Any comic book fans out there? If you are, you know the Fantastic Four. They launcehed the Marvel Age of comics in 1961. As you know, they new movie will be taking some serious liberties with the FF. The cast did an interview with an Atlanta DJ and were asked some questions..........it went down hill from there.
I had no problem with the question or how it was asked........
It's funny how this PC society tries to belittle the people who ask the obvious questions on this........A 50 year-old comic book brother and sister are all of a sudden "different races" and you cant ask WHY?? "It's just a movie" is what this guy says....."Oh he's JUST a radio DJ", as if all of those "types" have no brains.....and THEN the chick on the right puts down the stererotypical "southerner" jab. People who dont have logical answers for obvious discrepancies ALWAYS resort to name calling. Yes......the DJ asked a great question. Was there an adoption? There had to be either that of a marriage between Sue's white mom and Johnny's black dad......me and my black wife just dont pop out a white child. And now we cant even ask that question? Even fiction should have a logical back story.
I heard about this. The interview was stupid, just like that Paper Towns one. As for the changes, For one, the Fantastic Four is more following the Ultimate Fantastic Four than the 616 Fantastic Four. There's differences right there with the Negative Zone (The N-Zone) causing the powers rather than cosmic radiation. The change in race was meh to me, I personally rather go full-bore with a black Sue Storm if they wanted to change the Storm family's race.

Even the Ultimate version siblings were of the same race....... I'm cool with the N-Zone twist.
I agree that they should have gone all out and made Sue black too. But there's a certain amount of suspension of belief that all movies of this type will get. But simple things of biology should be explained. These are not NEW characters. That have a long rich history. I mean come on......what if a caucasian Thomas and Martha Wayne had a black son named Bruce? Dont the fans have a right to ask if he's adopted?
I'm more concerned with The Thing's voice than I am with the ethnicity of any CBM character we've seen so far. They would have been better off making Ben Grimm sound like Barney (the dinosaur, not Fred Flintstone's buddy).
I guess I'm the one to go against the grain here. I don't care about race but I do care about making said comic book movie as close to the comic as possible. Nick Fury did become black at some point in the comic if I remember right so I am OK with them making him black in the movies. Personally I don't see a problem with the D.J asking a obvious question, I'm sure more then one person has asked how this going to be believable. The movie will more then likely do good as I don't care for it I liked the first two movies.
I don't see anyone in the trailers who can make this movie worth watching. Like the new upcoming Spiderman movie for me it's going to be lame.

The only known details for MCU's Spiderman is that is a Sony Picture, it is coming out in July 2017, the movie is in the MCU, the writers are the ones from Vacation and the guy playing Spiderman is a young kid, and Marisa Tomei playing Aunt May. THERE ARE NO OTHER CONFIRMED DETAILS ABOUT THE MOVIE AND YOU ARE WRITING IT OFF?
I don't care if the Storms are black. Marvel turning Nick Fury into Samuel L. Jackson was one of the best things they've done in the past 15 years.
It was the ultimate version.......Not really and explanation needed
