[QUOTE="Desdichado, post: 2404680, member: 2205"] I don't know how that's "obvious" since that's not at all what I think, and I've made no claim to that effect. Looking at the comic books I've seen, FF was pretty equivalent in terms of content appropriateness to Spiderman or X-men (or the Avengers, or Captain America, or any other comic book) for most of its run. Granted, I've not read FF at all recently, and all of those others have taken a "dark turn" at one point or another in their run, and I can't say if FF has done so or not, because I don't know. But your point is still bizarre because the FF movie didn't have anything in it that was worse than Spiderman or X-men either; and in many cases it was actually [i]much more[/i] tame. Certainly in regards to violence, it's the tamest of the three. And the Jessica Alba underwear scene wasn't any worse than the Mystique in the john with the prison guard, or the Mary Jane wet t-shirt scene, or the Wrestlemania cheerleaders, etc. It's as if you either hadn't seen any of those other movies, or somehow expected FF to be different from those movies. If you're claiming that FF was [i]worse[/i] than those movies in terms of family friendly vs. potentially objectionable content, I'll just disagree with you completely. I think it's totally on par with the others, leaning towards being the tamest of them. [/QUOTE]
