    If it's as good as the last one, I'll find a drove and stay away. Plus side: - That god-awful Alba creature isn't in it. Nonplus side: - Not Marvel Studios. - Announced proudly as coming from the "X-Men: Days of Utter Garbage" people. - Conceptually, it doesn't look anything like the Fantastic Four -- it should be more Jetsons than Dark Knight. - The way they keep adding "token blacks" would piss me off royally, if I were black. There'll probably be a token Chinese actress in it, too -- gotta con those minorities into handing money over at the box office, no? - Hollywood ain't a place that gets things right the second time around.

    Don't see this as a postive or negative.

    Meh. Never saw the movie.

    So? It's a movie, meant to entertain.

    Yeah. People should get the job because they, well, deserve it, not because of the color of skin. But, if you've got two people of more-or-less equal talent, I don't see any problem giving a leg-up to someone of a group who've been discriminated against...

          Too few original movies. I get tired of seeing that Marvel logo.

            Actually, most of the original movies have been produced lately have come from the Marvel universe.

                            Which costs less? a. Getting new stories written. b. Rehashing the same few stories again and again.

                              Agree with your point but the reboots should better than existing series at-least not bad. Like Nolan's Dredd, Batman series Not like Robocop, recent Godzilla, Amazing spiderman, Ninja Turtles, etc.,

                                That had nothing whatsoever to do with Judge Dredd. It was essentially a poor remake of The Raid[^]. At least the Stallone movie had the right look.

                                    Trailer[^] Looks good. Looking forward to it.

                                    Looks ok. I liked the two other FF movies, so I'm definitely going to see this one. The only thing that irritates the shit out me every time they decide to "re-heat" a superhero is that we have to see FOR THE ELEVENTY-SEVENTH time how Peter Parker became Spiderman and how Bruce Wayne became Batman etc. Why can't they just move on, assuming that we have already seen one of the zillion movies about that before?

                                      Agree with your point but the reboots should better than existing series at-least not bad. Like Nolan's Dredd, Batman series Not like Robocop, recent Godzilla, Amazing spiderman, Ninja Turtles, etc.,

                                      I disagree. A reboot for me means a rehash of the story made in a different way - different director, actors, script, staff etc. so it can't be the same. It all really depends on who gets to make the movie. Of course I always wish for movies to be at least as good if not better than the existing series but that isn't the case. As you have pointed out Robocop, Spiderman and Ninja Turtles were all disappointing. Recent Godzilla was great in my opinion.

                                        So? It's a movie, meant to entertain.

                                        Yeah. People should get the job because they, well, deserve it, not because of the color of skin. But, if you've got two people of more-or-less equal talent, I don't see any problem giving a leg-up to someone of a group who've been discriminated against...

                                        That's reverse discrimination. The ability to get a job should not rest on the color of someone's skin, or perceived wrongs impressed upon that person by imagined oppressors. In short, what you said is a crock of sh|t.

                                          That's true. But since we all discriminate every day, it doesn't mean much.

                                          There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.
