This is a nice piece of work, but it still has some shortcomings with respect to the good article criteria.

Thanks for being quick with the problems. I have passed it as a Good article. Zenlax T C S 19:22, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
This article is not about one Fantastic Four film series; it is about one unreleased low-budget film and a film series of two films. a more appropriate article name would be "Fantastic Four in film". WesleyDodds ( talk) 03:55, 21 June 2008 (UTC)
The table of characters showed characters from the Spiderman movies. When I removed them it made the tables all jacked up. If anyone can fix them without reverting the changes that would be awesome. Lorddragyn ( talk) 18:29, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
Fantastic Four started its production in August 2005 in Vancouver,[7] and original filming ended in December, until Fox ordered for additional scenes. The reshooting carried on until May 2005. The film was released in July 8, 2005. These dates MUST be wrong. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.31.58.53 ( talk) 20:24, 19 April 2010 (UTC)
Couldn't this page be moved to Fantastic Four in film and be altered to include the 1994 film? As it is, it doesn't seem to serve much purpose. -- 121.216.246.100 ( talk) 10:38, 5 May 2011 (UTC)

I've just finished removing a great deal of inaccurate information in the section of the article regarding the reboot of the FF franchise by Fox. The information about Fox and Marvel negotiating to exchange the Silver Surfer and Galactus for an extension on the movie rights to Daredevil was long out of date. That proposal was made by Marvel in 2012, and was reportedly rejected immediately by Fox. As of now, the movie rights to Daredevil have expired and the franchise has reverted back to Marvel. There was also a sentence stating that the movie rights to the Fantastic Four expire in 2015, however the reference provided made no mention of 2015 being a deadline. The year 2015 seems to have been pure speculation by the author. I've done extensive searches for an expiration date on the FF movie license, and have never found any solid information on the subject. Just lots of speculation based on the deadlines of other properties which have been made public, which vary widely from one to the next. Wyldstaar ( talk) 16:18, 3 May 2013 (UTC)
I've now also removed mention that Allison Williams & Michael B. Jordan have been cast as Invisible Woman & Human Torch. The only news regarding these actors which has been released by Fox is that they've been cast in the FF reboot. No mention of the roles they will be playing was made. Various sites have speculated as to who they might be playing, but that's all. Speculation is not sufficient cause to include the information in the article. Wyldstaar ( talk) 04:47, 11 May 2013 (UTC)
This is merely a rumor on Bleeding Cool's part. The rumor itself has been debunked by HuffPo and ScreenCrush but it's unclear what is true at the moment. Does anyone have anything to add to the discussion? 71.188.30.224 ( talk) 02:38, 16 March 2014 (UTC)
Confirmed writer and director, six major roles cast with notable actors, filming set to begin any day now ("early May 2014", according to this article), and notable publications such as Variety and The Hollywood Reporter have written multiple articles on the film's development...it does stretch WP:NFF a bit, but it seems to me that there is enough progress on the film to at least make a beginning article. What does everyone else think?-- Invisiboy42293 ( talk) 18:59, 2 May 2014 (UTC)

This is not documented anywhere. The chain of rights documented in this article go from marvel, to Constantin, sub-license to Fox, then suddenly back to DisnryMarvel. There is a link missing, which denotes the fact the Constantin gave the rights back to Marvel. does DisneyMarvel actually own the rights now, or are they still with Constantin? Anthony ( talk) 19:58, 21 March 2019 (UTC)
Can we please make a separate page dedicated to the future MCU film? Logan100702 ( talk) 20:50, 21 September 2022 (UTC)
The article currently has an Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania section with a single sentence: "Elements from Fantastic Four volume 1 #16 and volume 2 #19 were adapted in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania (2023)."
First of all, the source which is linked does not even mention a single comic so I'm not sure where those specific books came from. Second, even if it this is true I don't think this section should be included in this article. No Fantastic Four characters are in the movie, no explicit references are made to any uniquely Fantastic Four concept, and the fact that the director took inspiration from the Fantastic Four for the Ant-Man movies do not warrant inclusion here.
