The 3 unqualified morons return to dissect this bad movie about 4 super powered individuals. Join us as we discuss 2015's Fan4stic! Staring Miles Teller, Kate Mara, Michael B Jordan, Jamie Bell, and Toby Kebbell. MERCH! See ya in 2 weeks for X-Men: Apocalypse.
This is our 3rd entry to our special series "Marvel's 20th Century Fox Era". In this episode, we discuss "Fantastic Four" (2005) and "Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer" (2007). (We're definitely not talking about "Fan4stic"). But before we get into it we also discuss some news about Marvel's return to Hall H at SDCC this year.
The FORTH AND FINAL EPISODE of our Fantastic Four miniseries!!! Marly and Austen are talking about the Fantastic Four (2015). Marly and Austen also discuss what they learned from watching all Four Fantastic Four movies. Will they have learned the secret to making the perfect Fantastic Four movie? Probably?!? Probably not?!?

KCCCC Season 004, Episode 1 Marvel made sure this movie never saw an actual release because they were afraid it would hurt the brand and yet Fan4stic was allowed to release, go figure.

After Mikkel forces Keith to relive the horrors of watching "Fan4stic" and "Cailou", the pair take a deep dive into tech. They discuss Zoom fatigue and the response to Twitch streamers taking a day off to demand more pushback against hate raids. Hear about that and more on This Week in Nerd News.

Last year on a different podcast Angela and myself watched Fantastic Four from 2005. Although we've since shifted gears to being indie comics focused we decided to do an episode on Fantastic Four: Rise Of The Silver Surfer earlier in the year, so now to finish up our Fantastic Four rewatch we're taking on 2015's Fantastic Four (or Fan4stic, whatever you'd prefer to call it).I won't give too much away, but at this point this is the longest podcast episode we've done. So, if you'd like to hear two people relive a film most people haven't even seen once, this is definitely for you. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
Often called the best Fantastic Four movie. Is that really saying much? Tom jumps into the Rise of the Silver Surfer. It's got a Galactus cloud, some more awkward Jessica Alba ogling and the besst Stan Lee cameo, maybe? We also go into Tim Story telling Jessica Alba to "cry pretty", the movie not knowing what to do with Doctor Doom and compare The Silver Surfer to Christian Bale's on-set meltdown. Next week we dive into the notorious Fan4stic (2015). Why not check it out and join the discussion? Have you seen Rise of the Silver Surfer? Let me know what you think in the comments below!

CAPONE MOVIE REVIEW Have you ever wondered what the last year of Al Capone’s was like? Apparently, Josh Trank did and, following the disaster that was Fan4stic, someone apparently decided to give him a second chance to tell his version of this story.

Sean answers your Marvel questions!0:23 Angel L AshbyHey Sean, so judging by the footage and Nat's hair, we can (probably) discern a bit of a time line. Blonde, right after Infinity War. Red and blonde tips probably about a year later based on hair growth. So some of what is left of our team ends up shooting off into space on the Benatar. One, do you think they are heading out to find Thanos, and do you think that's possibly an act one losing battle? And two, why would Tony and Nebula not be there, unless maybe it is doctored footage? Thanks!! Can't wait to listen!2:48 AlexDo you think Far From Home will be the first Spider-Man film to join the billion dollar club thanks in part to it being the first Post-Endgame MCU film? I think it's safe to assume that the events of Endgame will have some impact on Far From Home.4:13 Alex WardHi Sean! Hope you and the other Patrons secured your tickets smoothly! I just saw Jordan Peele's US, so I've got a couple questions: 1) Did you see Us yet? If so, what did you think? 2) Do you think Jordan Peele would ever consider joining the MCU as a director, or does he strike you more as the type to do his own thing? 3) If you could put Peele on an MCU property, what would it be? I think he'd be perfect for X-Men because of the ways he tackles heavy social issues in the guise of creative but well-crafted science fiction/fantasy without sacrificing the strength or importance of either aspect.9:22 AlexKnowing that you have a very low opinion on Fan4stic, would you ever have at least have the slightest curiosity to see Trank's original Fan4stic cut before Fox hijacked the film?9:34 AlexNew Mutants was featured on a Dolby Vision release slate. So does this mean its now a foregone conclusion that Josh Boone's New Mutants film, which as far as we know still hasn't even done any re-shoots as of yet, will be released in theaters?12:20 Robert KlauserWhat's up, everyone? Hope everyone that wanted them got tickets to opening night for Endgame. How many times are you gonna see the movie on opening weekend? Also are you getting the Road to Endgame artbook coming out the Tuesday before the movie or just waiting for the actual Endgame book?14:46 AlexIf New Mutants does indeed get a theatrical release can you see it being profitable or does the movie kind of spell complete bomb and would you rather Disney just dump it on a streaming service like Hulu instead of spending money on re-shoots and more marketing?16:51 Toni PelusoHello Sean, 2 questions. 1) With the presales tickets being crazy, do you think Avengers Endgame has a chance to break $300M opening weekend (domestic)? This is something that never has been done before. 2) I know it's really early, but do you think Marvel will have a big presence at SDCC? I know the edict is to try to withdraw from CC and have D23 take its place. But I was just wondering if, with the passing of Stan Lee, no real announcements regarding their upcoming slate and maybe as a thank you to whatever crazy numbers Endgame ends up doing, do you think they will go all in at SDCC? Or do you think they will hold off and make their big announcements at D23?20:13 AlexDo you think Marvel will put the X-Men and Fantastic Four in Avengers films and if they do should they include the teams in full or do you think there should be one individual member from each group should appear? 21:25 Derek BeebeHey Sean, if you could change one thing about some of the MCU movies, what would it be? I'm particularly interested in what you would change for Iron Man 2, Dark World, and Age of Ultron.25:38 Derek BeebeHave you heard any news about the return of Ghost, possibly in the Black Widow movie? I still love your idea of Nat mentoring Ghost in the present day.26:35 Derek BeebeWhat do you think the opening scene of Endgame will be? I'm guessing something quiet and somber, like the Statue of Liberty shot and a montage of devastation. What do you think the final image will be?29:18 Garrett AtwellIn your opinion, what hero(s) should die in endgame from a story perspective? I personally say cap and Bucky would be good or even cap ending up with Peggy via time travel some how or something. Thor dying would be super tragic since everyone else in his family have died as well.31:45 David RosenHey Sean and Friends, I hope everyone is having a great week so far and was able to get the tickets they wanted for End Game. I just want to say how great it was in the Discord this week hearing everyone's experiences getting tickets, so thanks everyone for sharing. I'm really looking forward to everyone sharing their experiences from seeing the actual movie. Sean, in thinking about Vision's equation in CA: Civil War, that the Avengers' very strength invites challenge, do you think that by the time End Game is over, it will address the fact that The Avengers victory over Thanos will likely make their name known throughout the galaxy? Do you see it as a good thing to be known throughout the galaxy or does this put the earth at risk of inviting bigger, badder threats? How long do you think it will be before we see the next big cosmic threat?35:12 Paul ShearmanHey Sean and patrons, hope everyone's blood pressure has returned to normal after the Great Ticket Scramble of 2019!! Sean, I had fun listening to your quest to get tickets on the Daily Bugle, I knew you got them in the end but it was tense listening! I was in a team meeting when I got my first notification for tickets being on UK release, but I was in a poor 4G location, so my adrenaline kicked in immediately! Fortunately, I was leading the meeting, and as it was with my own team members, I was able to pull rank and turned it into a team building session of them watching me jump online (up on the big screen we were using!) to secure my tickets! We didn't have the crashes on ticket sites here in the UK that it sounds like you had in the US, but there were slow moments that got me worried! So my question relates to your quest! Did you have that moment any time when you thought ‘wow, I actually may not get ANY tickets for opening night!'Hope all the patrons were able to get tickets for all the showings they wanted, and I'm now muting Endgame from my twitter feed, as I've seen enough footage now and I don't want anything else spoiled!39:07 Michael WeaselboyHey Sean how is your week going?? I got my tickets for Endgame already, I cant wait to sit in that theater on Thursday night. Anyways my question is, do you think the Marvel movies will have some kind of Stan lee picture in the background from now on?? To replace the Stan cameos. I think its what they did in the Netflix shows and Deadpool. Thoughts??40:02 Mark BrianHello, Sean...thank you for your continuing efforts. The amount of content is amazing! I was wondering if you think we'll ever see the Squadron Supreme (or Squadron Sinister) in the MCU. I've always enjoyed them, but I think that since the characters were so clearly based on the Justice League, perhaps they may be a little too on the nose to bring to live action.41:39 Rodrigo Valverde IIIHey there, Sean. I'm not normally a Hot Toys buyer because of how expensive they are, but I finally gave in and bought my first one which was the Infinity War Captain America (my favorite MCU character), and no lie, I'm probably going to have to buy the Endgame Captain America as well. Hot Toys also released promo images of their Endgame Thanos figure with a fully unscathed infinity gauntlet. So my questions are: Are you a Hot Toys collector? And do you think Thanos will have a fully powered infinity gauntlet in Endgame, or do you think it was just included for the figure? Thanks for all the great content!AlexWould you want the prior Deadpool films to be made retroactively canon in the MCU? For me personally I think it wouldn't make any sense since Mutants are already a thing known by the public but in the first Deadpool there was a Shield and there was a reference to Black Widow and Hawkeye in Deadpool 2. So in theory those films could be made to be MCU canon.49:27 Robert SantiagoIn the new special look trailer, Tony shakes caps hand(so it looks) but looking closer at the costume, it doesn't look like caps outfit. Who do you think that could be and also, doesn't it look like when thanos appears, he's coming thru the bifrost?! What do you think? New trailer is amazing and I can't wait for April 25th!51:08 Seth GoslinThese films are wonderful and making good films is hard, so highest respect to the filmmakers...That said, there are occasionally some lovable warts in the films for me. In the Civil War airport fight, there's a super awkward cut to Natasha as Scott and Steve are throwing the "Water Truck" at Rhodey. Ant-man has delightful cut when Darren Cross is introducing "this company's founder and my mentor...Hank Pym". Most of the the scene is shot with the camera slightly below Cross but for a second the camera angle is from above him. This results in him looking tiny for a moment, like a forced-perspective kind of thing. This always makes my family laugh based on the movie being about shrinking things. Any lovable warts that stick out to you?54:07 Jeremy WatsonHey Sean and fellow patrons! In preparation for AE I am re-watching as many MCU movies as I can, starting with Phase 1. After watching The Incredible Hulk, why do you think Marvel did away with Banner monitoring his heart rate? Also, do you think we will ever see Abomination again. I can't believe we are almost 20 days away! Thanks and have a great week!57:33 Toni PelusoHi Sean, one more question. Since the Russo's have said there is misleading footage in the trailers/tv spots/special look, any thoughts or hopes and to what might be a complete fake-out?59:14 David RosenIn the most recent episode of the Marvel Unlimited book club, you mentioned that while you understood the reasons for it, you thought it was unfortunate that we probably wouldn't get a chance to see some of the abuse that Bruce Banner experienced as a kid at the hands of his father. But it made me think, we've speculated here, and I think the Russo's have also mentioned, that Tony's BARF machine would/could come into play at some point in End Game, and I believe one of the places you've speculated that it could be used would be to help merge Bruce's personality with the Hulk. When BARF was initially introduced in Civil War, we saw it being used to replay some of Tony's past memories, so if it is used on Bruce, do you think we could actually see it used to access and show some of Bruce's past memories that we haven't seen with this incarnation of the Hulk?1:01:47 Chris CascioHowdy everyone glad to be back. So after all the Black Widow news that came out today do you have any reading recommendations for people who haven't read any black widow comics?1:02:56 Mookie JohnsonAfter watching an MCU movie, have you ever gone back and looked at spoiler reports and fan theories just to see how accurate any of them might have been?1:04:08 Mookie JohnsonWhat is your head Canon answer as to where the Abomination and the leader have been since Incredible Hulk?1:05:42 CaroleI was just watching Infinity War...again! How do the Avengers communicate so easily with each other? IronMan with SpiderMan, even after SM removes his mask? Thor with Rocket and Eitri from outside the mine and the spacecraft? It made me chuckle to see the flawless, seamless communication they have! See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
Sean answers your Marvel questions!0:34 Alex WardHey Sean! Happy Fox acquisition day! I may be remembering wrong, but did Disney immediately announce more films when they purchased Lucasfilm? If so, do you think that may be why so many fans are expecting an announcement from Marvel about an X-Men or FF movie's sooner than it'll actually happen? Also, if they did immediately announce new Star Wars films, how was that situation different from this one? Just that Star Wars films were a given? Thanks Sean!7:25 Robert KlauserMaybe the Gunn “leave of absence” could be a silver lining considering James Gunn had interest in characters previously owned by Fox in the past. What are your thoughts that there could be some rewrites for the GotG Vol 3 script to include said characters?10:03 Tom DeMicheleHey Sean and Patrons! I've been re-listening to all the Empire Spoiler Podcasts with MCU directors and creators. In the Civil War episode, the Russo's said they explored many options for the turning point of the airport fight before deciding on Giant-Man. What do you think were their previous options for swinging the fight in Team Cap's favor?12:12 Nick DiTotaHey Sean, I've been a part of the Patreon for about 3 months now and I just want to say that I think it's awesome! I love being able to listen every day while I'm at work. Over the past couple years I've gotten big into reading comics. I've never read any comics about the Eternals and with Marvel making an Eternals movie I'd like to read some to get to know the characters a little more. Do you have any recommendations as to a particular series to read? I figured to get to know them best go right to the source with Kirby's original series but I wanted your opinion. Keep up the awesome work and thanks for everything you do!14:00 Jeremy WatsonAt the end of Iron Man, when Fury is telling Stark that he's become part of a bigger world, we now know that he was referring to Captain Marvel. At that time (2008), do you think that Kevin Feige was referring to her or just the Marvel Universe in general? Thanks15:41 Derek BeebeHey Sean, I know you've talked about them doing Hickman's Secret War as an Avengers movie, but what I really want to see is what leads up to that story, Time Runs Out. Our heroes struggling in vain against an impossible, universe ending threat, driven to increasingly immoral desperation. I think this would make a great trilogy of Avengers movies, but how dark do you think our heroes could get in a major blockbuster? And if they did Secret War, how much time do you think they'll spend with Battleworld? Personally I thought that was the least interesting aspect of the series by far. And of course, this entire story requires Doom to be in the MCU.19:37 Derek BeebeDo you regret we didn't get a "Secret Avengers" movie between Civil War and Infinity War, showing what life was like for Cap's team living in exile in Wakanda? I think that would have been a great story. And if we did have that movie, do you think they should have avoided putting Tony and Steve together?22:10 Derek BeebeDo you think we need a Captain Marvel 2 taking place before Miss Marvel in order to properly establish Carol as a modern day hero for Kamala Kahn to look up to?23:50 Derek BeebeWhat do you think the line up for Avengers 5 will be? I'm assuming that none of the original team will be around, though I hope that's not true. Captain Marvel will be team leader of course. I'm thinking Black Panther, Ant-Man, Wasp, Doctor Strange... maybe Shang Chi and Sersi? And do you think a line up like that would be as popular as the original?29:00 Chris FHey Sean! Happy merger day! Was really great to break the news on the discord about the trailer release. I actually had a moment where I was like I wonder if this is what Sean feels like when he's breaking marvel news for us!Also thanks for sharing your idea of a “meditation period” before marvel films. I finally had a chance to try it with captain marvel and it worked great. So my question for the week is since time travel seems to be a factor in endgame is their any particular scene from any past films you would like to see them go back to and change a bit?I for one would love to see the scene of Thor and Loki on the rocks in Germany where Thor knows Loki is dead in the future and it's a bit more emotional. Thanks again for creating this great community!30:50 AlexHappy Closing day Sean! May I ask do you forsee the MCU X-Men and Fantastic Four films having the 20th Centuary Fox logo are does that become null and void once Marvel is making the movies and not Fox?32:10 AlexDo you think anything will in the world of Marvel superheroes world will be as historic as the X-Men and Fantastic Four coming back home back to Marvel Studios or is it as good as it gets? I have a hard time imagining even Marvel eventually gaining the full rights to Spider-Man will be as huge as this considering Marvel already has used Spidey in the MCU before now.33:54 AlexYou've lamented before on the quality of Entertainment journalism in regards to reporting things that are Marvel related but do you worry it can be greatly exacerbated after the deal closes? I see a future of a lot of unsubstantiated rumors about Mutants and Fantastic Four emerging more than ever before.35:03 Michael WeaselboyHey Sean its amazing to realize that now the MCU can be fully complete. I was wondering do you think we will have Masters of Evil sometime in the MCU as the next Avengers villains?? Do you think Doctor Doom could be the leader?? What other members would you add??37:18 AlexDo you think Marvel gets the rights to Fantastic Four might soften your stance on Fan4stic once you re-watch the movie again at some point(assuming you ever do?)39:14 AlexSean, have you seen Bumblebee yet? What do you think about it? And if you have seen it and liked it then do you now agree that Travis Knight would be a suitable choice to helm FF? I know you have Dee Rees as your top choice to direct Fantastic Four but I think Knight would a fantastic job( dumb pun intended) with the First Family. 39:54 Brett HeierHey Sean, did you like the all female ghostbusters movie? I loved it and I am very sad there won't be a sequel. Also, did you like Captain Phasma as a character? Do you think we will see her again in the Star Wars Universe? Sorry these questions weren't very centered around the MCU.41:13 Brett HeierHow many more years do you think Scarlet Witch will be in the MCU?41:58 AlexSean, do you think the Deadpool moves become retroactively canon in the MCU when Wade Wilson enters the MCU or do you think its unlikely? Would you rather keep Deadpool in his own universe separate form the MCU or are you of the mindset that he can be integrated into the MCU with little problems.44:54 AlexDo you have any strong picks for Doctor Doom?45:37 Jeremy WatsonSean, in the spirit of March Madness, who would your top 4 seeds be out of the major MCU players? Thanks!47:59 Jessica LoutfiHey Sean. Given that the Russo brothers are famous for adding things into their trailers that aren't in the movies...what do you think they added to the new trailer that may not be in Avengers Endgame? Thanks!49:30 Woo S! KimI happen to think Inhumans and Daredevil are the most underrated creations of Stan Lee's iconic career, do you concur, if you don't what do you think is his most underrated creation or creations, Sean?51:14 Woo S! KimIronically enough Sean, there is going to be a lot of What If Questions involving the “What If” Disney Plus animated series so please forgive the puns. Now let's say for argument sake Disney wanted to do a “What If” episode or episodes that involve Tom Holland's Spider-Man can Marvel Studios/Disney do this or is Tom Holland's Spider-Man technically with Sony Pictures? Related to Spider-Man do you feel that this “What If” Animated Series is Marvel Studios way of metaphorically dipping their toe into the pool of animation if they get the rights back to Spider-Man in the next two years or perhaps Marvel Studios wanting to release other Marvel characters in animated films released in cinemas that have nothing to so with Spider-Man, could this be the case why or why not?54:29 Woo S! KimIf you ever had the chance to interview Stan Lee did you have any questions you always wanted to ask him, me personally I would just spent the time thanking him for creating Daredevil.55:36 Matt MillerDo you think with the merger closing today thay Marvel studios will rearrange some of their plans and get the FF and X-men movies out before ones currently being planned/ones that are rumored?59:26 David RosenWith all the new properties coming over, and all the likely reboots that are going to happen, how do you foresee Marvel Studios adhering to their “no more origin stories” rule? While we will need some explanation, what do you think the amount of origin we'll get for the characters coming over from Fox? With the Fantastic Four and their fairly well-known origin specifically in mind, do you think it's possible to do something similar like they did with Spiderman, or will they need the classic origin story treatment to get them started? As the MCU continues to grow beyond End Game, and with all the new characters that will be introduced, what is the correct balance the MCU needs to strike in telling new characters' origins so that audiences don't start to get bored and look past the first films for all the upcoming characters?1:01:54 David RosenI know I thought this after the End Game super bowl spot, and I honestly cant remember if I, or some else asking about it then, but considering that the most recent trailer included flashbacks in black and white with the red highlights again, do you think there is more going on here than it just being a stylistic choice?1:03:27 David RosenOne of the reasons that I felt Captain Marvel was so different and refreshing from the rest of the MCU was the lack of an obvious love interest. Why is it that having a love interest has become such a staple of storytelling in the superhero genre? Was it a product of the times that these stories were being written in that the male hero had to have a woman to save and/or fall in love with? Do you think moving forward, Marvel should leave the obligatory, one-off love story behind in favor of other ways of developing characters or will it always be one of those story aspects that we'll just need to deal with sometimes because love is just a part of life?1:08:27 David RosenIn the discussion about whether Captain Marvel is too powerful in the MCU, regardless of whether or not we actually get to see this tested in a movie, if you consider that Wanda is able to use her energy to destroy the Mind Stone, do you think Captain Marvel could be defeated by a Hydra weapon, as they both draw their power from the Tesseract?1:10:38 Paul ShearmanHey Sean and everyone, hope you're all having a good week so far. Sean, pop quiz time! A quick question following your Captain Marvel conversations about the use of Nirvana when Carol went up against the Supreme intelligence (although I agree totally with you that it gets a pass because it's a terrific song!). Because I'm a weird completist about these things (!) I'm interested to know what alternative song you'd use, that fits with the ‘pre-1989 Carol leaving Earth' chronology and therefore not necessarily being aware of that song!In the grand scheme of things, this of course didn't ruin my enjoyment of the movie in any way, but I love to dot the i's and cross the t's..!Thanks as always, and enjoy the rest of your week.1:13:47 Jeremy WatsonSean, with the Fox/Disney acquisition complete, do you foresee any changes to some of Fox's tv content, such as The Simpsons, Family Guy, etc?1:17:11 Robert ReinekeHi Sean. There's some speculation that the latest Endgame trailer includes fake scenes and images that were deliberately altered from what will appear in the actual movie, ala Hulk in Wakanda. Now, I realize that no trailer is the actual movie, with trailers often featuring temp music, scenes and line readings that may end up on the editing floor, incomplete special effects, etc. Not to mention the fact that editing a 2 to 3 hour movie into a 2 minute spot is a deliberate act of distortion, all sizzle, all the time, albeit usually not on the level of trying to make The Shining look like a feel good family film or Christopher Robin look like a horror film. But, I feel that most trailers aren't trying to deliberately lie to me. Is a line being crossed here? I know Jean Luc Godard said that "Cinema is truth at 24 frames per second." and Brian DePalma retorted "Cinema is lies at 24 frames per second." and I'm much more in the DePalma camp, but I feel that I never like to be deliberately lied to. Yeah, I expect it won't ruin my enjoyment of the film any, but we have to hold the creators we like to the same standards we hold those we don't like. Did showing the Hulk in Wakanda ad one cent to the box office? I don't think so. Plus, I also feel that it's unnecessary in a film where you have 3 hours of footage and over 20 films to draw footage from, and a few seconds can't be that important. And I feel that this is a trend that ought to be nipped in the bud before it gets out of control, like digitally inserting Avengers into trailers for Eternals. Do you devalue the trailer by making them wholly unreliable?What do you think of the ethics of lying in trailers beyond "caveat emptor"?1:23:49 Angel L AshbyHey there Sean! Do you think that Disney/MCU set the timeline for the Disney/Fox deal so that it would be finalized before Endgame came out and do you believe that there will be a teaser for FF or Xmen in Endgame? Or do you think that Endgame will.. end.. in such a way that it sets up for X-men to be a new introduction in to the universe? (I hope that made sense.)

Sean answers your Marvel questions!4:37 Alex WardHey Sean! I have a couple Fox X-Men questions before that iteration of the franchise is gone forever. 1) Is there any part of you that's excited to see Dark Phoenix just knowing it's the last time we'll see this version of the characters? While the marketing has been lackluster, they truly have the freedom to do anything with these characters, knowing this is the last time they'll be working with these characters. Does the "nothing left to lose" idea excite you about this movie at all? Also, do you think there will be anything in this film that will sort of indirectly nod toward a "goodbye" message or something, sort of how TLJ had a lot of meta-messages to the audiences? I.e. "Let the past die; kill it if you have to."9:40 Alex WardDid you see the interview with Sophie Turner where she (bravely) admits that she won a recent role over a better actress simply due to the fact that she had more followers on social media? Do you think this was Dark Phoenix? What do you think about this concept of casting, and do you think star power is something studios like Fox, as opposed to Disney, are overly concerned with, and maybe that contributes to their wavering success?13:43 Woo S! KimI have been doing some research Sean on some of the more cosmic beings in Marvel Comics do you think in “The Eternals,” “Fantastic Four,” “Guardians of The Galaxy,” or if Mr. McKay does get to his Silver Surfer film will there ever be references and will we ever see The Fulcrum or The One Above All in the MCU? My biggest issue with either of these is people that aren't hardcore geeks will obviously think and or say “Where were these two when Thanos turned half the universe to ash?”15:24 Woo S! KimThinking back to 2012-2013 what did you think was more likely to happen as a result of the success of Marvel Studios, Spider-Man coming home first like most people did and in a way that's how that went down or X-Men and Fantastic Four? Did you ever think back in the day what is happening now, was going to happen potentially this quickly?17:40 Woo S! KimWhat I have seen from people on the internet and this is not a spoiler that Phil Coulson's appearance in “Captain Marvel” was well received, how likely of a possibility do you believe that Coulson will be brought back into the MCU films and if he does, the character may not even hint at Agents of SHIELD, my feeling is Kevin Feige really likes the character of Phil Coulson and the performer Clark Gregg because there is no real story reason to bring Coulson into “Captain Marvel,” what are your thoughts?21:13 AlexSean, what do you make of Kinberg's lastest comments about the Disney-Fox deal and its possible implications on the future of the franchise? Kinberg pointed out he's pals with Feige so I wonder if Feige would bring him on board the MCU X-Men as a producer or do you think there's no chance in hell Mr. Kinberg is touching the property in anyway again after Dark Phoenix? 23:38 AlexKevin Feige has said that Captain Marvel is the strongest person in the MCU. But do you ever see that changing thanks to the Fox-deal and the numerous other powerful characters that Marvel will be getting back after it closes like Silver Surfer & Galactus?25:10 AlexWhat aspect of the Fantastic Four and X-Men comics that you never loved and hope the MCU either avoids or improves on?26:39 AlexSean, would you say the marketing for Dark Phoenix has been the strangest and worst you've seen in superhero movies(or does that honor still go to Fan4stic) and do you think the Disney-Fox deal has played a factor in how Fox has chosen to market the film? It really feels to me that this movie is never going to come out. I mean can you think from the top of your head an example of a director confirming a death that people already suspected immediately after the trailer comes out. It's really quite baffling.30:59 David RosenHi Sean, I've been thinking about the Oscars and Black Panther's no win for Best Picture. As you talked about in the lead up to the Oscars, the fact that BP won a number of other awards which were voted on by people who also happened to be voting members of the Academy, like the SAG award for Best Ensemble for example, led you to believe that BP had a very good chance of winning Best Picture. Do you think it's possible that either 1) those voters voted for BP for those awards because maybe they had a feeling that as good as it was, in other Academy voters' minds, it's still a comic book movie and therefore didn't really stand a good chance to win, and so they wanted to make sure that it got recognized somehow and/or 2) in terms of awards, The Oscars are still considered a step above all other awards in prestige, so even though it may have been “acceptable” for a comic book movie to win other awards, the mere fact that it's a comic book movie made it undeserving of Hollywood's biggest honor? Just to be clear, I don't subscribe to any of these ideas myself. A great movie should be recognized as such, regardless of its genre. I'm just trying to get inside some of these people's heads.39:23 BenHey Sean! It seems like Marvel is truly embracing diversity for the new era. It's extremely exciting to me how fast they may go from being a really straight white male centric franchise, to possibly the most diverse franchise in Hollywood. I do think that Marvel is going to pay a price for this though. I think many of people will drop off, either because they are racist/sexist/homophobic, or they are only interested in the traditional old school characters. But I also think that a new, more diverse, fanbase will rise to replace them. What are your thoughts on the coming changes at Marvel, and the possible changes in the Marvel fanbase?43:53 BenDo you think the gay character in Eternals could be Hercules? He was known to have male lovers in Greek mythology.45:00 AdineOn the Midweek Q&A, someone asked about the possibility of a Collector/GrandMaster limited series. I just wanted to share that there is an Infinity War tie-in novel that features the two with the sort of brotherly rivalry type story you were describing. The series is called AIW: Cosmic Quest. I'm about half way through the audio book, and the reader does a great job of imitating the characters' on screen performances. I know this isn't nearly as great as a limited series would be, but it might still scratch that itch for someone who just wants to spend more time with these two45:46 AlexSean, what do you think is the secret to the Marvel's success? Why are they more consistent than other studios like Warners, Sony, and Fox who also make superhero films?And do you think Warner Bros and Sony will be able to achieve Marvel's good quality streak going forward?50:22 AlexDo you think Marvel could pull off either an X-Men and Fantastic Four trilogy without use of the archemeies of their respective franchises like Magneto and Doctor Doom. Would you personally be disappointed if Marvel refrains from using them in the trilogies. Opting instead to introduce those character in other movies outside FF and X-Men films.53:07 Alex WardSo I finally got my girlfriend to agree to see Captain Marvel and Endgame with me. We obviously can't get through all the MCU before then, and I know Captain Marvel will at least be pretty standalone, but what movies do you think are the most important to watch before each?

Sean answers your Marvel questions!0:52 Jim ScroggsSince Peter has officially met Nick Fury in the FFH trailer, do you think that at some point we'll see Peters Parents as SHIELD agents in a flashback or to make it even more comic book-y, they were never dead to begin with3:19 Jessica LoutfiHi Sean. Hope all is well with yourself and the patrons. It has been fun to be a part of the discord community. I am wondering if you had ever given any thought to the origins of the Marvel comics in regards to their mythological equals. For example, Thor and the Norse Myths. I wonder if you have a take on the Greek mythological figure Thanatos, whom has many similarities to Thanos and how myths play into the stories we enjoy. Thanks for everything you do!6:28 Brian WhiteHi Sean. I'm about a week behind on podcasts so this might have been answered by the time I catch up but I'm curious and confused about all the fan theories assuming Secret Invasion is an obvious next step. As you've commented, that kind of story requires years of setup. It was much more intuitive to me to assume that the next Avengers movie or Captain Marvel 2 would be Kree/Skrull War. Surely, Carol is not going to wrap that whole thing up in the first Captain Marvel movie. She's going to need her new Avengers team mates to help her no matter how powerful she is. This event could accomplish again what Infinity War did, bringing the Avengers, the Guardians of the Galaxy and Captain America together in the backdrop of a space adventure. What do you think? Thanks!10:45 Woo S! KimIf I am just a casual cinema goer and I just heard from friends the storylines of the comics: “House of M” “Avengers v. X-Men” and “X-Men: Dark Phoenix” don't all those storylines sound about the same, myself being a geek, I know they are different. Do you think it would be the correct move since cinema goers and hardcore geeks have seen one live action version of The Dark Phoenix that did not go over so well and one that hasn't even debuted in cinemas that is all ready getting artistic mud thrown at it, wouldn't it make sense when Feige has creative control over the X-Men to do a “House of M” film first since a lot of people have gotten to know Scarlet Witch and perhaps will have more emotional investment because of her Disney Plus series storyline and then in let's say for argument sake five years just lump “The Dark Phoenix” and “Avengers v. X-Men” storylines together adapt both stories into an “Avengers v. X-Men” film, what say you, Sean? 15:23 Woo S! KimYou Sean are one of the few people I have heard give Nicole Pearlman credit for what she contributed to the first “Guardians of The Galaxy” film now this could be a non-issue especially if Marvel Studios and or whomever directs the third Guardians of The Galaxy film decides to use James Gunn script and makes miniscule changes to it. For argument sake, let's say Marvel Studios doesn't like James Gunn's script for whatever reason, would Nicole Pearlman in your point of view be a good person to bring into write a new draft of “Guardians of The Galaxy Volume 3” because of her work on the first film or would it be too much of a challenge because her initial interpretation of the Guardians is perhaps too far and away from what James Gunn has established?17:35 Woo S! KimThis is just speculation on my part, but I have seen on a lot of Marvel Comics social media, a lot of advertising with the Fantastic Four. My question is with the Disney/FOX deal potentially closing very soon, is this just Marvel Comics slowly reintroducing Marvel's first family and X-Men characters into the comics because they just want to be in the words of Lion King's Scar to be prepared when Fantastic Four and X-Men come back into the fold or could there be something more there we fans aren't seeing, to be fair and no pun intended with the not seeing when Daredevil's rights came back to Marvel in 2012, Marvel slowly starting reintroducing him to the comics proper, same with Ghost Rider, what are your thoughts, Sean?19:40 brentacPrimeDo you think any characters that were snapped will come back only to die again in Endgame? If so, any guesses?22:07 Tom DeMicheleDo you think the next person to play Matt Murdock should be a blind actor? I think casting actors with disabilities is the next step in representation, and discussion on this topic is ongoing. Actors like Bryan Cranston and Tessa Thompson have been met with criticism for portraying characters with disabilities. Perhaps for logistical and safety reasons, a non-blind stunt person can do the more complicated action scenes, with a blind actor portraying Matt for everything else. Your thoughts, Sean?24:17 Hector Giovanni NavarreteHey Sean! Hope everyone is having a good weekend!Have you seen every MCU film's special features? And if so (or from the ones you have seen) which film's special features are your personal favorite(s) and why?27:01 AlexSean with “Glass” already have come out I thought I should ask you a question regarding the director dubbed the King of The Twist(for better or worse) and was once dubbed(prematurely) as “the next Spielberg” himself M. Night Shyamalan(forgive me if I misspelled his name) M. Night Shyamalan is one of the most polarizing directors working today but I still like most of Shymalan's films(yes even The Village) and Unbreakable I think is masterpiece and kind of shows he has in him for a superhero flick. So first of all, what do you think of him as a filmmaker and what Marvel property do you think he'd be the best fit for?28:39 AlexIf ‘Into The Spiderverse' was a live-action film do you think Tobey McGuire would be able to pull off an older, jaded, scluby Peter mentoring Miles Morales or do you think they'd be better off going with someone else or just casting Jake Johnson(the voice actor who played Peter in the movie)? Personally I'd be curious to see Tobey McGuire play a Peter Parker who's at a different stage of his life than the one he played Peter in the Riami trilogy. It'd almost be like asking Micheal Keaton(Keaton's is a much better actor than McGuire IMO) to come back to play the older version of Bruce Wayne mentoring Terry McGinnis.29:57 AlexI recently happened upon an interview with Dan Slott with SY FY Wire in which he blatantly confirms what we all suspected - The Disney/Fox deal is the primary reason Marvel revived the FF comics. Granted we all knew months before the Disney/Fox deal that FF was cancelled because of the film rights situation because Jonathan Hickman basically confirmed that the comics were canceled over the film rights still being at Fox(they canceled the comic the same year Fan4stic was released), and not because of the Marvel PR story about the comic having “low sales” but it just irks me that Marvel can be so petty but how do you feel about it? Do you think Marvel was in the right to cancel the comic because they don't own the film rights and they don't want to support a potentially bad movie like Fan4stic(which actually did turn out bad by the way) by not giving it any promotion whatsoever? Why didn't they cancel the X-Men comic over the same thing since back then those rights were also at Fox?36:37 Paul ShearmanHey Sean and patrons, hope everyone has had a great week so far. Having now seen the international trailer for Spider-Man Far From Home, we know that Peter has his original Homecoming costume with him when he's is Europe. And we have also now seen the red and black costume being worn in Europe- which from the early set photos last year made it look like he was just wearing it in New York (to me at least).So I'm curious who he gets this suit from, as I expect Nick Fury will provide the stealth suit he gets - but the red and black costume looks absolutely like a Tony Stark design. We know Happy Hogan is in the movie and we also see Happy talking to Peter in what looks - possibly- like the cabin of a private jet (when he says to Peter ‘you're alone').So, could Happy provide Peter with the red and black costume, and would that therefore indicate Tony created it, and was still alive after Endgame (although I guess he could just as easily have made it prior to any possible death in Endgame).As always, would welcome your thoughts on this Sean, and hope you and all the patrons enjoy the rest of your weekend.39:39 Hector Giovanni NavarreteOk, so the topic and question I'm about to bring up is in no way meant to be insensitive or to cause any sort of controversy, at all. It's more to just get a different perspective on the matter as well as to share a little bit of my own opinion.What is your opinion of the recent Hollywood trend to link directors to movies with the same race/sex as the leads in those films? Mostly it's become/becoming a trend in the superhero genre. Examples: Black Panther, Wonder Woman, and others that haven't been released or announced yet like Black Widow and Shang Chi.Now, I am not saying it's a bad trend, in fact I have enjoyed immensely the diversity in front of and behind the cameras for these films recently.I guess I also feel, though, that just like for years movies in general, as well as superhero ones, have been helmed by Caucasian males; is it not seen as “right” in today's society for films with a Caucasian lead to be directed by a director of different race/sex? For example can't there be like a Captain America or Iron Man movie directed by say a Ryan Coogler? And just like for many years women led films have also been helmed by male directors. How about a woman directing a male led film? I loved the idea that was thrown around a while ago for Patty Jenkins to direct a Superman movie.Those are just some superficial examples. I hope I made sense and didn't cause a stir. I honestly would just like to talk about this topic in a respectful and sensitive way. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
Sean answers your Marvel questions! 0:43 Kerry VanderbergHi Sean, I hope you are doing well. What are some of your “must-haves” in the new era of X-Men films which you want to see once they are introduced into the MCU? A few for me are: a more drawn out fight between Wolverine and Sabretooth where they actually get to slash each other up (which they had the perfect opportunity to do in LOGAN, but missed out by not bringing back Leiv Schreiber); Rogue somehow getting her flight and super-strength powers; and for them to plant the seeds of the larger mythology with Cyclops and Jean, where their offspring (Cable) would become the one who can truly defeat Apocalypse in the future. This involves a lot of players including Mr. Sinister, Stryfe, Apocalypse, and should be a long-game plan. Personally, I would hope to see them build up to an adaptation of the X-Cutioner's Song Saga, and play up the mystery that Stryfe is a clone of Cable. Although most important I supposed would to see the X-Men working together as a TEAM. What are your thoughts?8:58 Kerry VanderbergWhat do you think are the missed opportunities for Spider-man from the Amazing Spider-Man films? Personally I didn't like either film, and the only thing that I was excited for before ASM 2 came out was Shailene Woodley's casting as Mary Jane. Personally I thought she was pitch-perfect casting, as I would see her in interviews (particularly one with Conan O'Brien), and I thought her natural personality in that interview matched MJ perfectly. So I was bummed when she was cut out, but I doubt her appearance would have made much of a difference for that film anyways. In any case, that is one where if there was a way to de-age Shailene Woodley to match Tom Holland's age, I would prefer to see her cast as Mary Jane in current era of Spider-man, but I doubt that will happen either. What did you think about Shailene Woodley's casting at the time, and what do you think were the missed opportunities with that version of Spider-man (other than ASM 2 simply not being a good movie)?15:19 Kerry VanderbergWhat types of movies do you go to when you have finished an MCU/superhero movie marathon or re-watch? Do you have a “palette cleanser” of sorts? Some of my favorite non-superhero genres are crime dramas, spy thrillers, and sci-fi films. While obviously the MCU has done a great job in intermixing multiple genres in their films, sometimes it's great to go to a stand-alone film like LA Confidential or Interstellar for a change of pace. Any recent ones you've discovered or revisited?18:20 Mookie JohnsonGiven your report on the Daily Bugle yesterday, I kept waiting for you to say that "the Oscars want the Avengers to come save the day" or something like that... maybe i'm the only one who hears these bad jokes in my head.Anywho, Do you think there's any chance that comes with any promotional reveals like a costume, trailer, behind-the-scenes, etc.?Also do you think the actors would be themselves for the segments or would they be in character? For example, would the title card say Robert Downey jr. And he is being himself, or might he come out in an Iron Man suit and be acting as Tony Stark/Iron Man?If it is the latter, would they not have dusted characters present?21:33 Woo S! KimNow that we are closer to the launch of Disney Plus and the FOX/Disney merger coming to a close, where do you think the place of Marvel TV within Disney will be especially since sites like The Wrap and The Hollywood Reporter which I know can be cold and hot on these stories sometimes especially when there is not a lot of information, but they have reported over the last month or so that Marvel Studios is going to do quite a bit of live action content on Disney Plus, do you think that Marvel Animation that is under the Marvel TV umbrella will do a lot more exclusive animated films, for Disney Plus? Also, I have been thinking this for a couple of days now, and you have touched on this in the past, has your mode of thinking altered in that Marvel Studios series will stay primarily on Disney Plus which will be a big selling point to the casual non geek audiences to get Disney Plus subscriptions and Marvel TV will primarily produce shows for Freeform and FXX as well as “Agents of Shield” on ABC?29:94 AlexHey Sean can I ask how you'd prefer MCU Sue Storm be portrayed in comparison to the Fox-versions played previously by Kate Mara and Jessica Alba respectively? In my mind, Sue should be confident and assertive, while also being a complete badass. And also I would like for the MCU to have Sue Storm be among the strongest and most dangerous characters in the universe. Sue is already the most powerful member of the FF30:05 AlexForgive me if you've been asked this question before but for the MCU do you think the best approach for realizing the Thing in live-action is putting the actor in a Mo-Cap suit like we've seen done for Hulk and Fan4stic or would would you prefer old-school practical thing like makeup/prosthetics like we've seen done before with the Tim Story movies and most recently with the Skrulls?31:56 David RosenHey Sean, I've been holding onto this question for a while now, mainly because it has more to do with Disney-Fox than the MCU, but with the launch of your new Star Wars podcast, I figured this is the right time to ask. Once the deal goes through, can you see, and/or would you prefer, Disney putting the Fox fanfare back in front of Star Wars movies and/or new tv shows? That fanfare is so iconic, that whenever I hear it, my mind automatically jumps to the opening Star Wars theme right after hearing it. Plus, like the MCU fanfare, I've become conditioned to get excited for whatever is about to come after it. When I saw Force Awakens and Last Jedi, I couldn't help but feel like something was missing at the beginning of those movies and it just didn't feel right hearing the opening Star Wars theme without the Fox fanfare in front of it.34:34 David RosenOn a separate note, between all you do for this podcast, writing for the MSN website, the new Fandalorians podcast, your twitter activity, reading for the Marvel unlimited bookclub, and keeping up with everyone on the Discord, I seriously have no idea how you have the time to do all of it. You're not secretly in possession of a time stone that gives you more hours in a day, are you? If so, quit holding out on the rest of us. Not cool. Seriously though, I'm super impressed with and thankful for all you do for your fans and creating this little community of ours that we have going. I'm also really looking forward to the podcast's leadup to Avengers End Game, so thanks as always and keep it up!39:30 David RosenAnother Marvel/Star Wars question: As they are both coming our this year, and will both be serving as conclusions of sorts to their respective franchises, which movie do you think has more riding on it, Avengers Endgame or Star Wars Ep. 9? Also, which movie do you think has more pressure to succeed?46:20 Hector Giovanni NavarreteHey Sean hope you and all my fellow Patrons have a great weekend!So I have heard great things of Jonathan Hickman's FF comic series! What is your take on it? Why would you recommend this series for someone to read?48:06 Hector Giovanni NavarreteFavorite MCU costume? Don't know if this has been asked before.49:30 Hector Giovanni NavarreteYour personal favorite funniest moment/joke in the MCU?51:04 Michael Louis WeaselboyHey Sean hope your weekend is going good, my question is about the X-Men in the MCU, first off who do you think should be the villain in the first X-Men MCU film?? Who would you cast as that character?? What would be the lineup you would pick? And finally who would you cast as them?? Thanks for all that you do and I hope you have a nice weekend.54:16 AlexOut of all the Fox movies that was currently in development before the Disney deal was announced that we know of like the Doctor Doom film, Kitty Pyrde film, or the Gambit film which movie would you most want to be saved and be re-purposed to fit in the MCU and which project would you most like to see Marvel abandon?56:20 AlexIf Spider-Man was to leave the MCU after ‘Far From Home' what do you think will be the biggest missed opportunity that comes with Spider-Man's MCU tenure coming to an end? For myself it would be Spider-Man not being in the MCU long enough to be able to meet/interact with Fox characters like Wolverine and Johnny Storm. I want Spider-Man to meet the Fantastic Four on screen before I die. I want that so badly.58:48 AlexJeremy Conrad and Christopher Marc(former Editor-In-Chief of a scoop site called Omega Underground) have been insistent that both Dark Phoenix & New Mutants will see a theatrical release even when Disney takes over and I have to wonder what you you think if both Dark Phoenix & New Mutants gets delayed again? Would you still be somewhat confident Disney would release those movies despite the mutiple delays based soley on that report by the Wall Street Journal that Disney will release those movies no matter what? I can't shake this sneaking feeling that something is going to happen with these movies soon.1:04:42 Liam HeslinHi Sean and fellow Patrons, hope everyone is having a nice start to their weekend. I saw a tweet on Friday from Daniel Richtman saying any Fox movie not already in production (like Dark Phoenix and New Mutants) will likely be scrapped when the Disney-Fox deal finally closes. My question is what do you think this means for a potential X-Force movie? I was under the impression that Fox has Josh Brolin and Zazi Beetz locked up for more movies and even if X-Force is delayed will those contracts get handed over to Disney after the deal? Thanks as always for answering our questions and creating such an awesome community for Marvel fans.1:08:37 Alex WardDo you think Marvel Studios would consider doing reshoots of New Mutants to make it their own? I think the casting was perfect so I would hate to see it go to "waste". The only downside to that idea I can think of is that it would probably interfere with their overall X-plans. Also, what do you think of the casting and roster of New Mutants?1:10:37 Alex WardAlso, we've talked before about how the timing of the Fox deal will likely prevent certain characters from ever being able to interact. For example, if Cap dies in Endgame, he'll never meet Wolverine, and so on. What character interactions between current MCU characters and FF/X-Men characters are you most hoping to see? I just have one: Spidey and Human Torch, maybe with them both going to the same high school!1:13:08 Alex Ward]In-universe, are the MCU heroes having adventures between the movies, maybe even against other villains, or are we seeing all of their heroics onscreen? I know it's implied that characters like Loki and Thor were up to something before Ragnarok, but for other characters it's not so clear. For example, it's hard for me to infer whether Cap, Natasha, Falcon and the gang were doing any missions while in hiding.1:14:49 Alex WardThis sort of has to do with the previous question: how would you feel about an MCU "canon" similar to what Star Wars does, in which all the books, comics, video games, and other supplemental materials are now canonical? I know we have the tie-in comics, and that these characters *came* from comics, but I think they're such significant pop culture characters that they now transcend any specific media format. I know we have books like Thanos: Titan Consumed, but while it takes place within the MCU, it's been clearly described as non-canonical.1:20:42 Woo S! KimWhat do you think of the possibilities that the post credit scene in "Avengers: Infinity War" where Hill and Fury are driving take place after the events of "Spider-Man: Far From Home?" also I wou be shocked if I am the only one that's thought of that.

Episode 22!!Fantastic 4!!or depending how you read the title on the movie cover i guess its "Fan4stic." A movie we originally thought was gonna be promising when it first came out. It has a great cast with a terrible director. Was a gritty fantastic 4 movie really what we needed? The Christopher Nolan formula doesn't work for all movies thats for sure. This has been on our list to disect for some time and we finally attacked it!! Enjoy and subscribe!!! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/itcamefrom-thevideostore/support
I don't care what anyone says. Fantastic 4, or as it's more commonly known amongst my friends, Fan4stic, is one of the worst superhero movies I have ever seen. And to help prove that point I bring in a certified Doctor who has never seen it before to give me his hot take on the situation. To be clear, all of the Fantastic 4 movies made so far have been pretty rough, but we are talking about the Josh Trank-made dumpster fire from 2015.
Ugh, We're talking about Suicide Squad. In this episode: A brief attempt to explain Secret Wars. Scott hates Uber for the dumbest reason. A desperate attempt to avoid talking about Suicide Squad. Jess bothers to show up. (Thanks Jess.) Ashley attempts to shame Jamie and Scott. Shame her @iserradean. Actually, you might as well shame us too. @goddamnitscott @thatcomicfan Jamie immediately loses control. (Not really uncommon) This movie has serious problems with its depictions of women. Bold statements about Fan4stic vs. Suicide Squad. Star Trek Into Darkness Chat. Watch Star Trek Beyond instead. We care about the Joker/Harley Quinn a whole lot more than David Ayer. The costume design in this movie are terribad. We try make a better version better version of this movie. Panelists: Jamie, Ashley, Andrew, Ryan, Scott, Jess

In which our heroes wonder where the money went, puzzle over the missing scenes, and thank god the cast did their best as they set their sights on fixing Fan4stic. They discuss the weird way the movie only gets bad in its second half, Doom's green leanings, and eventually turn the military into Mole Men. James calls out the Internet, Zammit ends up talking about Skrulls, Bandit Incorporated hopes to one day read the original script, and Gabe wants everyone to know just how perfect this film was. So get hammered, invite around your girlfriend, her brother and your best friend and hop in a spaceship to an alternate dimension. It's a confusing mess, but a confusing mess you have to experience.
