I see the resemblance.

So they are bringing Galactus into this one. I wonder if this will be the pivot away from Kang and he is going to start showing up in a lot of other movies/TV.

Probably unrealistic, but I hope Galactus isn't the antagonist for this film, but is just someone who appears at the end and is teased for the next film. Feels like he's too major to use for a first film which also needs to set up the heroes.

I thought it was going to be Dr. Doom.

Natasha Lyonne has reportedly joined the cast of The Fantastic Four.

I read that RDJ as Doom will appear here before being in Doomsday.

That is what I read too.

At most it'll be an end credit scene.

Your history is way off. A lot of quite awful people absolutely lost their minds over a Black Heimdall. It was a precursor to a great deal of what we’re suffering through now.

Your incorrect memory of the world is sad.

As a movies-only Marvel fan, The Fantastic Four are a D-minus IP in my mind.

And Silver Surfer is an F.

Vague memories of crap movies.

If next year’s movie is great, I’ll be thrilled because I love most of the MCU and hope it gets its mojo back.

16 years ago, I thought “Who cares about Iron Man?” And then had an awesome time at the movie theatre that sparked an incredible cinematic journey.

I get it, but I truly think the Fantastic Four are a very underrated property that when executed well can be a massive crowd pleasure. I'd even say that in general the "vibe" of the FF as a squabbling family is totally in the wheelhouse for Disney.

But of course implementation is key. I'm mostly nervous about how they are going to connect this to the rest of the MCU since I think it would do better allowing it to "breath" as its own thing instead of multiversing it to the mainstream MCU right away. I feel like The First Avenger had that problem where it was too rushed to get him to get to the present at the end and it would have been nice to have some other adventures during WWII (though it worked very well for the larger story, but I think took away a bit from Captain America).

That's exactly it, it's all about how well the film is executed. I fully admit I didn't think guardians would do as well as it did when they announced it. Or Ant-Man would connect with the general public. Heck, most people wouldn't have thought ironman would have been that successful. Anyone of marvels part one films could have gone the other way. But the films were all fun engaging films that were well put together.

So I have no doubt fantastic 4 can be great. I'm a bit unsure about Pedro as Richards but if it's done right, it has all the potential on the world.

Your incorrect memory of the world is sad.

If the only way your ideology makes sense is if you pretend well-documented historical events never happened, perhaps it’s time to question your ideology.

 

[MoonRakerSCM]

I don't base my perception of the world on a few fringe idiots that don't matter and never did matter. It's a pessimistic, dangerous, and grossly misinformed way to base ones idealogy.
