Aquaman 2019 trailer.

[Samtemdo8_v1legacy]

And thus the Marvelization of DC in Movie theater is complete, if Shazam looked like Deadpool, this looks like Black Panther.

black mantas helmet is ridiculously stupid looking and i absolutely love it

Eh I always thought Black Manta's helmet look way more intimdating and cooler then Mysterio from Spiderman:

 

[Neurotic Void Melody]

Cool underwater beastie battles and all that. But normal audio with speaking underwater? That is legitimately stupid. I want inaudible muted gubbling with the fish providing the subtitles on their supple bodies as they elegantly swim past. And a crab that sings a catchy reggae song.

Huh? What are you talking about? Unlike Black Panther this has two brothers vying for throne, with one brother wanting to make war on the rest of humanity, said duel taking place in an isolated kingdom with advanced technology, as people utilize unique fauna to make said war, and...

...okay, it's Black Panther. 0_0

You reminded me of a similar post you made regarding Game of Thrones:

But then again both Aquaman and Black Panther will release in the same year and their production clearly must have been worked on at the sametime so there is doubt they straight up copied Black Panther because if they did, then jeez they are the fastest makers of a movie I have ever seen.

Meh. Doesn't do anything for me

 

[Bob_McMillan]

Looks cool to me. Loving the colors, and for some reason "flying" doesn't look stupid here.

I'm just here to watch Samtemdo rage at things that look fun

 

[Palindromemordnilap_v1legacy]

I'm just wondering where Black Manta actually fits into the plot. Is Orm using him to stir things up on the surface so they'll react and he gets his justification for war? Is he just messing around to provoke a war for his own purposes? And I'm assuming this is set before Justice League?

5 fucking years of me enduring the shit talking of DC movies will do that to you.

And mind you Aquaman looks badass, but Shazam is just fucking cringe, and Titans, not what I wanted exactly, but mildly curious how they are gonna go with said direction, so I will only be watching it through youtube clips.

But really the kind of Superhero movies I want is a Kingdom Come adaption, or pretty much any comic book that had Alex Ross' art like Justice and Superman Peace on Earth.

And can we PLEASE have pure and true orchestral scores in Superhero movies already?! Whatever happened to this:

 

[Dr.Susse]

Weird nitpick but I hate it when movies use "Your brother so and so" lines.
They know who their brother is.

I understand why script writers do it, especially in trailers, but it always seems lazy to me.

Genuine question, why do you feel the need to respond to anything you perceive as criticism of DC with a random shot back at Marvel?

Because Injustice made me complete trasitioned to DC and actually bought and read Comic Books and Guardians of the Galaxy turned me away from Marvel

And I had a more longer, more postive history with DC on Film and TV then Marvel.

I feel like you missed the point of my question. The only one waging your DC vs Marvel war, is you. To build on the example here:

I make a topic saying "Guys, look at these cupcakes!"
You then go on to say you thought cupcakes were weird looking, but delicious.
Then I come back with "You think cupcakes look weird? At least they're nicely shaped! Look at muffins! those lumpy bastards!"

You had made no comparison to muffins, and still expressed an overall positive opinion, yet there I was with the put down comparison out of left field.

Because in truth I didn't think it was a criticism and I do think Black Manta's helmet is ridiculous, its a legacy of the era he came from in comic books.

The reason I brought up Mysterio because I feel both he and Black Manta are similar in terms of thier ridiculous outfits, and when comparing the two when actually looking at it, Black Manta's helmet looks way more distinct and cooler looking then Mysterio.

Look, its a ridiculous point. In universe, Black Manta is a genocidal maniac, usually doing some straight up terrible things like massive terrorist attacks, and shit. He is an intimidating character, with a goofy mask.

Mysterio, in universe is a total goof. Within the pages he resides, he is regularly treated as a ridiculous joke, by friend and foe alike.

Now I feel dirty that I engaged with your comic book fued, even if it was pointing out the comparison served no true purpose other than to take a shot at marvel.

I am already aware of Black Manta being a genocidal maniac and Mysterio being a total joke.

But really what are trying to tell me, to not make pointless shots at Marvel in a vain attempt to defend DC?

That's just me man, and I already explained to you the reason why.

Im going to let you in on a life changing secret. Liking something, doesnt mean you have to hate its competitors. Disliking something, doesnt mean you have to rag on it when no one else is discussing it.

DC can have wooed you better than Marvel, without dictating a need to constantly personify the internet cliche of nerds picking sides with comic books like they were warring nations.
