I liked that they changed it to green.

And the start of the trailer with the kids in both trailers... are really good. I can't wait to see them! Flying car reminds me of Fantasticar!

Same here. It feels more alien.
 
I thought both of the new trailers looked great, loved seeing .Reed being the leader in the final battle, Johnny Storm acting like he should, Sue being strong and finally a Thing that looks capable of fighting someone like the Hulk. Loved the young Reed and Ben stuff as well.

I know many are not liking the look of this but based on the trailers I really like what I am seeing.
 
I don't see that happening. And not because of whining fanboys, everybody knows that they don't make film's hits. I don't think the marketing is good enough and I don't think that they visuals are sufficiently eye catching.

Probably WOM after release will be THE factor
 
I hope F4 fans don't kill me but I find the Negative Zone origin more compelling than the Space origin.
 
If the talk of Fox canning a 3D version at the wishes of Trank are true, then that is pretty great news because it means Fox still cares what the director thinks. We’ve all heard the rumors about Bryan Singer potentially directing Fantastic Four 2 in order to set-up a Fantastic Four/X-Men crossover, which seems to rub against the other rumors about a X-Men/Avengers cross-over arriving in 2020, but that’s a conversation for another day, one that changes if the movie works on an artistic/entertainment level and/or the movie makes over $400 million worldwide. The film allegedly cost $122m to produce, which is actually less than Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer ($130m) back in 2007 and not much more than Fantastic Four ($100m) in 2005, which means that the film doesn’t need to break the bank to make a profit.

I'm curious as to why. A color change just seems so...superfluous.

The green fire effects aren't as polished, and that weird green light reminds me more of horror movies / the undead than anything else
 
Remember when that concept art leaked that revealed a radioactive green Thing? Yeah, I'd bet my left foot they seriously considered that design now.

I wish I could find that again to compare how Thing looks there and in the trailers.

Pretty sure they were identical outside of the green coloring.

:funny:

And if anything makes me thing Fantastic Four, it's horror movies!

Yeah in our world, lava is red... in the N-Zone or Planet Zero its green. And visually it looks more appealing and different.

I don't have a problem with the space vs. N zone change, in film or in the ultimate comics. It's everything else around this project.
 
I watched the final FFINO trailer on mute this morning. If you excuse the awful looking Thing and the inexplicably terrible Doom, this actually looked watchable.

Then I watched it with sound. The dialogue continues to be cringeworthy, and like all of the other clips we have seen the "jokes" are actually awkwardly worded statements that cut to a smirking Kate Mara. FFINO is pretty much guaranteed to be the most poorly written CBM of 2015. I know certain folks are holding out hope that the film is going to do well with critics on RT, but that's going to require ear plugs.

You're entitled to your own opinion but I feel like the space adventure aspects of FF are the most compelling pieces that will never be explored as long as the people who are in charge are involved. There is non of the whimsy or wonder that is present in the comics translated to film here.

Sidenote: Just me or did the acting leave much to be desired in the trailer... like it was horrible?

Many times the dialogue that is edited for a trailer doesn't actually go with what we think it does in the movie. Sometimes that ends up a good thing, and sometimes that ends up a bad thing.

It just seems so dark.....I just can't get over that huge detail. DARK...

In some places it was okay, in others it seemed flat and listless.

MBJ seems to be enjoying himself, at least.

i posted this a few pages back, to no response.. but

i'm honestly fine with the Negative Zone origin.. it's the same spirit of the space race and uncharted territory.. but the fact majority of this film deals with their "tragic accident" and "disfigurements" and coping with them.. is beyond total BS.... I almost kinda feel like If marvel ever get's the rights back... they need to tell a main story.. but a flash-back story... Maybe the F4 and Doom were a big strange thing that happened in the 80s... Doom won, thought he killed them (really just sent them through a time portal) they re-appear in modern times, unaged.. they're big celebrities... Doom aged a bit.. and was kinda bored with no longer having a rival... Latveria is in shambles.. Doom see's them return, his anger rebirths.. yada yada... that way you keep the back history.. the origin story is done, it could be sorta similar to how DC is handling Batman right now.
 
There was alot of controversy because he wasn't in full armor, just a mask and wearing a suit with a hooded trench coat.

there was some. i wouldn't call it "Alot" because the design at least looked like an update on doom.. everyone's main focus was on the actor, the story, the origin, the power set.. etc.. which was awful
 
Ladies and gentlemen. I present you Marvels greatest villain.
