saw this on imdb:
(At the very end, when they see their new base, they decide they need a group name)
Reed: I think that the four of us need a name.
Sue: Why would we need a name?
Reed: Because we're a team now, and there's four of us...so, we should come up with a name for it.
Johnny: Like, The Human Torch and Torch-ets
Ben: How about The Big Brain and his Neurons?
Sue: How about The Big Brain and HER Neurons?
Johnny: How about two guys, a girl, and The Thing that nobody wanted?
Reed: (To Ben, looking at their new base) We've come a long way since the garage.
Ben: Gotta say, it's fantastic.
Reed: Say that again.
Ben: It's fantastic.
Reed: Yes, it is! Guys, I got it! Ready?
(End title card pops up) Fant4stic. The end.

I have a feeling this is a mediocre effort being unfairly labeled as a terrible one, I guess I will see for myself.£

Apparently this wasn't even in the film.
It isn't in the film, nor are a lot of other shots.

That end-credit scene. Razzie-winning performance right there. :judge:

Oh snap. I've heard Trank is now disowning the movie. There was a point when they decided to shut him off the production, the only question is when exactly did it start and how solid was his initial vision for the movie. They probably twitched nervously when he mentioned Fly, for starters, at least it sounded different; now the guy will either self-destruct entirely or restart and try to nail something smaller, again.

Fantastic Four needs to have that infectious team energy of Rogue Nation, for sure.

Seemed like something really tricky to adapt properly a la the Hulk franchise?
First two condemned for the whole cheesy, campy shtick, now Tranks' version getting done for the paper thin and moreso the self-serious thing (that's apparently unacceptable now for superhero movies? :problem: )

That said haven't looked at these production problems yet

It's shit because Fox doesn't give even half of a fuck, they'd rather play safe be completely risk averse.

Though, Trank was a puzzling choice to helm a big budget hero film to begin with.
