  1. I watched the first Fantastic Four and loved it, but haven’t had a chance to watch the newer ones. I also wouldn’t mind checking out Earth to Echo sometime.

  2. We’ve seen those Marvel films. We loved those films. We have yet to watch ‘Into the Woods’ though. I think we’ll just have to wait for it on Netflix. :)

  3. These are all great movie choices! My girls and I love all the the movies that we have seen on this list. I am dying to see Pan now though!
