Commence complaining.

"1 will be bad. 4 will be fantastic."

Ugh. Pretty nasty teaser, at least in my opinion. But nasty in some of the footage but also just the entire design of the teaser. Really obnoxious.

 

[pxleyes]

For all the grief they gave all the fan sites about posting 20 second here or there, this was pointless.

I am really not impressed. Horrible music, decent special effects (compare to the comic or cartoon), and I want to shoot however is editing this. He has no sense of pace or composition. "Since we shouldn't show anyone a good shot before the trailer, lets put a flashy filter over it so you cant even freeze frame to see what is going on."

I am really worried about the future of Marvel films. They are doing about 1 out of 4 are good films it seems.

 

[BigJonsson]

I LIKE!!

 

[DMczaf]

Who ever came up with the idea of generic text popping up every 2 secs needs to be shot.

 

[StrikerObi]

Looks totally badass to me. Effects look killer.

 

[Mike Works]

Pros:

Effects look great, trailer looked great, I am great

Cons:

Nice font guys, THE TRAILER JUST BROKE MY SPEAKERS WHAT THE FUCK

 

[Matlock]

forever

4 ever

It's grossly out of place for a trailer, I'm thinking - honestly - they couldn't get the standard "In a world..." guy into the booth on time.

 

[mattx5]

Looks crap, especially the generic, 'action movie' shot composition.

 

[Gorey]

Dunno, that doesn't sell me. Close, but not quite.

I still don't like their take on The Thing.

 

[element]

looks like shit!

 

[G4life98]

thing looks too small and his face is still weird.

i hope the trailer music is not indicative of the movies score...it just doesnt fit the FF

C+ trailer

 

[Baconäger]

"You know that looked shitty".

 

[Mr. Spinnington]

Ew, it's like a seizure

 

[SKluck]

Eh, looks alright. Can't really say bad or good. I dug that music though. My interest is piqued. I don't really have a problem with a more sizable Thing. No one had a problem when X-Men took a more literal approach to superheros, why is this a problem?

 

[Drozmight]

the music choice was just baaaad.

 

[Matrix]

I dont like the way the teaser was cut,but the actual movie footage looks better than I thought it would.

 

[effzee]

looked pretty good to me.

 

[DaveH]

Pleasantly surprised... like a lot of people I was expecting a dog, but at least the FX look purty. Then again some of the Elektra FX looked good too.

 

[Screaming_Gremlin]

While the trailer sucked, the movie footage itself wasn't bad. Effects seemed nice. The music choice on the trailer was crap and so was the text popping up.

 

[open_mouth_]

Looks Awesome! Screw the haters...

 

[Trevelyon]

Man, who would've thought Julian McMahon as Doom would end up looking really retarded.

INCONCEIVABLE!

But still, I'll give this a shot.

 

[Father_Brain]

It wasn't very well-edited, but I actually thought the footage looked decent. I'm still pretty sure it'll suck, though.

 

[Malakhov]

+1000000000000 - A perfect circle music.
-1000000000000 - The movie footage.

same heere.. i was expecting pure trash.. this still has promise.

 

[pxleyes]

+1000000000000 - A perfect circle music.
-1000000000000 - The movie footage.

No wonder the music sucked.

 

[FoneBone]

Wow -- you'd think Fox would at least edit the trailer for their tentpole movie decently. I'll agree the footage itself looks OK, but I think the movie will suck.

 

[Malakhov]

No wonder the music sucked.

If you have no clue about music.

 

[Dead]

Terrible song in the trailer, and im not impressed at all. Fantastic 4 has always been one of my favourites, I dont want this to suck

 

[Outcast2004]

To all the people complaining about Thing being too small..

That's the size he's supposed to be.

6 foot 1 inch tall. Weight about 700lbs.

Only recently have artists been taking liberties with his height.

 

[The Bookerman]

Story's fuckin dumb... Van doom going in space with the Richards & co?


that never fuckin happened. He hid behind a mask because he scarred for christ' sake.


Didn't they read the books?

 

[Celicar]

Has the guy from The Shield AND the guy from nip/tuck?!?! This movie is going to KICK ASS!!!

 

[Xenon]

Reed Richards seems a little young to me.


edit: I'll be seeing this just for Chiklis.

 

[Macam]

I fail to understand why the Spider-Man movies are the only half decent movies Marvel can muster, but about 11 movies later, I just don't care. Bring on Iron Man and Ghost Rider and let's get this train wreck over with.

 

[Gorey]

I didn't say I thought The Thing was 'too small' or 'too big'. I think he looks 'too much like fucking crap', is what I think. Big difference.

 

[Kumiko Nikaido]

This movie is coming from the guy that directed Barbershop and Taxi. Should we be worried? :\

 

[Prince of Space]

looks like shit!

"Tell me what you didn't like about it."


Seriously though, even Dr. Troy couldn't save that drek.

 

[paul777]

No Galactus = No Buy

 

[FortNinety]

No Galactus = No Buy

Eh, wait for part 2 when Silver Surfer appears.

That may be so, but there is no way the guy from the Shield is 6'1.

 

[Dan]

Correct.

From IMDB: 5' 8½" (1.74 m)

ON ON JULY JULY FOURTH 4TH

The Thing still looks like shit.

 

[Rorschach]

Looks lame, sorry.
