@minesweeper0 I personally liked the quirk explanation in the first couple chapters and thought it was a great introduction to this story. What drew me in the most was the idea of the insert being a villain instead of a hero student or someone who looks up to heroes since there are to many of those on Wattpad which gets repetitive. The start to this story was refreshing for me when I first read it.

@minesweeper0 honestly i feel like my story has way more mature themes. Like i legit describe boiling homan bodies there and so far it stayed up. So i dont think that will be a problem but to be sure u can just save it in google docs or smt.

@minesweeper0 brother man its simple. Because of the “for adults” tag u got there the book doesnt get recomended at all. Had the same issue with my story. I turned the tag off and I started getting 5X more views. Like I legit found your story by chance on someones reading list.

@minesweeper0 saw the movie too was great definitely the best version of it and the 60s style setting was a nice touch to honor the comics along with other subtle things like the universe 828 is for august 28th Jack Kirby birthday 

It was also very clear, as other people have said, that this movie was cut-up in the editing room. I'm sure there's a large amount of footage that would've added a ton to this film, especially when it comes to the Thing, which is a bit of a letdown since he's my favourite. They seed in his subplot but it's never properly explored and falls flat. I also felt that the way they presented the Thing and how people in universe interacted with him was a bit lacking, there wasn't much struggle about his appearance or him fitting in, everyone just accepts him. I blame the comic this film was based on mostly, which is also named First Steps (I'm pretty sure), where the FF aren't shunned at first for their powers and are lauded as heroes from the jump. I just think this interpretation is boring. And it was one of the best parts of the 2000s movies. Ben feels like the only FF member who was better portrayed in those films by contrast. 
            
            There are smaller things, like they were pretty basic with Reed's powers, he stretches but it's nothing more than reaching out and grabbing things or jumping up high. Ben doesn't really get to shine much in fights either, it's most Sue and Johnny, and while that's cool, I can't help but want to see more clobberin'... 
            
            I know I sound very critical here, but that's just cause I care about these characters a lot. Regardless, I'd definitely recommend it. Fantastic Four: First Steps gets an 8/10. 
            
            Nuff said! 

Alright. General thoughts, I won't give any major spoilers. I think this is the best adaptation of the FF we've ever gotten, but more than that, the aesthetic of the universe was great, I loved the 60s-70s look and if I were producing the MCU from the ground up I'd have the entire universe done in the same way. If you're a comic fan, you're probably gonna like this film, especially of the original 60s run. They really focus on that golden age and don't feel scared to cometely modernise everything. 
            
            As someone who didn't think Pedro Pascal would be a good Reed Richards and didn't care for Joseph Quinn as Johnny Storm, I've gotta admit both of them were pretty stellar casting, alongside Vanessa Kirby as Sue Storm and Ebon Moss as Ben Grimm, but I already knew they'd be great. Pedro was definitely the stand-out for me, he really felt like Reed. Galactus looked perfect, they gave him all the aura he deserved.
            
            It wasn't perfect. Julia Garner's Silver Surfer was fine, that's as much as I can say. I didn't really care for her too much, and once you realise why they chose a woman iteration instead of the Silver Surfer we all know, it stands out like a sore thumb and undermines having her as an actual independent character and more as just a tool for the plot to progress.

@minesweeper0 as far as brits go you're definitely alright, to be fair though there aren't many cool British people in real life that I could name besides actors and actresses, you can't all be austin powers.

@__Trigger__ Bro said I've got no aura :(

@minesweeper0 honestly I guess I just expected your voice to be a bit deeper and maybe less accented, probably just due to naturally associating your profile picture with your writing even though I know that isn't actually you

The FF are my favourite superhero team though, so I might be a little biased.

@alek_ackerman I think Phantom gets bodied nine-times out of ten, even if they fight immediately. Human Torch and Invisible Woman are the main factors to consider. Human Torch out speeds and absorbs (some) radiation, so half of [L/N]'s powers don't even work on him. Invisible Woman has a very similar powerset to [L/N], and if he's distracted against Johnny she could very easily just one-tap him. The Thing and Mister Fantastic aren't really doing much in this fight. Mister Fantastic could probably deduce [L/N]'s powers within a short period and think of ways to fight around it. Even if [L/N] out the gate just blackholes someone, let's say he kills Johnny immediately, he'll suffer with his Quirk's weakness and it'll only get aggravated the more he fights making him continually weaker, until it's a battle of endurance, and I don't think he can deal with the Thing at that point. It's more balanced then if he were to be fighting 616 FF since BT's FF have less experience (they're essentially still in their first year as superheroes), but I don't think that changes too much. This also isn't including Crystal who I might technically consider a member of BT's FF at this point, even though its unofficial and hasn't been brought up much. I don't think she'd change much though. The Phantom does have some points on his side though. It does depend on whether they're all blood lusted cause the FF wouldn’t immediately go for the kill, while [L/N] wouldn't hesitate to kill any of them. Also Sue might be pregnant (wink) so that might make it harder for her to keep up in a fight endurance-wise. If [L/N] really locked in there's a chance he could win but he would come out the other end looking like a big fleshy tumour with arms and legs, so it would be a pyrrhic victory.

@minesweeper0 Black Tarantula F4 Vs Present FF Y/N

OUUU THATS GOOD

@__Trigger__ I don't mind, I was just gonna delete the message afterward anyway. But you can send yours. 

@minesweeper0 I'd be down to be honest, not sure how you'd be comfortable sending that considering this bumass app got rid of DMs but I could send mine if you'd rather do that

@minesweeper0 they’re about to be printing money with these gooner skins lmao.

Idk man I feel like you’re cooking up a massive plot twist or something along those lines. Still Very, VERY excited for more. (Ps: It’s my favorite fanfic on this website.)

Genuinely  cannot express how hype I am for the reveal of his true identity as the Phantom, it’s going to be so freaking amazing

@minesweeper0 ok yeah, that makes sense 

@minesweeper0 this is a sad day for all the use this app

@minesweeper0 but according to my sister that's good.

@minesweeper0  kinda sad. Fanfiction in general has been pretty dead unless it's about Korean shit.

A good writer, my mortal enemy.

@meman9907 I mean, my first story was a DC story even if it was crossover. If you're asking about whether I've thought about doing a story that's solely DC universe, then yes, but I haven't given enough thought to it. 

@minesweeper0 Hey i hope this isn't rude, but since we're on the topic of dc stuff i was curious if you were considered making your own work relating to that universe- like black tarantula. im not saying are you making one currently just wondering if it ever crossed your mind?

@ezioenthusiast Maybe this is a reach but if Warner Brothers didn't force a Justice League film directly after Man of Steel without even a real origin film for Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Flash, etc then there would've been way more room in the movies for Cavill's Superman to show some more human character development (I don't think he's a narcissistic god but he could've been given more human moments). The fact they rushed their Avengers film screwed the universe from the start imo.
