    I actually really enjoyed the original. There was a different angle on heroism in it and it showed downsides to being super right alongside the positives. The infighting also came across as very believable and motivated.

    I remember effects getting a bad rap in it, but it never bothered me.

      Kind of like Spider-Man, everyone was essentially an extreme version of their best known personality traits. Very one-dimensional, but otherwise really good.

      The new one is a lot more subtle about it, which I appreciate. But that’s not how superhero movies were back then.

    I liked 2005 F4. Jessica Alba, Captain America, and Michael Chiklis were all awesome. I don’t remember who was Reed but he must have been forgettable.
