Fantastic Four reboot-- Casting, Rumors, Pix, ect;

(This was in response to Theenglish, Nerys Mylk posted while I was typing)
According to wikipedia Ultimate Dr. Doom was caught in the same Negative Zone teleporter accident as the UFF,
Wikipedia said:
and his flesh was changed into a metallic hide (with a somewhat reduced ability to perceive tactile sensations and pain), clawed hands, his legs transmogrified into demonic goat-hooved legs, and he re-appeared on Earth in Copenhagen

Puts Johnny being black in perspective. :lol:
Seriously. Making Doom's armor a "power" has to be the stupidest thing. That along with giving Doom credit for Reed's inventions.
 
It's bad news if you had any hope for Fantastic Four.

I don't know, reading some of the reports it looks as if others involved in the production stepped in to 'pull the movie together' when Trank wasn't performing.

It'll depend how well they did...

Depending on how who the "insider" is, this could easily be a conflict between the vision of the producers and the director rather than under-performance by the director.

There are complaints from fans about movies when the production studios seem to take over (Spider-Man) and now there are complaints when the director doesn't conform to studio decisions. People are never happy.

The things I've read were talking about Trank being withdrawn, uncommunicative, uninvolved and bizarrely, causing a large amount of property damge...

In the article that was linked, there is very little about who is giving the information. The property damage was caused by his dogs because he left them inside a strange house by themselves apparently.

I just think that this article really doesn't say very much.

Probably not. I hope he's O.K. and that the film turns out well.

I'm certainly looking forward to it from what I've seen.
 
When I went to the first link all I got was the HR homepage. I did read the Yahoo story though. If the stories about Trank's behavior on FF are true, then that's shame. It makes me kind of wonder if perhaps he couldn't handle taking on such a big movie.
 
What? He's a diva?

Geniuses are supposed to be divas.

Thing is, that this guy has not enough streetcred to earn himself a douche bag hallpass.

Spielberg is allowed to eat human babies and no one complains a jot.

Fantastic Four now must some how make 4 billion dollars just to stick it to Disney.

It can also mean that he didn't want to compromise with studio demands for the project. It will be interesting to hear the actors take on this, but we will need to wait a while for that.

Guy, sometimes your posts make me wish there was a like button on this thread--you leave me with nothing to say sometimes but with coca cola all over my keyboard from laughing so hard just as I am taking a drink.

So are you saying maybe it was just frustration from not being able to do what he wanted?

I'm saying that the story itself is so vague and without proper sources or full research. It seems like gossip more than actual reporting. It is one of those articles that people who have preconceived notions about the film are going to latch onto to provide further "evidence" for their unsubstantiated opinions.
 
That house must have been filled with some pretty expensive stuff for a couple of small dogs to do $100,000 worth of damage. In ordinary people terms, that's like they tore down the whole damn house.

One report I saw on it compared him to a college basketball player who moves to the A-list teams and has the talent but not the temperament or character to adjust to the jump.
