The biggest pop culture impact of the Fantastic Four was reviving the superhero comic in the 60's.

Reed's always been a prick.

The depiction of Reed has always been much more ambiguous than that.

Or like how people like to say he's the father figure of the family. How, exactly? None of them are his kids. Ben is a peer. Johnny is a "kid" but Reed has married his sister, who's merely a few years older. He may be a genius but the character is good because Lee and Kirby never just said anything and everything he did was okay because he's "Dad". In fact one of the things that made FF so revolutionary (like Spider-Man) was that the characters change over time. This is why you don't have Flash Thompson pushing Peter Parker around still 40 years later.

They really didn't expect Hiddleston being much more popular than Hemsworth.

I keep seeing this place referred to as dead, is the situation really so dire or are we comparing it to like, reddit, which has like 4 billion users?

This forum moves fast enough that there are days I can't read all the new posts in the threads I follow. Reddit sounds like a nightmare.

I would love for someone to claim that Reddit is better than any forum and not be joking about it.

It's probably better than Stormfront.

You're not allowed to use racial slurs on Stormfront.

? Is he playing a part in this, like usual, or being weirdly honest? It's not like their usual goofy stuff.

The longball is that Tim's full of himself because he's now a movie star, also, he's needling Gregg about his cameo.

A Gump & Co. movie would have been batshit.
