yes virginia…there is a world consuming superbeing!

thanks to dr. codec, yours truly got word of the release of the trailer for the next fantastic four movie…

the power cosmic is like a baptism on my chest

rise of the silver surfer

regulars to the funcave might remember why that’s cause for minor celebration here.

either way, here are some selected screenshots pulled from the trailer.

trust me…

you’ll want to click to see the full size versions of these…

warping through stuff? don't remember that...

oh well. if it's a departure from the comic...you can be sure psychotic fanboys are already up in arms about it all over the intarweb.

even they would admit it makes for some cool fx!

i'm just hoping they don't take a ton of other liberties...

which never makes sense to me anyway. you picked the darn character...so why change it?

tough to snag classic 'kirby' poses from the trailer.

for you non-fanboys, 'kirby' refers to the silver surfer's true creator...jack 'king' kirby. and by pose...i mean something akin to the way kirby drew the silver surfer.

most of the good posing frames are too blurry to be of use, like this one.

usually, the best poses happen just as the camera movement causes ass of blur...bummer.

norrin radd pwnz j00!

upside down? what the...

oh...so he morphs through his board? i get it. wait. i don't remember that in the comic either. man...sometimes cg fx cause much much cheesier stuff in movies than 3-D ever thought about doing. and that's saying something if you ever saw jaws 3 in 3-D!

uh oh...watch out. fireball on your 6!

which reminds me...'ass' as used earlier means 'a lot.' oh...and the inclusion of this screenshot is for mastermind. enjoy amy!

i've got a bad feeling about this...

i came here to chew bubblegum & kick ass! and i'm all out of bubblegum...

not feeling so sparky now are ya, mr. fire britches?

what's the matter? galactic super-being wielding the power cosmic got your tongue?

up...

up...

up...

and away!

and don't forget. where there's silver surfer...there's galactus!

your friendly neighborhood happyfunboy’s thoughts on this subject can be summarized in one word…

excelsior!
