The All Encompassing AQUAMAN Movie Thread - Part 3

[BaneandDawn]

This picture leaked from Aquaman footage in comic con. I just noticed something...

That must be Black Manta submarine you see above the sharks. The submarine have the form of manta ray.

 

[Boom]

Really hope this lives up to its potential. We really haven't seen anything like this before, at least on this scale.

 

[Iceman]

It’s going to feel like something very different and new so I really hope it delivers.

This has the potential to be something special. I also hope it delivers!

Is that armor supposed to be Aquaman's official costume? I like it, but after the amazing Mera outfit, I was hoping they'd give him something a bit more comic book-accurate.

A more comic-book accurate costume did make the rounds a few months ago. IIRC, the costume was Golden up top and green from waist down. It was a from a statue which had Jason's likeness. Not sure if it had anything to do the movie tho.

Honestly I am reminded of these looks tbh:

It reminds me of this except the movie version has shoulder pads.

Honestly part of me think the end result would probably be the JL Aquaman armor if anything, which still is comic book accurate if not overly detailed.(That's my problem, or interest in the costume, in some shots, the main body of the armor looks bronze, others gold while most of the posters depict his body being a greenish color with gold sides)

But I do admire how the armor takes elements of the New 52 and just added different elements of it to flesh out the template design, and make it feel more original to Aquaman's story, as opposed to simple just one of Jim Lee's hero factory designs with the New 52.

I'm still not a huge fan of those tattoos but we'll see how that comes into play.

I think those tattoos are probably a product of his father's side and upbringing more than anything. Honestly I feel like the tattoos work with the Polynesian Aquaman than not having it tbh

I was just watching some clips of the 1981 Flash Gordon and... I kinda am hoping for that kind of vibe from the soundtrack now.

FISH! Awwwwahhhhhhhh

 

[Silvermoth]

Aw, such a great soundtrack

 

[KevTravels]

Just curious, but who were the other finalists for the roles or actors that producers/Snyder had considered for Aquaman?

 

[Silvermoth]

No idea. Santiago Cabrera was in the lead when George Miller was in control.

I think Aquaman's armor in JL is pretty damn great. Makes Themyscira look like a bunch of amateur cosplayers. Atlantis got the best costume work in DCFU outside perhaps Krypton.

Love this new "crab" armor.

 

[nyyarod]

I love it too. I also can't wait to get a glimpse of Atlanna and the rest of the Atlanteans. Like what do the regular people dress like?!

While JL revs into high gear, AQUAMAN marketing is already going on quietly BTS in the form of a promo video being shown to top WB clients.

Tune in tomorrow as we plan to share some details of what that video consists of!

 

[nyyarod]

Just saw that on twitter. I'm interested to see what that consists of

Mera's wigs

What the hell is the one on the right? Female pattern baldness kicking in?

 

[OutOfBoose]

I love her fiery mane.

Also curious about the details from the shrine. There's also new footage of Mera in a JL spot.

 

[harlequinade]

What the hell is the one on the right? Female pattern baldness kicking in?

Maybe for that crown thing on her head? The wig was just attached to that?

 

[Silvermoon]

What the hell is the one on the right? Female pattern baldness kicking in?

It looks like there are coils of hair just above the 'bald' area (I imagine those are what would normally be covering the crown/top of the wig?). Maybe some type of maintenance or something is being done on that wig?

Just a guess though

The Aquaman Shrine
@AquamanShrine

A promo video being shown to top WB clients features James Wan sharing his creative vision for AQUAMAN as a revolutionary production.

It includes Jason & Amber discussing roles as Arthur & Mera as well as tons of concept & comic book art drawing heavily from DC's New 52.

No film footage yet but costume designs for Aquaman (multiple), Mera, Black Manta, Ocean Master, Atlanna & more are presented within.

 

[KRYPTON INC.]

Multiple Aqua-costumes? Yeah... We gonna get at least one "classic" inspired outfit. If we do I hope they keep the idea that it was the uniform of the Atlantean prison system.

 

[Iceman]

Ha, Jason's one looks very similar.

 

[Silvermoth]

Revolutionary?

"The atlanteans are coming!"
