Yeah, but... To even have the title card so amateur? I dunno, I guess it's very possible.

Really though, between Michael B. Jordan, Toby Kebbell, and Miles Teller, the main cast of this movie is already better than the main cast of the first attempt. And that's not getting into whether you think Jamie Bell & Kate Mara are good actors. (I happen to think they're good enough)
At the least, there's nobody in this cast that's anywhere near as bad as Jessica Alba.

Have you seen Jupiter Ascending's title card? It looks like something off Geocities.
Good thing the naked silver man on the surfboard and the flying car that splits into several flying bumper cars retain the integrity of the film.
lol more effort than just adding a gradient to some comic sans

It's amazing how LONG it took producers to get over the fact they were actually adapting comic books, and to let that actually come out in their movies. It's always been one of the most frustrating aspects of superhero movies - they insist on making them live-action, and for decades, that meant cutting out anything that was fantastical past a certain point.
That still happens now, but to a much lesser extent, as everyone finally wrapped their head around the idea that audiences are buying tickets to watch superpeople do ridiculous fucking things and have fun doing it, and so they let ridiculous things happen.

Heh, pretty much. Also, I'm quite sure the title of the film is The Fantastic Four. Unless they just aren't showing the whole title in that image, I'm calling fake.
This?
I guess that Galactus was the boiling point where they had to back down.
But all good effort was surely put into more mishaps of jessica alba losing her clothes.

This is the one I remember. Looks like a card for a straight to DVD Farscape movie.
Edit: Here's a clearer image from the trailer. At 2:10.

How does this movie not even have a logo released? Is this the marketing strategy?

Same. I did not like that movie, at all.

How can anyone say this with a straight face? Do you even know what Galactus is supposed to be like? I've never heard of anyone who thought the cloud Galactus was a good idea, not one person real or on the internet...
Oh, and this new movie makes me want to cry. Out loud. I really hope that one day Marvel gets this back and shows us a proper Dr. Doom on the big screen.

If you're not familiar at all with FF, Galactus, Celestials, Eternity and all that jazz then I'm sure a world-devouring space cloud doesn't really seem that crazy or stupid. The main problem is that it basically turns an actual character into a special effect without any defining personality or characteristics.

well.......
10 years ago Fox didn't have a Marvel to show them audiences will not only accept the zaniness of comics, but crave it.
I was fascinated by this moment, was that meant to be a celestial being in the vain of Galactus ?
Galactus on screen...
They have a point that it's hard to take seriously, but the Fantastic Four should be goofy and ridiculous and borderline insane. Audiences bought fucking Staypuft in Ghostbusters, done right they'll be cool with a pimp looking motherfucker who didn't skip leg day.
That was Eson the Searcher and yeah he is one of the Celestials.

The Celestials came about after Galactus , created by kirby in his last or second to last stint at marvel comics. They are not like Galactus, he is literally the embodiment of consumption, he's more like Eternity, Infinity, Death, etc etc. The Celestials are an extremely old and powerful race of beings that go throughout the universe seeding life on planets and cultivating / judging their experiments much like gardeners. They are responsible for the eternals, deviants, kree, skrull, the mutants on earth, so on and so forth. The most powerful of them can exist on a multiverse level.

Yes. It was one of my favorite moments of GotG. I love when Marvel drops little tidbits showing a much more deep, rich universe than just Earth's perspective.
I wonder if in some future Avengers movie the villain could be one of these celestials dropping by Earth (since they can't straight up use Galactus)? That would be sweet.

There is no way fox believes this will be this good even if its n the xmen/deadpool universe

<raises hand> I think a nanobot galatus like Warren Ellis did in ultimate FF is a lot more logical than a giant purple dude who eats planets.
But it's also much more boring.

A talking raccoon is not logical either but hey
Yes.
That indeed was a Celestial.
I see, thanks, Looks like I have some reading to do
The gaint skull aka Knowhere they were in was a Celestial's head.

We have Hobo Doom. That should be enough to sate us.
Avengers 40 right?
It is so weird, no twitter, facebook or nothing.

To be fair - buzz doesn't take a hell of a lot of time to whip up. They're not breaking the bank on this thing, either. It's got a relatively low budget compared to other superhero films. It's possible they're waiting until 3-4 months before the movie opens to start targeting audiences with a marketing campaign.
It's not as if any movie really NEEDS a full year of marketing material to raise awareness.
