bigg jay Posted December 16, 2015 Report Share Posted December 16, 2015 Hmm I think that dude looks more like what poseidon is portrayed as then aquaman, I guess same could be said for the little mermaids dad lol The biggest thing is the lack of the traditional orange & green color (at least in the pictures they've released so far) but if you look at the different variations of Aquaman, you can see that they've taken bits & pieces of a few outfits and put them together. http://images-cdn.moviepilot.com/image/upload/c_fill,h_500,w_1199/t_mp_quality/in-depth-analysis-of-aquaman-s-costume-reveals-interesting-details-6f09da9b-7397-4d30-bdd6-0dc511c197d7-jpeg-270437.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrostyWinnipeg Posted December 16, 2015 Report Share Posted December 16, 2015 It's early enuf and the colour may just be off like the first Apocalypse pic. Aquaman not supposed to be in BvS that much anyway? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
17to85 Posted December 17, 2015 Report Share Posted December 17, 2015 AKA Khal Drogo or new Conan (but I'm still trying to forget that movie...) Here's a link to what he'll look like as Aquaman. http://d.ibtimes.co.uk/en/full/1431042/aquaman.jpg?w=650 I legitimately don't know what to think of him... He was great as Drogo but beyond horrible in Conan... I'm hoping that the Conan movie was just a giant bag of **** all around and no one could have saved it and he's actually a decent actor. His Khal Drogo was one of the highlights of that season. bigg jay 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Unknown Poster Posted December 17, 2015 Report Share Posted December 17, 2015 JJ admits ST:ID not so good. http://www.polygon.com/2015/12/17/10411730/star-trek-into-darkness-jj-abrams-frustration This is really interesting because he's not the only one involved in making that mess who has admitted this. Some of the actors have too (including Simon Pegg who wrote the new Trek movie) and another of the producers/writers of STID (cant remember if it was Kurtzman or Lindeloff). There is a Trek forum I visit where Bob Orci (writer of Star Trek 09 and STID and was to write and direct the next one until his two stories were rejected and he was dismissed) frequents ever since the first "reboot". He reacted very negatively and unprofessionally to fans when STID came out and was widely panned. Recently, fans on the forum have asked him to respond to the film maker criticism and he's quite evasive. He's really a jerk actually. Simon Pegg also commented about the new trailer and expressed disappointment with what the "marketing" people released, feeling it sends the wrong message that its a mindless action film with no heart, message or character. He says that is not the case. Such a disconnect between the studio and the creative people. Really a shame what Star Trek has been subjected to. While still a cash cow, Lucas had driven Star Wars off the cliff creatively and you see how quickly Disney and Kathleen Kennedy righted the ship and created a grand vision for the franchise in a really short period of time since the buy out. Star Trek needs that. Desperately. Star Trek, more than Star Wars in my opinion, is tailor made for the "Cinematic Universe" treatment. It just needs the right people and the right vision. its always treated as the ugly step sister of franchises where those involved feel they have to change it or qualify their involvement (ie. yeah its Trek but a new Trek). Such a shame. The CBS/Paramount conflict is the biggest reason. Idiot studio execs that dont understand Trek and want it to be Wars is another. And JJ Abrams wasnt a great addition because he admitted to growing up as a Star Wars fan who didnt like or get Trek. And the one self-professed Trek expert/lover on the team, Orci, didnt understand Trek either. It was a mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

17to85 Posted December 17, 2015 Report Share Posted December 17, 2015 Everything Orci writes is 3 or 4 big action sequences tied loosely together with a nonsensical story full of plotholes. Guy is a hack plain and simple yet some how he is successful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnzo Posted December 17, 2015 Report Share Posted December 17, 2015 The Star Trek movies are the Toronto Maple Leafs: it doesn't matter how much they suck, people will pay money to watch them, and thus, there is no need for anything to change.

The Unknown Poster Posted December 17, 2015 Report Share Posted December 17, 2015 Orci and his trek 3 partners do have a writing credit in Beyond but Pegg has said the studio refused to let them see the rejected scripts. So it's likely due to WGA rules. It might change. There are also rules when a producer is also a writer and Orci is a producer (possibly in name only) @17 I described Orci that exact same way. To him in fact, on a Trek forum. He responded by bragging about the size of his bank account. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People will pay lots of money to see shitty movies for some reason. Good for him that he's cashed in on people's stupidity, but he's still a hack of a writer.

The Unknown Poster Posted December 21, 2015 Report Share Posted December 21, 2015 According to the site DC Comics Movie, we can expect "Batman v Superman" to be quite the hefty film indeed. Pre-orders are apparently up for Germany, and the country lists the runtime for the film as 151 minutes, which translates to two hours and 31 minutes. Read more at: https://tr.im/6Hz7b The latest trailer is a dog. And played poorly before Star Wars on Friday. Really squeezed the excitement I had for Batman V Superman. Just an awful trailer. I almost thought it was George Clooney in the cowl with the "Is she with you" line... ugh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The scene that was supposed to be "epic" when Bruce meets Clark was such awful dialogue ruined by an obnoxious Luther. The worst thing was the "is she with you" joke. Moronic.

The Unknown Poster Posted December 23, 2015 Report Share Posted December 23, 2015 I also very much dislike Eisenberg. Seems to play the same role in all films, just different degrees of volume. Appears the volume is turned way up in this one. I wont hate it til I see it. I want to love it. I love DC. But for me, Lex has to be someone with gravitas because he's an enemy combating the most powerful being in the world. One must believe that he can be a formidable foe. Gene Hackman brought that to his role. And he brought a level of talent and power to the Superman films. Who is the person in this new film that will have gravitas? So far I guess Affleck is the best actor of the leads and he's no Gene Hackman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
