i can't figure this movie out

 

this is incredibly late in the game for, basically, the first tease of the movie... rumors are that it's not particularly good (possibly because of the lack of information), but I think that trailer looks ok - definitely different than the normal comic movie - and I want it to do well, because FOX seems to have turned around the X-Men franchise again and there's been rumors for a while now that F4 and the X-Men universe are one and the same and that they'll eventually crossover

I really don't even know what to expect or think.

 

On one hand, they have some good actors in these roles.  On the other hand, changing things like the Johnny and Sue (I guess she is adopted from what I heard) is kind of odd.  I guess it's not a big deal, especially if the director REALLY wanted those particular actors (they are good actors) and felt it would help the movie.

 

At least the movie seems more dark and inline with the X-Men movies.   So I'm still kind of at a wait and see approach, I won't be flocking to the theatre on release unless some early reviews are amazing.  I'm not a huge FF4 fan anyway, other than Doom/Surfer/Galactus being involved there.  I'm keeping an open mind though.

Let's call it was it is: The Johnny/Sue storm change comes out of Fox's need to have a token black guy on the team.

This wouldve been okay if there wasnt a plethora of other idiotic changes.

This is the only movie involving Marvel charcters I've committed to not seeing ahead of time. If it fails horribly then Fox will likely give up on it, and that's one more property Marvel has access to and one less studio trying to cash in on Marvel's recent success and oversaturating the market with crappy superhero movies.

Actually, moron, Josh Trank worked with Michael B. Jordan in Chronicle and wanted him for this role. Kudos to Fox for accepting that race is irrelevant to what makes Johnny Storm the human torch.

Now give me more of this post-15987-142241988706_thumb.jpg

lol right this does sound a lot better than "we wanted to appeal to every demographic"

but hey I'm sure you're extreme childlike reaction means you're not one to let stuff like that go over your head

Michael B. Jordan is one of the best young actors in the business.  I'm not sure this is the "token black guy" thing.  He's a great actor.  I remember seeing him in The Wire early on, Friday Night Lights, and then he was good in Chronicle and excellent in Fruitvale Station.  This isn't just some Wayans brother thrown in for comic relief.   

 

What I'm more worried about other than the fact they have a black guy in there is how they do Doom.

      Jalen Ramsey

      By TD alt · Posted

      I mean, I get why the media and some NFL and Carolina fans are saying that we don't have a real chance, but as many Huddlers should know, we won't know what we really have in this team until probably late September or early October at the earliest. And I'm not trying to be a homer, I'm just looking at things historically. Obviously I'm also looking at Bryce's "palatable" improvement the last half of last season (including being the catalyst for hanging with and nearly beating the Super Bowl participants), and the new additions that we've acquired overall. I'm also looking at the beginnings of a culture change--even if perceptibly subtle--to some degree indeed may take a foothold if things start falling the right way. But, overall, I'm still cognizant of the realization that things could just go south and that perhaps that Bryce could revert and flop, or that D & D (Dan and Dave) are not the answer, but I still am not ready to say "we're far away." Hell we could be close, albeit with growing pains, but even if we're on the course to bring legit in 2026, then guys like Ramsey would be welcome additions this season. That's just my take on it. I don't think we'll know that we're far away until some point in the season. If we can compete in the South...who knows?

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      You guys remember when the narrative on here was that Bryce would be chronically injured in the NFL due to his size and Anthony Richardson would be super durable due to his? You remember when the narrative was that Bryce was physically incapable of throwing a ball further than 20 yards in the NFL? You remember “I’ll stop complaining when he throws for more than 200 yards and looks like an NFL quarterback”? You remember when 60 sacks was his fault and not the offensive line, slow WRs, and terrible scheme? Pepperidge Farm remembers. It will always be something for some people. Whatever insanity they come up with will be quickly dropped to move on to the next thing. Bryce could have an MVP Super Bowl winning season and they would complain that we can’t run the tush push with him. It will always be something.

      For the Panthers fans still low on Bryce and demanding that he be a top-10 QB this upcoming season: What stat(s) will you need to see? Not the vibe you want, but rather what does he need to be top-10 in specifically? Passing yards? Completion percentage? Win-loss record? PFF grades? EPA? CPOE? Asking because this was asked before and... well... it ended up that the folks down on him didn't care about the numbers as much as they cared that they just couldn't get passed his size regardless of how he performed. It would be nice to get a straight-forward answer to that without the usual deflection and redirecting.
