[b]Fantastic![/b]
The trailer kicked, but the Thing suit was a little unnerving. It looked OK,but a little on the creepy side. But the hero that shined was the Human Torch. Jumping off a building, going full torch and then out running a missle. My god, that was why this movie was made! Doom looked cool too. July 4th not going to get here soon enough!

The cuts in the teaser were extremely short and quick, which makes it hard to get a good feel of how this might turn out, but I still live by the rule: Either good or bad, never judge a film by it's trailer!

Looks very promising to me, I'll have my fingers crossed until July 4th. Can anyone tell me what the name of the song playing in that trailer is?

[b]Fantastic Crap[/b]
There are so many wrong reasons for this movie to come out, that the right reasons are overshadowed by them.
The good reasons, Stan Lee’s first comic book, that depicts the elements, earth, water, fire, and wind. But also gave birth to some of the best Marvel villains to date, Dr. Victor Von Doom, Galactus. And of course some of the better hero’s, Silver Surfer, etc.
But this movie is going to chap my hide like a pair of cheap boxers. Why? Simple, first we look at Invisible Woman (note the word woman) and she looks more like the daughter of Mr. Fantastic then the soon to be wife of Reed Richards. Way too young and way too slutty to come across as older sibling to Johnny Storm (her brother). Good grief, pick up a comic book or hit the Net, do some research before you start casting , it’s not that hard. And lets look at The Rubber..er..um, I mean The Thing. He looks more ridiculous then the first Thing, you know, the movie that (almost) hit the silver screen back in 1994, but went straight to prize in a Happy Meal. Trust me on this one, that lame movie, that had the nerve to grace the name of Marvel did have one high note, the Thing did look very close to the comic book. And that was the only thing that movie did right.
I won’t talk about how poorly they did Dr. Doom, or “Stretch” I will leave those characters for a later post.
So should I continue on, or should we wait and see when it hits in July? Well True Believers, you will have to tell me what you think, since I will be spending my time watching Revenge of the Sith.

The trailer look kind of cool, but it does not look promising plot wise. And you gotta admit plots make or break movies. So you got 5 people turning into super humans. One turned evil so they fight. Okay... we already even know who win.... Oh well maybe that's the constrain you have with the first movie. The first X-men film's trailer did look more interesting with less special effects though.

[b]Correction[/b]
Victor Von Doom a.k.a. Dr. Doom - never turned into a Super Villain like the FF. He was so badly damage from one of his experiments he needed the suite of armor to protect his scared body.
While in his armor, Dr. Doom can lift (press) approximately 2 tons. He is one of the smartest men in the world and has an almost endless variety of weapons and equipment at his disposal. At the very least, Doom's armor contains a force field and concussion beams -- though more weapons may also be included. Dr. Doom also has the ability to switch minds with another person and he possesses a small amount of mystical knowledge as well.
Victor began to increase both his scientific and mystical knowledge on his own - not mutated like the FF.
But will this movie do one of the greatest villians justice - my money will be on Nope
