The wedding at the end...

So they are all in that base, with Silver Surfer captive, in Siberia (I checked) then fighting with Doom on his stolen surfboard til they get to China. It's reasonably close, just a few thousands miles away... There they all have a punch up, and finally the Surfer rebels against Galactus, who he now has the power to destroy or something, and the confusing ending has ended.

So Reed & Sue get that wedding they were trying to have at the beginning of the movie. Strangely they manage to get the same Priest from NY, but none of their previous guests are deemed worthy of being shipped over. I guess Alicia & Frankie are there. And so is a crowd of local Japanese, in kimonos and stuff... wait, weren't the FF in China not Japan? And who are these people at their wedding, a Tokyo rent-a-crowd?

(Also, Reed... I know you love her, but did you not see what a ball-busting, controlling, violent bitch she was to you BEFORE you married her... after that ring is on her finger it's going to get a lot worse. Poor guy.)

I expect because Japan was a much friendlier government to manage the red tape to getting married than China would be.

As for the Japanese crowd, maybe they were getting married at a traditional tea house or touristy spot - like the Little White Church in Vegas - and these were the hostesses?

Maybe the minister was available on short term notice as their guests would not be?

I don't know if I'll make it, but watch how good I'll fake it

It still doesn't make sense.

1. China would have been pretty welcoming to two famous people from New York getting married in their country, after all, what's the big deal? Not like these four people are here to destroy communism.

2. Japan is a much more conservative community than you think, most of these people(civilians) barely know how to speak English, and would much rather run away from Caucasians than approaching them. (it's true)

3. Why is it that a new girlfriend of Johnny, who is a part of the army, is so free to attend their wedding while the rest of their friends and family aren't?

Didn't the last wedding end in disaster with guests nearly being killed by a runaway helicopter? If I had been a guest there, I'd "lose" the follow-up wedding invitation too.

Hmm, well my wife is Japanese and I've been there several times, so I wouldn't say that is exactly true. Yes it's conservative, but western celebrities having a wedding there wouldn't 'scare off' locals. I just don't think they would be there for no reason either.

I don't care how close or famous my soon-to-be-married friends are. I'm not flying to the other side of the planet to attend a wedding. Destination weddings are for suckers.

I guess Alicia & Frankie are there.

FRANKIE was already with them and ALICIA had to travel because she was the maid of honor.
