I doubt. Why did you say that?
It's very obvious few people care abt the m0vie or even kn0w an Aquaman m0vie is coming to even care. And, JL failed to present the character in an interesting light to audiences. Many people didn't see the value the character added to the league or film. The character isn't interesting to say the least, the actor is just bland and basically playing Khal Drogo. There's no A lister in the cast. The storyline isn't exciting. There is n0thing new in the film. Its like black panther in the sea and pirates of the carribean without Jack Sparrow. Again, WB's track record? They are bound to screw s0mething up. I for one have lost interest in the Dceu.

Apart from Doctor Strange, which other Marvel film in the MCU had an A-list actor/actress in their first movies?

I would have agreed you only if I've not seen the reaction from the second trailer which got folks interested and was overwhelmingly positive. Plus, all other DCEU failures had one or two controversies during shooting. So far the production process for Aquaman has been smooth. And besides, what do you mean by no A-listers. Nicole Kidman, Willem Defoe anybody? Though their A list status might be questionable, but they have enough record/acting chops to draw in a crowd. Even Amber Heard was somewhat sexualized to bring in young male folks and at the same time had kickass abilities same level with Arthur which might appeal to young women/feminists. A very good marketing strategy. The film might fail critically but rest assured it's a box office success.

Exactly the point I was trying to make across in my last reply to him. Apart from that Willem Defoe and Nicole Kidman are somewhat A listers though some might argue.that.

Let's wait and see anyway... The comparison with Marvel at all times by some DC fans is now irritating.

alot of people loved the JL trailers, WW had production issues but it still did well.

Captain America : First Avenger:
Total Budget = $216m
Box office= $370

Iron Man:
Budget = $140 million
Box office = $585.2 million

Thor:
Budget = $150 million
Box office = $449.3 million

Incredible Hulk :
Budget = $150 million
Box office = $263.4 million

If you say Incredible Hulk didn't do well, what about CA:TFA?

Of all Marvels first Solo outings in the MCU, only Iron Man will be rightfully said to be most successful, and the reason the MCU was built around him... Downey Jr was a B-list actor when he took the role...

Jason Momoa is not even A-list by American standard... DC is just playing it cool bro. You should do same.

There will always be comparison.

But one comparison I cannot tolerate is Aquaman and Black Panther.

How can you Minemrys have the effrontery to call Aquaman a Black Panther underwater. huh

That is shitty comparison.

The only thing Aquaman copied from Marvel is Namor.
Arthur is just a rip off of that character, the only difference is Arthur is much more famous than Namor.

Atlantis was not invented by Marvel and it is definitely not a rip off of Wakanda.

It is based on Greek mythology.

Aquaman movie is basically a comic book adaptation.

And yes Aquaman was invented 25 years before Black Panther.

Therefore Aquaman as Black Panther underwater is wrong on so many levels.

If Black Panther movie didn't come out before Aquaman, nobody will make all that shitty comparison. undecided
Re: DC EXTENDED UNIVERSE (FILM) by BlackManta(m): 10:48pm On Nov 19, 2018
There's a 3rd trailer now.
I wasn't expecting it to come out so soon.
That was fast.

It's obvious DC took their time to write a story for Aquaman, an actual origin story just like WW.

that's exactly what most marvel fans whine about on youtube. i'm sure that's where he got the blankpanther idea from.

nah, i didn't get the idea fr0m marvel fans on youtube. Early 2018, marvel releases a film detailing a hidden civilised african nati0n, has a royalty theme of 2 siblings battling for the crown. 1 is a full bred wakandan, the other is seen as an outcast due to the machinati0ns of the thr0ne.
Late 2018, Dc releases a film abt a hidden civilised underwater nati0n, has the r0yalty theme of 2 brothers battling for the thr0ne. Our hero is n0w the outcast due to the machinati0ns of the thr0ne, the villain is the full bred atlantean. The side villain even has the name 'black manta', the previous release was titled 'black panther'. Our villain even does the wakandan salute in0rder to use his suit. He is played by a black man who has a beard that l0oks like the other black guy who played black panther.
Aside, in black panther the villain was the cocky one, in this, it's the hero that is. In Panther, so many tribes make up wakanda, in Aquaman, so many tribes make up atlantis.

Exactly. You see, WB had all these characters right fr0m the dawn of c0mic bo0ks, yet there was no m0vie abt them. N0w, a rival studio starts making films of unkn0wn characters and turning them into instant hits, and all of a sudden, WB wants to start making these films just the way its rival is doing, and we d0n't want c0mparis0ns? I want Aquaman to b0mb so WB can sit back and think again. They ruined Justice League for me, having Aquaman be a hit w0n't teach them a less0n.

It's just a coincidence, honestly. The movie plot has always been Aquaman's origin story before Black Panther was even a comic. Black Manta has always been black, has always been named Black Manta and Yahya Abdul-Mateen doesn't even bear a remote resemblance to Chadwick Boseman. If you want to jump ship to Marvel, nobody is holding you. But don't be spewing unnecessary negativity on this thread.
