Fantastic Four reboot

[Niltusk]

Now that Fox is under a new regime with Tom Rothman leaving, they haven't produced a bad superhero film yet. He played a major part in the originals sucking so bad.

Since hes left they've done... DofP? They still had X1, X2, and First Class with him. Whatever it takes to make you feel all warm and cuddly I guess.

 

[Chapter 2099]

I'm ready for another reboot.

I have to give this one a chance first before I say that.

The Wolverine too but you're right I thought he left before First Class was in production.

looks decent, i'll pay money to watch it.

 

[Uncanny Web-Slinger]

Made by Marvel

The best thing about the tone of this film is that Marvel will have it easy to re-establish a fun GotG-ish vibe when they re-re-boot FF.

 

[GasparZizou]

Most awesomest movie ever.

 

[YankeesFanboy]

The Cabin in the Woods was pretty sweet.

Yup, too bad most of us may not live long enough to see it.

It'll be my treat. Once I get those statues you wanted to send me, I'll send you a ticket.

That too.

Hope they got it right enough with this that they pull out another dominant movie and establish this as the F4 movie. I could laundry list the things that have worried me that I've heard/read, but the trailer looked good and definitely has me wanting to see more.

 

[Sachiel]

We already have Marvel Studios' Fantastic Four... the first two movies by FOX!

They're fun, colorful, lighthearted, and down right hilarious!

You just have to imagine Galactus being a giant purple humanoid instead of a cloud and Silver Surfer as Iron Man and it will all come together.

Oh, and ignore how much Johnny Storm looks like Steve Rogers.

 

[CallMeTheDoctor]

That interview about the tone seriously shadows what Snyder said about loneliness being Hopeman's weakness...

 

[Chapter 2099]

I'm reading about possible F4/X-Men movie crossovers!!!

 

[Uncanny Web-Slinger]

I reckon they'll just keep the door open for that but it'll depend on how this and the sequel do

Oh, for sho. But it would be pretty darn cool. I think they could pull it off. I'd love to see it do well.

I'm hoping Fox develops a Silver Surfer movie next. It makes more sense to give him his own movie over a character like Gambit.

With the FF, X-Men and spinoffs, and Silver Surfer, Fox would have a nice little universe of their own.

I wish they had the rights to Namor, he fits perfectly into the FF and X-Men universe.

That would be a pretty cool movie (SS). I'd definitely be down for that.

Problem is that he's pretty damn limited in terms of the comic storylines he can have, given that Fox only has X-Men and FF-specific characters to work with. I'm assuming Mephisto is with Marvel Studios, certainly most of the other "cosmic" characters are. You could still make a good, original film of course. And I agree that obscenely powerful cosmic creature who can fly around in space makes for a more interesting potential movie than lame Louisiana stereotype guy.

I think the X-Men franchise has plenty enough to do without needing to worry about a cross-over gimmick. But if they want to do it, I'm for it as long as it works. It would be a lot more interesting if they took a more appropriate tone with the FF though, as the media darling explorers of the FF could then have a more interesting mix with the ever-hated, frequently dark, and sometimes pessimistic tone of the X-Men. Two groups with totally different motivations and experiences with the public, the government, their villains, etc. The way things look so far though, the FF could easily fit in as just another handful of X-Men.
