Fantastic 4 - raped by the critics.

Post by Pext »

Seems as if this movie is crap.
Roger Ebert wrote: The Human Torch, to repeat, can burn at supernova temperatures! He can become so hot, indeed, that he could threaten the very existence of the Earth itself! This is absolutely stupendously amazing, wouldn't you agree? If you could burn at supernova temperatures, would you be able to stop talking about it? I know people who won't shut up about winning 50 bucks in the lottery.
SPLICEDWire wrote:Who are these half-wit Hollywood clowns that keep hiring cleavage-candy actresses with no measurable talent to play laughably bespectacled scientists in action movies?
Der Spiegel wrote: [...] impressing about this movie is only the consistency, with which "Fantastic Four" reflects the abilities of its protagonists: It stretches like old chewing gum, pursues no visible purpose, is completely brain-burned and leaves the audience with petrified expression.

Even the heroful punched out dialogue phrases, which let even Haim Sabans sense-free "power Ranger" look even like Shakespeare, don't help.

When will people learn that making this shit for kids just doesn't work... Sure, you can milk the money and get the toys more because the kids love it, but give it a bit of a darker edge and the film rocks.

Look at Batman. The last 2 fucking sucked, were jokes and bombed. Everybody everywhere hates them. Then look at batman begins, its an instant classic because its so much more darker and dirty.

Yes, I agree that BB was much better because of what it was really based on.

But lets face facts... It didn't NEED to be based on anything. If film makers have to BASE things on somebody elses work, then they have no talent at all. F4 didn't suck because it wasn't based on some great version of it, it sucked because the guy who did it was a no brained fog hat.

Take this for example. Its based on an amazing game, which fucks you over very, very badly at night. The game features the most amazing thing ever in a horror game... That fucking radio...

Now i know we will get the fog... But come on, its all up to the director for the film NOT to suck.

Like Doom the movie. It could of rocked as a film, but instead, they toyed with it waaaaaaaay to much for more $$$.

EDIT: Here are some shots of the silent hill film being filmed... And already we have no darkness and no fog. Woo.

Right, I don't need an answer, Doom's not out and you're fucking rating it before you've seen it, from a few shots.

Well done on being better than everybody then, it couldn't possibly be a bit of fun to watch. That's totally out of the question on the screenshots and things you've fucking read WITHOUT WATCHING THE FILM.

Nah, I just think you're a complete moron who posts shit. What's with the compulsion to yap about every film you ever think of watching?

Edit: I like the icon19, that's a nice touch, it sort of implies you're laughing rather than seething at being called out as an idiot.

You don't like being called an idiot do you?

Where are the examples I asked for? You know, in the other threads.

Oh yeah, you're making it up because you don't have anything.
