shareOh, it looks AWFUL! Pee jokes and CGI monsters and anonymous bad guys who can't hit the heroes with their ray guns, no matter how many clear shots they get.
But it might be the fun kind of awful. I'll definitely see it at some point.
I am not going to lie....I think Aquaman as a concept is stupid and hate the "Dude - bro" Aquaman in these movies....but I'm still going to go see it. Because I see all of these. I will see Venom at some point. I will see New Mutants.
But it's a D minus character in a D minus cinematic universe....so I'm not expecting anything.
I'm kind of hoping for something in the vein of "Thor: Ragnarok", where everyone involved knows that the concept they're working with is basically silly. And they have fun with it.
If the reviews are good, or other nerds say it's fun, I might even see it in a theater. Which would make it only the second DCEU film I've seen in a theater, the other one being "Wonder Woman". The rest, I wouldn't pay for.
"I'm kind of hoping for something in the vein of "Thor: Ragnarok", where everyone involved knows that the concept they're working with is basically silly. And they have fun with it."
I'll second that.
The goofy armoured sharks squaring off against big-ass sea horses(!?) had me rolling my eyes -- it's something you'd see in an animated cartoon series aimed at early grade-schoolers.
But Momoa's Aquaman-as-doofus/ frat boy kinda sells me on it. Prolly wait to catch it on VOD...
PS: Did Aquaman power up, or has he always been strong enough to lift a nuclear submarine out of the water?
That’s a tough one. For most of his career he was shown as being strong but not REALLY strong. Then in the late 80’s...they realized a guy who lives at the bottom of the sea is built to survive that. Which makes him actually pretty tough. He’s Still second fiddle to the likes of Wonder Woman, Martian Manhunter and of course Superman....but he’s still ridiculously strong and resilient.
shareNot just pee jokes but supposedly a lot of water vomiting.
