Fantastic Four New Trailer Breakdown: 25 Things You Need To See

5. €œYou Guys Sure You're In The Best Shape?€

That's pretty much every angle of the origin story covered: everyone who's involved, who's funding it, what happens afterwards. But how about the way that it goes wrong? It could just be that the jaunt to the N-Zone goes bad because Reed made some mistake with his calculations, in a classic arrogant scientist-goes-wrong upset. It could be that the whole endeavour gets sabotaged. Or it could be that they do it whilst drunk. There's another small, funny bit of character work in this trailer with Michael B Jordan as Johnny and Toby Kebbell as Victor Domashev, where Miles Teller's Reed asks if they're €œin the best shape€ whilst dressed in the suits they were in the N-Zone. They shrug €œyeah€, but look like they're smashed. So does it go wrong thanks to the youthful arrogance (and lack of motor skills) that comes with being off your face?
