Nope, it's a Fox movie. Marvel had zero hand in this film's creation.

That reminds me of how "THE RING MUST BE DESTROYED" was in all the trailers/ads for Fellowship of the Ring but it never made it into the movie. Or at least I completely missed it, even in the Special Extended Edition.
Pretty much. never cared for them anyway
...What? Its in the council of Elrond scene, both cuts.

Aye, I'm hyped for that. It's way overdue, but shit the first Incredibles was a good Fantastic 4 movie.

Fantastic 4 [OT]: It's liquid dogshit
Really? I thought they only wanted to barter for Galactus and Silver Surfer when the DD deadline started coming up.
It's Fox. What do you expect?
Some of the X-Films might be good, but they just do whatever the hell they want with the characters.

Is anyone even surprised by these?
I loved Chronicle and was hyped at first with the announcement, but every bit of info and media has just stunk.

Holy hell, unreal. I bet whoever came up with this was patting themselves on the back too.

Oh, no, not Elrond's part, Gandalf said it in all trailers before the movie came out, and I don't remember that part from the movie. I remember watching it many times and it was never there. Here -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pki6jbSbXIY @ 0:35

nah, this is gonna slide off everyone except Trank. Jordan's still got Creed comin, with Coogler directing and Stallone in his corner. He'll be fine.
This shouldn't have made me laugh out loud, but it did.
I don't even know how they have any claim on the character, though, since she's a tried-and-true Captain America villain.
Age of Ultron was alright, & Ant-Man actually delivered.
Really puts that damage control piece he did with Kinberg in perspective, doesn't it?

Eh. if you're going in for the kill that would be:
Fantastic 4 [OT]: Funny, Fraudulent, Failure, Flop
(I'm thinking of that thing on Last Week Tonight where Helen Mirren narrates some children's book and it goes straight to torture. That and: Tinker, Tailer, Soldier, Spy. )
Fantastic 4 [OT]: That shot from the trailer got Galactussed. It's up in the clouds.
Fantastic 4 [OT]: It's TRIGGERING time!
Fantastic 4 [OT]: Shorter trailer than Transformers 4
Fantastic 4 [OT]: That's right Jay, it's Fantastic!
I feel kind of bad for the director though. This things has basically been targeted for failure since conception, and not just by the internet.
Did I mention I actually like Terminator: Genisys once you get passed the internet vitrol?

She has a lot of history with Wolverine. Maybe this is one of those shared character deals. Not that the character in Wolverine resembled the comic character in any way.
I don't feel bad for him, from all reports he was a total jackass.

I guess this year felt weaker for comic book movies because Marvel didn't blow our minds on the level of Winter Soldier or Guardians (though Ant-Man was the pleasant surprise of the two MCU films this year). But in all honesty, Marvel's 2014 was a tough act to follow. Then there's the F4 reboot that, from the looks of the reviews, shat the bed this year as far as CBMs go.
Oh yeah forgot all about Creed. Good shit.

Well if it bombs, what are they going to do with it? They have to make another movie or rights revert back don't they?
"It's clobbering time". That's how they shoehorned it in?
Hey, look at the brightside I guess, maybe Fox will follow Sony's lead and let Marvel use the rights if they want.

The 05 movie is okay.
They got like 6 or 7 years to start production iirc.

Only big thing left for this year is Episode VII. This year did feel a bit empty for some reason compared to last year. 2016 will be crazy though with Civil War, BvS, Suicide Squad, Deadpool, Assassins Creed, Doctor Strange and Apocalypse.
Define big? We still have a Pixar film, Bond, and Mockingjay Pt 2 before Star Wars.
All of those are way bigger than anything we have had in the past month since Minions.

There's way too much bad blood between them for that to happen. Even if Fox and Disney are playing ball on Star Wars for the most part, that doesn't mean that Fox and Marvel are going to start liking each other.

Creed is looking really good, he'll recover so quick

The only way I can see to make an FF movie cool is to go all Kirby psychedelic. The inherent super-family concept is a little too corny to work as a straight ahead blockbuster. Even the comics have been grappling with that forever. Future Foundation would be too complex and brainy to work as a movie (animated series could work though).
Still on track to be the new Brendan Fraser.
Does Fox even have anything to do with Star Wars going forward? I think they only own the rights to the first film, and the distribution to the other five.

I thought GAF had decided that was Chris Pratt.
(which is almost as dumb a comparison)
