cobalt<p>Advance screening we saw of Fantastic Four tonight: I liked it a lot more than I thought I would. <a href="https://beige.party/tags/FantasticFour" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FantasticFour</span></a> </p><p>I remembered, during this movie set in the early 60’s, that I was 12 first reading these comics. They were plenty exciting for the time. Short on the science but then the general public really didn’t know that much about science or space and less about technology. Science fiction was largely unknown. </p><p>My son John found it entertaining but he likely would not have paid to see it. He won the tickets from <a href="https://beige.party/tags/KUPD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>KUPD</span></a> The theatre was full: filled with young boys, teens, and the nerdiest nerds of all ages you can imagine. </p><p>We agree that I prolly related more because a lot that was clunky is because fashion/cars/tech and people were clunky then. </p><p>Reminded me why my brother and I were DC fans not Marvel at that time. The characters were far more relatable and not as pretentious or goody-goodie. </p><p>We both think this is one that was far better in IMAX and unlikely to come across well in a regular theatre. Will be lame if you wait to watch on a TV. I’m not seeing a huge moneymaking blockbuster hit out of this run. Sorry Disney and MCU. I give it 7/10, my son likely 6/10 or 5/10. <a href="https://beige.party/tags/MCU" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MCU</span></a></p>
