I dunno, I guess it could work. What with a huge star appearing and having it rain fire and shit around the world. I think they could execute it in a cool way. My main problem is - how the fuck do you fight a storm cloud? At least with a gaint purple dude you know what to hit.
Well, that's always been the problem with Galactus: you can't fight him physically, unless you're a force of nature yourself. When he was introduced in FF, this was a defining point, in that the only way they could challenge him physically was to threaten to unmake existence with the ultimate nullifier (which, now, is a part of Galactus and so can never be used against him again).
Really, until Annihilation/Marvel Zombies, there was never any indication that any sort of actual physical assault could do anything to Galactus, even in his starved form.
You'd think it'd be different for all of us. Like, 'Ahhh, my drunken step father is over a hundreds of stories tall!" or, "Hey, hey, hey, Fat Albert's gonna eat us."

He's been un-masked before. He has no hair, in case anyone was wondering.

Get the Hulk to do a crossover, duh.
EDIT: FF1 is one of my favorite comic book movies, I just really like it for some reason. The finale fight is limp but I loved the rest of it. Unexplainable. I have high hopes for FF2 and refuse to believe the storm cloud Galactus is anything but a smoke screen for what the big purple wonder will look like in FF3.

It's a collective manifestation culled from the fears of man the world over. I mean, why do you think he's topped off by such a suggestively shaped purple cylinder?

Seriously though, what would an amalgamation of man's greatest fears look like? A thunderstorm that rains bleeding, gay spider-clowns upon us?
I'm going to go ahead and close this, since this topic is also being discussed in the Movie Rumors thread and we don't need two threads on the same subject.

As opposed - per your sig - to a guy wearing a fruity green ring? (or a dozen?)
We should all just be happy he's not wearing a skirt or a belt with a giant G on it anymore.

A tiny little green ring is way less flamboyant than a huge hat that looks like some sort of gay viking helmet
Beta Ray Bill also smited the shit out of him in Stormbreaker.
