Well excuse me for wanting to see Dr. Doom fight the Avengers.

That was really well done. This looks far more interesting than other super hero movies this year. I wouldn't be surprised if this was a contender for best block buster this year considering the talent behind it.

Fanty's prettier.
A shadowy (but not filthy) portrayal that pantomimes realism in a fantastical manner.
Grimdark.
See also: Warhammer 40k.
This is par for the course with Fox's movies. It sorta worked in X-Men, which is, I guess, why they've taken it so far.
It is sorta weird that they're continuing it, even after Marvel's success with the opposite.
If I had to, I'd define it thusly:

Where's Jessica Alba?
Invisible.
This looks way darker than I would expect a Fantastic Four movie to be, but whatever. Could be alright.

Trailer did absolutely nothing and The Thing CG was hilariously bad.
That being said i will withhold final judgement till i see the movie because trailer CG isn't always final and shitty trailers don't make a film shitty. The cynical part of me wants the film to flop so bad they just give up and the rights somehow end up back at marvel but the kid inside me, the huge comic fan inside me wants it to succeed and be amazing because i love the Fantastic Four. I also have nothing against casting younger people or adapting more from the ultimate universe because i find that universe much more interesting, especially if it's between that or pissing on great storylines and changing core things like in Days of Future Past (loved the movie but it should of been Prydes time to shine)

At the end of the day, Marvel sells, even if its not the studio proper.

Looks really good, but I'm not sold on the cast just yet.

There's always one in the bunch.
2016 better shake things up or the fatigue will hit everyone. I'm already expecting the second trailers to show more.
In its defence, the old FF films had hokey feel to them, light hearted and slightly campy ala Raimi's Spiderman. I don't think the market reacts well to those anymore. Its all about edge now

Admittedly having done a recent re-watch of FNL I will say he (and Kate Mara) are moving the needle a bit for me.
Well it's from the director of Chronicle. I have the feeling that this might work. GOTG already fill the funny-space slot, I think a "dark" FF could work (Ben's story always seemed super tragic for me)

Yeah Guardians had that edge.
I'm pretty sure that's Reg E. Cathey i.e, Dr. Storm

Yeah. Cinematography seems to be very nice.
in parts yeah.
It's not 2008 anymore, people enjoy light hearted action movies.
I'm conflating edge with a somber tone but still.
Hopefully, people realize the difference between Marvel Studios and just a movie with Marvel characters.

Since he doesn't seem to need pants in the film, it got just a bit more tragic for him.
oh boy..any other examples?

It will be a very visually appealing movie, for sure. Some great cinematography. I think going dark with FF is a mistake, but I do think Trank is great. I'm torn. It's just a teaser, though, so I'll wait and see.
Was that the Broadchurch theme music? :lol
Not a whole to say about the teaser, other than it looks nice. I didn't like Chronicle at all, but hopefully that was more because of the found footage gimmick (and Dane DeHaan's constant whining) than Trank's skill as a director.
Please don't tell me the movie is actually being spelled out as Fant4stic.

Looks ok......hopefully that dialogue is not an indication of the quality of the writing in the rest of the film tho.
Hahaha. I wish. Gotta wait for the reviews.
I'd save it for leftovers for now, my biggest complaint was that this movie didn't seem like the Fantastic Four due to how dark it was.Welp time to eat
I'll return to the fridge if this movie gets good reviews. Hopefully the crow you prepared is still good by then.
Yes, they have to put it there, but they used old [superior] visuals.

So, this didn't look bad at all. I definitely want to see it.
This reminds me of Halo 3.
Hold me please.

Looks like they're going against the portal thing from Halo 3
