FANTASTIC FOUR (2005) BREAKDOWN! Easter Eggs & Details You Missed

[@djharris5048]

people give this movie flack but i personally enjoyed it

[@Mithrandir39]

I really enjoyed both of these movies. FF was always my favorite comics when I was young.

Same!!

Idc what anybody ever says, The Thing’s practical outfit is so freaking good! It brings a real-ness to the F4 powers! Love it!

The mirror scene with Johnny is peak comedy

[@MikeMiller-j6y]

the lisa simpson one...dead

[@jamess359]

Peak? If that's the case, then comedy is definitely dead

[@youngsuperknight_2k674]

I’m hoping that Joseph Quinn does the 4 at the end of the movie

[@ericmagana3215]

You expect to see the thing cause you saw him if rock shape in the trailers, so you expect the secondary effects to pop right away , but it hasnt yet, lol , it sure is a way to subvert expectations

[@kylecarter1599]

The FF weren't NASA astronauts. They were a private group of explorers who defied the government and went into space on their own.

[@michaelpelaez7468]

Just have fun with it. If NASA is in the movie them cool. This is a Marvel movie not a documentary.l😅

I really love how Reed even goes, “Johnny, supernova!” and Johnny goes, “I thought we agreed that was bad?!” while Reed has doomed wrapped up.

Me and my friend used to think that this was a bad movie, and then we watched it one night with the "f*ck it" mentality expecting it to be even worse than we remembered. After seeing it again, I honstely have no idea where we got that idea. It's great! Sure, not perfect, but a whole lot better than some MCU movies or X-Men movies. Ioan Gruffud is a great choice for Reed, Michael Chiklis was a good Ben Grimm (he played the tortured husband part really well), Jessica Alba is alright, but Chris Evans is just a joy on screen. His back-and-forth with Gruffud is peak Fantastic Four vibes, and all of them together really felt like a family at the end. This movie's problems were in writing and direction, otherwise it was great.

[@draykohunter6805]

Ioan's face is still what compare to when i think of who could play Reed

[@markchristopheryates6718]

Clear cut evidence that your mentality affects the enjoyment factor of a movie... That's why I know people's opinions of the modern MCU says a lot more about them then it's does the movies...

[@PVSR]

Absolutely, include the Incredibles in this rewatch. Maybe they won’t pop up in Secret Wars but there are definitely lessons that would apply. Elasitgirl and Violet especially use their powers in ways that are so much more creative than any “real” F4 movie ever has.

[@theflashfan4556]

I don’t know if anyone else thinks about it this way but i think that maybe a big reason behind why Chris Evans was cast as Steve Rogers in Captain America: The First Avengers was due to the fact that Chris had previously worked with Marvel on Fantastic Four and Fantastic Four: Rise of the Sliver Surfer

[@YetiVlogs]

The way he pronounced The Commish was hilarious.

[@thorinwoods2642]

I’m hoping Johnny and Ben’s relationship is like this in the MCU. That is one of the best parts of the comics.

[@Chuck_EL]

I did like how these movies got their banter down Also Pebbles was a nickname Johnny always called Ben in comics

[@ZaOnly420]

Julian McMahon was actually a great Victor von doom and I wish we could see him come back .

[@PassiveAgressive319]

He was awesome. He’d just starred in Charmed which has cult status

[@Chuck_EL]

Definitely got Doom's theatrical flaire down perfectly

[@jarianharris8240]

Me too. He fit the role perfectly. The ego, the vanity, the ruthlessness, everything

[@TheGohanSkywalker]

I unironically like this movie. It's goofy, yeah, but the casting for the F4 is pretty good overall, especially for Reed and Ben.

[@dphalanx7465]

Would have to say, as far as "on-point casting" goes, Johnny was far and away best; Reed & Ben were tied for 2nd; J.Alba's Sue was kinda weaksauce.

[@cosmicreader1312]

One of the superhero movies I know everybody hates, but I actually enjoyed, especially as a child

[@enoyna1001]

I enjoyed anything superheroes as a kid, no matter how shitty it turned out to be. I don't say this movie was shitty, though.

[@mr.iiconic]

​@@enoyna1001its a decent film, only really shitty when viewed as an attempt to adapt the Fantastic Four. Viewed in a vacuum as just a superhero movie, its quite alright.

Did not see this in theaters but after being a good kid (i was not) at the dentist for a cavity 🦷 i was awarded a MR FANTASTIC toy from this film at target. Still one of my favorites back home i have

[@christopherwonders2041]

Please include The Incredibles into the rewatch! Love and appreciate all the NR crew!

[@lexcellent99]

One of the funny things that stuck with me from this movie was when Victor is proposing to Sue, he says something about "four words that will change your life forever," (Ie. Will you marry me) but then Reed runs in and says "The cloud is accelerating" ....... four words that changed their life forever :D

[@TheRabbitRonin]

17:34 I like how this shot reminds of the first live action TMNT movie of Raph wearing pretty much the same thing 29:19 Just like what Storm said to Toad in the first X-Men movie

[@IronDad-ml3wq]

You are absolutely correct to include a review of Incredibles in this FF rewatch. The Incredibles is still the best FF movie we have yet, and it's the bar that the MCU FF has to clear.

[@MichaelSmith-dk1lc]

they don't have to do better than incredible. just actually stick to the source materials/characters and make a good story!

[@dphalanx7465]

@@MichaelSmith-dk1lc Well, the same thing that knocked the FF off the comic shelves for some years, is Marvel's fear that current readers/viewers aren't interested in the Family-oriented, Big Science-themed, Exploration/Discovery over Superhero-ing elements that have been the mainstay of FF for the majority of their existence.

[@MichaelSmith-dk1lc]

​@@dphalanx7465 marvel always seem to try to advertise the f4 as less as possible, but at least it's something different with different story elements than most mcu films (depending on what story they write of course). Almost every pixar movie is a family oriented adventure film or personal exploration of identity. and they are beloved. same can go for the f4 if they can stop themselves from changing everything that made the characters stand this long

[@tristankingcooldudewhite8392]

Another nod, Ben calls Victor Scarface, like the titular Al Pacino character of the same name. The more you know.

[@juanita-dark]

It's more fun to watch someone who actually likes the film to review it, ijs. FYI, if we're goingbto critique characters for makeup in combat/space/inappropriate situations we'll be here all day.

[@marcussantos4816]

This movie and the sequel were my first introduction into the four. Because like some people my knowledge of superhero’s at the time was through movies, shows, and sometimes online research. Also the reason why pyrokinesis and elasticity are my favorite powers.

[@TheThird1977]

Just started the video; been looking forward to this rewatch. For all of the faults the Tim Story movies had, the Doom mask and Silver Surfer's introduction were fantastically realised.

Fantastic Four (2005) and its sequel along with Daredevil (2003) and Elektra (2005) are certainly products of their early to mid 2000's time.

30:25 I think the MCU Fantastic Four coming from an alternate universe in the 60's would raise a lot of questions tbh, i.e.: - why wouldn't they be trying to get back to their home universe? - what happened to their home universe? was it destroyed? if so, why were they the only ones to survive? - are there 616 variants of the Fantastic Four that exist today or existed in the 60s? - are they gonna be a fish out of water (like Steve Rogers) if they're from the 60s? etc
