Who is the voice of the Eater of Worlds? Galactus... in FANTASTIC FOUR: RISE OF THE SILVER SURFER!

Hey folks, Harry here... This is one of those good news, bad news sort of news updates.

From the Yatterling pipeline - I've gotten a couple of updates regarding FANTASTIC FOUR: RISE OF THE SILVER SURFER. A film that I desperately hope buries the fetid pile of shit that was the last film... however, with essentially the same talent pool... I'm wary. Although every trailer so far has kicked ass.

Well... turns out that they've found a voice for Galactus... Laurence Fishburne - now it's still a rumor - but a reliable one.

Then - apparently in Seattle on the night of April 10th - Fox had a test screening of FANTASTIC FOUR: RISE OF THE SILVER SURFER and the word on the screening that has reached me is that the film was "sooo bad that they felt dirty and wanted to write letters of complaint." I encourage anyone that feels that way or that loved it to write on in. I'm willing to give Tim Story a second chance - and I'm really hoping he nails this. That said, he'll have to entertain us for a lot longer than a trailer.
