There might be a more serious FF3 and here's why.........

Once again, they had their chance for this go around and they failed to do it.

I blame the fans who so desperately wanted to get fooled again.
 
No its not.


Let's not turn rhis into a bashing thread now.

gaven't you heard the sayijng "If you don't have nothing nice to say don't say anything at all"

Sorry but I was reacting to the fact that everyone else in the Four besides her wants a more serious tone (not dark, but not ******ed).
She even knows that's why she got Sue Storm, her two breast friends in the front and her one asset in the back.

She does?
 
Hell, I think the first FF movie had more intensity than this one. And anyone who says Sm2 was less intense than 1 would get slapped silly. The train scene took super hero movie intensity to a whole new level, and it really did look like the end of Spider-Man when giant sandman was beating him, I felt every blow.
I'm not quite sure how intense a PG movie can get, but I can tell you they lost a big part of the audience with that PG rating from lack of intensity. They dropped the ball.

The scene that really stands out for me was when the FF was trying to stop that ride from falling. I think that was the most intense moment. Now if they had done something like that times 2 for the final battle, that would've been great.

A scene that would've really sold the movie is an early fight with the Silver Surfer, with all members giving everything they had, and Surfer still tossing them around. Finally, leaving them all unconscious.
Also, ginat galactus trying to suck the earth dry with the FF all over him.

Again, there wasn't a feeling of urgency, even when Galatacloud was coming. Spider-Man could've replaced the whole fantastic four easily in this movie. And I shouldn't be saying that. Put them in situations that only a group of superheroes can escape from when they work together.

I want an intense Fantastic Four movie, they might have gained some kiddie viewings with the PG rating, but they lost alot of the male older demographic with that. Give the public an intense FF movie and the public will make that movie a huge success.
 
It's too late in the game now for a change of tone to really matter.
 
If they make a third film they shouldn't make it as lighthearted. I don't want it to be super dark or anything, just not as childish. Keep in the humour like the comic ,but when the villian or danger is around they should up the stakes a little more.
 
Save the "serious and dark" for the likes of Ghost Rider or the Punisher.

FF should be for all ages.
 
I get the distinct impression that Chris Evans doesn't know what the hell the Fantastic Four are about. Even when they go "more serious," they're never really THAT serious. It's always got a tone of fun to it. Then again, I've gotten the impression for a while now that Evans kind of resents the character he's playing because he has to be the goofball and he considers himself a "serious actor." :whatever:
 
Ironically, in interviews, Evans always seems to be the most serious of the 4. :huh:

I guess he's just a really good actor.

Yeah, well, basically he's very serious about acting. He wants to direct, he wants to hone his "craft" in serious independent films. That's why I think he probably resents being Johnny...
 
Well, I never got that message of it being like that. All I got is needing of change. Change as in growth. They are a family, they are bound to get more mature. So I'll leave it at that.
 
If they hire him in a restart, perhaps he'll get what he wants. Though, by the time they restart this he may be so old he'd fit in better to Mr. Fantastic's role...
 
I think there was one line missing that just shows how off this material is.

I think at the end of the movie something was said by Reed to the effect of, "Who says we have to be normal to start a family?"

Here's what should've been said.

"No matter what happens . . . we are a family."

No one working on this movie even had the insight to put that in there. It just would've been perfect.

And to those who respond with, "well technically they aren't a family" blah blah blah. They are family, that's the whole point. Family is NOT defined by blood ties. Family is more than just being related by blood. Fantastic Four as a comic even though only Susan and Johnny are related understood that.

It's that essential element of the comics that makes it a comic. It's the "with great power comes great responsibility" of Fantastic Four.
 
God please, I'm pleading lord NOT ANOTHER FANTASTIC FOUR MOVIE!

The 1st one was god awful, about as action packed as making a ham sandwhich (untoasted), and the second one was not nearly as entertaining as watching acrylic paint dry, only to repeat the process, but a third???? Good grief.... Could there be a less interesting group of characters, in a less action packed movie NOT made by Hallmark? Oooh I hope Dr. Doom is the villian in the 3rd one too, that would be super original and exciting. Also I hope they have more scenes of people standing around talking, I loved all 99 minutes of that in the 1st one and 85 minutes of it again in the second. I cant wait for the third, in fact I'm so excited I'm going to go ahead and burn $8.00 of my money now.
 
Who said there would be a third movie? As SLYspyder stated, we need a more intense Fantastic Four. This PG rating didn't help at all. It appealed more to the kiddies.

Funny. If you said that about Alba a few people would come at you like a spider monkey and scissor kick you in the back of the head.

Well... with the exception of Chiklis and, to a lesser degree, McMahon, it's no secret that most of the cast knew nothing of the FF before taking these roles. So I'm sure that, if she said something equally out of place, the claim could safely be made.
 
I think Evans made a decent case in that MTV interview. The Puppet Master is Alicia's stepfather, so he's more connected to the team emotionally. I think Franklin might be a mistake though, after Superman returns.

We should be fine if they leave him a normal kid and not a superbaby.
 
I thought FF2 hit the right tone that it needed, but there were just a couple of lighter scenes that could've been sacrificed. Nothing significant should be changed. It gets a little redundant when all of these movies are always so dark and serious. Spider-Man 3 threw a wrench into the machine and not everyone liked it.
