... well at least torch didnt get chocolate...
 
It's time to move on from the dick jokes and the general crude talk....

Mr. Lee, did you see the link with the..........whatever you call these things. Clearly, either Fox have bad marketing or someone just doesn't have a clue. Some of those names seem like names out of bad XXX movies. :huh:
 
I think Fox's best strategy is to hope people will show up to laugh. With the lack of pants (and other bits), silly voice and bad CGI, there's no doubt people will be laughing at The Thing, so Fox has to hope it's bad enough they can make some money that way.

The licensing for this film is just bizarre

They've signed on with Dennys (ok), Tastykakes (never heard of 'em before now), and some sort of craft tape company (wtf). Are they just selling licensing rights to any company that will shill out some cash? I think so
 
Rotten Tomatoes just released a new article tonight on 39 Marvel Hero Films ranked worst to best. Guess what two films are in the bottom of the barrel? Yep. Right alongside Elektra and Howard The Duck. :o

What a legacy this next film is building on. :whatever: I wonder where "Fant4stic" will end up ranking on that list?

It's unfortunately a combination of the naked genital free design for the Thing and this line of somewhat poorly judged promotion. The former making the latter (and jokes derived from it) somewhat ironic thinking about it...

Should have kept that one 'a superhero secret' as Stan once put it.
 
Okay, that's fine. But you know the jokes are only as crude as the marketing and SFX for this film. :cool:

I have read the ads.....I know it is some of the stupidest crap ever came up by an ad agency....I know the jokes are way too easy to make.....I'm saying control yourself.....just because something is so easy and begs to be made fun of, it doesn't mean you are required to do it. You can point out something's unbelievably bad wording and innuendo deserving content without taking it too far.
 
I may be evil and an Ohioan but I am not a communist! :argh: Okay I am probably a communist.
This would explain your support for this film. Also your desire to see a Red Son Superman adaptation.

This entire film production has been one of the most surreal experiences I've ever had on these boards.

It boggles the mind. Truly.

Boom, do you think it tops what we went through here in 2004? I think the forum fighting was a little worse then. Funny: so many of us didn't even show up for this production. Then again, many were banned during those 2004/2005 board wars, so...yeah. :csad:

What C. Lee is saying here is talk like an English gentleman.

Rupert: Benedict.

Benedict: Yes Rupert?

Rupert: Dear boy, have you seen the TastyKake's for the new Fantastic Four film?

Benedict: I can't say I have Rupert.

Rupert: Very untoward. They use the most scandalize language to advertise these biscuits.

Benedict: Is that so?

Rupert: Yes. It takes me back, to the days before the war. Do you remember Elizabeth?

Benedict: Of course Rupert. She had the most immaculate front garden. Always so well kept.

Rupert: Yes. It was marvelous.

See, not hard. :o

The first time around was worse. Probably because of how naive many where. So many were full of hope, believing they were going to get that Fantastic Four movie they craved so much.
