking this is gonna bomb. trailers seem uninspiring, the actors, at least for a very casual movie goer like me seem completely unknown and dont look like stars. why would you do a reboot this soon after an original who at least had stars in it? seems more like a tv movie to me

lol god damn. I was even a bit hopeful this wouldn't be complete shit. But when guys like Jeremy Jahns are saying the Jessica Alba Fantastic Fours are better then this turd that's saying something.

 

[BornOnMonday]

It's official, this movie is a failure and any hope of a Fox Marvel universe just died like a 80s pro wrestler
