Amy this is a very interesting point. How long will the superhero movie boon last? As someone who's always been a geek, it's been pretty cool and I will say most of the movies I think have been done very well. So I think one key is the fact that they're making good movies. That's one reason they keep making more. But it will be interesting to see how long it lasts. It shows no signs of slowing down at the moment. And it does make it a pretty awesome time to be a geek!

I was never interested in this movie after hearing about how much change they we're doing to the story of the "FF" especially making Doom a "evil blogger" I mean they do existing lol but really?and after seeing the trailers for Star Wars and Attack on Titan which you should post this trailer like getting a kiss on the forehead....and it didn't change my mind about the movie I'll wait till its out on Redbox.

First off thanks for the tip Charles about the Attack on Titan trailer. I need to go watch that! Second, I will say after seeing this trailer I'm a little more excited to see this. I really liked how The Thing and Doom look visually. I didn't know they were making Doom an "evil blogger" That's an "interesting" choice. Guess we'll have to see how that works. I'm one of the few people apparently who actually liked the first two Fantastic Four movies and thought the casting for those was spot on so I certainly don't need another FF movie but I'll go see it.

Well, I made a comment about not being a fan of the Batman v Superman film. It was because I didn't like that version of Batman. I think my lack of interest is from the use of the same superheroes. If they would just target more of the unknown superheroes maybe that would make a difference. It would be great to see something fresh and new. Superheroes make a big impact for the public because they give people hope among dark times, inspiration to do good/save the world and etc. I don't know. Just a thought. I'll see this movie eventually when it is released.

I agree Kacy it can definitely be cool to see more unknown heroes and a fresh take. That's something I tried to do with my Super Knocked Up series :) I will say Marvel has brought out some not as well-known heroes. Guardians of the Galaxy is of course a great example of this. To a somewhat lesser extent, so was Iron Man. He was not a household name among non-comics fans before the movies. and Ant Man I doubt hardly anyone outside the geek world has heard of. So it's cool they're trying some lesser known heroes. What I'd really like to see is more female-centered superhero movies. Like a Black Widow or Birds of Prey movie. Those would be awesome!

At first I wasn't looking forward to this film. Now, the more I see of it the more convinced I am it may be one of this summer's sleeper hits!

You could be right Rod! I agree the more I see of footage the more I'm coming around to it. Thanks so much for your comments!

I'm actually excited for this Ultimate Fantastic Four version of the movie. I'm a little bit curious as to how the new origin story will flow and play out but over all I think it's going to go over well. I mean it had to be different b/c Captain America can't be Johnny Storm too! :)

Glad to hear you're excited for it Sasha! Yes it will definitely be interesting to see how they do the origin story this time around.

I really want to see this! I think the cast is great and there is some great comedic elements to this! The only thing that bugs me about the trailer is that it was pretty much just a ton of really quick cuts that fade to black... a lot. I almost felt like I was going to have a seizure. haha.

initially I wasn't interested in this but the trailer has changed my mind - not source material accurate- ages of characters too young - an adopted Sue Storm - who cares - I think it'll work
