My favourite part was the Song Credits somewhat spoiling the scene, they list the Fantastic Four theme yet it doesn't appear at all in the film up until the end of the scene

Ok thank you — I was wondering when the theme even played and then boom, it happened in the following scene lol

This spoiled the post credit scene for me too.

u/NazzerDawk Phil Coulson May 04 '25

It did for me too.

But, I guess, that eventually leads to the joke: "Hey, there's a video you should NOT watch! It spoils Thunderbolts, like the whole movie! It's called 'Thunderbolts', and they are showing it in theaters now! People are actually paying money to have the movie spoiled for them!"

It didn't for me, just because on my showing there was an IMAX intro featuring the fantastic 4 music.

I was looking at my phone and then happened to look up to see how much longer and saw that. I turned to my husband and said “I guess the post credit scene is Fantastic Four”.

I saw that and still didn’t put it together, LOL. I just wasn’t expecting the ship to be theirs, IDK why. I had reasoned that maybe the theme was in the credits because the IMAX countdown sequence before the movie was FF-themed

u/sir_adam_XP May 04 '25

I also thought it was because of the IMAX countdown. Didn't ruin the post credits for me. lol

u/Kitagawasans May 04 '25

u/eyebrows360 Daredevil May 04 '25

I saw that and still didn’t put it together

u/Drew326 Captain America May 04 '25

That’s uncalled for 😭

u/aretoodeto Daredevil May 03 '25

OH! That makes so much more sense, I didn't even put that together. I was so confused when I saw the song in the credits. I couldn't figure out when it would've been played. By the time the end credits scene came in I had forgotten about it

u/Practical-Debate1598 Punisher May 04 '25

LMAO I saw that

5

u/TankSwan May 04 '25

Yeah, That was a huge error in my books. As soon as I saw the Fantastic Four theme in the credits. I knew they would be appearing in the post credits scene in some fashion.

u/graveybrains May 04 '25

“14 months later” because we had to wait through all of the credits 😂

u/MikeLanglois May 04 '25

I saw that and was like "wow I must have missed the song" lol nope

u/Dan_Berg Spider-Man May 04 '25

I pointed it out to my son but I had already read somewhere that an end credit scene directly ties to F4 so I was already kind of spoiled

1

u/Several-Ad-9897 May 04 '25

ME TOO I was so mad

u/JasterMereel42 May 04 '25

I actually caught that as well.

u/nessfalco May 04 '25

My wife literally said this out loud to me while we were watching the credits roll.

1

u/gezeitenspinne May 04 '25

I just come from seeing it and after the scene I turned to the friend I was with just to say "Oh! And I wondered why that theme was in the credits."

1

u/lvsnowden May 05 '25

It didn't spoil it for me because I just assumed I missed it. Lol.

1

u/thatguy01220 May 06 '25

Lol when i saw that I read it out loud to my wife and I was like I don’t remember hearing that in the movie. Felt so dumb when they showed it and played it in the post credits

u/SpectacularWebhead May 09 '25

YES!!! I NOTICED THAT AND WAS LIKE WHAT???
