I do, like someone said earlier, I feel like it meets the spirit of the Fantastic Four. It's not some huge cosmic, Avengers-level event, but the Fantastic Four is known as the "first family" of Marvel, and that's their focus... family. As far as that goes, I think they do it well, and it's not just a "let's work together, team of people I don't know!" In the Avengers, all the characters seemed to work together pretty quickly and easily, setting aside their differences rather quickly. But they're not related and/or living together, the way the Four are. I think the movie showed pretty well (in a realistic but still campy way) how difficult it would really be to go through this life-changing event, and then be forced to get along. And by the end, I really feel they're more of a team, maybe even more than the (ever-rotating) Avengers members.

Well no idea who Krantz is (had to bing it) but I always recommend "Howl's Moving Castle" by Diana Wynne Jones

Well, this might not be it, but Random Harvest does include a scene of guys recuperating in a makeshift hospital in the countryside. It's not the whole movie, but still

Eh, he's desperate, and it's only one newspaper. Also, it's not slander- it's libel. ;)

They could always go the "Superman Returns" route; I believe it was a sequel to Superman II, and it ignored Superman 3 and 4. Not impossible, just doesn't happen often. The biggest problem I think would be the audience. I doubt many people, at that point in 2006, remembered or had seen Superman 3 or 4, so they were easy to ignore. A lot of people have seen the sequel trilogy.
