[From last week’s USAToday](http://www.usatoday.com/life/movies/news/2006-11-29-fantasticar_x.htm)

For next spring’s _Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer_.

I really liked the last movie. They’re playing it coy, but I hope that Galactus makes an appearance.

I enjoyed the first one as well. It weirds me out a little that they are putting “Silver Surfer” in the title. The average person who has never heard of the character is going to just go “WTF” at that. The first one blended humor and action pretty well this makes me think they might add a bit more camp to it.

Well, at least it doesn’t look as much like a Flying Bathtub as the original comic version did, back around 1961.  
Nice to see there’s to be a second movie.

But… it’s the Silver Surfer! He’s just weird cool to begin with!
