www.maxim.com/.amp/entertainment/aquaman-reviews-best-dark-knight-2018-11To clarify, best DC film since The Dark Knight. That's actually surprising considering the praise Wonder Woman got. I guess Aquaman is ... better?!? One thing for sure, these boards are going to be on fire🔥🔥... LITERALLY. I can sense a shitstorm already with the likes of summers8 and DC-Fan trying to use and manipulate the "critics"/RT score against Marvel fans and vice-versa. December is going to be a fun month for these boards! Moderators better bring their A-game!

It's clear from the trailers that James Wan is a top notch director. My expectations are actually pretty high.
And while DC fanboys will certainly overreact, Marvel fanboys will do the same. Remember when Archie Sanstone trolled this board non stop after WW released?

Aquaman better than TDK? A guy who talks to fish is going to dethrone the Dark Knight. The rejected stone is now the corner stone.

Just the best DC movie since TDK. Doesn’t change the impact to the DC movie landscape if either statement is true. For example, your statement would infer that Aquaman will be better than Superman 1978 and any other DC movie that is not TDK. Still kinda bonkers... |

Also, other than WW, DC movies have been pretty damn mediocre since TDK trilogy. I do think James Wan really brought his A game for Aquaman though. |

I think that may be more of an indictment against other DC movies than how great Aquaman is. Who said it and what did he rate MoS, TDKR? Edit: This is the RT catalog of the guy who said it: www.rottentomatoes.com/critic/tom-jorgensen/moviesYeah I'll take his word for it.... |

It's clearly marketing hype and opinions. They currently say the same thing about the new Spiderman:Into Spiderverse movie.
Being best CBM of the year 2018 is not that difficult anyway (and what is "best"?), and Aqua being the "future of DC franchise" is rather questionable considering (i) the diverse multiverse approach ("Joker") and (ii) that Aquaman will likely be a dumb-fun action movie without substance. Pretty sure it will not artistically challenge Watchmen, WonderWoman et al. Thus, no reason for you or your MCU colleagues to soil your MCU panties in advance or to start call out & troublemaker treads.  |

Article specifically says "Aquaman is the best DC movie since TDK." Summers8 is unable to help himself from bringing the MCU into the discussion. This guy's bitterness is messing with his comprehension skills. |

I'm hoping it's good
The link is pretty light on info. Just basically reporting what another site said. And that site gave 3 examples of praise - one person saying it's the best since Dark Knight, one implying that it's good because its like a MCU film, and another saying it's best when it has a sense of humour. That's it. Talk about pad out a web page.
