I am sure most of you who have seen the FF4 part2 teaser will know what i am talking about and although we cant state actual facts we can speculate.

My speculation is that this film could really make the Surfer a house hold name e.g known to none comic fans, although we cant say much still the films out but the teaser looked aswome and if the films good Surfer might just get his big break.

wanna post a link to that teaser man.. if you dont mind..

Surfer's always been a popular obscure character, but the movie will have to be very well recieved for anything monumental to happen to Surfer's standing with the general population.

Not if this movie is of the same "quality" as the last one.

Bah. The last movie was fine. They just should have had a Latverian Doom.

It felt like an extended episode of Power Rangers. I was waiting for the F4 to get together and strike a pose near the end.

They didn't do Jesus poses like Superman, or have Ahnold in a movie. To be honest, there's considerably worse out there. The movie is fun to watch. You can't expect an oscar.

Either way, Ben better get in a Slugfest with the Surfer.

In order for Norrin to be have a successful ongoing series he's gonna have to be powered down or atleast have a low showing once in awhile.

Why? Norrin is fine the way he is. Why tone him down? That would be like making Superman around the level of Supreme Power Hyperion or something.

True I can't imagine this Movie Surfer slugging it out with Movie Ben when movie ben struggled to lift a firetruck.

Didn't seem like he had problems lifting it after he had his grip and feet planted.

Forgive me but i am completely lost on your statement perhaps you can elaborate?

Umm... he does... all the time... Well....whatever. A character who's as powerful as he is has a hard time keeping a ongoing series. Norrins Volume #4. was f*cking total crap. But I stuck it out cause I'm a fan. There really isn't much he cannot do when it comes down to it, it's hard to find villains to give him hell.

Looks like a fun moive. If done right (they always show the best part in the trailers), then yes SS would get a boost of fanbase.


Speaking of.... I really wish they inserted Cable in the X Men movies.

Y'know, it can go either way, bigtime. If the movie -- or even if just the character -- is done well, SS can take off.

But if either, or especially if both suck, SS will go from being an undamaged unknown to a known flop.

I just hope this movie doesn't butcher Surfer like so many comic book movies have done.

It will. .

We don't know if it will or not. What he does in the trailer already looks amazing.

You mean Killswitch Engage? Yup. Thus the username.

dam, anyone else got a site where i could see the trailer, fox keeps freezing on me. gar!

I hope this movie doesn't really well and Surfer gets his own movie (with Thanos as the villain ).

Also gota comment on how Surfer clowned johnny's ass for a min only to own his ass effortlessley.

The teaser is ****in great.And that's not even the final rendering for the CGI, it will be surely a bit better when the movie get released.
Surfer really owned Johnny in their first contact, but I hope they get a good nova blasts vs cosmic power battle in the skies and then when Johnny is down Ben makes his entrance ready to rumble.
For those who argue about Thing VS Surfer, originally the Thing was a mere Class 5 right after the cosmic ray irradiation.His strength growed in the years.Now in the movie we still got a heralder of Galactus, but surely Benji will be stronger than in the beginning, so a good slugfest is out here.
What really interests me is the "FULL DOOM" affermation of Tim Story.Seeing how they are dealing with the Surfer, I hope the good Doctor finally gets his respect and the power level he deserve, plus he'll start acting as a genious and not a mid tier criminal head.

hopefully, movie be a hit

I just hope people don't think Surfer is a ripoff of the T-1000.

The "full Doom" thing has me thinking maybe he'll steal Surfer's powers. Possibly only some of them, or it powers him up like the original cosmic rays did, so they have a big cosmic battle or Surfer and the FF have to team up to stop Doom. And then he feels bad about Galactus coming to eat the planet and turns on him.

If they make surfer anywhere near as powerful as he is on the comics hell put Johnny onhis ass again and then pound Ben to the ground

Has anyone seen any photos as to how the Silver Surfer looks in the movies? I think it would be a very hard special effect to pull off. If he ends up looking fake or GGI like, then I don't think the Silver Surfer will be to popular.......in the movies anyway.

I don't know how you can make silver man that doesn't look fake or CGI-like. I fully expect him to have the T-1000 liquid metal look. I wonder if he'll look too busy though.

None of the four can match him one-on-one, of course. They will do something through teamwork, and some invention of Reed's.
I will be disappointed though, if Galactus doesn't show up in the third act.

agree with everything, espiically as ss just will own all of them individually, he basically told johnny to chill out

Depends how close he stands to Invisible Woman. shifty

Which is EXACTLY what people will think and why he won't be a housebrand name.

Also, the last FF4 movie sucked and it didn't do as well as hoped.

This one is bound to suck as well. Also the release date is in the midst of several blockbuster titles that most people (including me) are going to see instead.

It's the other way around. The film got terrible reviews, yes, and paled that summer against Batman Begins. But, it overcame the reviews to become a bigger hit than expected. It was no.1 it's opening weekend, and grossed at least $50 million more in North America than was predicted for it before it's release. That's why we are getting a second film (and promises it will be better) - FF made money.
Now, hopefully intelligent people will remember SS predates the T-1000 by over 25 years, so he's not a ripoff. The Surfer has had mention in pop media for years before this; just check out the list in Wikipedia.

i think that if this movie goes down right, sufer is gonna be loved by everyone....even ppl who had no knowladge of him in the comics

Intelligent people? You mean comic book nerds. One look at Silver Surfer and the average laysman will state:

Dude that's Terminator ripoff.

And they've right to think so since it's the most popular deciption of "liquid CGI".

Silver Surfer won't become a housebrand name. I know it's difficult for comic fans to swallow but if you REALLY think about it and think like a normal person for once, it makes sense.

And unfortunately it's being released around the time of Pirates of the Carribean, Spider-Man 3 and other blockbuster movies that will likely overshadow it.

And everyone knows it's gonna suck. The trailer indicates lots of sucky dialogue (Man! I just bought this tux! . Anyone who thinks it's gonna be more than one and half to two star movie is kidding themselves to death.

Silver Surfer is doomed for obscurity, I'm afraid.

FF2 will open a month after POTC3 and Spider Man 3; and three weeks before Transformers. It's got the prime slot of June to itself, to make noise.
All I'm saying is, if the first one managed to be a hit despite being so bad and cheesy, the second one must certainly become a hit as well, especially if it's better.
When ET and the other entertainment shows get talking about the film, they will bring up the Surfer's history - he was referenced constantly as Richard Gere's role model in the 80's movie Breathless, among other things. When this trailer first premiered, the photo of the Surfer was front-and-centre on Yahoo's news page. I'm feeling positive about the audience reaction out there.

A lot of psychics here at kmc, hehe.

Draco, I have a question. When has Johnny Storm ever had good dialogue?

thats a shame, since surfer his years older then terminator, he was created aroun 1966. But when you look at the trailer you alaways will remember t-1000.
