Like all other DC movies, i'll give it a shot and hope for the best.

Like anything else with Aquaman I will secretly hope this turns out to be a live action version of the "Brave and the Bold" Aquaman and hope for the best.

I LOVE the conjuring, if my girlfriend had been up to seeing the sequel I would've seen it so the fact James Wan is directing seems like there might be some hope. No Zack Snyder is a bonus, BvS was just total ass.

Conjuring 2 was better than the first. Loved it. Hopefully Wan can deliver.

I only have hope for this because of Wans ability as a storyteller

Damn dude your gurl conjure-blocked you. That shit just isn't cool. Hopefully you took revenge by banging her sister/best friend.

Revenge was me saying no to watching the new Ghostbusters film

Take her sister/best friend to see Ghostbusters.

Thats more of a rescue.

I have little faith in this, so if it's anything above awful, that will be a plus for me.

^^^Yeah, that sums up DC movies in general for me.

Kal Drogo cant carry a movie. As it stands, it seems like in Justice League he will be limited to grunts and little vocabulary, with an angry face. So basically the same as he was in Game of Thrones and the Conan remake.

Guaranteed they will get a strong supporting actress to help carry this film, like they did with Chris Pine in WW.

She was hilarious in that movie with Johnny Depp where she starred as an abused gold digger.

lol that's playing out in real time lol

Mamoa's not a bad actor; certainly good enough to pull this off.

There's a difference between being part of an ensemble and carrying a movie, which I'm not sure he can do.

He carried Conan quite well IMO, but carrying a movie is a two way street, with the audience having a huge say in who they accept.
In this case, thats not an issue, like you said.

Originally posted by riv6672

He hardly had any dialog in Conan. Mostly grunts.

Thats like saying Wall-E carried his movie as well.

It was fun...more entertaining than Ghost Rider IMO.

lol being better than Ghost Rider isn't really saying that much though.

Agree.
Simply saying it was a more enjoyable watch than GR.

Yeah, the more I think about it, Drive Angry was kind of a fun movie. Way more enjoyable than either Ghost Rider. Still, Amber Heard was the best part of the movie.

Fair enough. She's also been in some utterly lousy roles though. I remember foolishly getting talked into watching a really shit movie, called The Informers, a few years back. She did little more than lie around half naked for most of the film.

Haha

To be fair I did just remember what Amber Heard did that I didn't hate. If anyone remembers the short lived mystery show "Hidden Palms" from back in the summer of 2007.

I really enjoyed that show actually. It was a nice summer show.

Also come on Johnny how do you not get a prenup?! Even Jack Sparrow would of prenupped the shit out of Amber Heard.

Damn, Dawg, i actually recall that show, but not to the point of putting any current faces to it.
Nice catch!

I RedBox'ed it on a rainey weekend.

I thought it was ok but not great.

Saw it on tv and it was alright to me.

I like Momoa overall.

He was great in Stargate Atlantis, I thought.

I enjoyed him on 2 seasons of The Red Road.

Casting Momoa as Arthur Curry and changing what seems to be everything bar his name and (possibly) his powers.

have full faith in Aquaman as James wan is directing it. We are going to see some deep ocean chases and dark underwater entities.

If JL is anything to go by, that's a big ask.

Its all in the way you phrase things. You can get a lot across with the printed word (and yeah, you've sounded pretty whiney). I myself excel at sounding sarcastic, as an example.

You really liked it? Really? All right.

Whiney, maybe, but you try not sounding whiney after having to say the same thing over and over and over when someone takes something you care about and drags it through the dirt.

I know a few people who like the JL trailer (and I only know a few who've seen it).

I'm personally not a fan of the Barry/Flash portrayal. I also don't get why they're rushing it out before the Flash and Aquaman films, which are the very next films out. Whose demanding it so early on in the DCEU? I know the fans aren't.

There were always going to be people that liked it. Those people are just wrong, though.

Fan boys gotta be little bitches.

lol. God forbid a fan wants a good adaptation of a character. I get that most people that aren't fans really don't care. They just want a good movie.

So what happens when they do to their favourite character what they did to Aquaman? Will it still be all right then? Will they still only care about getting a "good movie" even if it's a shitty adaptation?

What have they DONE to Aquaman, though?
Really, i'm every bit the Aquaman fan you are, but i havent seen anything to make me hate this. Yet.
I'm a huge fan of Grant Gustin Flash, too, but i'm not going insane about him not getting cast in the movie.

I like Aquaman. Always have really.

He's a family man and a noble character. I like true heroes.

And I don't see what's wrong with the casting or the decisions they've made with him for the movie.

We don't even really know anything about Arthur in this other than Momoa is casted to play him.

They're severely changing his origin, which means changing the mythology that goes along with him. How is that not a bad thing?

And do you guys honestly think Momoa can carry a movie?

Momoa is awesome.

Pr just mad they didnt cast him as Aquaman...uhuh

Really? Honestly, if you think this is going to be a good movie, and that you're happy with what we've gotten so far, then cool. I'm not going to tell you not to. But if you honestly can't see WHY I'm concerned, then I don't know what to say.

Snyder's comments about the character alone should be cause for concern, imo.

I can see having concerns. Especially given DCs track record.

I cant see repeatedly posting about the ruination of the character/movie before seeing it.

This Aquaman's re-imagination is full of generic "tough guy" stereotypes. I mean how lazy is it to make Aquaman seem "badass" and not use the usual generic conventions.

Silly costumes to the rescue (for DC)!

I have no problem with the costume... the "darkness filter by Snyder" and the actress don't appeal to me.

I'd appeal her!

I think Amber Heard is one of the most beautiful women alive. My only issue with her is that I never thought she could act.

Amber Heard is hot fo so!

Not as Mera and certainly not on that pic.

Need to see more pics, but Snyder has this irresistible urge to make them as dark as possible first.

Pics usually dont do costumes justice.

she has never been in anything I like...

Good look. Very Mera like.

Hope she displays her water powers. Also, maybe this will lead to a larger role in the comics, outside the Aqua-verse.

Amber Heard is a WHITE WOMAN!?

Not too surprising. Wilson has worked with Wan before. Solid choice.

If they give it that classic old hercules wonder woman look this will be awsome

Stop colossusing.

I like James Wan, I think this will be the first good DCEU film. IMO they need to break away from Snyder.

It's aquaman. Don't count on it being good

I get it, you don't like Aquaman.

Who does?

I forgot about Wonder Woman, that actually looks ok, I'm not a huge fan of the character though. I agree regarding Superfriends, AM's comic portrayals are much different, although everyone was pretty shit on that show.

Except Grundy, he was epic, lol.

Hoping Snyder's involvement with the Wonder Woman movie is only 10% which it seems to be, Has his name for one of the producer's and also story.

as long as no talent momoa talks to fish and I see the cgi rings from the superfriends cartoon then this might be rate a 2 or 3 from me

Trust me Aquaman will be good. Especially if it crosses over with Wonder Woman

Like Spider-Man Iron Man

Jason is hella huge. Never noticed how big he is.

Aquaman is such an incredibly gay character

Jus saying that pic looks photoshopped.

The guards look like they've been superimposed, especially the guard behind Momoa.

Why does Jason Momoa have body guards, I doubt the dude is getting swarmed like The Beatles circa 1967.

This movie seems to be the one which has had the least drama/problems etc. so far. Would be rather funny if Aquaman ended up being DC's big hit.

I wouldn't complain. lol Scoring one against Aquaman haters would be a bonus too.

Just finished Darkseid War/Forever evil arcs a few days ago, and Black Manta seems like a really cool character.

He looks like he's flying underwater, not swimming.

Aquaman swims (or rides a seahorse). He can propel himself forward at great speeds sure, but he's not like Superman that has his own internal propulsion.

So either they're changing it for stylistic reasons, or someone just didn't do the research. Either way it's not how it should look.

Honest question:
Have you felt this way/groused about every difference/liberty taken with every comics character brought to the screen?

i seriously doubt they give him flight. Although, based on a scene from the teaser trailer, it looks like they might give him Mera's control over water.
