Hi guys, I was just wondering if anybody had seen Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer. I saw it this weekend and I liked it a lot. The movie vastly improved on the original and included some terrific adventure. The film is very humorous by showing the squabbling relationships among the four heroes without diverting from the mythic atmosphere and storyline. The Silver Surfer is a wonderful character, though I wish that they showed more of him. The final battle with Doctor Doom is awesome. The film took many elements from some of the classic storylines in the comic books and put them together. There were some rough spots here and there, but overall is was very well done. I had a lot of fun watching it! Anyone else see it?
I don’t know what it is, but she wasn’t quite as hot as usual. But that really didn’t matter as far as the movie went.
The two are good enough if somebody else pays for the rental or if you happen to catch it on TV.
Sorry, but I’ll toss it in the same pile as Superman, Spiderman and Scooby Doo.
You're right. The tone was certainly disparaging and shouldn't have been. Hawkeye was a great team leader, too.
I still have the original four limited issues where the West Coast Avengers were formed.
They must be worth ... $3 a piece by now!
