JoBlo.com is reporting that Fox is planning on rebooting the Fantastic Four franchise after two critically loathed installments.Despite the popularity of the source material and the big name stars in the films (Jessica Alba, Chris Evans), Fox feels the need to dump everything about the previous entries and start anew with a new cast, new director, new story, and pretty much everything else.
According to JoBlo, they hope to make it more in line with the recent successes of pictures like Iron Man and The Dark Knight.
Personally, I didn't think the first two movies were all that bad. They weren't great, but I enjoyed them on a very basic level. I don't really know how to feel about a reboot because I don't feel it is needed. However, the recent Incredible Hulk reboot was leaps and bounds above Ang Lee's Hulk atrocity, so who knows? Maybe a reboot could put some life into the franchise.
