Fant4stic: Reborn! - Part 35

[Eddie]

Can anyone outside of the Philadelphia area buy Tastykakes? I'm in the Philly area, so I can get them, but I thought they were a regional thing.

They recently expanded. I started seeing them pop up in my part of the country last year, particularly in Target and one of the big grocery chains.

 

[I SEE SPIDEY]

We see Tastykake sometimes in discount supermarkets....we see Hostess and Little Debbie more commonly here in Ohio

Ahh a fellow Ohioan.

 

[See Cap Run]

l:

^ there's a few missing. Sheridan, Shipp, Hardy, Smit-Mcphee, Turner, Byrne, Kebbell.



It isn't at all for two reasons:

1. They aren't using the Marvel Studios logo

2. They've been using the Marvel logo for 15 years. Long before there was a Marvel movie universe so it's standard practice



He's going to be in X-Men: Apocalypse, I think it's rumoured that he's in this and Deadpool too.

Yes, there was a Marvel logo. I can understand it, and forgive it.

But they left out the Fox logo to try to connect it to the MCU in people's minds in order to stop this film from dying the death it so richly deserves: I'm less forgiving about that.

I grew up in Pittsburgh and at that time they hadn't made it that far west. I never heard of them until I went to Penn State.

But I guess they're creeping across the nation.

consider me a third...

and no, i don't know if i've ever seen a "tasty cake" they look terrible and generic...

I much prefer Hostess, but I think that's because that's what I grew up with. Around here, people can't live without them.

They're actually pretty great, but they clearly suck at picking tie-in partners. The Butterscotch Krimpets are good.

It occurs to me that they should have partnered with Mortal Kombat. They're both enjoyable things made by people with krap spelling skills.

 

[I SEE SPIDEY]

Tasty Cakes do look gross to me. I grew up on Little Debbies.

 

[justanotherguy]

It's a little disconcerting that I don't see Cyclops.

Really hope he's not marginalized.

Again.

I would bet that of the young kids, Turner is the focal point.

If Fox was really going to make Scott a big featured player going forward, then a bigger star would have been signed to play him.

but who knows what will happen after the F4 disaster comes out maybe it will be the critical moment where Fox lets Marvel make all of their movies.

 

[Quasar]

I finally saw an FF TV spot. yippee

 

[CyclopsWasRight]

As long as Stan can say "Excelsior True Believers" and stand on his soap box, the king of cameos will stay true to this title.

Yes, he will make the cameo.

Tatum helped Stan get off stage at SDCC as he lost his balance a little. Hard to believe he's 92 years old. I mean he's old yeah but 92 that's a good lifespan

 

[starscream22]

I'm in Philly but I've always prefered Hostess over TastyKakes. And Little Debbies were always cheaper than both. So as a kid walking into a store with just a dollar, the 25 cent Zebra Cakes and Fudge Rounds always beat out the competition. That's not to say that I don't occasionally get a craving for a Chocolate Jr. Or a Honeybun.

Fox strategy makes sence targeting Philly with Creed being shot here though.

 

[Marvin]

Nope!
The votes are already in for us and people are hip to the games you avid suppporters play. Ultimately this reboot is seen by many as a huge letdown for legitimate reasons. There's nothing you can post that will change that.

If you like what Trank has flung on screen, fine. Just don't continue to insult our intelligence with gullible deniability and weak derailment attempts.

Unfortunately I wasn't asking you, and yes I'm well aware of your celebrated biases going in, ergo why I didn't nor do I bother asking your opinion or try changing your opinion. I elaborated on an opinion I found poignant. I get that one doesn't care about this movie, that doesn't mean one doesn't care about the very subject they've chosen to discuss. Again, the best movies in history aren't measured by everyone soley on production value alone, sometimes things like story and performances go along way(for people, one in particular), that may or may not apply here but if you can't see anything worth understanding in that statement then...do me a favor and don't continue to bring up insulted intelligence again and again.

Speaking of games, what exactly is being derailed? I believe the conversation was about the wig and production values and F4? I've noticed you use this 'derailment' card every now and then so again, what exactly is being derailed? Zebra Cakes?
Actually never mind, asking you to elaborate on your post probably classifies are more of your derailment.
Peace

Meanwhile in Tastykake land......
http://www.kcentv.com/story/2955405...power-of-four-with-fantastic-four-partnership
To capture fan excitement nationwide, Tastykake and Fantastic Four created four limited edition packages, each featuring one character: Human Torch Peanut Butter Kandy Kakes, The Thing Creme Filled Krimpets, Invisible Woman Swirly Cupcakes and Mr. Fantastic Chocolate Bells. Fans can collect all four limited edition items everywhere Tastykake is sold.

Yikes, those things have a shelf life of eternity.

 

[Val_Zod]

If Stan is in this movie it sorta makes his comments about not changing the race of established characters more awkward, though...

I personally don't take anything Stan Lee says seriously, as he will just agree with anything you say. you tell him the 2 Story film's were good, he'll say they were fun and magical.

I have never seen or heard of Tasty cakes, Over here in California Hostess and Little Debbie have taken over

 

[Spider-Aziz]

I know of Hostess thanks to old comics, never heard of Tastykakes.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

Ahh a fellow Ohioan.

I live in Kentucky.....I don't recognize that brand.

I'm not familiar with it either.

 

[ThePhantasm]

What the **** is a "tastycake"? I've never heard of that before in my life

 

[Loden Greatstorm]

I can't get over how awesome that final shot of Johnny flying in the trailer looks. My goodness thats a thing of beauty!

 

[Lightning Strykez!]

Hmmmm. So we have...

1.) Invisible Denny's syrup that looks like male "nectar." Ahem.

2.) A "Doctor Doom" that looks like a S&M whipping boy.

3.) "Tasty Cakes."

Sounds like the marketing plan for a porno.
