Marvel Studios’ ‘The Fantastic Four: First Steps’ (7/25)

[Bryan Danielson]

I wonder how much was edited out. Something just felt missing. And am I tripping but wasn't The Red Ghost supposed to be in this movie? I thought I read that last year.

that’s what I’m trynna find now a thread or page that has all the rumors and speculation.

To see what was right and what was wrong

Good movie, best FF by default. Johnny was the MVP for me followed by Sue and Shalla Bal. They somehow made Reed the least interesting character, I also feel like they bytched Galactus out in the third act.

This movie could've easily added another 30 minutes or so.

this movie at the very least has a straightforward story unlike the hackjobs we got in previous phases, but make no mistake, this is also a massive hackjob. I don't wanna hear about movies being too long when i gotta sit through 15 minutes of credits in hopes of seeing 30 more seconds of movie. this was a big event. we've been waiting 10 years for the MCU Fantastic Four, they left way too much on the cutting room floor. I'd argue you can tell they chopped most of the "fun" out of this movie. I don't think the level of "fun" ever lives up to the aesthetic of the world they built... and before you tell me all these movies don't have to be "quip machines, etc" this was severely lacking. there's a 2:30 cut of this movie that is borderline great. this is simply ok.

Though it was cool I thought it was weird he got out of his ship and started walking around.

Spoiler

also Sue pushing him back really didn't sit well with me.

Spoiler: Well

Being that it took EVERYTHING from her and out of her to do it…..

More specifically costing her her life….. I think it tracks.

As most shows…. The hero push themself to their limits and just be exhausted in the aftermath, no she literally died

They actually did it, a good F4 movie that’s not The Incredibles. 8/10 4th time the charm I guess lol. Not better than Supes but still a good watch. Still disappointed at the DOOM casting tho. But marvel is winning my trust back in the movie department.

I love that the movie isn’t that joke-y outside of mole man and the Johnnie and Surfer stuff

 

[Bryan Danielson]

Vanessa Kirby looked beautiful in this

yes…. She was gorgeous…..

I don’t follow a lot of her work or seen a lot of stuff she’s done in the past. But she‘s nice

It was a stretch...a HUGE one at that. That's why I don't think Galactus works as a action movie villain.

Spoiler

They should've just let Franklin do it

Which itself is weird, because they have to 2 perfect characters to do it...more than any other tandem in MCU

 

[The Prince of All Saiyans]

She in a couple of Mission impossible movies

I realized I thought she was in the F&F knockoff with the Rock and Jason

wasn’t worth it. Just a silly cartoon of them

Spoiler

When it said they’ll return in Doomsday I figured nothing else would be worth a damn. Glad I didn’t stay.

Yeah I think a better movie was left in the editing room.

Still silly given how powerful he is.
