Next up in the death-grip hold? FOX is prepping a reboot of their FANTASTIC FOUR film franchise. Sure that&#8217;s no secret, but director Josh Trank&#8217;s take on the whole thing may completely rewrite the origin story of the fantastic family. And this has quite a fanboys in a uproar.<\/p>\n<p>As far as I&#8217;m concerned, to the hard-core fans, get over it.<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s remember, the origin of the Fantastic family is campy as hell. Let&#8217;s think about it: a boyfriend, a girlfriend, a brother, and a best friend go into space only to get hit with cosmic rays, and get superpowers.<\/p>\n<p>That shit is campy, sure may have worked in the &#8217;60s, and even though FOX tried to keep true to it by trying to modernize it with their first attempt&#8230; I think we all can pretty much agree it didn&#8217;t work.<\/p>\n<p>So, let&#8217;s get over it. Sure, at least for me, FOX doesn&#8217;t have my confidence with comic movies&#8230; especially with MARVEL titles. Bryan Singer &#8220;X&#8221; movies not withstanding. But I can definitely appreciate needing to rethink how to approach a film. So I am personally intrigued to see where this goes if reports ring true about the change.<\/p>\n<p>How about you?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So it&#8217;s no secret with Disney&#8217;s purchase of MARVEL, and MARVEL themselves producing a pretty solid and entertaining movie universe, other studios are holding on to their MARVEL film rights with the strongest of death-grips.
