Fantastic four

[Mr. Scot]

Behind the scenes buzz on this film is that it's so awful the studio is resorting to desperate measures.

Second trailer just got released.

[PandaPancake]

This proves the argument I heard the other day. We only care about the characters not the color of the actor's skin.

[SOJA]

I'm going to watch this just because I really like Michael B. Jordan 

 

 

edit: jk would have watched this anyway, excited to see the direction this movie takes. 

[PandaPancake]

Jordan is a great young actor. As long as he doesn't butcher the source material he's handed, he's a fine fit for Johnny Storm.

Look, Chris Evans didn't exactly raise the bar for the character.

I was watching the trailer and my fiance said, that looks good what is it?

[Zaximus]

Early reviews on this from critics and audiences is TERRIBLE.   Like... Green Lantern was a better movie terrible.  I knew it would probably be "meh" but to be THAT bad..... sounds like they completely ruined Doom as well.

[scpanther22]

I have a hard time trusting reviews for comic book movies. So many people decided before this movie even released a trailer that it was gonna be bad hearing the first reviews are bad doesn't really surprise me.

Currently at 18% on rotten tomatoes, with only 11 professional critics weighing in.

"Fantastic Four feels like a 100-minute trailer for a movie that never happens."

"Director Josh Trank has assembled a quartet of engaging, charismatic performers and stranded them in a miasma of exposition and set-up. So much time is spent putting the pieces on the board that there's barely any time to play with them."

"This is a film that's been shredded to near-incoherence in the editing room, with a finale that's over before it's barely begun."

 

shucks, I so wanted this to be good

yea I have yet to hear one positive thing about this, and even Trank deleted a tweet blaming Fox executives for he movie's flop 

[Zaximus]

Down to 10% on RT.  Wow.  What a failure.  The sales may be down because this is even on the CNN front page so people hopefully won't get tricked into going, give tons of money, and they make a sequel.

“A year ago I had a fantastic version of this. And it would’ve received great reviews,” he wrote of the 20th Century Fox and Marvel pic. “You’ll probably never see it. That’s reality though.”

wow, not a good look bro

This film was made only because Fox wanted to keep the film rights for the Fantasic Four. They waited the full amount of time to make it before it reverted back to Marvel.

The story behind the movie is in all likelihood more interesting than the movie itself. There's a pretty good 30 minute long video out there detailing how screwed up the production was and how crazy Josh Trank is.
