Fantastic Four reboot

[nexus]

Those retro Captain America posters are absolutely fantastic, even if they are in a Fantastic Four thread. But I agree they don't make sense for trying to market to modern moviegoers. The nods to the 40s/50s and 70s posters would be lost on 99% of the audience.

Why does Evans look like Harrison Ford in that first one Gaspar posted?

Yeah, these are both great - I swapped the real ones for these as my Plex movie posters immediately.

I love TWS's title being in quotation marks. It really sells the poster's vibe.

I wonder if it was a nod to one of the (many) classic Redford films:

This thread is funny, is this movie even coming out or being released anymore, or is it just Avengers and that's it....lol

 

[karamazov80]

They cancelled it, because Avengers.

It does sound that way.

I'm actually looking forward to this one, it may not do that well cause of the Avengers train taking its steam, but think it'll be a fun flick to watch.

F4 will make more money than The Avengers!!!

A lot more!

 

[GeneralZodLives]

Unfortunately, a movie can be a piece of **** and still make a ton of money, as evidenced by the Transformers movie franchise.

Agreed and agreed.

I don't think this movie will suck. I suspect it will be way, way better than the Transformers movies. But ironically, it may end up doing the source less justice than the Bay films do for G1 Transformers.

I'm not 100% sure the movie will be "fun," though, based on what we've seen thus far. Could be among the least fun comic movies in years.

I wonder if it was a nod to one of the (many) classic Redford films:

While "All the President's Men" also came from the same era Paolo Rivera stated that the most direct influence for his Winter Soldier poster was the one for The Man with the Golden Gun:

It's painful to me that Marvel went so far as to commission Rivera to paint those two Cap posters and then they don't release them as official one-sheets. I'm almost afraid that since Marvel and Lucasfilm are both Disney that they'll commission Struzan to do art for The Force Awakens...and then give those prints to the crew while we get some photoshop monstrosity like we saw in theaters when Phantom Menace 3D was released.

*shudder*

Avengers has the hype and following. This will have the quality storytelling

And you know this becaaaaaaaause... OH RIGHT, you don't.
What you SHOULD know is that being an apologist just for the sake of it is a very pathetic thing.

Looks great imo

And you know this becaaaaaaaause... OH RIGHT, you don't.

Educated guess.

Directors last movie was good, actors are all good, writers last movie was good. All that indicates it will be okay at worst, it could be bad but it has more suggesting good than bad going for it

I consider hating something before seeing it far more pathetic.

 

[EVILFACE]

The Dark Knight Rises looked great too!

He knows this because Interstellar trailer + the same damn beam of light going up into the sky that we've seen in every summer blockbuster since TF: Dark of the Moon (oh yeah, even Avengers) = quality storytelling.

 

[RIDDICK]

CGI'd Michael Chiklis looks fine. Maybe a bit too video-game-ish.

because Interstellar trailer + the same damn beam of light going up into the sky that we've seen in every summer blockbuster since Dark of the Moon (even Avengers) = quality storytelling.

it's also funny because Intreztillor was a mess in terms of writing and storytelling.

its weird how Hollywood does stuff like that. Also how they have movies that are essentialy the same come out the same year every now and then like Deep Impact and Armageddon
