10 Fool-Proof Ways To Save The Fantastic Four Franchise
7. Find A Better Villain
In lieu of an improved Doom, Fantastic Fours sequel would need a much better villain than the first film had. In order to cleanse our pallets and open us up to the difficult-to-swallow-at-this-stage concept of a decent Fantastic Four film, the next baddie would have to be truly brilliant. The obvious choice would be Galactus, the globe-gobbling godlike being who has plagued the comic book Fantastic Four since 1966. Hes one of the biggest villains in Marvel Comics history, in terms of actual size and genuine threat (anyone who eats planets is a pretty serious adversary, after all). Bringing in a baddie this powerful could help force the franchise forward. With an added sense of apocalyptic scale there would be a huge change of focus, plenty of opportunities for action scenes and a big enough distraction to erase any lingering memories of the previous film.
