Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer discussion (spoilers!)

I'm a huge reader of Orson Scott Card Reviews Everything, because he has good taste in books and, often, movies.

His negative review of FF2, for example.

However, I can't take him seriously anymore, after his attempt to pass this off as fact:
But let me tell you the good things. As comics fans know, the stupidest superhero ever brought out by a major comics publisher was the Silver Surfer. It was an obvious case of pandering, like the icky skateboarding in Hook -- designed to capitalize on a youth fad.

From what I understand, Silver Surfer was given a surf board because Kirby didn't want to draw yet another space ship.

I thought he just wanted to hang ten on the rings of URANUS!

I hate it when people hate on things that dont really matter, so what if its to grab the skate board audience? Still a cool concept and made for a good story

Yeah , Plus isn't that kind of the point of any media? to change and adapt current trends , styles , fads ect..... Look at how many movies have Ipods or tv shows have games consoles.

It's not "designed to capitalize on a youth fad" it's about keeping with the times and updating to each era. In a few years time say Jetpacks are around all the fad I bet they feature in comics , tv shows , movies , game (i know they already are in some stuff I mean more so)
 
Useless Fact Time!

In Japan the movie is known as Fantastic Four: Ginga No Kiki
which means something like Fantastic Four: Crisis Of The Milky Way(Galaxy?)

EXCLUSIVE! My "Footloose!" director (Chris Evans' brother-in-law) and choreographer (Chris Evans' brother) both told me that over Christmas break, Chris told them that he was told there won't be a Fantastic Four 3, even though they all had three-picture contracts.

I'm okay with that. :)
