That Aquaman trailer was completely bad ass to me. I was so interested in seeing how they would make underwater scenes work and how Atlantis would look on film. While I agree there is a TON of CGI going on I thought the world looked cool. Reminds me of the first time seeing Asgard on film in Thor. I just want to see more of it.
The "I could have just peed on it" actually got a laugh out of me. I wasn't expecting that at all.
Black Manta I thought looked good.
The trailer gave me Thor, Assassins Creed (games), Gladiator, Waterworld vibes and I'm all for it.
It is definitely better than trailers for Captain Marvel, Dark Phoenix, Venom, or Shazam.
I really hope this movie is good. I want it to be good so bad. I'm starting to get burnt out on the MCU formula of films and I'm looking for something to do something different. Which is why I plan on seeing Venom this weekend because I need something different.

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. Now that we have a mention of urination in a DCEU movie, does that officially make it a companion piece to guardians of the galaxyOnly if it was "raccoon pee"

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. Black Manta's costume was my biggest concern but he looks awesome in that scene.

I did have a slight Power Rangers vibe looking at Black Manta and the other guy in the suit but nothing off putting about it.
In fact I like how they've kept his appearance close to the comics.

Damn it, now that you mention it, they now remind me of the Big Bad Beetleborgs. Not sure if that's good or bad but it's in my head now.

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). Yeah. I was guessing that either she gets together with (I'll use your name, cause it tickles me that Dr.Chase Meridian & Jango Fett are Aquaman's parents) Jango, they have lil-Aquaman (Aquababe, if you will), then there is that attack in the living room where she fights with the weapon that looks very much like what we see Arthur holding in Justice League [which may also explain why red head picked that one to give him, during JUSTICE LEAGUE), so then we get the scene on the pier where Jango is holding Aquababe while Kidman- now in her white, sparkling Atlantian gear- heads back into the ocean, then she has the blond guy and dies in a subsequent battle after having raised red-head and seen her younger son turn to such a spoiled, pompous jerk..... Or, she's already had blond dude, the leaves to either get away from him or from another villain who'll come into play at a later date, that's when she meets/is rescued by a gentle lighthouse keeper- Jango Fett- and they have Aquababe, she goes to visit the Atlantians now and then, they find out she had her half-human kid so someone follows her back, she has the fight in the living room, and she returns to Atlantis with a story about her half-human child having died, so she can keep him safe, but she dies a few years later. It seems the Atlantians, like the Amazons, don't age the way humans do. So the blond guy could very well be a good deal older than Aquaman/Arthur or he could be younger. Same for red-head chic. I'm also still very interested to see more of Dolph L's character, and how he will play into the blond dude vs. Arthur plotline.

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. I wasn't impressed with the 1st Aquaman trailer, but this 2nd trailer is much better.

Scientifically correct companion pieces would be: As us old chaps in the alma mater say: "It's not the pee that makes the raccoon stink, it's his turds." Ha! Thus, we regret to inform that the application for recognition as companion piece has been temporarily dismissed as a false equivalency.

An amusing endorsement from Mark Millar considering his earlier comments about DC characters.

Reminds me of Black Panther a bit but with Atlantis being even more impressive looking than Wakanda. Yes, Atlantis does look more impressive than Wakanda. And Aquaman won't pander to the SJWs the way that Black Panther did by constantly reminding the audience over and over and over again about how blacks have been oppressed by whites throughout history. What did you think of the Shazam trailer? When I first saw the Shazam! trailer, it reminded me of The Greatest American Hero. In The Greatest American Hero, Ralph Hinckley drives out to the desert, meets a mysterious stranger who gives him a suit that gives him superpowers, doesn't know what his superpowers are and has to figure them out while on the job, which leads to many funny moments. In the Shazam! trailer, Billy Batson rides a subway train, meets a mysterious wizard who gives him the ability to transform into a superhero, doesn't know what his superpowers are and figures them out while on the job, which looks like it'll lead to many funny moments. Even their suits are similar. The Greatest American Hero had a red suit with the "Center" symbol on it and a cape. Shazam! has a red suit with a lightning bolt on it and a cape. I would rate the trailers for the upcoming CBMs like this, from most interesting to least interesting: 1. Aquaman 2nd trailer 2. Shazam! 3. X-Men: Dark Phoenix 4. Aquaman 1st trailer 5. Captain Marvel

Only if it was "raccoon pee" NAY, from an academic classification perspective the Gunn-ification level must reach a certain consistency and depravity degree to be recognized as companion piece. Scientifically correct companion pieces would be: As us old chaps in the alma mater say: "It's not the pee that makes the raccoon stink, it's his turds." Ha! Thus, we regret to inform that the application for recognition as companion piece has been temporarily dismissed as a false equivalency. “Most would rather deny a hard truth than face it...." Unfortunately, it's just eating you up inside right now that they made a pee joke in the film in a similar vain as Guardians with turd jokes and you just can't admit to it. And I don't expect you to ever to either, but hey, live in denial, moving goal posts, that's always works. Unfortunately, your cockamamie academic perspective fails because you mentioned consistency. There's only one joke of turd/penis/nipples in a whole two hour film, for both of them. You like to exaggerate as if that's what both films are about. But hey, you like the Star Wars prequels and worship George "Stepping in Poo" Lucas, so maybe you get off on that kind of humor.

Between Venom's feces, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2's feces, and Aquaman's urine, we've actually got something more like a trilogy on our hands.

Or simply play a drinking game to cope with your anger: how many times do we hear about feces in this scene alone, you sweet turd blossom, then re-watch the movies...
