Good lord, looks more like a SyFy original series than a big move studio release.

Yeah this was my thought as well. Looks bad but I expected as much.

 

[Delta Assault]

I'm trying to focus on The Thing, but my eyes keep switching over to the poorly Photoshopped flames at three o'clock.

This screams "Next On the CW"

Not really, people would probably be more excited about a CW Fantastic 4, the CW is comic adaptation heaven at the moment.

 

[overcast]

Holy shit guys calm down lmao. It's such a shitty pic of a poster that yes, looks shitty. Plenty of posters look bad, that's modern Hollywood for you.

Dude is ugly as shit.

Leave Miles alone!

But kevin feige's name isn't on this!!! How can we even remotely enjoy it

The thing looks great, shite poster but the trailer itself has shown that torch's flame effects are fine too so whatever, just a badly shopped promo piece

 

[Raistlin]

do you mean the thing blowing or the thing getting blown

yes

 

[Glass Rebel]

all of this won't matter anyway when Hobo Doom is shown.

 

[Pie and Beans]

Getting Thing close to right but then getting Reed, Sue, and Johnny wrong is... quite the 1 step forward, 3 steps b4ck situation.

 

[Schweinehund]

Looking like the thing. The second super hero movie I'll be seeing this year for sure.

Why are they wrong?

 

[Pie and Beans]

Why are they wrong?

An almost teenage, young looking Reed is about as far away from the "accomplished scientist" look as you could get.

A thoroughly plain jane not even striking non-blonde Sue Storm is not evoking any of the fierceness the true "best woman of Marvel universe" evokes.

Whatever to the obvious change, but no smirk, no emotion, just a soulless bored looking Johnny Storm covered in the worst flame effects imaginable.

None of the dynamic is there, not even remotely. Theyre entirely new, bored looking characters just happening to share a licensed character name because we gotta use it or lose it. Add on Hobo-Doom and just... why even bother.

 

[gutter_trash]

How in blue hell are you judging the quality of this movie based on a shitty photoshopped poster?

hey, I liked the 2005 FF movie.
I even like the Ang Lee Hulk movie about 100000x more than the stupid Ed Norton Incredible Hulk movie

they even got the 4 logo wrong by straying away from the iconic circular 4 logo for a rectangle?

...it's just a poster.

And I'm quite sure Kate Mara is blonde in this. She's also hot as hell, so whatever.

 

[Hidden One]

how in the blue hell does this lame asstastic look supposed to justify a reboot of this:

the 2005 is still good in my book

I agree. 2005 cast> New cast.

Thing in 2005 looks much better.

 

[Discotheque]

Lmao at that pie and beans post, yall are too much sometimes

Omg now some are saying the shitty chiklis thing looks better, I suggest you Google some images

 

[MetalFearSolid]

Looks better than the Thing from the first two Fantastic Four movies.

Lol, and yes it does seem like a weird poster. Miles looks like he is acting in another divergent movie again. I can't tell the difference.

 

[triplestation]

I knew this was gonna be good

Approved

 

[Foxy Fox 39]

Looks better imo

what? Kate Mara hot? what the fuck is wrong with people

 

[Pie and Beans]

2005 cast was pretty darn alright (Evans was perfection), except for Alba. For me, the definitive Sue Storm look is held by actresses like Christina Applegate or Kristen Bell.

I do think the Thing effects are far better in this new one though. He's supposed to look like a bunch of rocks just hurled together, but that speaks more to effects department over "director that has his favourites even if they dont work" casting choices.

 

[SketchTheArtist]

First thing I thought of:

 

[Volimar]

Ha I was just going to suggest someone shop this guy in there.

 

[Ganzlinger]

And I thought Mara would be the only good casting on this but now I don't know anymore. 2005 cast looks wonderful now.

 

[The One and Done™]

Doesn't get my rocks off or anything but I'll allow it.
