This shit, and the fact that EVERYTHING has to be f***ing politically correct these days, even if it means damn the source material.
Much like Michael Bay's Teenage Alien Ninja Turtles, this turd waffle of a movie won't get a red cent from me.
Word is that Human Torch and Sue Storm are going to be government operatives/guinea pigs who team up (rather than being brother and sister) with newly mutated The Thing and Mr. Fantastic, escape government clutches and form their own super group hence known as the fantastic four.
Oh, and they are thinking of making Dr. Doom a woman.
Cause hey why not?
They are already pissing all over the source material, why not shit on it too.
In any case the new Mr. Fantastic is far too young, the new Thing is a nothing and the only real casting improvement here over the originals is the new Sue Storm.
But when all you have to do is top Jessica Alba, it doesn't set the bar very high.
Irony is the new black Human Torch will be the best acted of the bunch since he's being played by the excellent Michael B. Jordan of Fruitvale Station and The Wire.
Hell, if anything, this movie is beneath his talents.
Anyways I've absolutely zero interest in seeing this as it's already shaping up to be ten times worse than the shitty original versions, which I didn't think would be possible, but here we are.
This isn't Fantastic 4, and might as well be directed by Uwe Boll.
