"When you take on the responsibility, great power will come," he suggests, which webheads will quickly realize is a play on Spider-Man's "With great power comes great responsibility".

"We wanted to be honorable of the comics and where she came from," Clarkson tells GamesRadar+ and Total Film. "And I think that every hero has a moment where their mentor or someone important to them gives them a line which inspires them on the way and this felt like a nod to where she was from, while also making it hers."

Between this retard (who also co-wrote) and the fact the other screen writers were the dudes from fucking Morbius, I'm not surprised this film is turning out to be a complete shitshow.
 
I'm shocked none of the FF are dark-skinned.

Otherwise, it looks like they've made the mistake of going the Wonder Woman route with the Four making them "period piece" superheroes: I find it an uncomfortable thought that people subconsciously think certain heroes work only in the past. The FF were explicitly THE superhero, modernized: not just the technology and sense of wonder, but as less-than-perfect personalities, people with flaws.

I mean. It just feels.... off having major A-list heroes and teams regulated to the "past" in a given timeline and lose valuable connections/interactions for them and the rest of their universe alike. What makes the FF hard to modernize? If it's their technology, surely Ant-Man and Iron Man had the same issues yet no one had issues with THEM living in the present-day. Wonder Woman being associated with mythology and debuting in WW2 means she shouldn't be stuck in or "workable" only in World War days, Thor's supposed to be the literal thunder god and no one has a problem that he began his explicit superhero career at the same time the rest of Marvel's main heroes, so why can't Wondy first pop up in-universe with her basic origin (tweak it slightly if need be, I get it) to join the other DC heroes in their early days?
 
Casting news for the Fantastic Four is finally here. Seems to have been pushed back to 2025 and will premiere in the same month as Superman Legacy.
Vanessa Kirby is probably the only good casting here I can think of. But the issue is that she's playing Sue Storm, a character practically sullied due to being written by unironic, literal cucks since decades. Apparently comic writers are allergic to happy couples & good marriages unless it's fags & dykes. It makes sense tho, more than half of them don't have a happy married life since the 90's, you can see it leak in comics at times too.

I hope an Ant-Man is pulled & Sue is saved by the MCU like Scott Lang was (there's a funny story behind it).

Yeah, I'm okay with Vanessa Kirby as Sue, though she wouldn't have been my choice. The others are awful. I liked Ebon Moss as Micro in the Punisher series but I have no idea how anyone could listen to his voice and go, "Yeah, that's The Thing!". Joseph Quinn is far too weird and awkward looking to be heartthrob playboy Johnny Storm. Pedro Pascal is just an awful choice.
 
I'm reading that there is a TON of product placement in Madame Web, apparently Pepsi has a big spotlight or something.

Edit: I don't know if someone is fucking with me or not, but the climax of the movie sounds so fucking retarded lmao apparently it's Uncle Ben driving Peters mother to the hospital to give birth, and the bad Spiderman is trying to kill them but not because of Uncle Ben or Peter or anything but just cause the three chicks are also in the car. Uncle Been and fetus Peter are just there for a connection I guess.

Edit 2: Apparently the girls don't actually have powers or suits in the movie, it's just a vision of the future that happens at the start and end of the movie lmfao. Aren't they all straight up in suits in the poster?

Did they really skip casting Jim from The Office just to appease their quota? I get that Pascal is contractually obligated to Disney/Star Wars, but knowing how these movies are, he's going to be a spineless character who relies on Sue for everything.

The X-Men '97 trailer just came out:

What's the next Marvel shit to come out? Be interesting to see if every thing they do that's detached from Phase 1/2/3 does as poorly as Marvels did. I mean F4 has somewhat more name recognition than The Marvel's, but I still don't really see this doing well. And knowing that it's going to cost -$400M with advertising it will be lucky to break even.

The only thing it has going for it is no niggers in the forefront, so it might actually make money in China.

IIRC, he said once that he just didn't wanna do a capeshit role long-term due to his Jack Ryan series. Also, he probably just doesn't like it in general like many others who done superhero roles before him (Mike Colter also apparently didn't like playing Luke Cage much because he just didn't like capeshit in general).

His wife (Emily Blunt), is even more adamant (you can even say, she's "blunt") about her dislike of capeshit & how modern women are written, so it's probably not surprising either.
 
Imagine Helen Mirren in fricking Marvel slop. I'd unironically watch that.
Nobody has seen the film to confirm it, but Helen Mirren is supposed to be in Shazam 2, so Madame Web doesn't seem like a stretch.

Cyclops front and center. Come to think of it, X3 was way ahead of its time and wrote Cyclops just like a CY+n movie would have. I hope this is pure X-Men vs MAGA/Trumpler with no subtlety.

IIRC the only movie they have out this year is Deadpool & Wolverine, which is clearly meant to be a crowd-pleaser.

I'd bet money he saw the writing on the wall and bailed.

It doesn't make sense that they'd cast him in Dr. Strange if they didn't have any plans to use him. It's fucking weird that Disney seems tied to having the actors they can control portray *every* version of themselves in other universes but then pulled that shit with Mr. Fantastic.

I was fully expecting them to make Johnny Storm black like they did in Fan4stic.
Bets on how cucked they'll make Johnny?
