Marvel’s big mistake was trying to tell the Marvel Civil War story before bringing the FF, X-Men, and Spidey on board to do a multi-part epic. A rare example of Marvel not thinking big enough.
I think the right way to do an MCU FF movie is to go heavy on the comedy and to forego a retelling of their origin story.
Yeah, 100% this. Only thing FF have going for them is retro charm. They need to lean hard into everyone being a goofy Sunday morning cartoon character, esp Dr Doom. Also, they need MF Doom for the opening credit sequence. Their origin story should just be done during the opening credit sequence.
lol I thought that was an antisemitic cartoon at first. I’m not great at math.
One of the wildest things about the Marvel universe is that everyone acknowledges that Norse mythology is 100% real and actual viking gods are running around but there doesn’t seem to be a big paganism movement. I’d snap-convert to paganism if Thor showed up and saved New York City, what has Jesus done for us lately?
