I think it's so funny how often people making these FF movies want a 60s vibe/setting, and now it looks like we might actually get it (even Pedro Pascal's post about his casting uses some Beatles music)
@@pious83It is very likely though. They hired Matt Shakman, who is a huge sitcom nerd, just look at his work on WandaVision or Monarch The Legacy of Monsters.
18:04 I really love the idea of a F4 movie poster being a recreation of the first issue cover. If Marvel actually did that, that will actually blow fans' minds!
Fun fact about Chris Columbus, he's the executive producer of Robert Eggers first 2 films (the VVitch and the lighthouse) and is producing eggers 4th film Nosferatu.
This is another fascinating story documented here, but one thing in particular that I loved is how Owen spoke positively on Tim Story’s Fantastic 4 films and acknowledged not just how they managed to actually get many things right about the characters, but also how their success proved after a decades long journey that these characters could work beyond the comic pages. It’s really easy to rip apart movies online and people have been doing it for as long as there’s been a World Wide Web, so it’s always nice to see a more measured, understanding perspective. Job well done Owen!
This was so interesting to watch. Love the detail you put in, and I would love to have seen those different versions of the scripts come to life as those sound more in line with the Fantastic 4. I did enjoy the two F4 movies by Tim Story, but the biggest issue based on everything I heard is Fox didn't want to go big. They went cheap, but the Fantastic 4 have been big, bold, ambitious, something larger than life, so going for cheap didn't do the characters justice. With the announcement of the new Fantastic 4 movie and cast, I really hope they make the movie as big, bold, and ambitious as possible, but without losing the heart of the team, which is family. I have faith in it though. As always, great work Owen! Love your work!
The best Fantastic Four has always been about the family drama, with a *huge* dose of overblown retro-futuristic science fiction. I hope the MCU gets it right. This was really interesting; thank you, Owen!
Definitely could have been an interesting movie, it seem to have a lot of potential. I just hope the new Maureen is very good and has a cool 60 style like X-Men first class

Right on time Owen lol It's interesting seeing the ideas, and those VERY 90's designs, but glad the Tim Story movies at least turned into what it did... until Trank's version, and now finally, Marvel Studios FF, which will be one by default.
@@pious83 No. I included that one in my count. It's the fourth. The unofficial cash grab and the two 20th Century Fox attempts, and now the new Disney Marvel studios one.
I really enjoyed this video, but the title kinda feels like clickbait. The section of the video about Columbus is the shortest and, on the whole, the video is more about the overall development of what became the first Fox FF movie
wow.... that casting suggestions by Douglas Petrie sound AWESOME...almost pitch perfect..!!! Alexis Denisof as Reed (he would eventually ended up playing 'The Other", Thanos' right hand man, in both The Avengers and Guardians of the Galaxy, where his character was killed off). He DID look closer to Reed than Pedro. Charlize Theron...SPOT ON! Paul Walker...I could picture him doing what Evans did in the 2005 movie. John C. Reilly as BEN..?! YESSS...!!!!
This thing was leaked much earlier then being on TH-cam. It was readily available on bootleg VHS being sold at comic book conventions (and I'm sure other places that sold bootleg movies). I bought a copy as early as mid 1996 or thereabouts. The movie I think was leaked from someone within if I'm not mistaken. But ya it wasn't long before bootlegs of the movie was floating around.
I also remember seeing in Alien 3 in the theater and them showing a Captain America teaser that was just his shield on a black background with the words "Coming to theaters next summer" Which Never Happened.
Awesome video analysis. I definitely want to find the time myself to look up the original 94 version someday. I have seen the documentary but I know I really need to experience the actual movie itself. This history is totally fascinating. The fantastic four will forever be one of my favorite comic book teams ever and I do look forward to the day when they have their own truly incredible movie. The 2005 film is definitely not terrible and I enjoy it to a certain extent but it will forever be short of the mark in some ways. Excellent job on this retrospective! Your channel is always awesome!
I would not be surprised if the plot to the upcoming MCU FF film is close to this (the idyllic parallel-timeline-inspired 60s world and some sort of event that transports them to the modern-day MCU).
i think given a good understanding and passion, chris would’ve had an excellent tone and feel for the characters, and maybe the world if he acknowledged weirdness enough.
I bought a VHS copy of Cormans F4 from a comic shop in 2005 or 2006. It was like owning something from an alternate earth. There was a lot wrong with it , But way more of it was spot on. In my opinion that's the Best version of Doom I've ever seen in a movie.
You forgot to mention that Chris Columbus also directed and launched the first two Harry Potter films as well and that Fantastic Four will actually see another film in their MCU debut in 2025.
Nowadays I'm mostly a trade buyer, but I do collect singles for certain books. I've bought every issue of the new Ultimate Marvel comics, as well as Fall of X.
We almost had the most perfect cast if Doug had most of his options. If Alexis Denisolf, Charlize Theron, Paul Walker and Michael Chiklis (sorry no to Doug's pick) would have been awesome.
"the script was seemingly receaved well by those in Fox." Yeah, but as we know, Fox (and still Sony) can't stick to a decision to save their budget or company.
Honestly even though the 1994 movie is cheap and schlocky I honestly respect it for it’s honest attempt to recreate the original 60s comics especially with the F4 costumes, The Thing and Doctor Doom their designs are completely faithful to the source material
I've always had a soft spot for the FF ( they're the family of Marvel comics ) have a very GOOD rogue's gallery too. More adventurers than a super-hero team ( at least that's how I see them ) Byrne's run of the FF was very GOOD,I still remember the crudely drawn FF-vs-Gladiator issue by Byrne,it had terrible art.
Nooo Michael Chabon the creator of Star Trek Picard and who also helped on Raimi's Spider-man2! This is heartbreaking. Kevin Feige there's still time to make this, just set it in the multiverse!
Funny that all of those pitches seemed better films than Tim Story's or Josh Trank's. Hopefully fifth time will be the charm for the FF on the big screen. Hopefully, Doom won't be part of the crew this time either. He really shouldn't be.
And I always thought the Tim story movies were good and enjoyable. Ya they weren't perfect but they were fun. I have both on blu-ray and I'll watch them regularly. Fan4atick on the other hand...I wouldn't have minded if they tried to do the same thing they did with the 90s FF (not release it, destroy all copies possible, etc...)
They failed the timelines, they never fully made the real fantastic 4!. I don't they even fully completed the X-men, the closest to actually seeing a real X-men movie was X-men 2 & the reboot X-men First Class, what destroyed all of these potentially comic book movies were the big hats. They never let the creatives do their thing. Too many hands in the cookie jar!.. It happens all the time, over and over again.
Please read this!!!This FF film is meant for failure. The actors they need to make it a success are as follow-Reed Richards by John Strazynski, Sue Storm by Charlize Theron, Jonny Storm by Glen Powell and Ben Grimm by Andrew Dice Clay. The Silver Surfer played by Keanu Reeves and Galactus played by...wait for it...Mel Gibson.(the man some people like to hate)...and directed by James Cameron!!(although highly unlikely)!!...or a director as successful! As for supporting characters- Mike Colter as T'Challa, the Black Panther, Mark Strong as Dr. Doom and Dwayne Jonson as Namor, the Sub-Mariner, Prince of Atlantis. And you can have the She Hulk (but playing it straight...without the breaking the third wall concept..and working side by side with Ben Grimm as her mentor))

Fun fact about Chris Columbus, he's the executive producer of Robert Eggers first 2 films (the VVitch and the lighthouse) and is producing eggers 4th film Nosferatu.
He's also gave us the first two Harry Potter fans that are beloved to this day and the first Percy Jackson movie that is hated to this day
@@OvertheHedge06And unfortunately, Pixels.
It’s sad he’s not actually directing any movies like he did in the past.
With all the films that do get made, tge behind the scenes story of unmade flms never stops being fascinated
My favourite portrayal of the Ben Grimm was played by Tobias Funke.
in the Roger Corman Thing suit too
😂
I had no idea this film (almost) existed! Just another reason why Owen is the best he is at what he does.

That sudden Nando voice-over caught me completely off-guard.
Discovers the Americas and writes comics. What a legend.
That timing is poetic
Dude you've been on a roll lately. Hickman made me love the FF, I pray for a good movie.
Love that you’re finally getting ad sponsors!! It gives me hope for the future of comic book TH-cam
Dennis Quaid and Meg Ryan would have been fire as Reed and Sue
The costumes at 1:27 look so spiritually like the Burton's Superman Lives costume that it could only come from the mid-to-late 90s.

What the hell is with the obsession with making Doom part of the space ship crew? It's not a great idea
Hollywood loves tying in villains to heroe's origins to make thing 'simple', but Doom as another astronaut is definitely a dumb idea
Was thinking the same thing after every revision of the script hahaha

Great video
my favorite version is the one from Arrested Development. Did Tobias ever get his rocks off???
I bought a VHS copy of Cormans F4 from a comic shop in 2005 or 2006.
It was like owning something from an alternate earth.
There was a lot wrong with it ,
But way more of it was spot on.
In my opinion that's the Best version of Doom I've ever seen in a movie.
Interesting, great video!
Glad you think so!
For the record, I do think Chris Columbus could be a good candidate to direct a superhero movie
You forgot to mention that Chris Columbus also directed and launched the first two Harry Potter films as well and that Fantastic Four will actually see another film in their MCU debut in 2025.
Would love to have seen Quaid and Ryan in the film. Chabon's script outline sounds somewhat like the direction the new film is heading in.
Hey Owen! Love your channel! I’ve always meant to ask you… do you collect single issues or graphic novels?
Nowadays I'm mostly a trade buyer, but I do collect singles for certain books. I've bought every issue of the new Ultimate Marvel comics, as well as Fall of X.
We need to see the alternate universe where they released that movie. What is happening there? Is there a paradise or a living hell in that universe?
Honestly that Thing doesn't look all that bad in the original.
7:42 there is no such video or link?
GodzillaMendoza's video should be up asap, as far as I know. Once he posts it, it'll be linked in the description and in a card during the video!

Wait....what did you just say?
Can I read this script? It sounds... fantastic!
I don't know if I can link them, but if you Google you should be able to find all the scripts I talk about in the video!
I hope the new fantastic four movies are great man
Jason Brant just reviewed the I’ll fated early 90s film
7:43 So did that video get delayed or something? Lol
I think so. I reached out to GodzillaMendoza over the weekend but I'm not sure when his video will be out. Once it is, I'll link it in the video!
It looks like elements of Francis' screenplay are gonna be adapted exactly
Ooooh Reed’s cast tho! Not sure how I feel about Thing tho
Has this film been leaked anywhere?
please make a video on Chris Claremont's run on X-Men
20:25
Man, I wonder why he mentioned the Spider-Man and Batmab directors buy not the X-Men director
France’s script didn’t sound too bad!! I would have loved to see that!

Honestly?
If the MCU can't adapt the Fantastic Four right then I will accept these characters are just unadaptable.
MCU can't be trusted to do anything right with any characters right now. Maybe 10 years ago, but not now.
Unpopular opinion but the 2005 film is iconic
Can you make more what could have been marvel and dc content
😮 imagine if Warner had snatched up the Fantastic Four rights!
they're gonna retry smth similar to the Beetles inspired idea w/ the movie that'll be coming out on 2025
I mean Paul Walker technically did get to be The Human Torch after all…
I've always had a soft spot for the FF ( they're the family of Marvel comics ) have a very GOOD rogue's gallery too. More adventurers than a super-hero team ( at least that's how I see them ) Byrne's run of the FF was very GOOD,I still remember the crudely drawn FF-vs-Gladiator issue by Byrne,it had terrible art.

if you want a good F4 film I feel like the Fantastic needs to be an animated feature
Nooo Michael Chabon the creator of Star Trek Picard and who also helped on Raimi's Spider-man2! This is heartbreaking. Kevin Feige there's still time to make this, just set it in the multiverse!
Funny that all of those pitches seemed better films than Tim Story's or Josh Trank's. Hopefully fifth time will be the charm for the FF on the big screen. Hopefully, Doom won't be part of the crew this time either. He really shouldn't be.
Avi Arad is always involved in something marvel related flopping/ having weird restrictions huh
Glad we didn't get the Peter Segal version
Not untold when fans read comics
The only Chris Columbus we like.

As for supporting characters- Mike Colter as T'Challa, the Black Panther, Mark Strong as Dr. Doom and Dwayne Jonson as Namor, the Sub-Mariner, Prince of Atlantis. And you can have the She Hulk (but playing it straight...without the breaking the third wall concept..and working side by side with Ben Grimm as her mentor))
I cant watch the FF movies. Cant stand Evans as the Human Torch.
I think Tim Story got the essence of Fantastic Four but the script didn’t have them do much superhero stuff (at least first movie). It was more corny
Sadly FF doesn’t work on film. Stretching looks silly and I fear the MCU will make another turkey. It times to just move on
Wrong
