Original Fantastic Four Reboot Story Sounds Amazing


Original Fantastic Four Reboot Story Sounds… by filmjunkee

Jeremy Slater was brought on by 20th Century Fox to bring new ideas to the Fantastic Four franchise. What he came up with was definitely “fantastic”. How much did Fox use of it? Basically nothing from it. Prepare those new boners.

In addition to Annihilus and the Negative Zone, we had Doctor Doom declaring war against the civilized world, the Mole Man unleashing a 60 foot genetically-engineered monster in downtown Manhattan, a commando raid on the Baxter Foundation, a Saving Private Ryan-style finale pitting our heroes against an army of Doombots in war-torn Latveria, and a post-credit teaser featuring Galactus and the Silver Surfer destroying an entire planet. We had monsters and aliens and Fantasticars and a cute spherical H.E.R.B.I.E. robot that was basically BB-8 two years before BB-8 ever existed. And if you think all of that sounds great…well, yeah, we did, too. The problem was, it would have also been massively, MASSIVELY expensive.
