Aug. 3rd, 2025 04:28 pmI think when I go to the movies from here on in will largely be determined by when the temperature outside is okay for a walk. Also when I end up needing to get something from the Wegman's nearby. Both were the case today, and so I went to see Fantastic Four. It was very much a standard Marvel movie, but it was a pretty well-done one, with a quartet of characters at the center with the kind of endearing family dynamic we all spent years wanting the Avengers to have, and Pedro Pascal carrying a significant part of it by the strength of his performance. I had also heard Michael Giachinno talk about scoring it a little in San Diego (the composers panel was in the Indigo Ballroom right before the Critical Role one), so I paid special attention to that, and it kind of carried it as well.
Unfortunately, I think seeing it on the Hoffman's so-called IMAX screen (not a real IMAX screen; it's just a bigger screen than usual) left me with headache. It's been throbbing on and off since the credits started rolling.
