What is it with Hollywood and driving through cornfields now?

 

[GuitarAtomik]

Good teaser IMO. Thing looks good. I'm just glad we can finally put people's fears to rest about this being a found footage film.

 

[CassidyIzABeast]

I like the look of it.

 

[Trey]

Where have I seen this visual before...

Tell that to the Covenant.

 

[E the Shaggy]

Hmmm, not terrible.

Also, I'm guessing Johnny and Sue aren't siblings in this one? Or have they addressed that?

Seems like Sue was adopted.

 

[hiryu]

Not a bad trailer but the actors are way too young.

 

[Ahasverus]

Not... bad?

 

[SFenton]

Wow, I loved that.
Really.

 

[RS4-]

I thought it was Brian Cox initially as well, but I don't think it is after watching again.

And the dude doing the narrating is Johnny's dad, you see him once, maybe twice in the trailer. Oh, not a bad trailer!

 

[jwk94]

Do they explain why the characters are played by kids?

Fant4stic.

You mean adults?

 

[Rootbeer]

VERY strong interstellar influence in the trailer.

Another FF movie without Franklin Richards :/

 

[Nairume]

Hmmm, not terrible.

Also, I'm guessing Johnny and Sue aren't siblings in this one? Or have they addressed that?

Adopted siblings.

 

[glaurung]

You mean adults?

I am sure you meant to say 4dults.

Appealing to the younger generation, nobody wants a grandaddy Mr Fantastic nowadays.

 

[shinra-bansho]

Hmmm, not terrible.

Also, I'm guessing Johnny and Sue aren't siblings in this one? Or have they addressed that?

I think the conclusion based on what's out there is that Kate Mara was adopted by Reg E Cathey.

 

[thecouncil]

So Wallace is Human Torch, the drummer from Whiplash is Mr. Fantastic, The Granddaughter of the Giants owner is Sue Storm... who the hell is the thing?

Billy Elliot.

 

[Platy]

So ... is there any random Ultimate universe where it has the "dangerous and alternate universe" right off the bat ?

 

[BlazinAm]

Hmmm, not terrible.

Also, I'm guessing Johnny and Sue aren't siblings in this one? Or have they addressed that?

Sue is adopted. I think the guy from House of Cards is their dad.

I don't get why Miles Teller isn't Dr. Doom, he has the face of an asshole.

 

[NotLiquid]

I mean

Maybe I'd understand what's so "alright" about the trailer if I knew what the fuck was going on.

You could replace the Fantastic 4 logo at the end with a logo for any other original IP and it'd still be as interchangeable and make little to no sense. This isn't a bad trailer as much as it's a completely boring one that says nothing about the movie.

 

[Emarv]

All the posters complaining of their age I guess would need to look toward Ultimate Fantastic Four to see where they're drawing that from.

 

[Log4Girlz]

Adopted siblings.

I hope she's adopted

 

[Dragun619]

So is that X-Men's Stryker at the 0:35 second mark? (on the right)


Grittiness is not the same as grim dark, my dear.

Yea, I was about to say, he really looks like that stryker dude from x-men 2.

I think the director mentioned there's an easter egg in the teaser. I'm guessin this is it?

 

[Kain]

Only Doom spamming Foot dives can save this film.

Or this

 

[Neoxon]

As a trailer it did its job. Though it's far too dark for a Fantastic Four movie.

 

[GK86]

I kinda liked it.

 

[Cartman86]

Good trailer, but I can't help but think of this thing as an anachronism. A super hero movie that looks like it doesn't want to be one. They don't make those anymore, and I'm kind of glad they don't. That being said it's not impossible for someone who loves the source material to come along and "reboot" it as their own thing. That's the kind of history of comics anyways.

 

[Dragonborn]

I think the conclusion based on what's out there is that Kate Mara was adopted by Reg E Cathey.

Adopted siblings.

Seems like Sue was adopted.

Ah I see. Makes sense.

 

[Beefy]

Already looks better than the other f4 movies.

Yep.

 

[freethought]

VERY strong interstellar influence in the trailer.

Another FF movie without Franklin Richards :/

But then there wouldn't be four of them.

 

[Visceir]

I like what I saw, made me curious to see more.

Honestly I'm more eager to see this than Avengers.

 

[thecouncil]

TRAILER,... now with commentary by Josh Trank and Simon Kinberg!

 

[Caboose]

Doesn't look llike much.

 

[Cartman86]

Yea, I was about to say, he really looks like that stryker dude from x-men 2.

I think the director mentioned there's an easter egg in the teaser. I'm guessin this is it?

Same look, but that's not Cox.

 

[Slayven]

I am sure you meant to say 4dults.

Appealing to the younger generation, nobody wants a grandaddy Mr Fantastic nowadays.

Well in comics Reed first met Sue when she was 12 and he was in his late 20s.

 

[Glass]

There are so many comic book movies coming out, fatigue is going to set in soon. It looks like this movie is at least doing something different, colour me interested.

 

[HassanJamal]

I expected much much worse. This was actually ok.

 

[shinobi602]

Looks pretty good.

Just wish the actual Fantastic Four were older.

 

[GuitarAtomik]

....alternate and dangerous universe ?

wtf

Negative Zone yo.

 

[Callibretto]

looks like a WB movie....

 

[Ahasverus]

What is this bullshit?

It's true though. Somehow managed to look more expensive than The Avengers.

 

[Father_Brain]

Nice visuals, doesn't look terrible. Kinda sick of the last few superhero trailers (both AoU trailers*, Ant-Man, and now this) taking themselves far too seriously, though.

*not counting the extended one with the party scene

 

[Bold One]

Fox is doing the same thing with Xmen, get a young cast on the cheap and milk them for franchises.

so far this looks better than the last FF

 

[Plasticine]

Seemed more like a teaser for a new X-Men movie than the Fantastic Four. Really bland teaser, with nothing to get hyped about. This is 2015. Really need to see something other than a quick second of Johnny Storm getting his flame on to get me interested in superhero flick; especially one that's made such a negative impression on me so far.

 

[freeofgreed]

Better than I expected. Still not sold on the cast though.

My thoughts too. At least the cinematography looked nice.

 

[El Daniel]

Looks pretty good actually.

 

[HIGH DEF JEFF]

What is coming?
The ANSWERS!

The answer is..the Fantastic 4 were DESTINED to become the Fantastic 4.
Everything and everyone in every movie leads back to a prophecy.

 

[Oersted]

Looks good.

 

[Sou Da]

Fox is doing the same thing with Xmen, get a young cast on the cheap and milk them for franchises.

Low bar, but even the first trailer for that looks more "Fantastic" than this.

 

[Dyno]

I liked it! And the voice over actor is that older black dude in the trailer. He's a great actor! He's the rib man in House of Cards.

 

[Haloid1177]

It's true though. Somehow managed to look more expensive than The Avengers.

The Iron Man films and Cap 2, as well as Guardians, all looked better, but that's based strictly on a teaser.

Honestly wish it was more in tone with X-Men, but going from that teaser it's even darker than that.

 

[cacildo]

Exactly
It looks like nothing (or anything)

Its like the ant man trailer, but we had higher expectations for the ant man trailer (that were shot down)
