I really hope this film does well, y'all. I know people haven't liked the trailers and what not but I really, truly love the property. I am really putting all my faith into Fox on this one to get this one right. Please show us a great, great movie.

Haven't been excited for this movie at all.

I'm still holding out hope that it's good (or at least better than what has come before as Fox is yet to produce a well regarded FF movie).

What a coincidence, since so many people want to forget about the upcoming flop.

Id rather Marvel Studios gets rights back as they fit the MCU

The internet gives people future powers, POWERS, but they must use them only for hatred.

Jeeze, the first 2 films aren't the best but I honestly enjoyed them, from the trailers I've seen this new one is looking like a pretty great movie...but as a fantastic four movie its looking really disconnected like its trying way too hard to be different.

The first two movies were fun super-hero movies. Were they perfect? No, but they got the energy and the silliness of the super-hero genre down, and had a strong sense of family.

I honestly thought the biggest downfall of the first two Fox made FF movies was the villains. Dr Doom wasn't handled very well and Galactus was turned into the least menacing thing it could have been.

Hands down the best parts of those movies were the character scenes. Members of the FF playing off of each other. I thought those bits really worked. It was just the "threat" they faced in each film that fell completely flat.

I'm tired of arguing about how good or not good the upcoming film is going to be. I'm at the point of just wanting to see it come out and watch what happens. I hope this thread doesn't cascade into the mess that most other FF threads do.

Fox turned Galactus into a cloud. I will never forget that.

Yes the HATE will make u strong that rights driven Fan4 reboot it still looks crappy.

Chiklis and Evans chemistry as Grimm/Thing and Johnny/Torch was on another level. It'll take a miracle to match that. Doom was ehhhh, no comment on Galactus...and no one in the movie really did anything.
