13. Victor Von Doom Character Changes - Fantastic Four
The Moment: Classic comic villain Victor von Doom has been given a modern makeover for the upcoming reboot, renamed as Victor Domashev (Toby Kebbell), while his Dr. Doom alias has been re-fashioned as merely "Doom", a screen name for his blogging and hacking antics. Why It's Going To Suck: Because it's a totally unnecessary adjustment to the character which reeks of a lame attempt to make the movie seem more "current" and up to date. Extra hatred if the final movie is adorned with countless social media references. ...And The Rest Of The Movie?: The jury's out on this one. Josh Trank is a promising talent and the cast is certainly impressive, but there just doesn't seem to be that much demand for a second take on these characters so soon.
