Fant4stic The Positive Thread - Part 1

[Eddie]

If reshoots are being done in Romania it involves Miles Teller and the head of the makeup department. It's not just location shots.

 

[psylockolussus]

obviously they are filming something (not just establishing shots) there that involves an actor.

 

[Eddie]

Yep. Which will clearly push the filming beyond the four days Kinberg claimed.

 

[2094]

what if they are filming the sequel back to back and maybe the threequel while they are at it. Each film is one act. Makes sense why the movie was filmed in one big room with green screens. Yeah i cracked it.

In that case, Johnny's getting killed off in part one. He won't be available for a stretch due to Creed. Shame on you, Fox! Giving into such a terrible cliche...

On a more serious note, I do wonder what the possible Romanian shoot means for Johnny's role. If he's busy with Creed, will he be all CG for awhile? Maybe he'll just disappear from the film for a little bit. Hmm...

If they really are filming in Romania, i would think they could be filming the pre-doom/post doom scenes perhaps? If they are being "faithful to the source" maybe the final act could be in Latveria but I'm leaning on the Dimension N or whatever its called in this movie to be the final act. Or maybe….they didn't just film in Baton Rouge in the first place…maybe they filmed in other locations…hmm everything of course is speculation.

 

[pavlov]

i think it's the mid-credit scene they are filming.

 

[Urich Leeds]

It most certainly is not.

A midcredits scene doesn't take 3-4 days to film. And that's just if you take Kinberg's word for it.

They've actually been filming for a month

Why is people hung up on reshoots? Every Marvel film has them built into their budgets. Sometimes it's for small things such as the lighting was off in a scene or it could be for something big. However they are having them in Romania that specific country, where Ultimate Doom has a ancestor from that there posthomously named Vlad the Impaler. I think it would have something to do with that and its probably an end credit scene.

Me personally, I'm kinda "hung up" on them because Simon Kinberg lied about the extent of them. That Simon Kinberg would lie about something like that leads me to believe the Bleeding Cool story was spot on. Now I don't think that's inherently the worst thing ever. Hell, this film obviously need these reshoots. It's probably making this a slightly better FF adaptation. I still think it will be terrible, but I'm genuinely trying to leave that for other threads. By all means, discuss the potential positives of these reshoots. It's important to acknowledge, though, that these reshoots are apparently extensive and Fox feels the need to lie about that. I think we need to understand why this is happening rather than simply accepting the lines Kinberg is feeding the media.

As for the Romania shoot simply being a stinger, I'd have a hard time believing that it's cost effective to send your crew and cast (partial cast, at least) to Europe for a one minute or less scene that isn't part of the film proper. Those sort of scenes are usually done on the cheap.

i don't really care if they've been doing re-shoots every day since they wrapped...just give me a good final product. also i'm not really surprised that they're having reed create suits to "hide" their abilities. towards the end of the film they'll probably be in traditional suits because they'll no longer be in the superhero closet, so to speak. it's cliche but whatever...

Wearing a costume covered in springs isn't exactly going to hide anything...

hmm....true. did you watch the video that nerdist uploaded to youtube? the host said something like reed designs some kind of suit to prevent the four from being ousted to the public early on. who knows if it's even true at this point. you're right though....those suits wouldn't hide anything.

Is this confirmed? Do we know for a fact it's been that long?

We don't know much of anything 100% right now, but there have been reports of Louisiana work for a bit. MBJ probably did his reshoots at least a week ago, based off of a tweet from the makeup guy combined with Creed, which began production today. The Romania shoot doesn't seem to have happened yet. At the very least, there's more than a week of work being done.

Ok I gotcha. So at the very least, Kinberg was being dishonest about the "3-4 days of reshoots" thing.

 

[YourFewcha]

Holy news

 

[CyclopsWasRight]

That was a really cool interview.

Hoping the final costumes are more Blue but this initial one looks cool. I like is it has function rather than just being a plain spandex bodysuit. Gives it more detail imo

 

[MakeMinesMarvel]

I can't wait for this movie

 

[Kelly]

Bringing the news, with less of a snarky post to go with it...

I have already kicked someone off this forum that had a more NEGATIVE view because they couldn't post one post without a snarky slap at the posters of a positive persuasion to go with it, some of you are about to head down that same street, that goes BOTH WAYS.

glad to see you book

I am very optimistic after this interview.If trailer as good as interview i will in audence in august.

They aren't denying fact this is more ultimate FF the movie.and they are saying it has bit of flavor of early 616 as well.

 

[TheComicbookKid]

The suit doesn't give me a vibe one way or the other.

As long as it looks good on screen and shows Reed's intelligence then I will be okay. Plus that means we still haven't seen the real costumes.

 

[Kelly]

Until I know what the suit is for, then I can't really say anything. IF THAT is the actual look of their suit, as in with the lighting, with cgi, etc.??? then I won't be happy with that...if it is just from a scene of them using it for something more specific, then I will need to know more spectifics.

 

[YourFewcha]

if that's the suit used for the entire film then i'm not a fan of the look

needs more context though

 

[2094]

Just read the entire interview. What a nice surprise ! I am even more pumped for this movie.
