Saw the midnight showing, and for the most part this was better than the first one, but it had some of the same flaws as the first one did.
***********************Spoilers ahead************************
There is a small love story started between tourch and Frankie, who as we all know later becomes Nova. The love story was similar to Ben and Alcia in #1, it was kind of there without anything to really build on it to justify why they were together at the end of the movie. However, if you watch the extended cut there are some scenes which make-up for this.
Then there is the Johnny needing to learn to be a team player storyline, that felt really pushed, like they didn't really explore it and make it flow with the film.
Lastly, Galactus, he is a big fucking cloud, the only hint of the original form is when his cloud passes over Saturn and you see the shadow of his helmet. Then Surfer destories Galactus with a big power bomb and thats it. They really underplayed Galactus which was a major let down.
