Aquaman.. Rrrrrmmm..
« on: Sat, 16 March 2019, 01:34:02 »
Movie was very weirdly colored.  I'm sure they did the homework, and figured out how to make everything seem underwater-y, but overall, the color cast made everything look kinda flat / fake.

Amberheard wearing wedge heels, underwater..   At first, thought it was ridiculous, But then wait wait.... Boats have RUDDERS, this totally makes sense now.. Instead of mermaid tails, they'd steer with heels, and it doesn't affect walking, because they don't really need to walk underwater. Overall, Underwater heels make alot more sense in that context than Land heels, which only goes to obstruct ease of movement.

Aquaman's Propulsion system.. Since Aquaman can't fly, it's not like Superman's ability. But visibly seeing water and bubbles move, means there's some sort of applied energy.  Maybe Microwaves ? They're emitting microwaves in a directed way such that water could be vortexed around them ??


Atlantis is too brightly lit.. How does the human world not know of it, if they've got that many lumens going.


A darker Atlantis would've had more mystique, and added gravity to the situation. The whole time they've got this war theme, and the majority of the movie they're goofy, cracking jokes, and the set straight up didn't look serious, almost makes you expect finding nemo.

That sea-monster was pretty awesome,  wish they'd got more use out of it and gave it a projectile weapon of sorts.


Overall.  Solid fundamentals..  Bad dialogue (but it is a super hero movie).. Minimalist plot (good enough).. Best DC movie yet.   

Still fall short of Ironman movies..  Yea I said it, Ironman 1,2,3 , greatest trilogy ever.

Hahahahaha.. The kissing scene between Aquaman and amberhrd was cut in several countries.. including UK and SaudiArabia.

HAHAHAHAHA...  'Murica... !!

It was cut because, she did the leg thing during the kiss scene,  Which.. u know sort of makes sense mechanically (for balance), you'd expect that PERHAPS because they're underwater.. ..   maybe that's just how underwater people kiss..

But welp,  nxt-lvl kissing was deemed inappropriate for young audiences

Sometimes i forget that i'm not on the pc, I just look at the person in front of me, my mouth not moving, and I think my thoughts, as if I've typed them out and hit enter.

Then about 5 more seconds, I snap back, and realize I'm afk..

Mhm, I'm good with faces but if I don't read a name I can't repeat the name from verbal repetition--unless I'm drunk. 

A few sips of wine and I'll tongue twist the most difficult of names without needing to consult a digital console or physical medium.

Aquaman wasn't good, or bad to me. Just seemed average. the CGI was cheesy, the storyline was typical. Nothing impressed me at all. I wouldn't see it again. DC should just stick to movies at this point..
