Here's the first glimpse at the SILVER SURFER from Fantastic Four 2. My first thought was, "well, they didn't fuck it up." I was hoping he'd look a bit more alien, although the smoothed-over ears are a step towards that. Avi Arad, Marvel's CEO, said on screen, the Surfer "will look somewhere between gun metal and fluid metallics so you can see the body motion, the breathing, the muscle tone, the mood..." As long as he doesn't move like an actual surfer in water. Yes he's on a long "surf board", but he's never been shown to "surf" - he rides the Cosmos. I don't want to see him pulling off surf maneuvers and emulating "stoner surfer dude stereotypes" and saying shit like "Hang 10, Dude!" as he fights. Odds are he does.

BEHOLD THE SILVER SUFER

This is obviously concept art...
Rest assured, Silver Surfer will look like TURD!!!
The production is just as fucked as the last film from what I hear.

You know he is going to be hanging ten and crap like that....You just know it.
Look if Legolas snow boards down a flight of stairs on an elf (or was it an ork) shield you know they are going to throw the cheese at silver surfer!
My stomach turns every time a movie has a character and he rides some object as if it were a skate, snow, or surf board.
