Pretty short, but still cool interviews with Simon Kinberg and Josh Trank about casting each role. Trank nails it on the head about Jordan being a guy who you want to hang out with and root for. I am getting pretty excited for this one. Curious to see how much more they show in the next trailer and what the reaction is to it.


And these interviews were on...something? Or you're talking about the ones in th OP?

The problem is, rebooting a movie that most people gave a solid "meh" to isn't going to get a lot of "I'll give it a chance" business. The first two FF's had Jessica Alba in them for god's sake and I still didn't really care. About the only thing they did do is get Chris Evans on the radar to be Cap, and prove again and again that Michael Chiklis peaked as Vic Mackey and it's all downhill from there.

Interesting listens, thanks. I have to admit they're at least casting actors who can legitimately act in these roles, will be interesting to see how they tell the story.

I'm sure I'll see it, but Star Wars stole the thunder for well everything this weekend.

Ok, so obviously N-verse/Ultimates version of the Fantastic Four. Wasn't a very popular comic run, but that's hard to judge against F4, we'll see how it translates to film.

That looks awful.

Why does it seem like everyone is trying to push their trailer out this weekend? SW, JP, BvS, and now Fantastic 4 all in a 5 day span? That's nuts. Does everyone feel the need to just post it and get it out of the way before Age of Ultron takes over the summer?

I liked the trailer. Not sure how I feel about their Doom though I kinda like the old school iron mask.

Huh. Spit in the eye of all of the people complaining about Johnny being adopted, huh?

I think the visuals look great, especially Thing. The Negative Zone angle is much better than what we've seen before. I also love the casting of Doom.

Film has a LOT to overcome on perception, no matter how good it is.

Yeah, that comment about Johnny was my first thought as well (although "spit in the eye" is a bit strong...).

I thought it looked good, actually.

So the Thing, is his dork made out of orange rock like the rest of his body?

It's to attach their trailers TO Age of Ultron, not get out of its way.

Definitely looks better than I originally thought it would....but it kind of had to being as I figured it would be "Straight-to-video"-ish in the first place. Will still probably see it in the theater.

Maybe the NEXT reboot of FF will be even better.

it's going to suffer the way the Judge Dredd reboot suffered. Most people (including me) never saw the new Dredd because all we knew about it was the cheeseball Stallone movie from the 1990s. I have heard the new one with Karl Urban is great, but I'm probably just never going to see it because of attrition.

When I think of the FF movies, I think "it must be Sunday afternoon on FX" not "Oh yea, get me to theater."

Dredd was pretty dang good. I watched it on Netflix a few months ago.

I doubt any of y'all will agree with me, but I thought the first fantastic 4's were good, silver sucre was ok... I saw them on tv, not In The theatre...

Just saw the trailer on jimmy kimmel...first thoughts were meh... Looked better than that first trailer. Michael Jordan was on and jimmy asked about him being black, and his "sister" is white... He pretty much was like anyone who ask about that are ignorant. I'm not excited about a black torch, but I don't really care much about the fantastic 4

I second this. I thought that the reboot was better than the Stallone version. It's a damn shame that it won't get a sequel.

Dredd was insanely good. As cheesily bad/fun as the first one was, this is just a good action movie.

I was going to recommend watching it on Netflix as it's definitely, at worst, worth the watch, but it seems to have gone back to DVD only land.

Ignorant because in the books Johnny is white, but in 2015 we have to go the PC route and change things up, and so people ask about it. Got it.

See, I have a problem with his comments. I don't have a problem with this particular change, but they are the ones who made a change from the source material that has been around for longer than the actor has been alive. People are going to question it and that doesn't mean they are necessarily disagreeing with it nor are they ignorant.

Seconded. Having some horrible reaction to the change is one thing, but there's nothing wrong with simply asking about it.

I mean it has nothkng to do with color... To me I like my characters to resemble to comics... White torch, spider man as a black guy, captain America is
ack and Thor the GOD of lightning is a WOMEN?!? What's next a white black panther? And what pisses me off is male models on the price is right!

The only character that I don't mind being black is Nick Fury, he was white in the comics, but I was not familiar with him until his character came to tv, and now I can't see him any other way
