Why do I still have faith in the FF reboot?

Here's the article. Notable quote:

“He’s Victor Domashev, not Victor Von Doom, in our story,” Toby Kebbell, who will star as the Doctor, said in a recent interview on Collider. “And I’m sure I’ll be sent to jail for telling you that. The Doom in ours—I’m a programmer. Very antisocial programmer. And on blogging sites I’m ‘Doom.’”

Yeah, you and the writers should be put in jail...because you are making doctor doom a f*cking blogger.

Now the rant:

When I first heard about the direction this movie was going (making the Torch black) people on the internet called me racist. What they didn't know was that I'm actually black myself. My black friends and I all agreed that making the Torch black wasn't such a good idea. (It creates complications. And it really just seems like an unnecessary stunt, either to look PC or to attract more viewers or both.)

Then this picture leaks and again, I say wtf. Are they even trying anymore? But I can't complain too much sense it has to be rendered and finalized. Still though.

And remember: this movie is only being made so that the FF rights don't get reverted back to Marvel Studios. Same thing with the Amazing Spider-man series. I love the Fantastic Four. And the movies have the potential to be awesome but that's three strikes for this movie imo.

My love for the originality of this team is why I still have faith in it. The potential visuals that this movie could produce are mind-boggling-- but for god's sake the overall aspects of this movie are looking worse and worse.

OK now I have an actual essay that's due tomorrow. Can't procrastinate any longer.

This movie sounds like it's going to be a gawddamn train wreck

Sad that Michael B. Jordan has to be involved in this mess.

Hah, a supervillain that's a blogger. Cute.

Seriously, why DO you have faith in it? Originality doesn't always translate into anything good.

This movie is going to be Marvels downfall.

@squares:

I can't believe he turned down Cyborg and Star Wars for this.

He turned down Cyborg??! Wow....He was my top pick for John Stewart/Cyborg

Oh god, that made me laugh way more than it should have.

..........

F%ck.

Yeah this is going to suck. I was planning on seeing it the day it came out but now... I'm having difficulties deciding if I should even see it at all...

My God.

This looks worse than the original...

They must like turning FF movies into train wrecks.

I am all for giving movie a try before judging but it doesnt seem very hopeful at this point.

and Miles.

i'm still gonna gives it a shot. i hope its better than Asm 2.

The original isn't looking too bad now that I've read this ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

My hopes let down when I heard about the Dr.Doom(I wish it a very small part of his origin story),but I'm willing to see the movie.

The first Marvel superhero team and one of the most popular supervillains of all time being run into the ground like some kind of joke. Really quite sad.

@captainmarvel4ever: ...really? He turned down STAR WARS AND CYBORG? :(

Oh well.

@thatguywithheadphones: True.

This will be the first Marvel/DC movie in years that I won't be seeing in theaters.

Ah geez, my sides are killing me.

@squares:

How do you kill that which has no life?

This. But I'm still gonna see it, so I'll be able to bitch about it.

I stupidly forgot where I'm reading this and immediately associated FF with Final Fantasy. I want my FF7 HD remake!

But yeah, this movie looks terrible.

you answered your own question... no edit: How can you have faith knowing that?

@squares:

This is just perfect...

@captainmarvel4ever: HE TURNED DOWN STAR WARS!!!?

@immovableray: The reading comprehension on this thread is almost as bad as my spelling. The actor did not say that Doom would be a blogger.

“He’s Victor Domashev, not Victor Von Doom, in our story,” Toby Kebbell, who will star as the Doctor, said in a recent interview on Collider. “And I’m sure I’ll be sent to jail for telling you that. The Doom in ours—I’m a programmer. Very antisocial programmer. And on blogging sites I’m ‘Doom.’”

Blogging sites named the person Victor Domashev Doom when they talk about him. Doom's not going to be some blogger but someone that people on the world wide web fear, hence the name "Doom".

Has OP been drinking?

I'd rather have a Movie by Michael Bay, starring Jaden Smith and Megan Fox.
