Thread 149879037

Was it really that bad of a casting?

>>149879037 (OP)
So bad it sank the movie's box office and will now blight whatever future the MCU has left

I wouldn't know, that barely had him do anything besides get scolded by his wife for being concerned about the world possibly ending.

>>149879037 (OP)
yes

I have an anxiety disorder that makes me rape women

This video single-handedly destroyed his career.

>>149879047
>>149879059
What the fuck was he thinking?

>>149879062
Maybe he thought it looked like a Popsicle

>>149879062
He couldn't stop being a massive faggot

I've enjoyed him in things but there was no point in casting him if he was just going to act mildly nervous for the whole movie.

Mr. Fagtastic

>People are insecure
I thought playing pretend gay bullshit was a sign of a sexually confident straight man. Prince etc.

>>149879092
Please understand he has anxiety

>>149879207
I get that but the scene where he starts face-fucking Herbie during an anxiety attack was really offputting. I thought this was a family film

He could be pretty good as Reed but there wasn't much for him to work with:
>Should have shaved
>Should have kept the transatlantic accent that Marvel forbade
>Keep the intro where he leads the team against Red Ghost
>Should've kept the backtory that Reed and Ben fought in WW2

>>149879037 (OP)
He just doesn't look intelligent enough. It's not his fault, but some actors have that giga-nerd face, and he doesn't

>>149879037 (OP)
Disastrous. They'll recast him as soon as Secret Wars is over.

>I thought this was a family film

That's why he made Franklin watch.

>>149879037 (OP)
Weakest of all the Reeds we've seen in film, I'm including the 94 one here.

>>149881034
what's wrong with the 94 one? I found him better than the '05 one

>>149879037 (OP)
It's perfect.
Qiqes (and their golems) are hating on him because he talked about Palestine genocide.

>>149879037 (OP)
For whatever godforsaken reason they didn't tell him to hide his accent so Reed Richards is this movie is inexplicably Hispanic

>>149881097
Nothing wrong, I'm just mentioning for anyone who doesn't know about its casting or thinks they don't count. It's pretty commonly agreed though that it appeared to be a strong effort to adapt the comic tone, especially in hindsight.

Why not? It's a pretty alright movie

>>149879037 (OP)
No conozco a una sola persona que le agrade el imbecil ese que pusieron como Mr. Fantastic.

>Palestine genocide
No such thing. They've been claiming that BS for half a century or more. All that's happening now is a war.

Marvel Studios literally told him to do this. He wanted to do a trans-atlantic accent for Reed but was told to use his regular voice.

You can say whatever you want about Pascal but a significant amount of the bad choices made with Reed in this film even beyond his casting are Disney's fault not his.

>He wanted to do a trans-atlantic accent
man now i'm curious how that would've sounded.
