Between the RT score and record-low box office numbers, Fant4stic is entering "Worst Superhero Movie Ever" territory. Which...It really isn't that in terms of the actual movie. Not even close. It's close to Superman Returns. It's just a bland kinda boring movie. It's not completely terrible but it's not really worth seeking out. When stuff like Catwoman and the Two GhostRiders are out there? Nah. Nah nah nah. Superman 4? Jesus. EDIT: The Spirit?! Elektra?

Superman Returns is really good movie. It just isn't a good superhero or superman movie. I meant more in terms of tone and pacing. It's sorta slow and not much happens. There's nothing really THAT wrong with it. It's just kinda there.

Wow. I heard $34.1mil earlier today. It's actuall drop $5mil....??
So much for that franchise. Reckon Fox goes full bore with the X-Men (including getting that rumored TV off the ground) and lets F4 lapse..,

(because seriously f*** Miles Teller starring in dog food commercials, let alone movies)

You didn't feel too sorry for Miles Teller's character in Whiplash since he himself was an asshole (breaking up with his girlfriend because he believes she is taking focus away from his music is despicable). But you do feel a little sorry when he is abused by JK Simmons' character (especially hearing another kid committed suicide because of him, seeing him bleed playing the drums, and him getting kicked out of the group because he was injured from a car crash and couldn't play correctly).

Plus, there are infinite lines that are quotable in bed. ...I've said too much.

Yeah, I love Fletcher as a character, he's amazing, but he's still a piece of shit.

JK Simmons definitely did deserve that Oscar, but I have only seen that film once and I am too uncomfortable with seeing it again given the verbal abuse shown. He is an unstable dictator of his music class.

Yeah, I love Fletcher as a character, he's amazing, but he's still a piece of shit. He is truly one of the most evil characters I have ever seen in a film that didn't have to do any crazy over the top murderous acts even though I'm sure if he was given the opportunity he wouldn't hesitate. JK Simmons deserved that Oscar like dude played a guy who was evil, but not in any way sympthetic, very entertaining but dials it down to make you uncomfortable at times that you can't cheer for him anymore. One of the best movie characters of all time and his chemistry with Miles Teller was great. I've only seen Miles Teller in three movies so far Project X, Whiplash, and 21 & Over and I think the kid can act so far. Like 21 & Over was a movie that took me by surprise when shit got surprisingly heavy, deep, and struck a chord with me at some points but I was impressed with Miles Teller for not coasting on the role when it was a role he could of easily just hacked his way through. Like he provided heart in a movie that should not have heart the same way that John Cusack did in Hot Tub Time Machine in a role he could of easily hacked his way through especially with his name value. Now I fully understand all of his never ending being compared to John Cusack comparisons come from

He is an unstable dictator of his music class. He was basically a more aggressive version of JJJ if he were a music instructor and was personally teaching Spider-Man how to play drums. (This analogy would've been doubly comical had Simmons returned as Jameson in the Marvel Studios/Sony Spider-Man, and Teller starred as Spidey.)
