Fantastic Four

[Schimid]

Not so good.

The movie takes way too long to set up, and tries way too hard to keep the idea that the superheroes are just humans with crazy powers fighting someone who wants to become some all-powerful God. It takes way too much time making it's main heroes human and way too little time with the crazy kung fu whachow action.

There's only one big fight scene in the whole thing. One. And I think that's the main problem with this movie, that there's no real build-up between the bad guy and the good guys. Bad guy gets super-powers, good guys stop him, that's kind of it.

Mr. Fantastic got gypped by the way. Fuck that power. When compared to a guy that can light himself on fire at will and fly. We spent the whole movie making up new names for him like Mr. Underwhelming and Mr. Overstatement.

Anyway it sucked.

I saw the trailer when I went to see Star Wars ep. 3 and it was fucking ridiculous. ITS GLUBBERIN' TIME! jesus christ.

[Krythor]

That's actually from the comic.

I think people should understand that the Fantastic Four have always been Fantastic Fags before they go to see this movie with unrealistic expectations.

[ItalianStereotype]

I think he was actually making fun of the fact that he couldn't say "clobbering" ;<

Why would you be interested in four superheroes with the shittiest powers ever! Of course you would need for of them because they would get their asses worked on their own.

[Skulhedface]

...unless you were The Human Torch and the villain you were fighting was Mr. Bad Touch.

[Jim Duncan - Weather]

FLAME ONE!

At least The Human Torch's power is kind of cool, I mean who wouldn't want to burst into flames and not be hurt by it? But, pretty much any superhero could kick any of their asses.

This piece of shit is easily in the running for worst movie of the year.

I'm glad I decided long ago to not see this in theatres.

It will be downloaded and laughed at while drunk, just like Alexander was.

I like how for a month before the movie people were signing ad deals and showing commericals for Fantastic Four giveaways near-nonstop every day. And then they suddenly just disappeared. I wonder why.

[Chojin]

I totally sympathize with Doctor Doom, too. He loses his entire corporation because of some dork, and then his girlfriend of 2 years runs off with that same guy. He would have been perfectly justified in murdering them all with a tent spike.

But, as it was, he was completely harmless, and got shut down in short order.

I also thought it was cute that Storm 'couldn't hold it much longer!' when Doom was using Jedi lightning on her, but she could contain a supernove in a little bubble with no problem (okay, with some blood out of her nose, which disappeared soon after)

And watch my house burn down the first time I dreamed I was fighting crime? No thanks.

To be fair, they have the same powers as the Incredibles, only instead of the human torch, they have a little kid that can run fast ;< And the Incredibles are AWESOME. ;<

It didn't disappear, she made it invisible... because we all know a chick isn't hawt with blood trickling down from her nostrils.

The movie was flawed, but I enjoyed it anyway. Dr. Doom was VERY poorly done, but the Four themselves were captured almost perfectly from the comics. The team is lame as shit in the comics too, so no big surprise that they were still lame in the movie. The final fight was disappointingly anticlimactic, and they really should have had at least a few more fight scenes throughout the movie, but despite all this, I really enjoyed the film. I thought it was hilarious...I laughed with it plenty, I laughed at it even more. Basically, I had a great time and was thoroughly entertained. It's not a very good movie, but from where I was sitting it was fairly enjoyable.

Schimid... You are totally missing the sex aspect of Reeds power. Why do you think he is called Mr. Fantastic?

And while the Human torches powers rock, he still says "Flame on!", which means he is either gay, which is fine by me, or a retard, which I guess would not be his fault.

But a retard who can burst into flame and fly? THAT is some dangerous shit.

[the_dudefather]

who comes up with the names? im not familiar in the comic or movie but i imagine it going like this:

guy1: we need us some superhero names to look that bit cooler, ill be called 'mr fantastic', since i am fantastic

guy2: what will i be called?

guy1: hmm.. since you are now hidiously deformed since the accident we shall call you 'the thing'

*tear rolls down the things cheek*

[eggyolk]

that made me lol

[DamnthatDavid]

I enjoyed how Mr. Fantastic was able to afford all the gizmos to make a super rare, mutation cloud chamber, even if he was broke.

[pjalne]

I enjoyed how the invisible chick made herself invisible so all four super heroes, including an ORANGE man made of STONE, could walk through a road block unseen.
