Why the Fantastic Four?

[Carnage921]

In the bridge scene, the Thing savves the fire truck, Mr. Fantastic stretches to save the fireman, and the Invisible Woman contains the fire and dissapears. But Johnny, he just holds a girl. I mean he doesn't really show any powers. If I was a news reporter I would have called them the Tremendous Trio. At this point, nobody had seen Johnny do anything special. Why did they acknowledge him.

Jonny I believe controlled the fire to manuver around the girl

[Carnage921]

oh, that would make sense.

You guys ever notice how neglectful parents are in Marvel movies? In Spider-man 1 and 2 there are babies left alone in burning apartment buildings while their parents are safe outside and in Fantastic Four the young girl was left by the burning car alone.

you're right. maybe they figure a hero will arrive out of nowhere and save them.

I think it's funny how, when the traffic stops on the bridge, Reed, Sue, and Johnny all dash out of the taxi and automatically know that the accident was caused by Ben.

"Sue find Ben"-weren't they going to Brooklyn to find Ben? Who says hes on the bridge. And they didn't see him first because when Sue sees him shes shocked at his appearance.

He did a little more than just hold the girl, he protected her from the flames. Normally, that explosion would scorch someone, but it didn't hurt Johnny, so that was his purpose. I wouldn't have even counted Sue's turning invisible though. All she did was push through the crowds with her clothes off...

[Zombie_Comics]

Yeah but they did get through the crowd! Plus Sue is awsome. Or well Jessica Alba is awsome and very hot.

[wolfboy]

No way. Jessica Alba wasn't a good fit for Sue. Alba is hot regardless.

My wife always notices this in movies, especially the examples you cited; you couldn't get us a foot away from our kids in the same circumstances.

As for the FF Bridge scene, I've watched that movie many times and I want that to make sense, it just doesn't. I can forgive the coincidence of Ben's fiance being on the bridge, right at the scene, but how does Alba stripping and walking through the crowd help anything?? And all these main characters all converged on the exact same spot at just the correct time??

Maybe the Watcher was intervening and guiding them along, like Laurence Olivierin Clash of the Titans.

protect a girl from an inferno wearing nothing but a leather jacket and see how well you come out.
