Shalla Bal is supposed to be featured only in this movie right?

RUMOR — There was a FF screening in L.A. earlier this week and according to scooper Murphy’s Multiverse, these were some of the reported reactions:

Positives:

• Ralph Ineson’s Galactus is described as “TERRIFYING” and the best part of the movie.

• Galactus' design looks like he was ripped straight from the comics.

• The film’s plot feels very “Lovecraftian” with a “cosmic horror angle” that gives it “a lot of personality.”

Negatives:

• Viewers felt the characters lacked development.

• Reed Richards’s powers were underwhelming, and The Thing was barely used

Considering how 1-note The Thing is, that's probably OK since he'll be in all the sequels, Avengers, and probably more movies. We'll see plenty of Mr. Grimm.

I was never very clear on how big Galactus was supposed to be. Apparently the answer is whatever size the comic needed him to be at the time.

not so much the comic. i think the more energy he consumes the larger he is with 30 ft being approximately his average

i would also like to see how he is portrayed through other eyes. in the comics he is seen as what ever races is viewing him. so a skrull would see galactus as a skrull and groot would see him as a tree. id love to see how a dog views galactus

I've never heard of that "portrayed" detail. Which comic explained that?

I think they went away for a while, but I remember movie tie-in popcorn buckets from when I was a kid too.

Cheap plastic souvenirs that people go crazy for can maybe somewhat help cushion the fall of the movie theater business

I can maybe see myself wanting one if it was related to a franchise I cared about. Like if I could buy a popcorn bucket of Ethan Hunt's head?!
