Fox Won't Make Another FANTASTIC FOUR Movie Until They Get it right

*Autbot_Benz* · 02-24-2017, 03:56 PM

Josh Trank's Fantastic Four movie is one of the worst reviewed comic book adaptations of all-time and it just so happened to be a massive flop at the box office as well. As a result, the future of the iconic foursome has been left in doubt, though it's fair to say that the vast majority of fans would be happiest with them returning home to Marvel Studios, thanks to villains like Galactus and Annihilus.

Talking to Collider recently, producer Simon Kinberg was asked about what's next for the property, and it sounds like the Fantastic Four is now pretty low on the list of Fox's comic book priorities. "I have no idea," he admitted. "I think the truth is we would not make another Fantastic Four movie until it was ready to be made. One of the lessons we learned on that movie is that we want to make sure we get it 100% right, because we will not get another chance with the fans."

Fox only has so long to sit on the Fantastic Four franchise before the rights revert, but after three failures, you have to believe there's a chance they'll let that happen now. Then again, they might just rush out another reboot at some point in the next few years. We'll just have to wait and see, but what about a different cut of Josh Trank's version after it was totally changed via reshoots?

"I don’t know the answer to that in terms of whether or not fans will ever see it. I think B-roll is probably the place where they will see it. And for us, it’s in the past in the sense of lessons learned and we would love to make another Fantastic Four movie. We really believe in that cast, and I think the lessons that we learned would help us make a more consistent movie than we did the first time."

Here is an Idea you failed 3 times trying to make FF Give the Rights to Marvel

Hahaha, this idiot thinks that fans will give Fox another chance ever!

**Jester** · 02-24-2017, 05:39 PM

But...how will they know it's right without first making a new FF movie?

*NinjaPug* · 02-24-2017, 06:08 PM

Wait, you didn't think you needed to make it 100% right when making the last movie? I mean, it was obvious you were just putting a movie together to keep the rights but why would you admit that? **** Kinberg.

I really want the second infinity war movie to end with scarlet witch saying her no more mutants line (except change it to universe or something like that) and the teaser scene will be the opening from joss whedon's astonishing x-men #7 where the x-men and the fantastic four showmup to beat down one of the mole man's monsters. Throw in Spidey, and the avengers. Have them bicker and make spidey say something like come one guys we can all work together on this.

Use this to cast a new iron man a new fantastic four, a new x-men team maybe even a new thor. Put evan peters and elizabeth olsen as the maximoff twins

*Shark_Blade* · 02-24-2017, 06:29 PM

Only the first F4 is decent. Silver Surfer was stupid boring and the new reboot was a LOT WORSE.

The truth is, Fox won't make another Fantasitic Four movie until they have to make one to retain the rights. And it will be just as terrible and inane.

Anyone born after the 80's shouldn't have much interest in the Fantastic Four anyway. Except maybe the Thing, he's the only good one.

Speak for yourself.

Plenty of people are still interested in them.

I wouldn't mind seeing a Netflix Fantastic Four show. If not a movie by Marvel in the future

That wouldn't work at all. It would need a really big budget.

*CyberCubed* · 02-24-2017, 09:28 PM

I understand why the Fantastic Four were popular originally in the 60's, etc. because they were among the first Marvel superheroes, but nowadays they feel so irrelevant.

They're like fourth tier behind Spiderman, X-men and the Avengers. I know old timers or huge fans of the comics still like them, but when I think of Marvel I think of Spiderman, X-men and then the Avengers. Fantastic Four are last.

*sdp* · 02-24-2017, 09:34 PM

Avengers wasn't really a "thing" though until the MCU, before that no one knew who they were outside of comic nerds, they were no Justice League. The Fantastic Four are not just a product of the time, they're awesome, more than superheroes they are adventurers like Indiana Jones. It took me a while to "get" F4 but when I did I got hooked, it's a shame most people think they're just irrelevant heroes.

I still imagine if Fox had kept DareDevil and they had built a "Marvel Universe" of their own with F4/X-Men/DD. I was really mad they missed opportunities of having some X-Men at Sue's wedding in the second F4 movie and I thought about this before the MCU was even a thing. Like I've mentioned Marvel can only do so much with their properties and they already have tons they don't need more.

It's no longer "a second movie" any more than Justice League 2 is no longer "Justice League 1, Part 2." It's Avengers 4.

It's filming in conjuction with Infinity War and comes out a mere year later. I can see why he worded it the way he did.

*neatoman* · 02-25-2017, 04:53 AM

"Until they get it right"? They had three goes at this, all sucked and the last one was just an excuse to keep the movie rights for a few more years. It wasn't even just a bad movie, it failed to get anything right about the Fantastic 4.

The Fantastic 4 are all about exploring the wonders of the universe and the movie was almost entirely set in a bunker and other closed off settings.

Not untrue. Though I've not seen anything about the back-to-back nature since the official announcement of "no more Infinity War Part 2" that appeared to preclude it. Though it's more than possible I've just not seen it or forgotten it.
