The Abridged series for viewers like you, thank you.

Join us as we discuss Matt Shakman’s The Fantastic Four: First Steps—a film of moral conundrums and exposition dumps. We explore the Silver Surfer’s potential character texture, the dynamics and sacrifices within the team, and the film’s striking visuals and compositions. Our conversation considers the notable absence of violence, the forced love life subplot, and the complexities of leadership in hero films. As Galactus enters the story, we reflect on the stakes that define this new chapter. Please enjoy.
