Looks like Disney isn't the only one running out of ideas.

I assumed the main factor wasn't lack of creativity, but wanting to go for "safe" options in an uncertain economy.

Yes, but I think they're losing touch with their fan-base. We don't need another origin story just because different actors play the roles. James Bond and Doctor Who have been played by numerous actors. I think they should just continue with the storyline regardless of who plays the part.

Couldn't agree more. As soon as I realise a movie I'm watching is about to be an origins story, I groan inside.

Indeed.

Actually it's Fox who is rebooting, Marvel currently doesn't have film rights to Fantastic Four.

Also worth nothing that Spiderman was Sony, not Marvel Studios.

Also, the Hulk remake was better than the Ang Lee one.

MARVEL STUDIOS IS NOT making the F4 reboot it is owned and being made by FOX..it has nothing! to do with Marvel. Theyve even cancelled the comic also SPider-Man was made by SONY NOT! Marvel
