Cool, looks like Sue will be the more aggressive Invisible Woman that only evolved after years in the comic book.

Looks like they are sticking at least somewhat with the super powers being related to the personality of each person.

The Dr. Doom character might be getting messed with, going on next to nothing but I'm suspecting we won't see a lot of exposition regarding him. Hey, it's a feature film, compromises etc., etc.

The choice of music was iffy imo but my generation isn't the true target audience I'm guessing.

Definitely didn't look low budget.

So far, so good.

AGH!

The Punisher iwth Dolf?

Ok, that was more then ten years ago, heh.

Only real good Marvel movie has been X-Men, and, I can happily say, X-Men 2. Spider-Man was good, Spider-Man 2 was not as good, but still acceptable, with the fight scenes between Spidey and Doc Ock the *only* saving grace.

I have not seen the second Punisher movie yet so can't comment on it.

The rest of Marvel movies have been crap, sorry, just my old grumpy comic colector and traditionalist opinion

The main issue I have with the coming FF movie, from the trailer at least, is the addition of a fith peson. I can only take it that somehow it will be fucking Doctor Doom, which is totaly fucked up. There's no reason they couldn't have melded the two origins together, happening at the same time during the movie, and lead up to the point of them intersecting in a nice big finale climax. But no, they gotta change the whole God damn origin of them for no real reason that I can see other then just becasue the writers want to 'make it their own' or some artistic bullshit reason.

Fantastic!







*cough* Ok, that was a dumb joke.

Seen it, frowned at the music, kinda seemed to like what I saw, except Thing. I'm not into FF, but compared to what I've seen drawn, the movie Thing looks... ...different...
