How would YOU reboot the Fantastic 4?

[ernesth100]

Or the cameo of course could be set up towards their solo film via post-credits of IW

This too.

 

[NotSoLongAgo]

First of all **** earth. I'd start the movie with the four crash landing on a place like this:

Think the martian meets Rick and Morty meets community except with super powers

 

[ernesth100]

Wow, um...big jump but hey if that's the direction Marvel goes I'm on board. I mean it's funny really imagine going into F4 and the film opens with them all getting dragged and tossed around by a space monster on the moon or in another dimension like, would it go from there or would it open like that then jump to the beggining of the movie and tell the story of how they got to that point.

 

[Web-Head]

That's another thing too. How would Marvel introduce the First family? I think they'd show up in other films first before getting their own. At least a couple of them would.

Name drop em in spider-man. Tony tells Pete he's in New York meeting with Reed Richards and Sue Storm about funding a space mission. Peter says he has a class with sue's brother Johnny.

I'd like to see Johnny around Peter's age, maybe a couple years older. Still, great idea! But doesn't seem likely right now.

 

[ernesth100]

Depends on what grade Peter is in Homecoming. The youngest Johny should be is 19. Don't want him to be a child

Agreed. I would like to see Johnny be college aged.

Just keep it true to the tone of the comics. Right now, ideal director would be James Gunn. Guardians of the Galaxy has the same tone.

At first I was gonna say it would be too much stress to work on that and Gaurdians(if theres any sequel after Gaurdians 2. But if the Russos can do two Avengers films and Civil War then anything can happen. I mean I'd certainly be on board with it.


Another director that comes to mind is Edgar Wright.

The Russos are two people directing these movies. Markus and McFeely are the writers. With Guardians, Gunn is writing and directing. Yep. He's doing the job of four people. James Gunn is a very busy man right now.

 

[Kyle]

I don't think Gunn could realistically do it. But, just someone with the same overall approach.

 

[Web-Head]

Gunn wouldn't do it if he's going to be doing Guardians 3. He says he's one of those guys who only work and focus on 1 movie at a time. I'd like to see Brad Bird do it, if he's not busy with the Incredibles sequel

Fox holding onto the FF rights for another 20 years or Edgar Wright trying to get his version of the FF off the ground... hmmm, which option would be more likely to give us an FF film sooner?

 

[Zarex]

Favreau, Whedon, Gunn, the Russos and Reed would all be strong choices if Marvel decided to choose from their current stable of directors.

 

[First Avenger]

The Russos are two people directing these movies. Markus and McFeely are the writers. With Guardians, Gunn is writing and directing. Yep. He's doing the job of four people. James Gunn is a very busy man right now.

Yup. Same for Whedon,with even higher expectations which were far too high for him to meet. I can't fault him for retiring after Avengers,AoS,supervising Phase 2 and Age of Ultron. He would be perfect for F4 though.

 

[Orba]

I think Whedon might like the chance at a Marvel property without the demands of weaving together all the thread lines like in Avengers.

 

[First Avenger]

Also there are no more Perlmutter and Creative Commitee,so the creative process is much smoother now at Marvel Studios.

 

[NotSoLongAgo]

I'd rather see someone new come in and do it.

 

[ernesth100]

Josh Trank would be the ideal director.

Actually, Zak Penn helped Whedon with the screenplay. James Gunn is the only one man army that I know. I wonder how he even sleeps. On top of working on the Guardians by himself, he also keeps in constant contact with his fans, even more than the Russos. I'd be ok with Whedon directing F4. He may be burnt out, but give him a few years and he could make the best F4 movie ever, which really isn't really saying a whole lot, though.

Way I heard it, Zak Penn wrote the first draft before a director was decided. Whedon hated the script and wanted to write his own, which Marvel allowed.

But yeah Whedon sounds really burnt out with a big blockbuster movies. He sounded like that after the first Avengers. Still I'd love to seem him write a treatment for F4.

 

[ernesth100]

Oh yes I feel like Whedon would definitely nail the tone of the F4 for some reason.
