    It’s a shame Marvel doesn’t feel confident in their current stable so they look to big names as tent poles to hold up the IP. But it worked for Mario so Hollywood executives are going to do what executives do best: steal from others.

    This would have been a good chance to get someone young to build the franchise on but Fant4stic ruined that idea, ignoring all the drama behind the movie. And using an unknown is out because the F4 before that didn’t work with an unknown.

    It seems the only decision which feels new is the same old “get a big name” idea. Let’s see how it goes. Mario haters are weirdly silent now that the Pratt hate proved unjustified. (Or maybe the hate forces voice effects to be applied to hide his voice?) Marvel may have a Reed which makes us pay more attention.
