Guy A. Person posted:The article makes it seem like the opposite of that: Phillips himself approached them right after the big opening weekend to secure multiple rights which they were hesitant to do, but gave him "at least" one (which makes sense depending on what character(s), since he was able to make a billion off a relatively super small budget). What if they meant multiple srand alone Joker origin story movies

There must be an example of an artist doing a series of works that are only related in an intentional, superficial, and obvious manner. It seems so obvious that it must exist. Sudden Loud Noise fucked around with this message at 05:17 on Nov 21, 2019 |

I think the closest thing is probably when a storyteller creates a character or mcguffin that is purely the vehicle to a series of somewhat abstract, or at the very least, independent vignettes.

I mean, I'm not speaking to their quality, but Kevin Smith's View Askewniverse certainly fits. Jay and Silent Bob are in all of them, but usually just as side characters, once just as a one scene cameo, but there are plenty of connections beyond even them. They're all the same universe, but not in a way that (usually) matters in any meaningful way. thrawn527 fucked around with this message at 15:34 on Nov 21, 2019 |

Talks of a Joker sequel may have been premature. Don’t Dress For ‘Joker’ Sequel Yet; Insiders Say Todd Phillips Never Pitched Origin Film Series On Other DC Characters quote:Those sources add that the linchpin of today’s THR story — that a week after Joker‘s opening, Phillips met with Warner Bros film chief Toby Emmerich to pitch a portfolio of DC character origin stories — is as flat false as earlier stories that Martin Scorsese contemplated directing the first Joker (Scorsese was originally going to be a producer but dropped out because of his crowded schedule). Multiple sources said no such October 7 meeting between Phillips and Emmerich occurred, and that Phillips doesn’t want to follow Joker by overseeing other DC character films. What he has talked about in interviews is that when Joker was in its inception, there were discussions of a DC Black initiative. He instead focused on Joker. That was a long time ago.

This is really nice, honestly. I’ve never seen F4 2015 and know nothing about Trank really but it’s cool to just see someone be like “yeah I probably hosed this up” Blast Fantasto fucked around with this message at 04:03 on Nov 23, 2019 |

I believe in the Trank cut. Because honestly, it is two movies put together, and one of them was interesting. The weirdest thing about the obvious reshoots is rather than aping the MCU, it's more like they were going for the 2004 FF.

wyoming posted:I believe in the Trank cut. Yeah, this is why I can't fully say that FF42K15 was bad. Because on the one hand, it is without a doubt pretty bad on the whole. But there are enough glimpses of a much more interesting movie within it that it's worth watching at least once to see those bits. I still hold that Trank's career being destroyed over that movie while Simon Kinberg survived to keep failing upwards is an amazing maneuver on Kinberg's part.

Trank has an Al Capone movie with Tom Hardy in post production so maybe he’s not quite calling it a career yet.

Besides being bad, it was really odd to see how much body horror was in that Fantastic Four movie, it was completely missing the point of the property.

The point of the fantastic four is that there's nothing horrific about being turned into an orange rock monster?

For real, the Thing hating how repulsive he is was a major storyline throughout Lee and Kirby's original run and through the franchise as a whole. Mark Waid did a pretty good comic where Reed Richards told baby Franklin the FF origin story from his point of view, where everyone was scared after their rocket accident and how they were mutating, and how Richards invented superhero personas for them in order to avoid stigma. It was a pretty good way of analyzing the original story through a lens of psychological realism.

There's a reason the Venture Bros version of the F4 is basically their original powerset minus the required secondary powers to make it remotely useful. (Taking 'invisible skin' horribly literally and such) And the whole 50s patriarch idea being a horrible combination with that. Actually, the Batman Beyond take on them isn't too different, though having all their powers be both legitimately useful and involve horrific physical mutation. (And playing up the idea of only having 3 out of 4 transformed and the repercussions) One of the strengths of classic superheroes is that they've been around for so long that there's lots of different angles you can take with legitimate roots in the source material, and a director can and should be able to pick and choose what elements they'd like to play with. Especially since a seemingly minor change in tone can produce new and interesting results providing a breath of fresh air to even a stale franchise.

A movie should do whatever is interesting when adapting material and not be beholden to some strict rubric that keeps it perfectly in line with what it's adapting. I think exploring the horror of their bodies being radically altered is an interesting place to take things and as mentioned is even covered pretty extensively in the comics with The Thing. It's just a shame the back half of the movie falls apart so quickly and doesn't follow through on the more promising first act.

I think themes of body horror could definetely be an interesting part of a superhero story, my problem is that that theme is completely unsuitable for the Fantastic Four. I would say that they are pretty much the most family friendly Marvel property, and turning FF into a horror movie is completely missing the point of making a FF movie. If you want to explore those themes then something like X-Men would be much more appropriate, even the now dead New Mutants movie seemed to go for something similar and that would have worked fine.

I don't give a poo poo about 1950s era happy housewife perfect family fantastic four, give me body horror poo poo since I'm more familiar with the venture Bros version than whatever ff was known for a century ago that doesn't resonate Alternatively give me a good movie about Doom, one of the only compelling villains in marvel not named magneto
