We are talking about major gaps in the logic of the story.  We're talking about holes that made little sense at the end of the movie and aren't beginning.  There's one thing to have a solid story and another thing to just end a movie.   No what I missed was an actual threat to Earth.  There were no scenes of people on any of the planets he destroyed.  There was no threat to life.  We just see this cloud moving through and eating dead planets, so when he moves in on earth you wonder why he didn't eat any other planets.  Again, this is coming from me watching it as a common movie goer. Yeah, comic book knowledge i know he heats planets full of life, but you don't see that in the movie, thus you're left with a midnight audience whom are perplexed.    Clear to who? certainly not the audience i was with and certianly not myself or anyone i was with.  It was a cloud.  I think this is showing a problem of people too famliar with the comic inserting their own "points" instead of watching the movie.  The movie does not explain this and leaves it open.  we don't even see tendrils on the cloud.  What I missed was him destroying life. G I'm glad you read the comic book, but in the movie that is not explained. Again, seperate your comic book knowledge from what actually happened in hte movie.   We know that there was no more galactus, its safe to assume from a movie goer standpoint that he killed it.  Since silver surfer was denied lines and didn't get to explain what he was doing, we can only assume that the threat was over and that galactus is dead, esle he could just come back.  Ok, what happened in the movie. I realize youre a fanboy, but there's still a movie on screen and none of this background knowledge is known by the audience.  Perhaps next time, if this was the directors logic (they already know the comic book and can feel in the blanks) they can provide the comic books so the majority of the disappointed audience can read up after they left about all these glaring plot holes.  Good fiction gives the protoganist proper motivation to overcome these inner demons. A 2 minute heart to heart is not that type of motivation.  If saving the lives of your people is not enough motivation, what is.  Saving your family and your wife should have been enough. Jessica Alba is easy on the eyes, but certainly not beautiful enough to sway me to do something that saving my wife and family could not.  Wow, this sounds like a great movie. Please inform me when they release this one. Because I didn't see any implications of released memories in this one, I didn't see him reaching down. I saw a bad guy just decide at a moment that he had enough power to kill this big bad whom he was the slave of.  It's appropriate only because the end of the movie was near and the director realized he didnt know how he would kill galactus. Heck, he made up some cheezeball goofey (going against his movie mythos) way to take the board back from the idiotic dr. doom. I You should probably continue to hold your tounge especially when you're not saying much, and you certainly aren't reading.  No one said the movie was complete crap and a critic does not think every movie is crap. YOu look at the movie and you judge it based on what you saw, not what you interpretted and drew from references in the comic book.  If the movie didn't make sense to you, if there were glaring plot holes, its certainly not a movie that should be ranked along the batman begins and spidermans, which are solid 7s, 8s and 9s.  It should be average at best, which is your 4, 5, and 6 range. My problem is people lacking the knowledge of the rating system of 1-10.   Spidey 3, that was a bad movie, this movie was average. Again, i thought the first hour was pretty good. But the last act was rushed, thrown together, incohorent and went out on a wimper.</blockquote>
