Did we turn a corner and I missed it? Aren't superhero movies doing well as action/adventure dramas?? What is with the concept of making these movies into comedies?

Empire Online spoke to Marvel Studio's Avi Arad about the upcoming Fantastic Four film:

"It's funny, high adventure," he said, confirming rumours that that the Tim Story-directed movie will be primarily a comedy. "But you are going to tear up too. It's a bittersweet comedy."

I know it's very early on the Green Lantern/Jack Black thing and that could change drastically, but this is a prime decision maker talking about a film that's going into production.

Thank God for Batman Begins

Thanks to "Metal Head"
