To be fair, that was just a bad movie all the way around.

I think this movie being set in the 60s is going to help it out.


That part actually makes me less interested in seeing it, but to each his own.

The embargo is up today, so we'll get actual reviews. I agree with everyone else, first reactions are always positive

why?



I love the Fantastic 4 especially The Thing. I would like more of them in the future so this movie tanking would really suck.

I love Reed as well and his detachment yet care from humanity. I think he could really be a great cornerstone piece of the MCU. Pascal just needs to STFU about his personal politics because he is a good enough even great enough actor to pull this role off well despite not being their first or second choice initially.

The first reactions are usually bought and paid for fan boys that speak in hyperbole on Twitter about it


It’s ironically also the only place where those guys get to be somewhat honest about how they felt about previous marvel movies

“Man I was worried after ___ movie that marvel had lost its touch but this set up the next phase in a huge huge way!”

Meanwhile the movie they are referencing they had previously globbed the knob of the same way

I wouldn’t say one dimensional if you put out office, Jack Ryan, and Quiet Place.

But he is definitely not leading man action star. That being said, I like Jim.

I'll add that presales for this film are surging. It's going to have a huge opening weekend

F4, the team, has always seemed incredibly lame to me, BUT their rogues gallery is super compelling.

Big enough of one to know Dick and balls aren't essential to the character

i care less about the girl version of Silver Surfer and more that she just looks fricking aweful.

but I do think we will see a lot of universes collide in Doomsday which may give you your male surfer.

After all the overhyped praise that bargain bin Superman flick got, I'm officially done taking reviews seriously.

Man you’re a bitch

They give you like 50 comic accurate hero’s and then they give you the comic accurate female surfer in an alternative timeline and you fall apart.

Your Superman review was over the top to the point of parody.

I hope it does great. I hope it leads to a resurgence in the MCU.

I am only waiting for streaming because of what they did to my all time favorite character.

First MCU film I will intentionally skip in theaters.

It isn't a robust protest, but it is what I got.
