[[WMG: [[AuthorsSavingThrow Author's Saving Throws]] for the sequel]]
The sequel is very unlikely to happen, but let's get cracking to repairing the damages caused by this first movie anyways:
* Now that the events of Planet Zero are behind them, the newly formed Fantastic Four start an independent research organization called the Future Foundation. It's not off to a great start, but it still has potential.
* The Four receive their uniforms, which have become bright blue versions of their former containment suits with big "4" emblems on them. Johnny proudly claims they are his idea.
* Ben is still mopey about his appearance, and had been trying to keep up a [[StepfordSmiler cheery exterior]] so that the others wouldn't fuss over it. It doesn't help that his older abusive brother had resurfaced and he has to go back to Brooklyn to deal with it. In fact, confrontations with his brother will pretty much address his "It's Clobbering Time" outburst in the last movie, suggesting that as he grew older Ben was becoming [[NotSoDifferent more like his brother]], something he really doesn't want.
* The Four discover that the energy from Planet Zero had leaked not only into their world, but their history as well, creating a new monstrous race known as the Subterranea ([[Film/XMen and maybe a mutation in a small percentage of the human population]]). Even more bizarre is that they find out that the leader of the Subterranea is Harvey Allen's disgruntled [[BackupTwin twin brother]] Rupert Allen, now calling himself the Mole Man.
* In the middle of all of this, the Four end up in Latveria, where they find a very alive but still heavily mutated and transformed Victor Von Doom ruling the country, slowly turning it into a small first world nation. Victor is more collected and controlled than we last saw him because the Doom that the Four fought was not him, [[{{Retcon}} but one of many duplicates of him created by Planet Zero to inhabit itself]]. The military excursion simply ran into one of them and made the mistake of taking it away from its home turf. The amused Victor calls them "[[MythologyGag Doombots]]." Despite his satisfaction with ruling a country, Victor is still bitter and jealous of Reed and their infamous feud is born.
* And finally, the movie will gear more towards the free-spirited, over-the-top science adventures of the comics rather than the dark and depressing feel it was trying to go for at first.
But of course, the sequel's pretty much cancelled, so what's the point, eh?
The sequel is very unlikely to happen, but let's get cracking to repairing the damages caused by this first movie anyways:
* Now that the events of Planet Zero are behind them, the newly formed Fantastic Four start an independent research organization called the Future Foundation. It's not off to a great start, but it still has potential.
* The Four receive their uniforms, which have become bright blue versions of their former containment suits with big "4" emblems on them. Johnny proudly claims they are his idea.
* Ben is still mopey about his appearance, and had been trying to keep up a [[StepfordSmiler cheery exterior]] so that the others wouldn't fuss over it. It doesn't help that his older abusive brother had resurfaced and he has to go back to Brooklyn to deal with it. In fact, confrontations with his brother will pretty much address his "It's Clobbering Time" outburst in the last movie, suggesting that as he grew older Ben was becoming [[NotSoDifferent more like his brother]], something he really doesn't want.
* The Four discover that the energy from Planet Zero had leaked not only into their world, but their history as well, creating a new monstrous race known as the Subterranea ([[Film/XMen and maybe a mutation in a small percentage of the human population]]). Even more bizarre is that they find out that the leader of the Subterranea is Harvey Allen's disgruntled [[BackupTwin twin brother]] Rupert Allen, now calling himself the Mole Man.
* In the middle of all of this, the Four end up in Latveria, where they find a very alive but still heavily mutated and transformed Victor Von Doom ruling the country, slowly turning it into a small first world nation. Victor is more collected and controlled than we last saw him because the Doom that the Four fought was not him, [[{{Retcon}} but one of many duplicates of him created by Planet Zero to inhabit itself]]. The military excursion simply ran into one of them and made the mistake of taking it away from its home turf. The amused Victor calls them "[[MythologyGag Doombots]]." Despite his satisfaction with ruling a country, Victor is still bitter and jealous of Reed and their infamous feud is born.
* And finally, the movie will gear more towards the free-spirited, over-the-top science adventures of the comics rather than the dark and depressing feel it was trying to go for at first.
But of course, the sequel's pretty much cancelled, so what's the point, eh?

[[WMG:Fox will release a DirectorsCut of the movie]]
They did the same thing with their ''Daredevil'' movie, and in that case, the Director's Cut was considered far superior to the theatrical cut, to the point that it managed to salvage the movie for some fans. Since this movie was a gigantic money bomb in its theatrical release, it wouldn't be unreasonable for Fox to similarly try and salvage this one (and possibly the ''Fantastic Four'' brand itself) with a Director's Cut.
