Personally, from a DC point of view, I would place Supes and Batman as being their top tier characters. I would then place Flash and Green Lantern as Tier 2 type characters, with Wonder Woman falling somewhere in between a Tier 1 and Tier 2 character. Others like Aquaman, Atom, and Hawkman, I would consider as being Tier 3 characters with somebody like Green Arrow falling in between a Tier 2 and Tier 3 character. Or at least, that's my personal take on how they rank from a comic book point of view for what it's worth. Aquaman was "bottom" tier on the Big Bang Theory. Just ask Raj.

gadzukes Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 I just got back from the movie. I REALLY wanted this to be good, but Ugh, I really didn't like it very much. Bad writing. So so acting. WAAAAY too many battles. Way too long. I've been hearing a lot of praise and the box office numbers are huge so I had my hopes up, but for me.... 2.5 out of 5. I honestly can't recommend this movie.

If you pay attention, the one in last jedi to the casino world didnt actually accomplish anything and plot wise was completely irrelevant.

If you pay attention, the one in last jedi to the casino world didnt actually accomplish anything and plot wise was completely irrelevant. +1 You nailed it Kav. This movie felt like it had two or three quests. Spoiler When Aquaman finds the statue to put the bottle into the hand, Did you notice how all the statues were broken and missing arms. How convenient that the arm that needed to hold the bottle was still intact (after 1000s of years). Two other things that really bothered me were: 1) When Nicole Kidman shows up and is rescued by the Lighthouse guy, I was totally expecting her to speak in a different language. Nope, english. Why not have some light hearted moments of her learning to speak the language (or laughing like a dolphin). 2) What the heck? How do the Atlanteans swim???? What propels them thru the water? They don't even flap their feet. Edited January 9, 2019 by gadzukes kav 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seanfingh Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Plot holes you could drive a truck through and a lot of goofiness. But I walked out completely satisfied and I truly enjoyed it. It ain't your father's Aquaman, that's for sure. I would give it like a 6 out of 10, but for a DC film that feels like a stand up triple. kav 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do seem to remember that only the royals can breathe on both land and sea (is that part of the magic too... that the magic discriminates between royals and regular Atlanteans?)

kimik Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 (edited) The answer is simple. Atlanteans can swim fast due to the profits from the movie. Remember, in the end it is all about the Benjamins.......... Edited January 10, 2019 by kimik aardvark88 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broke as a Joke Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 I haven't seen Aquaman yet, but does this movie put to bed any attempt that Marvel might put out a Namor movie in the future? Would seem like blatant copying now to the mass public I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
