I'm not even the biggest Fantastic Four fan in the world, but I seem to be more of a fan than Disney are and that Valentine's Day cast reveal legit annoyed the hell out of me. Pedro Pascal as Mr. Fantastic? Really? The FUCK! So much for ANY hopes of this movie not being a steaming pile of shit that desecrates and disrespects the characters and lore! Disney truly has NO FUCKING IDEA what they are doing! This is extra annoying as there's literally never been a single good Fantastic Four movie not made by Pixar, and the curse of the FF is still unbroken.
There is literally NO fucking chance for this movie to be good when you hire the most Trump Derangement Syndrome retard in all of Hollywood to play Mr. Fantastic, the Smartest Man in the Marvel Universe. This is Batfleck, all over again; miscasting the Flavor of the Month who won't even still be popular by the time the movie comes out. I can't see what anyone sees in Pedro Pascal. He's a huge asshole in real life, an absolute idiot, and he can't act too well, either.
I'm not even necessarily saying they had to bring back John Krasinski as Reed Richards either; I get why he wouldn't want to come back to Marvel at this point and why his wife wouldn't want to be Sue Storm; Emily Blunt hates superhero movies. But this?! Vanessa Kirby's not a bad look for Sue, but SHE CAN'T ACT. I didn't think you could get a cast this shitty with only two race swaps like this. They didn't even go as wild with the race/gender swaps by making The Thing a trans allegory and making them "Miss Thing" so she can complain about "literally being objectified" into a rock golem. And even without all of THAT, they still Amber Hearded the bed with this fucking AWFUL cast! They just couldn't fucking resist not having a white guy in the lead role of a "modern audiences" movie, could they?
My interest in this movie is completely DOA and I'm convinced we'll literally never get a good Fantastic Four movie now with one of the dumbest people in Hollywood playing the "world's smartest man." He doesn't even look the part! Like, at all! I also noticed how they uglified and "diversified" the X-Men 97 cast as well, especially butchering my girl Storm and making her look "male-gaze-proof!"
I'm so done with having anymore faith in Marvel! I actively want them to fail now. They'll NEVER learn their lesson! I'm not even going to see Deadpool 3 after this shitshow FF cast. They might as well have cast Melissa McCarthy as Mr. Fantastic, Viola Davis as Sue Storm and made them an interracial half trans couple. That's how shitty it is to cast fucking PEDRO PASCAL as the fucking SMARTEST MAN IN MARVEL! He reminds me of Fred from that shitty Mindy Kaling version of Velma who's literally too stupid to cut his own food or wipe his behind, thrown in with some Brendan Schab where he pisses in sinks because he's too retarded or lazy to use a toilet. That's who Pedro Pascal is.
Deadpool and Wolverine is very likely going to be horrendous after seeing this and I'm sure Iger and Feige fucked up all plans Ryan Reynolds probably had to save the MCU, as well. I'm completely done with having ANYMORE faith in Marvel.
