      Just noticed the little, teeny, tiny Surfer standing under his chin.

      Haven't been to a theater since Indiana Jones and The Crystal Skull. How much does movie popcorn set you back these days? With or without the cool buckets?

        I want to like this, I really do--because I love the mise en scene and advocated for a retro reboot years ago. That looks great.

        But IMO some casting and costume elements are a bit off. Not impressed with the Thing at all--disappointed actually.

        I will say, though I've never liked the blue/white Byrne FF costumes, they make more sense here and if (when) the team is pulled into the modern DCU, we may see the classic colors.

        Even so, this is the most interested I've been in a comic movie since Ant Man 1.
        WANTED: Dick Grayson SI trousers; gray AJ Mustang horse; vintage RC Batman (Bruce Wayne) head; minty Wolfman tights; mint Black Knight sword; minty Launcelot boots; Lion Rock (pale) Dracula & Mummy heads; Lion Rock Franky squared boots; Wayne Foundation blue furniture; Flash Gordon/Ming (10") unbroken holsters; CHiPs gloved arms; POTA T2 tan body; CTVT/vintage Friar Tuck robes, BBP TZ Burgess Meredith glasses.

          the platform they are standing on at the 1:25 mark is very similar to the Beatles stage on the Ed Sullivan show. nice little 60's nod

            Maybe a callback to Dr. Strange's "Didn't you guys chart in the 60s?" quip in Multiverse of Madness too.

              They seemed to be getting more right than wrong here and it's definitely a sincere approach, I'm down.

                Too bad Norrin Radd won't be in it. Big mistake, in my opinion.

                  I'm digging the marketing on this. If the movie is half as good, we're golden.

                    Is that real cards that come with real gum? I haven't seen that kind of thing for decades.

                      No it's a series of promo posters that look like gum cards. I thought it was a clever tie-in to the retro-future 60s aeshtetic.

                        Apparently as shown in the "NU-Avengers" flick, we see a rocket zooming in.



                        What if that rocket is leaving a DYING Universe and the KILLER of that Universe is coming. And guess who decides to tackle that menace? A certain Dictator?



                        Decide for yourselves.
