For me...Fantastic Four was my favorite comic growing up. So, it's emotional investment...but also...the source material is there, it can be translated to film fairly easily (Marvel proves that) and so it's just a HUGE disappointment to see so much potential wasted by a studio that seems completely clueless on how to translate the material.
Also, since bad adaptations are seen by a MUCH larger audience it can really impact how a character is viewed.
For example, Aquaman is still considered a joke by pretty much everyone but a few DC diehards thanks pretty much soley to the Superfriends cartoon.
