Meh. If Aquaman was on Duck Dynasty it would be perfect...I guess.

Hey come on man DC has their approach which is serious and mature. Marvel has theirs which is lighthearted and fun. Either way they both make money. It's not a competition...at least not to them. To their fans it's a bloody Civil War.

Less fun =/= more serious
Less fun =/= more mature
Unsaturated color palettes =/= more serious
Unsaturated color palettes =/= more mature

It's very clear that DC is taking a different tone and style when it comes to their movies, and it's been pretty clear that it's not as fun as Marvel's movies.

No, it is not. But it still works for DC.

Am I the only one who thinks DC should do Martian Manhunter instead of Cyborg in the DCCU?If they want Cyborg they should make a Teen Titans Movie. Which would make infinate money, just because of nostalgia.

Yes it is a competion. Dc would love their movies to make more than Marvel, thats competition.

And yes I agree with you on Martin Manhunter. I hate how Cyborg is being shoed into the justice league.

1. Well yeah, but that's more of a box office competition that's only normal for films. Fans are making it seem like a "movie quality" competition.
2. Thank god I'm not the only one.

Cyborg is for pussies. I keep hearing executive insist he's a popular character but I'm yet to meet a single person who actually gives a shit about him. He's a goddamn Robocop wannabe.

I understand racial representation and wanting diversity, but just because you have a black character doesn't mean you have a GOOD black character. But then again they de-suckified Falcon for Winter Soldier, so maybe they can spice Cyborg up.

You could have had John Stewart instead man.
I like Cyborg though. He fits nicely with the league.
Iffy on changing Aquaman though.

That's what I thought. But for some reason the Green Lantern movie is happening after Justice League Part 1 and 2. So that's a nono. Not that they can't change it. I mean Marvel just reaaranged their film slate so why can't DC?

Hey... Hey Legionmaster, guess what. DC doesn't make the films, WB does. :o
Big Shocker, I know.

But I don't get this whole dark and gritty thing unless someone brings up TDK trilogy as Man of Steel I didn't really see any of that other then it being realistic in the sense what would really happen if these godlike beings appeared in the world today, BUUUUUT that's just me. :mrgreen:

P.S. the Aquaman costume is AWESOME and it's just the version of Aquaman I wanted, the 90's one.

I think he looks pretty damn cool, and as Jahns stated in his video, Aquaman will most likely have a lot more color to him that the poster just isn't showing; kind of like that Wonder Woman picture from last year's Comic Con. He just looks like a no shit taking hardened Aquaman, that had been king for a few years, and I like that a lot.
