Surprised this site has posted it yet? It looks ok, i think im just getting used to the look of it now. So what do people think?
Where did you see that?Casual Shinji said:It's starting jell a bit better. It made me buy Billy Eliot as the Thing more at least.
And I rather liked that scene with Richards using his power to leap over something Elastigirl style.
The Thing still looks like a generic rock monster though.
You'd think so, but have you seen the latest Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice trailer? This is practically a typical Marvel (see: Ant-Man) trailer in tone by comparison.Ihateregistering1 said:Jamie Bell is "the muscle"? He looks like he weighs 140 lbs wearing concrete shoes.
So I guess Sue is the adopted daughter of that guy, but does that mean Johnny is still her brother in this one?
Anyway, doesn't look terrible, but wasn't the Fantastic Four comic always supposed to be kind of cheery and fun? This one looks about as drab and serious as you can get.
How is showing the diversity of different family types not believing in diversity? A sibling doesn't have to come from the same parent for them to be a sibling. There are blended families and sometimes kids get adopted. Its really not that big of a deal.Sapphirewave said:Honestly, I'm still a little upset that the Human Torch is black. Well, to be more accurate, my problem is not that he's black; my real problem is that his sister is still white. They are siblings and as far as I'm concerned, they should be of the same ethnicity. This feel like Fox trying to make it look like they believe in diversity, but are unwilling to go all the way because they don't want to risk having a black female lead. I don't see anything wrong with changing the race of a character (most of the time), but it really should be an all or nothing thing.
To avoid being completely negative, I will say that I do like the design for the Thing a lot more than the last movies.
I can see where you are coming from and I agree that there is not enough diversity in family types. However, the Invisible Woman has never been adopted in the past (or at least to my knowledge and about 5 minutes on google to check), so it feels like an unnecessary addition to her character just so that she can stay white. However I will admit that I could be looking too deep into this, so unless anyone else shares the same feelings, I'll hold off on commenting about race until after the movie comes out.mecegirl said:How is showing the diversity of different family types not believing in diversity?

And seeing how the Fantastic four is supposed to sorta be the first family of the marvel universe, showcasing different family dynamics is pretty fitting.
