The Marvel Cinematic Universe is known for constantly releasing new content, both in theaters and streaming with a Disney+ subscription. Fans who spent years watching the Marvel movies in order will recall the latest big screen release was The Fantastic Four: First Steps, which was set in a retro futuristic world. I recently re-watched it thanks to its release on Disney+, alongside my fiancé who missed its theatrical run. And, he had some memorable hot takes that had me rethinking the blockbuster.
Fans waited for years for the Fantastic Four to finally join the MCU, with Disney's acquisition of 20th Century Fox finally opening the doors for that to happen. That team of heroes made a splash in their debut movie, and are already set to return in upcoming Marvel movies. I liked First Steps in theaters, and re-watching it with my casual fan fiancé pointed out some things I'd like to talk out.
