Geekscape

It's time to come to terms with this past weekend's 'Fantastic Four' film. Yes, it was exactly as the internet said it was, a tortured, uninspired presentation of Marvel's First Family. But is there light at the end of the tunnel? YES. We try and guide you back to a world of hope and positivity (two things that are VERY Fantastic Four) as we talk through the missteps and where things might go from here. Also, how is 'Batman V Superman' faring and is Ben Affleck going to take over the cinematic Batman reigns for Warner Bros? We can only hope! And 'hope' is the word of the day here on Geekscape as we try and turn things around!
