I have
seen all of the Fantastic Four movies. The Roger Corman one, the
terrible ones with Captain America as The Human Torch, and the latest one starring Creed and Whiplash. Out of all of them the Corman one is
the closest in tone to what I'd expect from a FF movie. Yeah, I know
there's a rubber arm waving at the end which is funny no matter how
many times I see it but its still a better movie than the others.
Strange considering it was made on a budget of $1 million while the
others were $100 million, $130 million, and $120 million
respectively.
One of
the screenwriters for the last FF movie that has been trashed by
everyone but I liked more than most recently talked about making a
sequel for it. “We didn't make a good movie, and the world voted,
and I think they probably voted correctly. And you can't make a good
movie every time out--not everybody does. We actually have a pretty
good batting average, all things considered. But I think we made many
mistakes when we made that movie--mistakes that we learned from and
we wouldn't repeat” Simon Kinberg said in an interview.
Folks
get mad at the ideas of reboots. Not me when it is done right. I
would rather them have stopped at that first Amazing Spiderman and
start from scratch than that terrible sequel they did. I am praying
that Wolverine gets a reboot. I do not want a sequel for the latest
FF. I want it started from scratch with a whole new cast. And guess
what? No Black Human Torch. Dylan McDermott as Reed Richards.
Michelle Williams as Sue Storm. Dave Franco as Johnny Storm. Jesse
Plemons as Ben Grimm.
I
wanted a cast that was in their late 20's and up. You may or may not
know these names but I do and that's all that matters because its my
blog. Even though I'm not a massive fan of these characters I know
that there is a lot of potential for it to be a good movie. I wasn't
excited about Iron Man or Cap before those came out. If they manage
to make a great FF movie I'll be happy.
