Laaammeee. Just put it in the same universe.

Fans complain too much about canon not adding up. If it’s a 60’s period piece it wouldn’t work in the main universe.

Whatever. Don’t make it a 60s piece then. All the hero’s should be in the same universe. X men, FF, whomever they add in the future. You don’t need to explain everything or relate it all back to infinity war

Why not? Just have it as historical (you can always add in a mind wipe or some **** at the end)

I think Ridley Scott is pushing 90.

Clint Eastwood is in his 90s. It's amazing these guys still have the mental and physical stamina to direct million-dollar films.

You could just stop after "Fans complain too much".

I’ve been critical of all the shoehorning of multiverse stuff. This doesn’t feel the same as what we have seen up to now. Forced cameos to generate audience cheers like in No Way Home or Deadpool 3.

I see this as a logical way to introduce the FF as an established team with history without disrupting the current MCU continuity. Saying this as someone who always points out that continuity isn’t nearly as important as fans claim it is.

Plus I like the unique look and feel they are going for.

Galactus is going to beat F4 at the end of this movie. Subsequently, turning attention to our world ie current universe. F4 defeat will trigger a distress call to present day Marvel team setting up the next few movies and team ups.

I think there's definitely room for a return of free-standing superhero movies. The Batman movies with Robert Pattinson don't tie in with any of the DCU and they have been very well received. Why not the same for F4?

Speaking of Robert Pattinson: I just became aware of this movie, releasing in March:

The money machine will take over and cameos and team ups will be demanded. As mentioned above it’s likely already planned out for years.

That actually looks... good?
Usually, I think his movies don't.

TeneT was amazing!

TeneT was amazing!

I loved his take on Christopher Hitchens in Tenet.

Yeah, I'm just being "that guy." I realize that the formula is pretty much set in stone.

Oh f-uck off. F-ck all the way off.
