Fantastic Four Rise of the Silver Surfer

I was quite disappointed with the first F4... it seemed to be focused on a younger target audience... which is fine. I know, I'm an adult and these are comic book movies for kids, but the reason these films are being green-lighted is because we comic book reading kids of the 70's and 80's are now a powerful financial force and the studios want our money. Yet it seems that they forget that we are not 8 anymore. We may want comic-book movies but now we have higher expectations. Batman Begins, 300, Sin City... these worked for me. Ya, F4 isn't a gritty dark graphic novel, but it didn't have to be so lollipop and cotton-candy looking. I now require a bit of drama, plot, and character development. It's just a shame they didn't make all these movies in 1984... that would have rocked.

I'm still looking forward to 'Watchmen', "Batman vs Joker', and yes, 'Transformers', which looks like a great summer afternoon popcorn movie.

You have to love those shots!

I was also looking on ebay for the Original Transformers and I was bumed I could not find any. I saw the new Transformer toys and they were no where near the quality that they were in the 80's. Not one of them is metal. They are all cheap plastic. What a bummer. Does not surprise me. Toys now a days are made to be disposable. I really want to see Transformers and I probably will see F4.

I am glad to hear that F4 was good, and that Galctus had a part in the movie. I guess it would be hard to make a giant figure like Galactus. With the Watchmen are they doing it as a live action or cartoon?

I heard the other day that Marvel signed on with Disney. Hopefully that will inject some good blood into the upcoming Marvel movies in the next few years.

With Ghost Rider I knew it would not be good when I saw they pick Nicholas Cage, very annoying. I think that Vin Diesel would have been better for that part. That is just me though.

Jessica Alba or Biel. It's a bit like apples and oranges. Alba the cute girl next door, Biel with the mind-shattering physique. I mean look at those shoulders...

And it doesn't help that you guys show the best pictures of Alba, and only mediocre ones of Biel.

In the interest of being "fair and balanced":
