Which Fantastic 4 film did you like more - Blu-ray Forum

GOAT · 12-16-2009, 02:09 AM

So I had thought for sometime now that I liked the first one more... but tonight I watched them back to back... I listened to the commentary on the first one to keep me entertained for the last 40 minutes and almost didnt watch #2... glad I did though. #2 is a really good film that I will be keeping in my collection!

I certainly wouldn't mind a third installment.

I honestly didn't like either of them. Too cheesy for my tastes. I don't like how they handled Dr. Doom, especially.

I know there have been recent rumors/talks of a complete reboot, and I'm all for it. Let's give it a couple more shades of serious, and see what comes out. And please, no Jessica Alba. She's a good looker but one atrocious actor.

I like both of them.

The original I like quite a bit. The second is just ok for me, but still enjoyable.

iam1bearcat · 12-16-2009, 02:13 AM

As much as I love comic books and cartoons being turned into movies, there are some adaptations I would never add to my collection. And the first fantastic 4 film is on that list. And I won't add Silver Surfer because I couldn't stand knowing I have the sequel but not the original. haha, OCD for me

I just couldn't stand the acting, the wooden dialogue and the completely unexciting plot / characters the film gave us. It also didn't help that it just didn't seem.... real. I know, I know. This is Fantastic Four. But it came off as too cheesy, almost like a made for TV movie that couldn't be too serous or dark. A big let down. But at leats Jessica Alba is in it

Neither, I hold them as high as Daredevil (at the bottom)

Haha +1. Definitely agree.
I voted for Silver Surfer because well... he was a favorite as a kid.

I bought the 3 pack when it was $24.99 as I figured the two FF movies were worth $12.50 to me

I've never seen Daredevil, but I'll give it at least once shot to see if I by some chance happen to like it.
If I don't like it that is saying quite a bit, I mean, I like Scorpion King...

CZAR · 12-16-2009, 02:35 AM

First was ok but shouldve been taking more serious and the casting was bad to me! The 2nd one was pretty cool actually! Doom was a beast! Got Em!!

Ben Affleck is just not a leading actor, which is why I haven't seen DareDevil or Gone Baby Gone. I like the second movie more due to more action, more laughs and more Alba. I think Evans is brilliant as Johnny Storm, not sure why he's so slammed for the role.

Ben directs Gone Baby Gone.. his (brother?) Casey stars in it... and its a DAMN fine movie.. I mean youve also got Freeman and Harris in there!

Diesel · 12-16-2009, 02:39 AM

I think I've said this in every thread about the Fantastic Four movies so I'll say it again.

I thought Chiklis as Ben Grimm was great.

I wish they'd bring him back when they reboot it....

Though that is unlikely to happen

Where's the option for the 1994 Roger Corman produced Fantastic Four movie?
