I’m making this post from the parking lot of Fantastic Four: First Steps. It was actually pretty good! The characters were done well, they skipped the redundant origin story, and the world had a consistent aesthetic with great props. It was refreshing to hear a Marvel movie with an original soundtrack and score that fit the specific feel of the movie instead of generic action hero tones. Really impressed with how they handled Galactus, a planet sized threat, without making the movie too goofy. Actually, it was exactly goofy enough when it needed to be.
