BvS All Things Superman and Batman: An Open Discussion - - Part 63

[Mrs. Sawyer]

I'm fine with Momoa as Aquaman. I think he can bring a huge presence to the role and make a warrior king out of the character that can stop stereotyping him.

As for the other posts in this thread:

You want to see him challenged as an actor but are perfectly fine with him being replaced....okay then...

If Cavill wanted to leave the role, I am okay with that - sure, why wouldnt I be? Maybe he feels he wants to broaden his scope when it comes to roles? But either way it really does come down to what he wants. As a Superman fan, I'm okay with whatever he decides.

That's fine. I don't take it personally if you don't like him. You just seem to contradict yourself a lot.

Memes are voluntary brain damage, short-circuiting higher thought processes with copy and paste, because these people view thinking as unpleasant homework and they'd rather copy it off the Internet. They've become a vehicle for regurgitating things they've seen before, the textual equivalent of the winter vomiting bug. And about as fun to spend time with.

As for the recent casting rumor, I like Momoa so I support this.

 

[zryson]

I think Momoa is okay, but I really want to see Aquaman like he is in the comics - so that means I want blonde hair, and the bright suit. I hope they wont be using muted tones in the film?

Its a Snyder film so the tones will be stylized like in all of his other films.

Hi Beige Lantern! I'm a huge fan of your work.

 

[zryson]

What are you hoping to see Marvolo? I want the costumes to at least look similar to what they do in the comics! I hope they ditch that whole 'lets imagine this was in a real world context' stuff.

You're guaranteed to get some badass fight scenes.

It'll be like the comics, but probably more like this version of Aquaman.

The mos suit is still obviously a superhero suit even if the movie was less saturated than people wanted and the bat suit is closer to the comics than it's ever been. I don't think realism has taken all the comics out if the costumes for this movie.

But that's not fun...

 

[Tv's Phil]

When it comes to the casting, comic fans seem to fall into two camps; "They'll be great" or "They'll be horrible".
What if they're... passable? Isn't that a likely outcome?

I rarely seem to hear people say an actor or actress was...okay or good enough. Either they're really good or they're bad.
Personally, unless someone is really, really, obviously bad, I won't really notice.
I think if the script is solid, the average movie goer is going to be fine with these casting choices.

I have zero doubts about Snyder offering some amazing fight scenes but unfortunately artistic shots/smattering of FX only goes so far. What really matters is a script which focuses upon character, not filled with one-dimensional characters like we often see in Snyder's work. Its why so many people felt the FX scenes in Man of Steel were overlong (bland/dull was a common criticism) because it wasn't balanced by the screenplay which fleshed out the development of the characters.

I appreciate that you're trying to save us all from potential doom.....


.... but, God, what a boring idea. Back to the drawing board, Kev.

That's how I feel about Momoa. I think he'll be okay.

The things is most I think that's the main mentality of most people about Momoa's casting, but some people tend to be louder than others.

That's a well balanced viewpoint that is true for every actor who isn't Channing Tatum.
