I would rather have clean-shaved, controlled and responsible Arthur. Momoa's Aquaman feels really out of character.

since momoa can't act for shit, i' wouldn't be surprised if that's all he says.

>>94110018
I see no issue

>>94110018
I'm glad he's not the 90s edge I thought he would be. He's intimidating, yet, fun at the same time.

They're giving him a gimmick other than good guy.

>>94110135
Nobody likes the character Aquaman, that's why WB changed him completely. According to twitter, it worked

>>94110215
>>94110018
Because they made everyone else mopey and they don't have Hal in this movie that had to make the second fun guy (alongside Flash) someone else.

That being said I hate it and like the above anon said Momoa can't fucking act.

>>94110230
>Nobody likes the character Aquaman
Aquaman alone sells more than the entire Inhuman royal family and Namor put together.

He looks cool and would be the kind of dude you smoke weed with because he's chill as fuck.

So your telling me you what a shitty aquaman that people make fun of him and make jokes about him

>>94110230
>Nobody likes the character Aquaman
People who never touched an Aquaman book don't like him, yeah.

>>94110135
Wasn't there a bit about Aquaman drinking and fighting over a lobster in a restaurant a time ago? doesn't seem responsible to me.

>>94110135
This. I feel the same about Superman and Batman feeling being out of character in these movies.

Why even give them the same name if they're going to be OC's with only superficial similarities?

>>94110176
This. Hammy Aqua Man harms no one.

Yeah, it's a little unimpressive, but out of all the problems I see with this movie, that's the least of it I can see. Frankly, the biggest problem is that Steppenwolf seems likely to be shit. They're teasing by not showing him full-on in any of the trailers to make it seem like he's something special, but from the toy line, the real reason seems to be because his face looks fucking stupid. I doubt he'll be able to escape the fact that he's a stopgap villain until Darkseid, and his armor just looks like Ares from Wonder Woman.

nah...its outrageous.
Im hoping for a Monkees style musical number in the middle of the film where he plays the guitar (shaped like a sea shell)

>>94110018

I'm happy we're getting boisterous Arthur, as oposed to edgy Arthur.

I'm content with this take.

>>94110018
#notmyaquaman #stopblondegenocide #backtothekhalasaraquadrogo etc...

>>94110179
Seems like a combo of 90s Edge Man and AquaHam from brave and bold.
(I liked Bronze Age Aquaman but Im cool with the other versions of him)

>>94110018

He seems pretty close to BtatB Aquaman with some of PAD's Aquaman, and I'm totally okay with that.

>>94110018
He's outrageously cool.

>>94110461
On this I agree.

"Laid Back Aquaman" is better than "Try Hard Aquaman".

Both are below "Responsible Aquaman" though.

>>94110413
Maybe the movie will have the same circunstances

>>94110018
I'm glad Aquaman's all jubilant and shit in this universe, way better than being 100% dead serious all the time as he is in other media.

>>94110135
This. I want a king, not this tryhard surfer

>>94110018
It's fine, but I hope they include some of the comic version's conflict. Like, make it so that this dudebro attitude is just on the battlefield while he's cutting loose, but with other matters, like ruling Atlantis, he's more stern and lowkey because of how much he hates it. One of the things that appealed to me about Aquaman in the nu52 was how he felt he had to be king, but all he really wanted was to live a simple life in a lighthouse with his hot redhead.

>>94110529

>Both are below "Responsible Aquaman" though.

For sure, but we might be getting that Aquaman in his own movie, seeing as that movie deals with Atlantis, whereas here is just him teaming up with a dude dressed as a bat because shit's about to go down.

>>94110280
And if you packaged Johnny Depp's feces, it'd sell more than mine, doesn't make it not shit.

>>94110018
Everyone else in the trailer was just talking. No cadence or emotion in any of their lines. I felt like I was watching some first year film students who don't know how to deliver anything with some sort of impact. I don't know how that happened with all these professionals that I know have given good performances before. At least he showed some feeling instead of reciting like a robot.

Why hasn't the Aquaman trailer been uploaded yet?

>>94110924
Did they even show one?

>>94110953
No. Just a throwaway preview.

>momoa can't act
>turning him into a bro is the easiest way to hide this AND try to sway him away from the aquaman is lame pop culture jokes

Think about it. Why do you think Gadot's WW worked so well? Because she was naive and Jenkins played to her lack of acting ability. Meanwhile, for the 12 or so lines she had in BvS, she was horrible.

>>94110018
When we first saw him in BvS I assumed we were getting a cool Polynesian/Maori warrior type thing.
Dudebro feels like a step down but until JL I'll withhold a judgement.

>>94110018
>trying to be DC's Thor

Hope Snyder's gimmick backfires

>>94110018
he is still playing the same character from stargate atlantis right, in every movie the same type of character

>>94110347
Are you retarded? Who gives a shit, probably like 90% of box office earnings come from people who have never read a comic in their life, let alone an Aquaman one.

>>94110710
Was fighter pack 2 teased yesterday.

>>94111423
There's no similarly between this guy and Thor.

>>94110018
Well I am worried now.

>>94110263
Hal is the second fun guy in JL? Every time I read a book with him part of the group, he just comes off as the straight man.

>>94111423
Thor is shit now with his normie haricut

>>94111556
That said at least he is allowed to be badass.

>>94110710
>Allow me to welcome you properly.
Good facial animation. I could actually read his lips.

>>94110230
Could I have some links to this twitter stuff?

>>94110529
This.
Could habe been better but it could have been so much fucking worse

>>94110610
True.

>>94111525
Are you fucking blind? His skin tone is a little darker, but other than that he is a carbon copy lookwise of Thor in his first solo movie

>>94111682
He has an armor and that's it. Thir was an arrogant prince shallow prince, this is an adventurer and a biker rebel trope. I know you probably only consume capeshit so for you different stereotypes are the same shit.

It's possible they're just basing him on his younger years and will make him more serious going forward. In the New 52 he was quite rowdy when he first became Aquaman and later grew into his role as king.

Woohooo!

Batman's the only character allowed to have any presence in this universe. Nobody can challenge his leadership.
Hell, that's literally why Superman had to die; otherwise people might follow him too easily instead.

>>94110018
He looks fucking dirty

>>94111586
Nah, he says "Get the hell out of my property"

>>94110135
Aquaman being kind of a loose cannon badass isn't completely out of the place, since Aquaman has had that element to his character for awhile, especially in his early days, but I do dislike that they're sort of using that as an excuse to make Aquaman into a dudebro. He should be a little less restrained, cockier, more arrogant, and more willing to use lethal force, but they could that without all the, 'WHOOO! YEAAH!" bullshit too.

>>94112760
This. Aquaman and Flash are just there to fill roles. WW the passive second in command.

>>94112760
I'm so fucking sick of Batman.

>>94110280
I like Namor better and like the old Inhumans but yeah Aquaman was always bigger. And now with Sejic on art I am buying it.

>Sejic and Momoa save Aquaman

>>94111394
watch Frontier. He was actually a producer for it. He's not a great actor, but he knows what he can do and he can do it well

and far better than gadot and look how much people are falling over eachother to praise that mediocre move

>>94111930
I am glad the film shows how high he can jump.
Lets hope they show how fast he can swim.

>>94112426
Hopefully that is the case yeah.

>>94110136
I would laugh so fucking that if that was literally all Aquaman ever said

>>94113371
It was about as good as a typical MCU movie

>>94110018

It can't get any worse than BvS and Suicide Squad, so I'm okay with it. Aquabro looks like fun.

Best aquaman ever.

>>94110135
I thought his hobo looks were because he was pissed at the world and had a bad experience with Atlantis already but later will come back to his normal look...at least that's what i'm hoping for.

>>94113763
Momoa's a cool dude.

It would be great if he acts like this while doing heroics and shit, but goes full responsible and serious whenever his kingly duties come up.

Seems like David's Arthur to me.

>>94113763
>>94114076
damn, he can make anyone looks cool

>>94110135
Mamoa works decently well for a 90s type aquaman.

Ashame that we'll never see Mamoa play Lobo though

>>94114518
>we'll never see Mamoa play Lobo

Aw, fuck anon, I don't even like Lobo that much and I now want to see that.

>>94113763
Damn, this is awesome. Momoa is pretty based desu.

>>94110018
I'm more worried than even at that, he was one of the best things about the trailer. Everything seemed so fucking boring and cliche.

>>94114518
that would be great and this is the one time I would say casting him in same universe would be ok. Actually screw shared universe, Lobo wouldn't work well in the movies. Just make an over the top Deadpool style movie for Lobo, let Momoa make a few jokes about fish and how he loves dolphins best and I'm on board

>>94110018
Name one live action aquaman actor that wasnt an aquadudebro.

>>94114995
agreed

But what if that's just how fish talk?

Like what the fuck else is a dolphin gonna say?

> 'Yeah!!!!', 'Woohooo!' etc? How do you feel about Aquadudebro?"

>>94110176

I was gonna say the same thing. I like over excited energetic Aquaman.

>>94110280

Eh, honestly I kinda buy his book for Mera and Black Manta. Kinda like how I watch Seinfeld mostly for George and Kramer. I mean, he's starting to grow on me but at first I thought he was kinda bland

>>94110018

lmao the people who came up with Norse myths were white and probably didn't even realize other skin colors existed. And even if I'm mistaken, Heimdall was still white in the comics. The Black Panther movie will be like 95% black and it's okay. There would have been nothing wrong with a 95% white Thor movie

40-60 year old TV show writers. They're infected current culture via Big Bang Theory and Family Guy.

>>94110401
This is the most obvious fucking bait and switch I've ever seen in my fucking life. Steppenwolf is not important enough to be his own big bad baddie.

Steppenwolf will distract them into fighting his army, he will go and acquire Superman's dead body, and then resurrect him to be his ultimate mind controlled warrior. Then they will have to fight superman. Then they go get Lois lane to snap him out of it (i think thats who is in the trailer talking to alfred)

>>94117996
Well there was brave and bold aquaman but he was not the same kind of joke.

I think they knew they could not just jump right to badass aquaman from joke aquaman so they made a funny aquaman to bridge the gap.

>>94110135
I expect he will evolve into that over time.

>>94118395
I was saying this from the start.
Granted I also said that about captain boomerang.

What's with his accent? Sounded like some surfer dude with a hint of southern drawl. Shouldn't he have grown up on a fishing village off the east coast?

Isn't the dudebro characterization more in line with Cyborg from TT? You know, the actual black character, not Aquaman? If they were catering to that, adapting TT Cyborg would've been better. Not sure why Jason Momoa is your example here.

>>94120473

Would a more controlled and kingly Aquaman be better? Sure, but there is absolutely nothing wrong with having an Aquaman who can have a bit of fun. I can also see him becoming more straight-laced as time goes on as he'll accept the responsibility of the king

>>94110018

Honestly then the people you talked to are dumb, I know the costumes are similar in the account that they're both grey, but the helmet design and the overall armour design are different.

Maybe that's because the Inhumans books have been terrible fucking shit since Perlmutter started his fucking push, and Sue Richards is out in space right now so there's nobody left on the planet willing to buy comic book issues of Namor being a shirtless douchebag in bulk.
