The jury is in, Josh Trank's new Fantastic Four is a flop and the majority of the population hates it. 

 What went wrong? The answer to that question is rather murky, with people pointing fingers at the director, and other people pointing fingers at the studio. But whats for certain is that the final product shelled out was a mess. Its one of those movies that would be terribly hard to defend. Is it an all around disaster? Sort of. Its not the worst comic book movie ever, but its definately the worst in recent memory. The actors do a fine job with what they're given, but what they're given is crap. The script was absolutely sloppy, its very noticable that there are scenes missing, like the scenein the trailer where Reed is standing over Doom on the examining table and Doom says, 'you don't know what's coming' to which Reed replies, 'What is coming?'

Such wasted potential. Anyway, here's our spoiler filled rant, feel free to jump in. 


Here's some questions worth bringing up:

How was the team able to breath when they went to the other dimension to stop doom? Wasn't there like no oxygen on Planet Zero?

Why would Ben go over to the lab to see Reed in four in the morning when the two of them barely talked, and were distant at the point Reed built the full scale machine? Wouldn't he have told Reed to wait until the morning or tell him to [frick] off? (this question is asked due to the lack of onscreen chemistry displayed between Reed and Ben) 

Why wasn't there anyone guarding the interdimensional machine when Reed, Doom, Ben and Johnny went through? 

If Doom was so powerful, so strong enough to telephatically explode people's heads, why didn't he do that to the Fantastic Four?
 


Comment, rant, whatever haha!

For movies this bad, every comment section should have spoilers.

didanyone else absolutely hate how "Clobberin Time" came about


In another thread, I likened it to the Kingpin saying "Keep kicking him" in Daredevil, or if Jessica Jones used "Take off your clothes" as a battlecry.

It's theoretically possible to have a character that uses the language of their own trauma to turn that pain back on the world in an empowering way... but here, it's just "oh... that's where he got that from," and a slight cringe.

Trank seems to fixate on childhood familial trauma as the only means of character development. Succumbing to it or merely surviving it. Maybe he should be directing Nightmare on Elm Street movies instead of superhero films.
