I'm sure they'll screen it and then push it back to February 2020 right after.

I still think it's way too early. We're not going to see the new iterations of the X-Men or F4 characters until 2022 at the earliest.

I'd be more hyped for Fantastic Four. We've have plenty of really good X-Men movies. I'd rather see Disney tackle the Fantastic Four first.

All I know is that I still have an itch to see X-Men done right. But if I never see another F4 movie again, I could not care less. What I know of Dr. Doom is from those first two F4 movies, and I thought he was terrible. I'm sure he's better in the comics, though. Still, give me Magento all day long. Overall, I might be underestimating the general F4 interest based on my own (or lack there of), but I think you're overestimating the general F4 interest based on your own. It's probably somewhere in the middle, but either way, Marvel isn't going to tease F4 this early.

If the post credit scene doesn't include a Deadpool cameo, I will demand a refund.

true, but they could still start worldbuilding with references to it.

news reports about Latveria, referencing Reed Richards and his research.

Hell even a cameo of a pre-Thing Ben Grimm in Dr Strange.

I am betting people are more hyped for the idea of a good FF4 reveal and team than they are for more X-Men, even an X-Men team integrated in the MCU.

Ha, there's no way. X-Men are WAAAY more popular than F4. I have friends who don't watch superhero movies (much less read comic books) and even they could name at least two or three X-Men. Heck, *I* can't even name all four Fantastic Four characters. Regardless of my personal experiences with the franchises, though, X-Men are objectively more a part of pop culture. Fantastic Four feels about as relevant as The Flintstones in today's culture. And sure, if anyone can change that, it's Marvel, but in terms of raw anticipation before the fact, it's no where close.

Xmen MAY be more popular just because of SO many movies, but I can see this Marvel group making a FF world work...see GOTG, Black Widow, etc.

So I'd be careful saying "no way".

I literally said, "And sure, if anyone can change that, it's Marvel." My "No way" was in reference to the anticipation as it exists right now. As in, right now, there's no way the general population is looking forward to more F4 over more X-Men. But yes, once Marvel casts and conceives of a new F4, given Marvel's track record, of course it could and likely will be something special at that point. But this whole convo was in reference to teasing F4, at the end of this month, in the Endgame credits.

Marvel can make anything popular, but ya, X-Men is currently way more popular with the casual fan.

The first and second Fantastic Four movies are why I have/had a really hard time getting into Marvel stuff

Way too soon to see anything, but with the right director I can totally see them making F4 work like GOTG. Reed Richards in particular is a super interconnected character in the Marvel universe and could lead to some really interesting thing.

Thinking about the potential of mutants being introduced into the existing MCU, however, gets me excited.

I've said it before, but the way to make a good, modern F4 movie is to change Reed's powers. The stretching thing goes straight to comedy, and I don't think F4 works in the MCU as a comedy.

The body horror angle had potential, but that didn't work last time, do changing it up is what I would do.

I also think that the F4 franchise should build to Reed being a villain.

So some early in the movie footage was screened in the last 24 hours as part of the big exhibitor event going on this week.

What is relevant is that the summary of the content showed matches 100% to some of the story leaks that came out about 3-4 weeks ago, which legitimizes a lot of those leaker's content.

In other words, full story spoilers are more/less confirmed to be out there, so beware if you do not actively seek that stuff out.

---

thanks for the heads up...

so we're clear, none of that crap should be posted on this thread until after opening weekend, right? if not, then i'm checking out.

Tony Stark is Jon (Snow's) Stark's father.

SPOILERS!!!!

Seriously. This whole thing has been YEARS in the making. We should try to do our part to not be the reason it's spoiled for someone.

I definitely won't even be seeking this info out, much less posting anything remotely tied to it.

I myself wouldn't post spoilers, it's a dick move for certain. But come on people, if you're really that concerned about it you shouldn't even be reading this thread or any of the related threads. It's like looking for an excuse to get offended.

I don't really agree with this. The thread exists because people are excited about the movies. That excitement is only going to grow for the next three weeks. Read at your own risk, of course, but I think it's reasonable to expect some courtesy regarding spoilers.

---

Especially if there's gonna be a spoiler discussion thread, which I feel like there probably will be.

I know I'm already seen as the spoiler nazi, but yes. This.

I mean, we all discuss this and agree...it just always seems as though one guy comes by and Leroy Jenkins the whole thing

Which is why I'm going to a showing that starts before the earliest ones end. Unless someone is live-posting from the theater or something big leaks, I should be safe.
