FF: Rise Of Silver Surfer who got so many bad critics

[The Reclaimer]

Also, because when The Silver Surfer first appeared in comics, he was a foe of the Fantastic 4.

Yes, but there were plans for a Silver Surfer solo movie before the first Fantastic Four movie even came out.  They certainly made the better move by introducing him in Fantastic Four, now if they spin-off they can do an origin story, use FF:RoSS as the second story, and then pick up after it.

Though I haven't seen it, here would be my main gripes:

I did see it, and I can honestly say they are unfounded gripes.

1. Jessica Alba is a horrible Invisible Woman!  Her skin is too dark to be a believable blonde, even if they were to give her blue contacts, which they didn't.

Actually they do give her blue contacts in the second one, watch a trailer, and she does quite well as the Invisible Woman.

2. Too much fucking CGI!  I know it's cool and all, but I want to see someone wearing a Silver Surfer costume.  This was also my main gripe with that awful Hulk movie.

Well they do a non CGI surfer, though he isn't very silver but with reason...and as for CGI heroes in general, you could at least try to present another safe effective way to do a streching man, a person on fire, as well as a good Silver Surfer who dosen't look like a shiny piece of toilet paper or a human wrapped in aluminum foil if you are going to complain about the technology.

3. I'm sorry, but as superheroes go, the Fantastic Four have never been anyone's favorite.��Marvel has been forcing them down the throats of readers since the 60's, but I'm willing to bet their comics are not all that high on Marvel's list of top sellers.  That's why there's four of them, because no single member has all that much appeal.  Wolverine, Spider-Man, Daredevil, the Punisher, the Hulk, Iron Man, and Captain America (I can't believe he doesn't have a movie yet this decade) are the Marvel heroes with massive worldwide appeal.

This isn't a movie gripe so much as it seems a general comic book opinion. Almost every comic fan I talk to loves Fantastic Four, actually its a favorite for many of them, and as for there being Four of them because they don't individually have as much appeal well...that is the whole damn point.  They were made to appeal as a team, not as individuals, because they were created when superheroes were mainly solo acts, they were meant to add something new to comics.  And as a team they appeal more than most single superhero hands down...I think the only hero on that list you have that I would watch over the Fantastic Four would be Spider-Man...maybe Iron Man, but that'd be it.

Oh and they have a Captain America movie in development, of course.
