Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer/Awesome

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • This movie provides Reed Richards with one of the greatest moments he's had in any medium (although it should be noted that it was stolen from a comic book):

General Hagen: Let me make it clear for you and your pack of freaks here. I'm the quarterback. You're on my team, got it? But I guess you never played football in high school, did you Richards?
Reed Richards: No, you're right, I didn't. I stayed inside and studied, like a good little nerd. And fifteen years later, I'm one of the greatest minds of the 21st century, I'm engaged to the hottest girl on the planet, and the big jock who played quarterback in high school? Well he's standing right in front of me asking me for my help. And I say he's not gonna get a damn thing, unless he does exactly what I tell him, and starts treating my friends and me, with some respect.
[Pause]
General Hagen: Give him what he wants.
[The general storms off]
Susan Storm: I am so hot for you right now.
Johnny Storm: Me too.

    • Which is pretty much taken word for word from the Ultimate Galactus mini-series where he said this to Nick Fury.
  • Johnny taking on all four of their abilities to take on Dr. Doom.

Johnny: As my friend likes to say... It's clobberin' time.
