Fant4stic No reviews yet for the new FF movie? Hmmm I smell

[Taarna]

No reviews yet for the new FF movie to be released on August 7th?

When a hyped movie get no reviews this close to release date you have to wonder why. Several of the other movies released on August 7th have Rotten Tomato reviews.

The Fantastic Four has not. What does this mean? The stench can be smelled from Mole Man's deepest pit? I think so.

It means it's really really good.

Not only is there an embargo as far as we can tell the Press Screenings won't happen until next Wednesday and Thursday so even with the embargo being moved to Wednesday evening we probably won't see any reviews till Thursday since the embargo looks to be dropping when the first Press Screenings start.

 

[TeeKay]

I have a feeling it'll be a surprise.

Same here. I was initially skeptical when I'd heard the casting, but the more bits and pieces they've been sharing, the more my interest grows. Guess we're in the minority around here!

Yep. They want to keep the reviews quiet for a reason. The testing results must have bombed

Same thing happened to Jurassic World. The reviews were not released until 2 to 3 days of the opening day.

It had to have done. If the orginal cut before the reshoots didn't meet with good reaction, what makes the final cut be any different

Who is this "Mole Man" you speak of? Harvey Elder is a respected government bureaucrat!!!

 

[Quasar]

They're likely referring to Agent Mole.

Yeah, surprise the people still thinking this reboot will be good.

 

[starscream22]

They're likely referring to Agent Mole.

Which is another LOL @ this reboot.

Its almost like Trank made a sitcom where the characters in the sitcom are pretending to be a Marvel team using the lowest budget and crappiest script ever.

Cool, guess *I'm* in the minority around here, then!

I don't think this is true. I remember hearing great things from insiders back in December (in the same breathe these same folks mentioned hearing awful things about the FF) so I have a hard time believing this. Can anyone confirm what he said to be true?

Earliest one was April.

So yeah, not really true.

Thought so. Thanks for clearing that up.

 

[VenomsMom]

Im starting to think there will be plenty of seats available if any of you want to check this film out.

Reviews were embargoed until the 10th of June (2 days in advance). I remember it caused some concerns on these boards. Don't know where that April one came from. Google tells me there were press screenings a week before the release though.

Nope, not until AMC gets an exterminator.

Way too many crickets!

Hmmm I smell

Deodorant or a simple shower can help with that

True. All other reviews are from the 10th of June onwards.This April one could even be a glitch. I've seen some bugs on RT before. Regardless, every other review of Jurassic World dropped no earlier than 2 days before its release and it still was well received - no matter how you want to spin it, 71% is a solid score. Not to say FF will be well received aswell, but I don't see why it couldn't be at this point. I may be epicly wrong, but I still think it will be a pleasent surprise. It'll be hard to be worse than the last two FF films, at the very least.
