    My hope all along has been that this does so poorly that the only move that makes any financial sense is to try and sell the license back to Marvel.

    I mean, I guess I also could have hoped the movie would be good, but I'm not delusional.

    I do like that they gave Deadpool the "makes no actual sense white comic book eyes" for his mask.

    Humor can be dissected as a frog can, but dies in the process.

    Screw realism, I'd love to see the next Spider-Man film go that route too.

    I know it would be a legal nightmare and would never happen, but I'd be down for deadpool being the one character allowed to show up in both MCU and X-Men movies.

    Like the end of that said, there's also a red band trailer.

    NSFW, obviously:
    Mostly the same jokes, but a little more swearing and some digital blood, and some nudity too. *shrug*

    I'm still disappointed with the trailer that came out earlier with the gay jokes, but these trailers are good.

    Just you wait. This movie seems to follow that old script that got leaked years back, and that had him getting yellow subtitles.

    Seems like they're basing at least some of it on the Joe Kelly run, seemed like that version of the origin story (plus Blind Al and Weasel of course).

    The gun huff line is changed in the red band trailer, and there is no rant in the red band trailer.

    Also, the full line for one of the ugly jokes is "You look like Freddy Krueger face fucked a topical map of Utah."

    Oh, and there is no line where he is calling Colossus something homophobic, which I had heard was in the trailer at comicon.

    Nope they were there

    the only changes so far have been making one of the superhenchmen a woman and adding negasonic teenage warhead (And the green lantern joke)

    everything else we've seen has been 1:1 with the script

    Both lines aren't very funny. I don't know what I was expecting with it, but I guess my bar for sexual/firearm humor is set higher than the film is, ahem, aiming for?

    Oh my God that is so stupid
    like, every other origin is about scientific discovery and the joy of exploration

    But nope drunken testosterone fueled bullshit sure why not
    Technically the original origin was about beating them dirty commies into space.

    Blank, how long have you been calling this result, again?

    I'm pretty sure you made an accurate "It stinks" prediction awhile ago.
    Well I think a bunch of us were pretty wary of it for a while

    The casting was good but the second Trank started talking about his influences I was basically out

    Ok, I didn't think the Thor movie was going to be good, but I saw it and said "You know, this was probably as good as they could do given the source material." Then I heard later about the influences of the director and such, and how the people involved in the movie knew that it was really about Loki (this was my little fan theory for a while, but it was nice to hear).

    I am convinced that for hollywood to make a good fantastic four movie, they need to build it around Doom.

    Actually, I think they need to lay the fuck off Doom. They always show too much of him. Doom should just show up in the story as already Doom; not get his powers from whatever gives the FF their powers, and MAYBE you see a college flashback to him and Reed being roomies and the explosion that ruined Dooms' face. After that, you never see his face again

    I appreciate they at least listened to feedback and tried to fix it in the movie. Shame the surrounding material sounds like it sucks.

    Yeah I really wish we could get a Fantastic Four movie that skips the origin bullshit.

    FF isn't that obscure. Four peeps went into space, crashed through the spatial anomaly equivalent of a radioactive superpower buffet, and came back superheroes.

    Also Doom is there. Ideally blowing up incompetent Doombots and monologuing about how little Richards matters to him.

    I think a cool way to do a Fantastic Four movie is to do it as a period piece. The US in a race with the Soviet backed Latveria to reach the moon. Four astronauts hit a weird pocket of space, the leader of Latveria's program gets pissed, you see how it goes.

    I actually liked the green band trailer version of this better

    Just topographical map of Utah is a perfectly good joke, and the other line about his face also involves sex

    It provides variety

    I thought Fant4stic was just going to merely be not good

    It sounds like even worse of a trainwreck than Man of Steel

    Because there are things to like about Man of Steel

    Fant4stic is just a black hole where no positive feelings can be had

    ps i think deadpool looks horrifically unfunny

    The best thing that can come from this new F4 movie is that it can do less than 30 million in domestic business this weekend. If that happens, I believe it'd be more profitable for Fox to try and sell the rights back to Marvel than to make another bomb.
