An exciting new piece for the new “The Fantastic Four: First Steps” movie has just been revealed. This particular piece intrigued a large number of people for reasons other than the movie. A close-up image of an exceedingly admired individual with blue glowing orbs in place of their eyes appeared in conjunction with an equally visually appealing and dramatic caption which read: “Feels like a stretch… Don’t miss The Fantastic Four: First Steps on the big screen, get tickets now!”

There are several reasons why the image is good for marketing. The photo also has a figure in the image that has a lot of uncertainty about his armor, which makes people want to interact with the social media post to learn more about the film’s story. The user gets a different experience once they get in the image—Mister Fantastic’s, better known as Reed Richards, movement enables one to interact in social media. For example, Reed Richards is visibly being stretched in a very small video; all people have to do is swipe so the video can be seen. Though the social media interaction is not as advanced, the feature is very simple to use. Therefore it does not require the user to read any instructions to navigate the social media interface, acknowledge the stretch video, or extend the video to adaptive clicks.
Once people got to interact with the feature, they began sharing bursts of very funny laughter. They started to comment to me personally, “These are fantastic IM LOVINGGG THEMMM,” which refers to the very funny team dynamic they have. Other people’s attention is captivated by the smallest things like the guy and the fridge, so they made a very beautiful comment, “Me and the cheese string I just got out the fridge (yummy yummy),” which is a very good description of the silly, stretchy stretch. Someone else compared the interaction’s fun to “a kid playing with a rubber band,” which shows that many were very happy with the playful side to the interaction.

As the conversation continued, the animations related to the Reed Richards Stones’ powers in the promotional teaser and Leslie’s powers in the promotional set garnered much concern from the comics and movie lover community. A big devotion was from the fans of Reed Richards from the marvel comics and Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), who were all concerned with Leslie being pulled apart. His animated figure in the promotional video tiles registered a significant concern. “He should be able to stretch more then that ??” from a concerned fan became a sort of launching pad for even more heated arguments and unending comments surrounding the topic.
