I know there's an animated adaptation of that book - which I haven't seen - but if anyone in DC movie-land ever gets the idea to make a live-action "retro" JLA film using the same source, I guess the odds of a 60's jet-age Fantastic Four movie would be a no go.Summary: The Fantastic Four 1978 Complete. I remember thinking how compelling it would've been if he'd used that whole milieu for a Fantastic Four mini-series (or whatever they're called) instead of the JLA. I haven't been a big comics reader in a couple of decades, or a DC fan in general, but one that quite randomly caught my eye (in trade form) in recent years and really impressed was Darwyn Cooke's NEW FRONTIER. Sue Storm in a miniskirt costume with high white boots, sort of Star Trekkish. Mad Men with Kirby dots and big Kirby machines rendered with modern special effects. Rockets flying through the air to wheel-shaped space stations. The early space age was a neat, forward-thinking time, and there hasn't been a lot of modern sf set in that era. I think most have put out the Trank version from their minds though and the others are quite old by now so they could possibly get away with doing it once more. The only issue would be doing the origin yet again I agree but I think you'd almost have to for a period set story. I know that's been done before with Captain America but I wouldn't have a problem if they used a similar angle. I feel like they're too of that time to be modernized without somehow crossing dimensions into the modern era personally. They could be part of some SHIELD experiment or whatever. Have it set in the sixties or so when the space race was hot. Fox has shown repeatedly they don't want to spend money on this franchise.I think a period piece could work. Planet-wide disasters like Galactus bringing in all of the FF's cosmic characters ups the budget considerably. The problem for FF has always been that most of its best storylines would cost a fortune to film. I've been surprised they haven't made an animated Fantastic Four film to keep the rights going. Well if budget is an issue, just make Galactus into a cloud, what could go wrong? Or just make a deal with Marvel and justify a higher budget. Also the FF shows up in The Avengers and Spider-Man cartoons. Bonus Features: Theatrical Feature Powering Up: Superpowers of the Fantastic Four The Quantum Gates.
Fox has shown repeatedly they don't want to spend money on this franchise.Perhaps they don't have the animation rights? I don't think the last animated series was done by them and that was right before the second movie. FANTASTIC ), Sue Storm ( INVISIBLE WOMAN ), Johnny Storm ( THE HUMAN TORCH ) and Ben Grimm ( THE THING ) must harness their incredible new powers and work together to save Earth from a former friend turned enemy, the infamous DR.
Before Fantastic Four began filming, 20th Century Fox announced plans for a sequel with a scheduled release date of July 14, 2017. As of December 2018, the film had grossed 13.4 million on home video. Fox needs to jump to the middle of their superhero careers with maybe a recap of the origin in the opening credits. As of February 2016, Fantastic Four had sold nearly 400,000 DVD copies and 350,000 Blu-ray copies. They definitely don't need another origin movie. I don't think a period piece would work at all outside of one of the world wars.
