I think the fan base passed on this film months ago. All of the actors did not seem appealing. Johnny Storm race change did not top rehash of their origin . No one saw an exciting change from two previous FF films. Not an acceptable estranged cousin to The Avengers, Iron Man, Thor, Captain America , Ant Man, Guardians of the Galaxy films of the Marvel Universe.

And this film did not have a Stan Lee cameo.

The fantastic four bombed with the first movie.

i’m sure that ‘the bombing movie’, also made the sales of that comic book go down too.

(yes, i know today’s millemials call these things ‘graphic novels’, which to me means over-priced, over-rated, and still tripe, when compared to what WERE comic books.)

I think the fan base passed on this film months ago.

So, apparently, did the director.

I had less than no interest in seeing this.

Also, I think they are releasing too many movies too close together.

With a production budget of $120 million,

Whole lotta donuts right there.

They should have thrown in a few sexual deviants and potrayed them as “heroes”. The LGBTHILKLMNOP crowd would have crawled over used condoms to go see it.

More bad news for Rupert Murdoch.

Flame on!! Johnny Torch was black? Die hard fans do not like this.

The basic concept is a winner: a decent group of people develop superpowers, learn to deal with them and use them to better the world. In the process they become a close-knit (and famous) family that has galactic adventures.

But that's not dark and deviant enough for Hollyweird.

My original FF #1 is being devalued as we speak.

[minnesota_bound]

I think Stars Wars will do well just because the old cast is involved but the new characters come across as bland.

[Craftmore]

In the original series,,,wasnt it Johnny and Susan Storm,as in brother and sister? So how is Johnny black? Does his momma have some splainin to do?

‘Green Hornet’ had an opening weekend gross of $33,526,876. We’ll see if this winner catches up with that winner by Monday morning.

I'm sick of all these comic-book "super-hero" movies. Unless you are a 13-year-old video game addict, all this CGI crap just gives you a headache.

Whatever happened to movies with real people that had plot lines, interesting characers and intelligent dialogue? Movies like "Shawshank Redemption," "Fargo", "The Godfather", "Back To The Future", etc.

Your correct - it was based off the Ultimate universe version that came out in the 90s as I understand it. The book didn’t do that well either so I’m surprised they thought this would go over. The non-geek/fanboy crowd is kinda super-heroed out based on some review comments so it only makes sense.

Antman was a better film, not quite as funny as Guardians of the galaxy, but not as serious as Avengers/age of ultron.
