Hello and welcome to the Enchanted Ears Podcast, where we discuss anything and everything Disney.
This week, Disney announced some more changes for Hollywood Studios. Plus Angela gets way too excited for popcorn buckets.
Today, we’re taking a look back at one of the biggest misfires in movie history - the 2015 version of Fantastic Four.
What seemed like a promising movie, with a solid cast and rising director, ultimately failed to live up to even the lowest expectations.
Critics hated it, fans hated it, no one went to see it.
But we wanted to know - was it really that bad?
So we come to you this week, having watched it, with the details behind its demise and whether the Fantastic Four is worth your time.
Submit a question/topic for us to discuss on a future episode.
