The Positive Thread

The Fantasticar is in the movie. Does that excite anyone?

YAY!



Where did you get that information?

 

[Kelly]

Guys let people be happy with what they are hearing without your rude comments...

Let's play nice.

This rule should apply to everyone here. If people dislike the direction of the reboot, keep criticism constructive and don't be condescending to other posters. The Site That Shall not Be Named has that title in part because of the toxic atmosphere.

I mean, if you're bashing the film but making it a joke and attempting humor, that's okay but when you just get nasty and insult the cast and crew and insult the people who may enjoy a film without any level of self-awareness, then you're just being a jerk.

 

[ThePhantasm]

You can't post videos with profanity in them. Might want to take that down.

RotSS also had the Fantasticar, so that really doesn't say much.

 

[marvelmadness13]

I think the Fantasticar being mentioned needs to be described more. For example there is a person is ns this movie names Reed Richards, but Reed Richards of the Fantastic Four is not making an appearance.

 

[The Guard]

Heh, I just remembered the ULTIMATE Fantasticar.

 

[Eddie]

Yeah, this is probably what it's based on.

 

[Dasher10]

As long as Ben and Johnny can bicker in it.

This thread wouldn't be here if the rest of the section was hospitable.

I get that people want the movie in Marvels hands but it didn't happen, time to get over it and move on.

Constructive criticism and wariness and concerns are absolute fine. If you don't like the direction of the movie based on the synopsis and casting and are insistent on not paying to see it and are certain it'll be a movie you hate if you did happen to see it then why continue to post about it?

Because we are on movie discussion forum and things like this will be discussed, dissected, and critiqued. It's the nature of this entire website.

The other threads are perfectly hospitable. This thread exists because supporters of FFINO struggle to defend the film and would prefer to post in an echo chamber.

Rumors are that concern over negative fan reaction has FOX suits pondering what their next step will be. So whatever we were doing on the big meanie boards, it worked. It may have cost Trank his job. It's not time to move on.

Why do long time fans make negative posts about struggling sports teams? Same difference.

First bold: That attitude is kinda bull****. Multiple Marvel properties have reverted very quickly after a bad film and people are free to not "move on" and think it can't possibly happen again. It happened to Ghost Rider. It happened to Punisher. It can happen again.

Second bold: My guess? They're Fantastic Four fans. They're not happy with this version, and they want to talk about WHY they're not happy with this version. Again, why tell people to stop talking about a specific adaptation they don't like? I see negative remarks about loads of other films on this site. I don't recall one of the rules of posting being that every comment made has to be made in mindless devotion to a film.

On a positive note, I hope nobody has a heart attack if Trank's really been canned for his bad behavior. I'm sure the film won't be the worst film ever made even if it's a massive disappointment. I hope to someday enjoy it as a silly popcorn movie, not unlike Super Mario Bros. The Movie or Dragonball Evolution. It'd be great if a good RiffTrax treatment came out.

 

[Whiskey Tango]

why continue to post about it?

Because I intend to help it get as much bad press as possible. I feel as a longtime, loyal consumer of Fox media as well as a fan of the FF for many years that I have been betrayed, insulted and generally screwed over by this joke of a production and I have no intention of just bending over and taking it. I'm real sorry if that clashes with your own agenda (Must support makers of X-Men movies at all costs!) but that's just how it is.

You are now on probation.

Why you may ask. Well....in case you forgot this post from Kelly (an administrator on here) made just 6 days ago.... I repost it for you - http://forums.superherohype.com/showpost.php?p=30337825&postcount=449

People are allowed to have....AND....post opinions that you do not agree with.

[pavlov]

So I guess the positive people can't voice out opinions even in the positive thread. Saying that the other threads are hospitable is a lie.

With that, i bid you all farewell. ***flees***

Positive people Unite... Elsewhere!

 

[Incrediblejeff]

Yeah there is a pretty big amount of negativity and this was supposed to be the safe-haven I thought.I have no problem with people voicing opinions,but why can't we people who don't hate everything have atleast one place to discuss the film where we don't get attacked for liking things.

Martyrdom is the best, isn't it?

Yeah there is a pretty big amount of negativity

So? Why would people's opinions, however negative they might be, bother you?

Why would you care?

and this was supposed to be the safe-haven I thought.

From what? Differing points of view?

I have no problem with people voicing opinions

Clearly you do.

but why can't we people who don't hate everything

One step away from using the "lol haters " bit.

have atleast one place to discuss the film where we don't get attacked for liking things.

No one's attacking you or anybody else for liking anything this movie has released(what little it HAS released).

They're expressing their displeasure, some with more passion than others, at the film and what's being released about it. Which you, for some odd reason, and others in your boat, are taking personally.

Stop taking it personally, because you have no reason to, and it won't bother you anymore.

 

[Incrediblejeff]

Why are you attacking me?Did I specifically hit a nerve to the point where felt the need to be condescending.I just would like to have a normal conversation about the movie without being talked to like the way you just did.I'm trying really hard to be nice,but apparently that's doing too much.

Differing opinions don't bother me.There have been people on here I don't agree with who give good reasons and are civil.I just don't like when people are condescending.You know what I mean?

...are you serious?

No one is attacking you. There is not a condescending word in that post directed at you. All 100% serious.

 

[Dr Tactics]

I say just leave the rose colored glass wearers alone. let them have their space while the silence grows more deafening From Fox and Trank and their positivity has nowhere to go but down...

Be patient and watch this unfold..

Not at all. Talking about people who "hate everything" and wanting repose from them IS condescending, however.

*Sigh*,Look we can do this till the cows come home,but in reality this whole argument is pointless.We are arguing over what's condescending,and about a movie that we know nothing about.So essentially we are arguing about nothing.

In the interest of fairness though what's your biggest gripe about this movie?I wanna know seriously.
