I'm curious. I'vew been looking over this thread for quite a bit and I wondered something. Am I the ONLY person who thought of Malice as a villian?!?! For those who don't know or don't remember. Malice was an alter ego of Sue created by Psycho-Man. This persona hated her family, was born out of Sue's resentment for them. Reed made her invisible, Jonny always stirs the pot, even Ben gets on her nerves some times. Susan loves her family to much to let these 'quarks' let her do anything harmful to her loved ones. But Malice is pure resentment.
Why I think she'd be a great villian in the movie? Well the thing about Fantastic four... It's a story of a super hero
family. They don't wear masks, they live very publicly and while they make mistakes they always try to fix it.
In my opinion of you want a good Comic movie then you need to look at the deeper part of what makes the comic what it is. X-men; Popular today because of being Gay; about choice and being differnt; individuality. Spider Man; We all have sort of a secret side of ours selves; Love story, one girl eternal; we put a lot of pressure on ourselves to work hard and for what? On the other hand, movies like Hulk, while still having the psychological angle lack any substance. Now Hulk was okay but it was more about the dual personality. What I liked about the Hulk was the 'lonliness of the beast'. But that might inprove if they make a sequal, who knows. Dare Devil and Elctra on the other hand.... Well, I'll try not to speak ill..
Sorry, a little off topic. Anyway the point I'm getting at is, if they want to make a great Fantastic Four then it should be about the Family. That's why I think the next villian should be Malice, mistress of hate. Because it's very real and very family.
Guess I rambled a bit. Sorry.
