Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer
- Time
- Post link
I actually enjoyed the first Fantastic Four movie where a lot of people hated it. It was a good popcorn flick even if Dr. Doom wasn't done very well. What makes me not-so-optimistic about the new on is that from what I've heard, Galactus won't be the massive armored Devourer of Worlds we know from the comics, but aparently according to once source, he's going to be... a big storm cloud.

) I heard about the Galactus being the storm cloud... I can only hope that is false information, but somehow I have this feeling it is. I guess they decided they spent their budget on the Silver Surfer (which looks pretty good) and that they will just use some left over storm cloud effect for Galactus and call it good. Ouch! Not seeing this in theaters though. I thing Spidey was my last Marvel flick to be seen in theaters. "Every time Warb sighs, an angel falls into a vat of mapel syrup." - Gaffer Tape

on top of that marvel is releasing a steelbook special edition of X-2: X-men united.
double and triple dip fun begins anew, i even heard that there will be an extended cut of ghost rider on top of the bare bones dvd release.
add in the new spiderman 2.1 and they are just flooding the market and gouging.
they better not mess up ff 2: rise of the silver surfer because they will ruin 2 film franchises with the cast of one stone, both beloved works of the late Jack"king" Kirby.
they cheaped out on the special effects of spider-man 3, i hope they do not do the same with silver surfer.
No John Dystra on spider-man 3, wtf? were they thinking.
I have very high hopes for the new hulk, daredevil 2, and wolverine, as well as iron man but will probably be dissapointed once again as a comics fan. if they mess up the frank miller and chris claremont take on wolvie i'll never forgive the bastards.
Marvel definetely needs to bring the quality level up because dc is bringing its A game , with the man of steel and the dark knight. too bad they shleved new Gods that would've been a hell of a movie if done right, but i said the same about fantastic four. and the corman version is closer to the doctor doom of kirbys book, lol
kind of how i think X-men 3 should not have been made unless it was by Bryan Singer. Superman returns was ok, x-men 1 and 2 were great.
first mistake hire a cheapy horror movie director second, allow the actors to determine the course of the films, hugh jackman and hallie berry anyone? then kill off cyclops and jean grey when anyone with half a brain knows the phoenix story of the comics does'nt do this and is not what singer wanted, he wanted to do star trek 3 via clothed in x-men universe.

BTW, thanks for spoiling the ending for X3, it probably saved me some time

I never watched the first movie because I thought it would be a waste of time. But you think it's really good? Is it actually a good movie with a good story and well developed characters or is it just fun too watch? (or both?

) Despite what some others think, I think it was both a good story and it was fun to watch. I can agree with a couple people here that maybe Jessica Alba's performance wasn't stellar and I see where Dr. Doom maybe could have been pulled off better, but all in all, I was very surprised. This could be because I never read the comics and didn't really have any preconceptions about what the story should be. I watched it for the first time only three or four months back and was very surprised at how good it was and wondered why it didn't take as well as some other comic book movies.

I am not even such a big fan of the X-Men comics, but I know the characters, they have been around a long time. They way they pissed on so many characters and brought characters, and made Wolverine and Storm the primary characters sucked. They hardly even notice Scott is gone, barely mention "hmm, I wonder where Scott is..." and then he is never even mentioned again. I am surprised he even got a grave at the funeral. I really liked the first two, but I had complained before of Cyclops treatment in two, since he was held captive off screen for the majority of the film. I was really hoping they would give him some decent screen time in the third one. Nope. Much like Spidey III, it felt like they tried to cram too many plot lines into one film, but yet there was no story structured around those plot lines, it felt rushed and thrown together. The first one may very well have been a near perfect comic book movie in my opinion. X-Men fans and non X-Men fans alike enjoyed it. The second one had flaws and many fans hated it, but I still enjoyed it. The third one was awful. Not even only based on the treatment of Cyclops, but as a whole. The editing at the end was pretty bad too.

Really? I would have thought that most of the fans would have loved it. I did. But then, I'm not into comics. But as a film, and especially a comic book film, I thought it was pretty good.
But then, I really liked Spidey 3, so what do I know!
And as for FF, well it was ok. Nothing special, but just a good fun film. I thought Mr Fantastic and Invisible girl should have been a little older though. Someone like (but not) George Clooney to play Reed Richards.
I dunno, It must be cos I'm getting old myself that everyone else looks so young!

But the second film looks like it could be good. The first film I only saw because I was sent to the press screening for my paper, but I might actually check this one out on my own. It looks pretty good, though every time the Human Torch has a line in the trailer, I cringe.
