After reading a bunch of FF comics recently, I have a thing for the Invisible woman. I have to see it.

Jessica Alba being in the movie sells it for me immediately. The movie could be terrible and my jaw would still be on the floor the whole time.

This movie has a mix of excellent TV and screen actors (Michael Chiklis, Julian McMahon, Jessica Alba) and good unknowns. It looks to be very similar to and at least as good as the first X-men movie.

You may be be right! I don't like Doctor Doom as the villain and think the actor playing Johnny Storm (Human Torch) looks too old for the part and doesn't even have blonde hair like the matchstick.

The Thing looks pretty good. I'm a little worried about the Invisible Woman. Halle Berry looked good as Storm but she was the weakest character in the two X-Men movies. Maybe I shouldn't be worried. Mystique was played by hottie Rebecca Romijn-Stamos with not much acting ability but was great in the films. Halle Berry has acting talent but it didn't show in X-men. She's on record as more or less stating that the role was beneath her.

I remembered hearing earlier that the two directors being considered were Sean Astin(he's directed some independent stuff), who would bring along with him Orlando Bloom as the Human Torch OR Stephen Soderberg, bringing along George Clooney as Mr. Fantastic. I think either one of those would have been better choices than what they went with.

Hmmm, I could almost picture Clooney as Mr Fantastic. That would of been neat.
