Part 5/11:
Delving deeper into the trailer, one of the standout points was the visual identity the film presents. It marks a departure from the generic aesthetics that plagued earlier Marvel phases. Here, the director takes a distinct approach, emphasizing the essential ingredients of creativity, particularly through its 1960s setting, which aligns faithfully with the origins of the Fantastic Four as conceived by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby.
Marvel’s prior phase was criticized for a lack of distinctive visual flair, rendering numerous films and series somewhat monotonous. In contrast, the Fantastic Four is positioned to alter this trajectory significantly. The retro-futuristic aesthetics underscore the essence of the characters, paving the way for a unique cinematic experience.
