Title: fantastic bore BOMBS at box office

QuoteThe final fate of Fox's new "Fantastic Four" is worse than most people expected. Many Hollywood trades are reporting a second-place finish for the Josh Trank action movie, behind a strong performing second week for "Mission Impossible Rogue Nation."

The Hollywood Reporter has the initial estimate for "Fantastic Four's" weekend take at $26.2 million -- well behind the initial $40 million predictions and even behind the adjusted $30 million figure thrown around once a batch of strongly negative reviews hit. That places the film's opening in a bracket with some of the lowest performing superhero movies of the modern age including "Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance" ($22.1 million) and "The Green Hornet" ($33.5 million). Perhaps more notable, it places the film far behind the previous screen iterations of the FF which came in at $56.1 million and $58.1 million almost ten years ago.

What these numbers mean for the future of the franchise is unclear. Fox had already placed a sequel for "Fantastic Four" on the schedule for 2017, though that plan is now in doubt. Perhaps the studio will instead move forward with a plan to merge the characters with the more popular X-Men universe as director Bryan Singer has hinted at.

Stay tuned for an update on the final official numbers for "Fantastic Four."

I fuckin HATE that Fox aquired these rights. Like... just give them back to Marvel so the Universe can be done right.

What else do they hold the rights to Pon?

But maybe ppl didn't bother because they completely revamped the story. That was unnecessary.
