actually I believe in the sixties sue's look was IT as far as sexiness goes, remember she had that sort of thing going for her which was real hip st the time.
given that the film is a back to the start concept, making jessica/sue look sexy actually is consistent with the concept of the characters at the time (before the whole 'sue as mother' idea kicked in) plus i'm sure it won't hurt sales at all...
edit: oh and I thought the pic of alba/sue was hot.. you all best hold onto something:

It should also be noted that the whole cast is signed up for 2 sequels (presumably at costs conducive to studio interest) Shown in full costume are Ioan Gruffudd as Reed Richards (Mr. Fantastic), Michael Chiklis as Ben Grimm (The Thing), Jessica Alba as Sue Storm (Invisible Woman) and Chris Evans as Johnny Storm (Human Torch).
Chiklis clearly has the roughest go in the wardrobe department. But he told The Continuum that he did not want the role if The Thing was going to be a CG character.
"I felt that I would be wasted," he said. "I was assured from the get-go that that wasn't going to be the case, and I was thrilled. They would use some CGI enhancements in creating nuances.
"For an actor, it's a thrill to be involved in this type of thing. I've not done really anything of this scale. Everything I've done has been about the acting work, about character development, about people interacting. This is still very much like that, but with a huge scale of technical support around it."
Chiklis, 41, said he's been "training like a freak," for the role.
"I needed to trim down at the waist and bulk up at the chest. I'm hitting it big time."
