Yes, I always prefer my Marvel movies explicitly coexisting in the same world. Like having Nick Fury appear.

Then I wouldn't see the point in creating this position in the first place.

Millar is in quite a different position. How does Brian Singer respond if Millar suggests a change to the DOFP script? Singer has been working with these characters for over a decade and likely has his own vision of how the X-Men story will continue. Millar can offer advice to Josh Trank on the FF reboot, but Josh could threaten to leave the project if any conflict took place, putting the FF film rights in jeapordy. In summary, Millar is advising and Whedon is supervising. |

Also the two teams were manipulated into fighting by The Puppet Master and the Mad Thinker way back in FF #28. I'd pay to see that on the big screen.

I certainly remember reading many cross-overs / team-ups between FF and X-Men characters when I was a kid and even if there wasn't a comic history, there's no reason they couldn't create a new story line.
BUT I don't like the idea of crossing over just to cross over. With the large number of characters involved even individually, a story that includes both teams could be a real mess. Whatever they do needs to be driven by the story and not forced just because it worked for Marvel and the Avengers. The Avengers formed a team with different individuals but FF and X-Men are already teams. Fox needs to keep perspective and not jump into any forced combinations.

I understand that for the Fans of the Fantastic Four should be excited that the FF is being rebooted and has the chance of being done right this time. But why reboot the franchise if you not gonna do it right? And it's not gonna be done right without the great script and a hefty budget. So the X-Men have to do so well that Fox can eat the losses that they'll have rebooting the FF. I just don't feel that Fox will put their heart into the FF like the X-Men because this movie is just to keep the rights to play keep away. As a FF fan (As well as a overall Marvel fan) I'm bracing for insult if this film goes into production. They don't even own/have access to most of their supporting cast (Namor, The Inhumans, She-Hulk, Black Panther and maybe more) |

There was also a recent issue of X-Men: First Class where Xavier contacted Sue Storm to be sort of a mentor to the young Jean.

Another problem is an excuse for a fight scene, not full fledged story. Really the story comes down to Mad Thinker and Puppet Master decide to use the X-Men to destroy the FF. Not a lot of meat on the bones for that plot, with no set up for Mad Thinker and Puppet Master, there is no reason to really care about them, their motives for wanting to destroy the FF will likely be underdeveloped and they will seem shallow villains. This the kind of story that would sense as an episode of a TV show, but not a movie. Mad Thinker and Puppet Master need a grander plan in order to carry a movie. Making the FF and X-Men fight each other should be phase 1 in a plan, not the entire plan. I'm not sure if FF 28 is the best story to best an X-Men/FF movie on, I do think there are ways to come up something a bit more thematic, a bit more epic, something that really pays tribute to both teams. FF 28 was really just kinda of a one shot FF story with the X-Men as guest stars, not really a good basis for a movie. |

Look wise - Kirby all the way - no one has come close to translating his tech visuals to the screen and if done right it could really be amazing. |

The villains should be darker too. While when not with the villain it could be more lighthearted but the villains should feel really threatening that's why I vote for Annihilus, Doom, and Galactus Last edited by Blackman; 01-07-2013 at 09:48 PM. |

Well one of the things FF2 did get right was the globe trotting aspect - it was nice to see them all over the map...
FF has never been a "dark" comic - serious sure, but not dark - the important thing is to keep to the tone of the comics - the Lee/Kirby comics! |

On another note, Captain Logan just posted his Superhero Rewind review of the unreleased 1994 FF movie (he covered the other two awhile ago).
Hearing again the messed-up story of how that stinker got made got me wondering what might've happened if the scheme to hold onto the rights didn't work; would it have reverted back to Marvel right then and there? Would they have just sold the rights to another production company instead? And I couldn't help thinking how crazy would it have been if the MCU started with the 2005 FF movie instead of 3 years later with Iron Man, especially since it was the FF who kicked off the Marvel Age back in the 60s.

Well there has to be a balance. The FF should not be grim and gritty, but that was not the problem with the last couple of FF movies. The problem with those movies is they left like farce, the concept was not taken seriously and it felt like a farce rather then a sci fi action adventure.
An FF film can have light hearted moments, but it also needs serious moments, with real character drama and the villain has to be someone who is menacing and has interesting motives, not be comic relief. |
