"I herald his beginning. I herald your end." We herald the return of Alex and Zach to the MCU! We take our first steps into Phase Six with the return of Marvel's First Family to the big screen in THE FANTASTIC FOUR: FIRST STEPS. We compare the 37th film in the MCU to the previous cinematic attempts at the Fantastic Four, examine if its retro-future style over substance and how this movie takes us towards the end of the Multiverse Saga and Avengers: Doomsday.TIME STAMPS:0:27 - Intro1:55 - Background3:30 - Non-Spoiler Review17:15 - Concession Stand (Sweet, Salty, Refresher) - SPOILERS AHEAD46:39 - Fantastic Four + Tomorrowland in Disneyland50:39 - Post-Credit Scenes - SPOILERS AHEAD54:18 - MCU Connections / Looking Ahead to Avengers: Doomsday - SPOILERS AHEAD1:00:46 - Other MCU Projects1:04:01 - Avatar 3: Fire and Ash Trailer Thoughts1:06:17 - What's the next "big" movie?1:09:07 - OutroFollow us on Instagram @a.z_moviereview.

Editors - Nona Khodai ACE and Tim Roche The Fantastic Four: First Steps sees editors Nona Khodai and Tim Roche reunite for the 37th film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) and the second reboot of the Fantastic Four film series. The film also marks the first time the two have worked together since Marvel's live action series debut, WandaVision. Although each had worked with him separately before, WandaVision was the first time both Nona and Tim worked with director Matt Shakman on a Marvel project. The Fantastic Four: First Steps takes place in 1964, as the world celebrates the fourth anniversary of astronauts Reed Richards, Sue Storm, Johnny Storm, and Ben Grimm becoming the superhero team known as the Fantastic Four (Mister Fantastic, Invisible Woman, Human Torch and the Thing). But the celebration doesn't last for long as the four face their most daunting challenge yet as they defend Earth from Galactus and Silver Surfer. NONA KHODAI ACE A Southern California native and graduate of USC's Cinematic Arts school, Nona started her career as an assistant on such films as the Bad Robot production, Super 8. Her first foray as an editor on a "superhero" project came courtesy of showrunner Eric Kripke who brought her aboard the The Boys, where she would work with director Matt Shakman for the first time. Nona was twice nominted for an Emmy award for her work on Marvel's WandaVision, and nominated for another Emmy for Marvel's Ms. Marvel. TIM ROCHE Known for his work on comedy series like Silicon Valley and It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, as well as for his contributions to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, including WandaVision, Thor: Love and Thunder and She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, Tim has received five Emmy nominations for his work, including one this year for Welcom To Wrexham, a show that has already brought him an ACE Eddie Award.

Send us a textAs promised, this week on episode #109 of "Fabulous Film & Friends we're going to weigh in on the two big ticket super hero extravaganzas from the Summer of 2025: James Gunn's Superman starring David Corenswet, Rachel Brosnahan, Skyler Gisando, Wendell Pierce, Edi Gathegi, Nathan Fillion, Isabela Merced, Sara Sampaio and Nicholas Hoult up against The Fantastic Four: First Steps directed by Matt Shakman and starring Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Ebon Moss Bachrach, Joseph Quinn, Julia Garner and Ralph Ineson. Returning for yet another daringly detailed deep dive into the world of fantastical four colored fantasies is nephew to a comic bookstore Kingpin, author, teacher and hypnotherapist, Joe Field. Before we blast off into the Ultra-Negative Zone, the synopses: In 2025's Superman, it is 3 years into his mission and Earth's Champion, The Man of Steel has met his match in Lex Luthor who causes a distraction with a giant monster and breaks into Superman's secret Fortress of Solitude where he translates a message from Superman's parents in which they instruct their son Kal El –Superman's Kryptonian name-- to take over earth and spread his seed. Using this jarringly awkward info to turn public opinion against our hero, Luthor has also made a clone of Superman called Ultraman who continually batters and beats the Man of Steel into submission. On top of that, Luthor has a Pocket Universe where he jails his enemies including his ex-girlfriends. And Lex has Ultraman place Superman in a cage with another a super powered being named Metamorpho who can weaken Superman by turning his hands into Kryptonite. Ultimately, Luthor's cruelty overwhelms Metamorpho who helps Superman escape the pocket universe but it in doing so, the unstable dimensional rift threatens to swallow Earth. It is only with the help of scrappy reporter Lois Lane and a team of heroes called The Justice Gang that Superman that is able to beat Ultraman, Luthor and close the rift. There's also some political stuff going on with two made up countries going to War because of Luthor's manipulations. In The Fantastic Four: First Steps it has been four years since Reed Richards, Sue Storm, her brother Johnny and Ben Grimm were transformed by cosmic rays into the world's protectors, super stretchy genius Mr. Fantastic, The Invisible Woman, The Human Torch and the rock man known as The Thing who are biggest celebrities on the planet. The exciting news that team leaders Reed Richards and Sue Storm are expecting their first child is put on the back burner by the arrival of the Silver Surfer the herald of the planet eating Celestial known as Galactus. Galactus tells the Fantastic Four that he will spare Earth in exchange for their yet unborn child, but that his too high a price to pay. With the public opinion against them, and world watching nervously, the team springs into action and devises a incredible plan to teleport planet earth into the far reaches of space. But then the Surfer and Galactus arrive and put the kabosh on the plan so the FF amends the plan to send Galactus himself into the far reaches of space, which seemed like the better strategy to begin with.

In a cultural landscape where moral ambiguity and deconstructed families often dominate the screen, Fantastic Four surprises with a radiant affirmation of traditional family values and the sacredness of life. Beneath its retrofuturistic flair and cosmic spectacle lies a profoundly human—and dare we say, Christian—story about sacrificial love, the dignity of motherhood, and the redemptive power of faith. Join Jeremy Jeremiah, Mario Andrew, and James St. Simon in this fun discussion.At the heart of the film is Sue Storm, portrayed not as a feminist caricature or action trope, but as a luminous embodiment of maternal virtue. Faced with an excruciating moral dilemma—whether to sacrifice her unborn child to save the world—Sue refuses to accept a utilitarian calculus that pits life against life. Her courage to say "no" to both evil and compromise resonates deeply with the Christian ethic: that every life is sacred, and that love "always protects, always trusts, always hopes" (1 Corinthians 13:7). Her choice is not merely heroic—it's holy.Equally powerful is the portrayal of Reed Richards, played by Pedro Pascal. Rather than the tired stereotype of the aloof or foolish father, Reed is depicted as both brilliant and tender—a husband who listens, leads, and loves. Their marriage is a partnership of mutual respect and shared mission, echoing the biblical vision of man and woman as complementary reflections of God's image (Genesis 1:27).The film's most striking spiritual parallel may come through the Silver Surfer—a fallen messenger transformed by love and conscience. Once a herald of destruction, she embraces self-sacrifice to save others, offering a compelling image of redemption that echoes Christ's words: “Whoever loses his life for My sake will find it” (Matthew 10:39).Even Galactus, the film's cosmic antagonist, serves as a cautionary symbol: a voracious void of endless consumption, mirroring the spiritual danger of living without purpose or communion. He is the anti-Christ figure—not in religious terms, but in the sense of being the embodiment of appetite without love, power without sacrifice.In an era where storytelling often strips heroism of moral clarity and downplays the beauty of family, Fantastic Four feels like a breath of fresh air—an invitation to remember that true strength is not found in spectacle or self-interest, but in the willingness to love, protect, and give.If this is the direction Marvel is heading, there is reason for hope. Hollywood, it seems, may be rediscovering what Scripture has always affirmed: that the greatest stories are the ones that mirror the greatest truths.Find an Orthodox Church near you today.

HE IS HERE FINALLY !!!! The correct version of him Aside from that The silver surfer and Sue Storm stole the show for me Incredible feats of strength and amazing sequence in the middle of the movie
It's the end of an era and the dawning of a new one. Fantastic Four: First Steps was phenomenal in ways that the Nerd Alert Girls cheer about. Johnny Storm gets to show off his emotional intelligence; Sue Storm gives major Mama Bear energy; Reed Richards is a precious, neurodivergent bean; and Ben Grimm is the best boi who deserves the world. From the superb casting to the emotionally evocative family themes, this movie was a slam dunk and, hopefully, a foreshadowing of things to come for Marvel.
Mit "First Steps" gelingt Marvel ein echter Balanceakt. Der Film ist actionreich, unterhaltsam und visuell beeindruckend, gleichzeitig aber getragen von glaubwürdigen Figuren und einer erstaunlich starken Gruppendynamik. Er ist keine One-Man-Show und auch kein CGI-Overkill, sondern ein Ensemble-Film, der die "First Family" des Marvel-Universums endlich so zeigt, wie sie gedacht war. Als Team, das nicht aus coolen Sprüchen besteht, sondern aus Bindung, Konflikten und Vertrauen.Was besonders auffällt, ist das Spiel der vier Hauptdarsteller. Sie wirken nicht wie Castings für ein Poster, sondern wie echte Figuren mit Vergangenheit. Reed Richards ist forsch und brillant, aber innerlich zerrissen. Sue Storm hat als Figur endlich Raum. Sie ist nicht nur die Stimme der Vernunft, sondern selbst komplex. Johnny bringt Tempo und Reibung, ohne zur Karikatur zu werden. Und Ben Grimm, das "Ding", ist mehr als nur ein tragischer Sidekick. Er ist der emotionale Anker des Films.

To pay for his daughter Vienna's ballet school in Paris, he returns to pro golf—and chaos ensues. The film leans hard into callbacks, celebrity cameos, and legacy sequel nostalgia.  Director: Kyle Newacheck Writers: Tim Herlihy & Adam Sandler  Cast: Adam Sandler as Happy Gilmore Julie Bowen as Virginia Venit Christopher McDonald as Shooter McGavin Ben Stiller as Hal L. (in sobriety group leadership) Bad Bunny as Happy's new caddy Benny Safdie as golf mogul Frank Manatee Additional Cast: Sunny Sandler (Vienna), Sadie Sandler, Travis Kelce, Margaret Qualley, John Daly, Rory McIlroy, Eminem (cameos), and more sport & music legends   Production Notes: Produced by Happy Madison and STX Films, filmed in North Jersey over fall 2024; directed by Newacheck with music by Rupert Gregson-Williams. The production is built around cameo-heavy nostalgia and real-world athletes.  Budget: Estimated at $30 million, modest compared to legacy sequel standards.  Distribution: Released globally via Netflix on July 25, 2025.  Reception: Critics remain divided—mixed reviews on Rotten Tomatoes (65%) and Popcornmeter (~70%). Praise comes for Sandler's commitment and cameo spectacle; criticism centers on overreliance on callbacks, tonally uneven storytelling (including a shocking death), and lazy legacy sequel tropes. Some outlets called it a “cinematic disaster,” while others saw it as funny and heartfelt escapism.  Rating out of 10 Cameo Filled Nostalgic Rounds of Maxi Golf Darryl: 2/10 Brian: 7.5/10 Fantastic Four: First Steps (2025) Summary Set in a retro‑futuristic 1960s alternate universe (Earth‑828), Reed Richards, Sue Storm, Johnny Storm, and Ben Grimm are already established heroes expecting their first child. When cosmic threats like Galactus and Silver Surfer emerge, the team must band together to save the world—and their family dynamic. Director: Matt Shakman Writers: Josh Friedman, Eric Pearson, Jeff Kaplan, Ian Springer; story contributions by Kat Wood  Cast: Pedro Pascal (Mister Fantastic) Vanessa Kirby (Invisible Woman) Joseph Quinn (Human Torch) Ebon Moss‑Bachrach (The Thing) Julia Garner (Silver Surfer) Ralph Ineson (Galactus) Paul Walter Hauser (Mole Man/Harvey Elder) John Malkovich as Red Ghost (cameo)  Production Notes: Filmed at Pinewood Studios in the UK with shoots in Derbyshire Dales and Oviedo; styled with practical miniatures, retro‑futuristic set design reminiscent of Jack Kirby comics; score by Michael Giacchino recorded at Abbey Road Studios; executive production overseen by Kevin Feige; post‑credits nod to late producer Jamie Christopher and director's mother Inez Shakman in homage scenes  Budget: Estimated over $200 million  Box Office (Opening Weekend): Domestic 3‑day: $117.6–118M across 4,125 theaters (including ~$57M previews) International: $100M from 52 territories Global debut: ~$218M   Reception & Context: Critical consensus: ~88% on Rotten Tomatoes; CinemaScore “A‑” reflects strong audience response. Reviews praise cast chemistry, emotional grounding, and visual style—though tone is more serious than comic-minded critics expected. Some reviewers note a pacing lull and lack of overt humor from a director known for lighter work. Industry analysts call this the first confirmed MCU blockbuster of 2025—ushering in Phase 6 with confidence and momentum after previous underperformers.

The Film Board assembles to break down Fantastic Four: First Steps, Marvel's bold leap into retro sci-fi parenthood. With Pedro Pascal stretching into Reed Richards and Vanessa Kirby shining as Sue Storm, the MCU skips the origin story to explore cosmic ethics, vintage flair, and a planet-hungry Galactus. Does skipping the intro pay off? How does a family of adventurers fit into a superhero universe? And is The Incredibles still the best Fantastic Four movie ever made?Pete Wright hosts the panel with Kyle Olson, Rob Kubasko, and Matthew Fox as they debate whether this is a sequel to a film we never got, if Silver Surfer stole the show, and what the MCU's multiversal reset might mean for this corner of the timeline. Plus: theology, parenting ethics, synagogue scenes, Herbie the robot, unstable molecules, and the Reed Richards car seat challenge.
The Fantastic Four finally arrive in the MCU... sort of? Pedro Pascal as Reed Richards, Vanessa Kirby as Sue Storm, Joseph Quinn as Johnny Storm/the Human Torch, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach as Ben Grimm/the Thing must unite to save an alternate Earth from Ralph Ineson's Galactus and Julia Garner's Silver Surfer, but are their power's combined enough to set Marvel's Multiverse Saga back on track? What about the threat of Robert Downey Jr's Doctor Doom and the arrival of AVENGERS DOOMDAY?

When Marvel announced yet another Fantastic Four reboot, skepticism ran high. After all, the team has had a rocky cinematic history. But this fresh take on Marvel's First Family is a welcome surprise that breathes new life into these classic characters by skipping the tired origin story completely.Set in an alternate 1960s universe, we meet the team four years after gaining their powers. They're established heroes, scientists, and celebrities – complete with merchandise, branding, and public adoration. This lived-in world immediately feels more authentic than previous adaptations. The retro aesthetic perfectly captures the spirit of the original comics while giving the film a distinctive visual identity separate from the main MCU.What truly elevates this adaptation is the stellar cast and their genuine family chemistry. Pedro Pascal brings unexpected depth to Reed Richards, portraying him as a brilliant scientist whose analytical mind sometimes puts him at odds with his humanity. Vanessa Kirby's Sue Storm emerges as the team's true leader – diplomatic, powerful, and the glue holding everyone together. Joseph Quinn reinvents Johnny Storm as more scientifically minded while maintaining his playful spirit, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach's Thing serves as the emotional anchor beyond just his super strength.The introduction of Franklin Richards creates genuine emotional stakes when Galactus threatens Earth. Ralph Ineson's terrifying vocal performance and the visualization of the planet-eater's enormous scale create a cosmic threat unlike anything in previous Marvel films. Meanwhile, Julia Garner's Silver Surfer brings fascinating complexity through her interactions with Johnny Storm.While the film emphasizes science and problem-solving over traditional superhero action (which might disappoint some viewers), it succeeds by presenting the Fantastic Four as scientists first and superheroes second. This approach, combined with Paul Walter Hauser's scene-stealing Mole Man and a tantalizing Doctor Doom tease, has reignited excitement for these characters' future in Marvel's cinematic landscape.Have you seen the Fantastic Four yet?

Read transcriptFlame on, podcast listeners! This week we're stretching our way back to 2005 to tackle the Fantastic Four game that somehow managed to land on more consoles than Reed Richards has had scientific breakthroughs. Based on the first Fox movie that made us all question whether Hollywood truly understood what “fantastic” meant, this multi-platform adventure promised to let us clobber our way through levels faster than Ben Grimm goes through doorframes. Joining us for this cosmic-powered gaming expedition is Anthony Sytko from Capes on the Couch, who's here to help us determine whether this game was the ultimate power or just another case of “it's clobberin' time” gone wrong. We'll be exploring how this tie-in game managed to squeeze onto everything from GameCube to Game Boy Advance, and whether any version actually captured the magic of Marvel's first family – or if they all just left us feeling more invisible than Sue Storm on a bad day. So grab your unstable molecules costume and prepare for a gaming experience that's sure to be more unpredictable than Johnny Storm's dating life. It's time to see if this Fantastic Four adaptation was truly marvelous or just another victim of the superhero movie game curse! Learn such things as: Does yelling “FLAME ON!” improve your loading times? Is this the worst timeline for Dr. Doom? How long can we go without saying something about America's Ass? And so much more! You can find Anthony @CapesOnTheCouch on BlueSky, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and of course the Capes on the Couch website.

It's been 10 years since the debacle that was fan4stic and we thought Micheal B. Jordan would never be in a comic book movie again. Fantastic Four: First Steps is a celebration of Marvel's first family in a way that honors the legend of Jack Kirby and illustrates the determination of Kevin Feige. Matt Shakman (friend of the pod) directs this visually stunning homage to the space race 60's, world of tomorrow-esque look into this alternate universe's idealism, that's anchored by Sue Storm and the rest of the Fantastic Four. With everything this movie does right, there is one thing we get into that was surprisingly left out.

The Marvel Cinematic Universe is kicking off Phase Six with some familiar faces: Reed Richards, Sue Storm, Ben Grimm, and Johnny Storm (a.k.a. Mister Fantastic, Invisible Woman, The Thing, and the Human Torch). There have been a few Fantastic Four films that came before this one, but were they able to get the formula right this time? Joel and Kent are prepared to share their spoiler-free thoughts on The Fantastic Four: First Steps. Zack hasn't seen the movie yet, but he's going to brave this entire BaconBit, even after we enter spoiler space. Will we flame on this latest superhero reboot? Or is it clobberin' time for the MCU again? Press play to find out.
Mr. Honest returns fresh out of the theater to share his raw, unfiltered reaction to Fantastic Four: First Steps (2025) — a movie bursting with cosmic power, heart-wrenching decisions, and the return of Marvel's first family. We break down:
On this episode of Challenge Accepted, Frank and Thomas dive deep into Fantastic Four: First Steps, Marvel's latest take on its original superhero team. They unpack what makes this version click—from the emotional dynamics between the characters to the classic comic book roots baked into the plot. They also debate Pedro Pascal's Reed Richards, celebrate Vanessa Kirby's commanding performance as Sue, and break down what that end credits Doom reveal means for the future of the MCU. This one's packed with takes, comic knowledge, and that signature CA banter. Timestamps and Topics: 00:00 Intro and first reactions 00:34 Emotional tone and visual impact 01:17 The family dynamic and what Marvel nailed 02:06 Comparing Fantastic Four and Superman's reboots 03:13 Marvel's tonal shift and 60s sci-fi inspirations 04:07 Spoiler alert and space travel discussions 05:24 Comic nods: Galactus, Mole Man, Red Ghost 07:00 The return of recurring villains in the MCU 10:06 Deep character breakdown: Sue, Reed, Johnny, Ben 13:40 Ben and Reed's friendship complexity 18:09 Pedro Pascal as Reed Richards—does it work? 24:02 Franklin Richards and the film's emotional core 27:10 Comic comparisons and MCU differences 30:32 CGI highs and lows 35:00 Galactus' design and introduction 37:00 Final battle and team synergy 41:04 Stretching powers and future potential 46:49 Mid and post-credit scene breakdowns 51:00 Multiverse theories and TVA links 55:02 Final thoughts and sequel hopes Key Takeaways: Vanessa Kirby shines as Sue Storm, grounding the film with emotion and authority. This Fantastic Four reboot captures the sci-fi spirit of the comics while carving out a fresh MCU tone. Johnny Storm is finally more than comic relief—he's passionate, intelligent, and layered. Pedro Pascal delivers a solid performance, but debate remains whether he feels like Reed. Galactus and Silver Surfer bring scope and threat, with visual set pieces built for IMAX. The mid-credits Doom reveal got the loudest cheer in the theater—for good reason. Memorable Quotes: “This is the first time in a long time I walked out of a Marvel movie wanting a sequel—not the next MCU thing. Just more of this.” “Sue Storm runs this team. Period.” “I don't think Pedro was Reed. I think Pedro played someone like Reed.” “They didn't just adapt a comic—they brought 60s sci-fi to life.” “Galactus wasn't just big. He was felt—especially in IMAX.” Call to Action: If you enjoyed this episode, hit follow, leave a review, and share it with your Marvel-loving crew.

Andrew Gordon & John Humphrey unite for a Reaction & Review of Fantastic Four (2005), the action-packed superhero blockbuster that brought Marvel's First Family to the big screen! Directed by Tim Story (Barbershop, Ride Along), this early 2000s adaptation follows four astronauts who gain extraordinary powers after a cosmic radiation accident—setting the stage for one of the most iconic Marvel origin stories. Ioan Gruffudd (King Arthur, Titanic) stars as Reed Richards aka Mr. Fantastic, the brilliant but emotionally awkward scientist with the power of elasticity. Jessica Alba (Sin City, Into the Blue) plays Sue Storm aka the Invisible Woman, whose force fields and invisibility are matched by her inner strength and intelligence. Michael Chiklis (The Shield, American Horror Story) brings pathos and grit to Ben Grimm aka The Thing, a rock-skinned powerhouse grappling with his new form. Chris Evans (Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Knives Out) blazes onto the scene as Johnny Storm aka The Human Torch, whose cocky charm and flame powers light up the screen. The late Julian McMahon (Nip/Tuck, Charmed) menaces as Victor Von Doom aka Doctor Doom, a power-hungry industrialist turned metal-skinned tyrant. Kerry Washington (Scandal, Django Unchained) also stars as Alicia Masters, the kind-hearted sculptor who sees beyond Ben Grimm's monstrous exterior. From the unforgettable Brooklyn Bridge rescue scene to the climactic final battle with Doom, Fantastic Four features early 2000s Marvel flair, flashy powers, and crowd-pleasing teamwork. We'll explore what worked, what's aged... and what's still fantastic.

However, this movies does have its flaws such as reducing Sue Storm to mere eye candy when she's not even that kind of character in the comics.
