Ok, you know what? I like The Fantastic Four. I even have it on DVD. And I've watched it in Spanish. I just found out they're making a second one, and I'll go see it and probably like that one too.
What annoys me is not that people think it's not a good movie, because really, it's not, but that they can't like it just the same.
Yes, ok, sometimes I want to go see a movie, and have to think, and have to wonder who's really the good guy, and talk about it ad naseum afterwards, and appreciate the plot and like the character development and all that jazz.
But sometimes you just want to watch hot people in spandex blow shit up while delivering bad dialogue. (Which you still find funny.) You want clearly defined good and evil. You don't care that it's predicatable or that the bad guy's name could not get any cheesier if they tried. (It's Victor Von Doom. I mean, come on.)
You just want to be entertained. No every movie can be an intellectual work of art, nor would you want them all to be. Sometimes your brain just needs a rest.
