Does this seem logical to anyone else? 'Cause it doesn't to me. Jessica Alba is uberhot, but she is not Invisible Girl. Lets put aside the fact that she can't act if her life depended on it, but Invisible Girl - to my knowledge - is a blue eyed, blonde white girl. Alba is a dark haired, fairly tanned Latina. Fans of the Fantastic Four comics have been waiting for this movie for 40+ years, and this is what they do to the fans. Is Avi Arad on crack? Not only was I let down when they hired the guy that directed Barbershop and Taxi to helm this project, but now this tragedy. I'm dumbfounded. I honestly do not know what to say. And what pissed me off the most was that I heard this news right after I saw Spider-Man 2. I was incredibly happy and gratified seeing that it was a big improvement from the letdown that was the original, but then to come home and read that Alba was officially cast as Invisible Girl, I just went nuts. It was as if the studio had asked me to put out my hands, then they proceeded to take a dump in my hands. Then looked at me and said, "Here! Run off and enjoy."

If it's any consolation, the color of her skin won't matter when she's invisible. ??

Rachel McAdams would have been a better choice. She actually looks like a believable Invisible Girl, unlike Jessica Alba!

Hey,I'm just glad we'll be able to see Jessica Alba up on screen again. I've missed her since Dark Angel, and no, I did NOT go see her in Honey.

Ummm, yep. I think you made a good call on Ms McAdams there. Can't find fault in that.

they couldve casted her as The Thing and id STILL go see it on account of how incredibly fine she is. oh my gosh just thinking of how hot she is too much for me right now. sooooo hot in "honey" too. crappy movie but really, who cares about the movie?

Only if she has her first nude scene... In order to get naked I need to take my clothes off.. and they show her taking them off... slowly... while doing a sexy dance.

And btw honey... well a bit of a dissapointment of a movie. I was wanting a lot more sexieness and a lot less kids. Guess I would be in the evil producer category. But at least I would be one that made MONEY off of his movie.

I heard that Alba was the one who got the whole kids thing on line. Perhaps a special directors cut is out with more sexy action.. but I doubt it. Alba is doing a very good job of staying sexy by not going trashy.

Hollywood is trying to kill me now. Lets continue with another terrible casting choice - Jack Black as the Green Lantern. I love the guy, but bad choice. He's a funny son of a bitch and his cameo in Anchorman, I think, stole the movie, but as the Green Lantern? Are they shittin' me? The description says a zany Mask-like comedy! Green Lantern is a superhero - hence action sequences. Zany comedy? Are they pulling these ideas out of their asses?

Anybody know when in the FF4 history the movie is set? Is it when they first get their powers? If so, then Rachel McAdams would have been a good choice for Susan Storm (later Richards) aka The Invisible Girl.

Jessica Alba definitely has the hottness factor, but I can not see her as the Invisible Girl.
