Why do you assume he got captured? Doom even took off his mask, if we see the complete scene it will be talking or playing with the kid, turning around and its or itsn RDJ.

The point of the scene was to stablish thay franklin will be the thing driving Doom in Doomsday.

Dudes randomly showing up in my house unannounced usually ain’t just here to talk especially “Uncle” Victor.

But you’re right it may be there is no rivalry between this Doom and Reed and something else is happening

Saw it yesterday.

When compared to Superman, FF4 had higher highs but Superman was a more consistent movie throughout and they did right by Mr Terrific which was a pleasant surprise and gives it extra points from me.

The sequence where

They went into space to meet Galactus was FIRE. Excellently plotted, written and directed.

One thing I thought was silly was

Sue going out WITH HER BABY to plead with the group of protestors. Even by comic book logic that shyt was dumb as fukk and took me out of the movie temporarily. NO mother would do something like that.

Overall I give it an 8/10. Same score I gave Superman.

Actually this movie tapped into the comic.

Where no one really has any idea how powerful sue is. Before this type of engagement with galactus.
That sue knows who or how powerful she is. Yet just like the comic. Sue hides her power level behind the curtain. As sue is one of the og most powerful in the marvel universe. Where in marvel the females are highly ranked but hide their power levels behind the curtain of feminity. Well at least in old marvel.
that is how sue and any other og powerful female heroines were portrayed.

So you think sue can't do xyz. Yet sue can.
Marvel handles infants.
better than dc takes responsibility for infants. As i dropped the star rating for superman. strictly off the REVISITED MIShandling of infants.
BOTH MOVIES SUFFER FROM THE SAME TYPE OF MISHANDLING.
Yet at least in marvels thing. I know who or what sue and franklin are. As i am an actual og powerpack reader. Plus read powerpack to my own daughter. Where franklin basically grows up as a hero. Coupled with being in awe of zeck's flagship interior panel work. Also being aided as premium top shelf flsgship shooter dialogue. With shooter at the helm.
as for the child In supes. I had no idea. Who that infant was. Sohh superman i took a star off. Similar to not learning from the mistakes of the horrifc blasphemy that was the flash. Plus dc being so obtuse at times. To redo wtf people vehemently asked them not to do. Yet dc gon do.
exactly what dc were specifically asked not to do generally. Or re-subject the audience too. Outside of the batman and penguin.

The thing supes has over marvel this time. Is marvel movies are atypically so heavy. They are really difficult to emotionally rewatch back to back. Whereas with this superman. I have watched four times. Plus back to back.
Yet superman has never been this cerebral thing like marvel. As supes will always save the day. With ff. You never know wtf type of dread will be presented. Or if the reed plan will work.
Sohh,...i find ff better. Yet not ready to take on the emotional weight. Of a marvel movie.
for an immediate rewatch.

Superman is like the original tranformers michael bay. While ff is similar to.
the emotional dread in transformers the movie.

michael bay transformers is one of the best summer bootlegs ever. While transformers rhe movie is literally living the change in media and being a kid.

transformers the movie is the better movie. That is difficult to revisit. Yet you could revisit the bay transformers.
as the bootleg playing on loop in the background just because.

that is how best i can explain it.

So Thanos is still the most formidable villain. Crazy when I look up these guys wikis and watch YouTube videos they get hyped up so much.

What can you really do with a movie format? You can’t dedicate back to back to back movies on one villain.

Thanos had the privilege of getting two big movies dedicated to him so he automatically wins. Plus, a lot of these big actors they sign as villains dont want to make it their whole careers. Christian Bale was never going to do more than one movie

still though to see Galactus defeated so easily. By just one of the fanastic 4. Kind of a let down.
