you think comic book films have to beholden to the comics.
I don't.
You're an old curmudgeon stuck in your own shytty taste and don't want to see things done differently.
Your opinion is one note and boring. Just go read the comics. You hate anything that strays at all and praise garbage that sticks to the formula no matter how old and dull it is.
If a studio does a novel adaptation, I expect them to follow the novel. If a studio does a video game adaptation, I expect them to follow the game. That's common logic. This doesn't mean a movie can't be good if it diverts from the source material, but as a fan why would you ever want this? That's why alternate realities and surrogates exist, so if you always wanted to know what an evil Superman story would be like, you don't have to whine to DC, you can just pick up Mark Waid's Irredeemable, and if you always wanted to see an R-rated Muppets movie, you can let The Jim Henson Company just do their thing and watch Peter Jackson's Meet The Feebles instead.
FF needs to be shaken up.
The comics don't sell, the movies have been terrible
Give it an R rating,let the writers do what they want.
No holds barred. I thought the only real interesting part in all 3 FF films was the body horror scenes in the new one.
That made me bit the rest of the film didn't match it in tone or anything else.
It can be done and done well. Does the world need another pg 13 comic book film? There is only so much you can do and so many of these stories and characters do have similarities.
I'm not saying a rated R FF would be garaunteed to be good,I'm saying i want to see what it would look like.
Fox should take this market.
The comics sold when their was a good writer on them (Jonathan Hickman, who pushed the book into the top 10 sales for months), the movies have been terrible because of shytty film making. Again, for someone who originally claimed "don't be grim, dark and edgy. Be adult", you really continue to expose yourself as a fool because what or what you can't do with a story or characters isn't defined by the MPAA rating, it's defined by the quality of storytelling and film making. And if you might want to know what an R-rated Fantastic Four would be like? Just read Warren Ellis' Planetary. So FF can be left alone and stay true to what it is.
