BC: We get the word that people at Fox are not happy with the upcoming Fantastic Four movie, directed by Josh Trank. While some have called it “Chronicle 2 rather than Fantastic 4″ , this is clearly not what the studio was looking for.
With the new The Crow remake coming soon, we take a look back at the 30-year-old cult classic original–and where the stars are now.
Kaam Chalu Hai Review: Based on true events, this movie is thought-provoking and inspiring
Rebel Moon Part 2 Review: This movie doesn't feel anything new or worth remembering, which is a shame.
Both Millar and Vaughn have said they are happy with what they have seen. If the studio doubts it now after they hired people to do the job they shouldn't have bothered making it.
Calling it Chronicle 2 doesn't help at all. Just cancel this movie already! Every little snippet I've heard about it is absolutely terrible.....
The problem they have is that if they try and start again then Marvel could easily swoop in and take the rights back without much of a fight. They were too close to a deadline and are now trying to hype up Trank's version of the comic book, but anything I hear about the movie just doesn't sound good.
Of course people will say they are happy with it, they wouldn't say it's garbage before they try and give the opening weekend a chance. Just have to see what happens, and check out the teaser at the end of the month.
That's a good thing for me, I really like Chronicle.
Trank maybe too green of a director. He didn't have much under his belt to prior to being chosen to direct a big film like Fantastic Four. A few episodes of a summer mini series and Chronicle. When Fox gave the greenlight to make Fantastic Four, it was similar to why Sony had to make The Amazing Spider-Man. The rights are worth millions and they want to keep them. I REALLY hope those rights go back to Marvel. Fantastic Four is kinda lame without the rest of the Marvel Universe to interact with them. I would pay good money to see Hulk vs Thing on the big screen...even though I know Thing would get his butt kicked. Heheheh...poor Ben Grim.
