It didnt do its job and make me want to see the film any more than prior to viewing, but it didnt make me want to see it any less either. DC needs a few small wins. Hopefully this and Shazam can get the ball rolling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that's because after Justice League, and some of the other announcements they've made about upcoming movies, I had all but given up on the DC Universe. Still not too optimistic, but at least Aquaman and Shazam look to be entertaining... Although I've been fooled by trailers before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
INbengalfan Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Looks good enough to try in theaters. Already looks better than Justice League. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacReady Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Uh... That looked absolutely terrible. Don't know where people see the optimism. CGI was 2012 levels. Costumes were goofy AF, and it just doesn't look good. Aquaman shouldn't be 50% angry and brooding, 50% surfer happy go lucky attitude. That just doesn't mix. It doesn't make sense. When I'm 40 there might be a solid attempt at a DC Universe that'll take about three more years to get to Aquaman. Bummer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mera and Black Mantis look laughable and what’s with this urge to give Aquaman so many cheesy one-liners? Honestly, this makes me hope Marvel uses Namor and we get the arrogant Atlantean king who wants to take over the surface world. Not Schwarzenegger with tats and glam rock hair. Yeah, I'm not a fan of his personality and haven't been since the marketing for Justice League. Hopefully he develops into the badass from the Justice League cartoon after he becomes king.

jetsfan4life51 Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Actually looks pretty good, just not looking forward to some of the cheesy one liners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last movie I saw her in was Pineapple Express. She's a dime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seminoles1 Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Early critic reactions are very solid. No reviews, but social media embargo is up from the screening early this month. Consensus is it reminds people of an 80s action/adventure movie in all of the good ways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont want to get my hopes up but im getting giddy. Hopefully Flashpoint to reboot the crappy parts of the universe and Shazam will turn out ok Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroncosFan2010 Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 I am really suprised its getting good reviews. The previews, to me, looked putrid. I am pretty bullheaded about too much CGI though so its probably just not 'for me'. Hope others like it tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
