Fantastic Four 2 starts shooting, moviegoers already want their money back


From superherohype, "Fantastic Four: Rise of The Silver Surfer director Tim Story has updated his official Blog and says that filming has started on the sequel:

So it has begun! The Fantastic Four have been photographed for Rise of The Silver Surfer. Felt like old times. Everyone's back in the mix and really picking their characters up where we last left off.

We also shot Andre Braugher for the first time. He plays General Hager, an old acquaintance of Reed Richards and one of the major additions to the movie. Jessicas is looking amazing. Chris has his energetic performance firing on all cylinders. Ioan looks great and Chiklis is funny as ever as the blue-eyed Thing.

One of the days was pretty long. Just happened to be one of those locations that we can't come back to and we had a lot of effects shots. Those things always take forever. The background plates, then the actor buy himself, then the crowd. Blah blah blah. Wish we could shoot everything practically, but then again, I guess stretching Ioan may not go over too well.

More to come guys. Fairly straightforward start. 3 days off then we're back to it.

20th Century Fox will release Fantastic Four: Rise of The Silver Surfer on June 15, 2007."

I saw a bit of 102 Dalmatians this weekend with my friend Oona, who is four. The good guy is Reed Richards, whose real name is too stupid for me to bother typing. His clout is not helped by being the guy they get when Jeff Daniels isn't available.

God, I do want my money back. How is these words meant to make anyone happy?

"Jessica is looking amazing. Chris has his energetic performance firing on all cylinders. Ioan looks great and Chiklis is funny as ever as the blue-eyed Thing."

I get that Alba looks hot, but that's largely diminished by "Ioan looks great." Oh boy. And the Thing/Torch statements speak for themselves.
