MCU Fantastic Four: 10 Lessons Disney Need To Learn From Fant4stic

Fant4stic's choices certainly could've made its CGI unique, such as the mechanical and scrappily put together uniforms, the realistic rocks that assembled The Things body, and alien uninhabited worlds by neither creatures or sun.

Yet what was delivered in the film was a fear of truly realising those aspects, attributable to the already high production costs.

Richard's uniform stretched and waded in whatever way it needed to, ignoring the metallic wires and braces that ran over the fabric. It would've been cool to see it limit him, like how Christopher Nolan's Dark Knight acknowledged and then improved its batsuit so Bruce could turn more freely, all while doing it narratively.

Anything got to do with alien landscape and the rockery of The Thing was lit dimly. This didn't allow us to see the texturing of the objects, which would've made it more believable. Even if the studio avoided this to cut costs, it came across uninspired visually, and at worst, hard to read what was happening.

In the MCU's Fantastic Four the CGI should be like the family itself - fantastical.

There needs to be a vibrancy, a sense of realism, and how it will be perceived by an unaware audience.

This would recapture the comic-book's intrigue.
