FF isn't the worst comic book movie ever, which will always and forever be Superman IV, nor is it the worst modern one (since Jonah Hex exists)

Posted by Reagen Aug 11 '15, 20:30

but it's so wrong headed in every respect that I'm surprised Fox didn't try and pretend they never made it. "What? No, we never had a movie for this time period, what are you nuts? Fantastic Four? Why would we try that again? *shreds promotional material*"

Is there any evidence of something lurking underneath the edit? They hinted on Hollywood Prospectus podcast that Trank swears he had a solid cut... - Name Withheld By Request Aug 11, 21:18 15

  - Feels like openly trashing the studio is not the best way to go about that, really - Reagen Aug 11, 21:31 7
    - He's pissed off both Fox and Disney (booted from his announced Star Wars pic). - Name Withheld By Request Aug 11, 22:01
    - In the absence of action, witty banter and character interplay can sometimes be a substitute. It would be strange for Fox to trim that out, though. - Beryllium Aug 11, 21:43 5
      - So is Joss Whedon,and they probably didn't want to piss off the intended audience anymore than they already had. -- nm - tobor.2 Aug 11, 22:23 4
        
        Fox cancelled Firefly. I was being wry. -- nm - Beryllium Aug 11, 22:25 3
        
        Or, in Firefly parlance ... - Beryllium Aug 11, 22:25 2
        
        So was I. That's why the Firefly fans were pissed in the second place. - tobor.2 Aug 11, 22:34 1
        
        ooh, maybe that's what ruined F4. Producer interference, showing scenes out of order. -- nm - Beryllium Aug 11, 22:50
- They do a couple of interesting things with Ben Grimm that might have gone somewhere, but it's missing pretty much everything that makes them, them. - Reagen Aug 11, 21:23 3
  - X-Men Origins: Wolverine was estimated at 150m -- nm - Beryllium Aug 11, 21:26 2
    - this is honestly worse. - Reagen Aug 11, 21:27 1
      - :( -- nm - Beryllium Aug 11, 21:28
- Did you see the link today of 12 things in the trailer that were not in the movie? - Spawn Aug 11, 21:22 1
  - search for links from me on FF, I posted one yesterday from i09 that is hilarious -- nm - Beaker Aug 12, 04:28
also "SHUT UP SUE MEN ARE TALKING" indeed. -- nm - Reagen Aug 11, 20:37
