That's magnificent. They managed to make the most ridiculed and preposterous superhero character look cool - at least in this preview. With all the grotesque underwater stuff in there, I liked the crazy alien shooting lasers ray out of it bug-eyes best. That chase gave me more of a Predator feel than The Predator. The cinematography and CGI looked picturesque and the music was cool. Jango was in it too. Good marketing so far. Let's see.

I'm already sold. I stopped watching because I didn't want it to reveal too much. One of the few good things to come out of Justice League was its depiction of Aquaman. I like this take on the character, this film should be fun.

Wow, what makes this more exciting, Momoa's impressively terrible acting or the CGI that looks cut and paste from a Playstation 3 game trailer?

I like. Best fantasy trailer this year.
But they show too much.
This needs a fucking spoiler warning.

Now that we have a mention of urination in a DCEU movie, does that officially make it a companion piece to guardians of the galaxy volume three where we have the mention of defecation?

Well, the CGI does look prettier than Black Panther, and considering that this was apparently footage from July, that would mean that it’ll probably look better in the finished film.

The CGI in this preview looks better than the CGI in the previous trailer and there's a lot more eye candy than in Black Panther. This looks like it's going to be a fun, adventure movie for the holiday season. They've officially got my attention. Now can we raise Aquaman's IQ a few points?

Well in my world better than something else doesn't help something awful.

This is probably the next superhero movie I'm most excited for within the following year outside of Avengers 4. I don't need it to be great, I just need it to be good enough to warrant a sequel and to make Aquaman a DC flagship character.

I'm genuinely excited for this. I really like the scope of it. Obviously CGI is to be expected from underwater scenes, and it's not the greatest but it's at least visual arousing and interesting to look at. I just expect this to be a dumb fun blockbuster

First off, loved the trailer. Even with it being 5mins long, I feel like it left me wanting more and also didn't tell me too much. Really loved the music (felt a little TRON LEGACY sounding in a couple places, but that isn't a bad thing), got a chuckle out of the (intentional or not) reference for THE FIFTH ELEMENT, and I really liked what we saw of everyone around Arthur/Aquaman.
Highlights, for me, include: -Finally seeing Dolph L's character (nice hair, looks like the Atlantian version of King Fergus from BRAVE) -Seeing Nicole K wielding a trident to kick butt in her human hubby's living room (I'm guessing that's the thing that happens, that makes her leave Arthur behind and return to the sea) -Seeing the two sides lining up for an undersea battle -The joke about "show off, I could have just peed on it", because honestly- this is what a normal person might think to do rather than show off magic powers -The chase sequence -Getting the old truck away from the tidal wave -Seeing the old King of Atlantis standing before what looked like an above-ground kingdom for some kind of rally/speech/ceremony -The glimpse of a battle between guys in black mechanical gear with red pulses and the Atlantian forces -The turtle ship going through the underwater city -The intro where he talks about his parents -His dad looking at him, all proud papa, and telling him, "You're mother always knew you'd be special"
Questions I now have: -What became of Queen A/Nicole K's character? Did she go back to the sea, marry the dude she was supposed to marry in the first place by Atlantian law/custom, have her blond son, and take off again? Did she die? Was there a battle she died fighting in? Did her blond son knock her off for her crown? -How did Queen A. come to raise the red head chic, exactly? Did she know the girl's parents and take her in, or was it more like how Odin found Loki and then took the kid home? -Will Arthur's dad make it through the movie, or is he going to go the way of Uncle Ben & Bruce Wayne's parents? -Does this movie take place before/after JUSTICE LEAGUE for the bulk of the action? -Why exactly did the Atlantians and the Amazons end up at war? Will that be mentioned? -Who is the guy with the trident in the hologram? What happened to him/kingdom to send Atlantis to the bottom (I know, it has something to do with the war with the Amazons- but I want more info) and why that kingdom in the flashbacks seems gone?

leesilm something tells me that Nicole Kidman died (maybe her fight scene) and his dad Jango Fett might survive (there was a shot of them hugging familily in the first trailer).

This actually really good to me.
In comparison to the other mediocre trailers we've had recently for Shazam, Captain Marvel and X-Men Dark Phoenix this one looks much better.
Visually (and not referring to the CGI particularly) it's one of the most impressive looking superhero movies I've seen since Guardians of the Galaxy.
Surprised too because Aquaman was entirely forgettable in Justice League.

That tracking shot of the red head and the lobster men from Mars is quite impressive! The CGI has improved as well. And the classic costume was a nice touch... I just hope Arthur isn't in full on bro-dude form for the whole movie.
