They’re a boring team, and they’re at the sour spot between “solo protagonist” (Spider-Man, Captain Marvel) and “ensemble of supers” (X-Men, Avengers) that just keeps failing miserably but they keep trying to make them. Suicide Squad managed to be an ensemble, but they killed enough off for cheap heat/did not characterize enough of them that it ended up in the same segment as F4.
The only good thing about any Fantastic Four story is Dr. Doom and they just fucking refuse to put a good representation of that character into a Fantastic Four movie.
Has anybody seen it? Why is it doing so badly?

Excuse me?! What about the guy who can climb anything? Or Katana? I hear her sword can trap the souls of it’s victims!
Mass audiences have never, ever cared about the Fantastic Four. Every attempt to make the Fantastic Four a thing in movies has flopped.

kinda sad how the best version of dr doom is from the unreleased movie from 1994
it’s less sad when you consider that is also the best f4 movie
How do they usually fail at Doom?
Its kinda brutal that the incredibles scratched that itch that producers of the f4 movies seem to try to get
I think it was ok. The fans saw it, but the novelty of superhero movies has evaporated. And Superman was better.
I thought F4 was really good and most the discourse I saw was positive. Honestly kinda surprised to hear this news.
They’re nobodies compared to Superman and Superman is all over the headlines right now
was alright
