Over the course of three decades, The Fantastic Four were adapted to screen in three entirely different iterations, all of which failed at some level or another to launch Marvel's First Family into comparable cultural relevance like their peers Spider-Man or the X-Men. To Logan and Andy, that sounds like a series of NOT-SO-FANTASTIC FIRST STEPS!
In time with the fourth attempt to get the characters right, Marvel Studios' The Fantastic Four: First Steps, the boys venture into space to learn the secrets of the family's three previous swings. This trilogy includes the Roger Corman-produced (and never officially released) 1994 film The Fantastic Four, Tim Story's Fantastic Four from 2005, and Josh Trank's infamous 2015 adaptation, Fantastic Four (a.k.a. "Fant4stic").
Why was the Corman film never released? Didn't the 2005 film get a sequel? And how could any adaptation possibly ruin Thing's iconic catchphrase? Find out when Logan screams, "It's clobberin' time!" on this fantastic new episode of ODD TRILOGIES!
