Don’t Miss These 2 Essential Tips Before Watching The Fantastic Four: First Steps!

by

A fresh ad for “The Fantastic Four: First Steps” comes with some suggestions for audiences heading to Marvel Studios’ latest flick. As Phase 5 concludes with “Thunderbolts”, The Fantastic Four signals the start of a brand new chapter in the MCU, introducing four crucial superheroes. With “Avengers: Doomsday” looming as the next big crossover movie, each Marvel Cinematic Universe film is growing increasingly important to catch on the big screen promptly.

*Note: I’ve replaced the asterisk with an explanation since it was not clear from the original text that “Thunderbolts” is a Marvel movie and the title of Phase 5.

Fans have shared the newest trailer for “The Fantastic Four: First Steps” online. This ad functions as a public service announcement for viewers, featuring a voiceover from the 60s urging spectators to “get comfortable in their seats” and “turn off their electronic devices.” Notably, the warning also includes a written message “(Visi-Phones included),” which is a nod to a device invented by Mr. Fantastic in the comics that enabled visual calling, suggesting that this gadget might be featured in the upcoming Marvel Cinematic Universe film.

In conclusion, the voiceover advises viewers to catch “Marvel Studios’ The Fantastic Four: First Steps” in theaters when it premieres on July 25. Some might be puzzled about the term “Fantastivision”, but it’s simply a nod to the film’s retro-futuristic theme that’s been highlighted in its promotional materials. Noteworthy, The Fantastic Four: First Steps is among the few films this year (alongside Marvel’s Thunderbolts) that were shot using IMAX digital cameras, which makes it an excellent choice for a big-screen viewing experience.

*Note: Marvel’s Thunderbolts is not yet officially confirmed to be filmed on IMAX cameras.

The upcoming Marvel film during Phase 6 is helmed by director Matt Shakman, known for WandaVision. The main quartet of superheroes in this movie consists of Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, and Joseph Quinn. In Fantastic Four: First Steps, we find the group of heroes striving to safeguard their planet from the impending danger posed by Galactus (portrayed by Ralph Innes), a being with an appetite for consuming planets.

Why The Fantastic Four is A Must-See in Cinemas

Besides watching The Fantastic Four: First Steps in IMAX, there are multiple reasons why viewers should catch it at the cinema instead. For one, since secrets from the movie might not stay hidden for long, it’s best to watch it in cinemas as quickly as possible to prevent the plot being spoiled before you get a chance to see it. This became evident with the recent launch of Marvel’s Thunderbolts, where a significant spoiler was disclosed during the film’s promotional campaign following its opening weekend.

The previews of the upcoming film, “The Fantastic Four: First Steps“, seem to suggest an epic conclusion that die-hard fans will find captivating. Moreover, the picture still leaves some crucial queries unanswered, such as how the superhero clan shifts from their world to the main Earth of the MCU for the occurrences in “Avengers: Doomsday“. Additionally, there’s a possibility that this Marvel movie is concealing many aspects in its trailers, making it crucial for any MCU enthusiasts to watch it at the cinema.

From the tantalizing glimpse in the latest teaser trailer, it’s clear that “The Fantastic Four: First Steps” is embracing a captivating retro-futuristic vibe from its alternate Earth setting, marking a striking departure from the more familiar aesthetics of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. This unique approach promises a refreshing cinematic journey, one that I can’t wait to immerse myself in on the grandeur of the big screen.
