Wait, they did an episiode trapping X-Men in an arcade (I haven't watched today's ep yet) and didn't actually use Arcade as the villain? I think I'm actually more intrigued to see how/why.

I am a silver surfer fan so i hope they can pull it off. There have been female heralds before but i can see them not wanting to use Nova, for example, because her powers are so similar to human torch. I personally dont care about FF and would prefer a surfer story that takes place away from earth and i have a suspicion that if they dont do a good job of surfer here then we will never get a proper adaptation. Everyone has put the last lovely FF movies in the memory hole so that doesnt really count.

Tobias: you could try doing a live-action version of Galactus. Disney: has that ever worked? Tobias: goodness no. People always somehow convince themselves that it will…. But it MIGHT work for US…

I think in this day and age they will just do Galactus like the cartoons did. After all, the MCU has shown full-sized celestials multiple times, and though changed, Eternity has appeared too. There's no reason they couldn't make a traditional Galactus work too.

The cinematics from the first Ultimate Alliance game had the closest thing to a live-action classic Galactus we've ever gotten and I always thought they pulled it off really well. He came off as ominous due to how emotionless and utterly bored he looked, like caring to even acknowledge all the horror he was causing was beneath him.

If they introduce Galactus, they need to have his BFF, Squirrel Girl. They can both poo poo talk Thanos.

Wait I think I’m confusing the Galactus hungry cloud from the Alba Fantastic 4 with the Fear hungry cloud from Green Lantern which is good because they both show had bad an idea a hungry giant celestial creature is for a movie.

It probably wouldn't translate well to the screen, but I always liked the idea of Galactus being so immense (on the Galactic, no pun intended, scale of power) that his movement is gradual, implacable, and utterly indifferent. Just this giant, immense thing who shows up and slowly, without explanation or even apparently noticing efforts to stop him, lands on the planet and begins setting up for draining it of all life just as a meal. The Surfer is the only meaningful interaction the heroes have both in terms of dialogue and "fighting", and even she seems utterly alien and off at first until they're able to reach her, but even she doesn't so much talk with Galactus as is operating on the understanding of what Galactus demands. Mainly I think this because I constructed a little fantasy scene in my head where Galactus spends the whole movie like this until Reed holds up the Ultimate Nullifier and Galactus makes just the barest but still noticeable shift of his eyes towards it in the first explicit acknowledgement of the humans' existence, which is akin to having God suddenly notice you standing there and all the terror that comes with that.

This sounds magnificent and therefore almost certainly not what's going to happen. I got 2:1 odds on CGI cloud creature, 5:1 on Ego-style normal actor with a three-second cameo of the comic version for the fanboys, 20:1 on comic-accurate version that only appears in an isolated sequence for less than a minute at the film's climax, 100:1 on comic-accurate version substantially interacting with the principal cast for at least one act. Taking all bets!

Gravitas Shortfall posted:I'd like them to show how Galactus looks different to different species but that might be a confusing step too far Yeah this is what I was thinking too. Some combination of what Jerusalem said which sounds loving rad, then Galactus is a bit like "ugh FINE I'll come down and talk to you if it means that much to you" and he's played by Giancarlo Esposito or someone with similar heft, but wearily and boredly explains that he doesn't actually look like this but even a planet's smartest inhabitant isn't capable of conceiving his true form

I was kind of surprised getting into the comics that Galactus looks like a big white dude to all humans. Seeing as they've established how he's just your mind's eye constructing something unseeable, there's a missed opportunity to play around with his design, race, etc based on who's lookin' which I would have fully expected more recent comics involving him to go for. Unless of course he just looks like he does in the comics because I'M a big white dude

I'm sure that this has been contradicted a million times but when Galactus is actually physically in front of you he looks like the big guy with the funny hat. However he often uses a "manifestation body" which is what appears differently to different people. Also the race of Taa-ans that Galactus is originally from were canonically humanoid. It's kind of disappointing as I liked the idea of his true form being completely unknowable but it turns out he's just using snapchat filters.
