[@15Candles]

Now that the DCEU has officially ended, somebody somewhere in Hollywood should make a documentary of the chaotic behind the scene on the making of this crazy universe. Or make a The Disaster Artist type feature film, god knows if the movie happens and succeed, it could get an Oscar 😂😂

[@limberlad]

It would need a whole miniseries

[@nms7872]

Closest equivalent is the upcoming HBO show called The Franchise. It is a satire of making superhero movies

[@drayvnx]

I would actually like to really find out what happened behind the scenes

[@15Candles]

​​@@nms7872Oh yeah, I've heard that. It's Armando Iannucci's project right? Seems interesting, he's good at making satirical stuff. Veep, which was also his creation of poke fun at politics so that's awesome

[@zenquantum1246]

Could be like the miniseries “The Offer” about the making of the Godfather, but a series would probably be the better way to go. It’ll be well after Superman: Legacy before anything like that gets made

[@andyjryan]

Dan's DCEU story arc sounds more compelling than most of the DC film scripts!

[@15Candles]

Lol, I laughed when he said that he filed two police reports due to the reaction on the DCEU that he got 😂😂

[@cjc2]

[@Calypsotheseagodess]

Between this and the Marvels, this is the year of sequels to billion dollar movies that will go down as box office BOMBS.

[@LateCambrian]

and Shazaam 2 lol

[@MysteryMii]

@@LateCambrianBut that didn’t make a billion dollars

[@LateCambrian]

@@MysteryMii that's true, the fall is much less precipitous.

[@15Candles]

The first Captain Marvel was at its timing for Endgame which was the reason it got billions of dollars lol

[@ZachBobBob]

Sequels used to be a good bet for studios because they'd at the very least make the same amount of money as the previous instalment. It's crazy that we're going from original movies making over a billion to the sequel making a tenth of that.

[@Vulcanerd]

What I took away from this review... Dan throwing shade at his relative's home by basically saying, "I've been in worse hotel rooms before" 🤣

[@NealKlein]

This is how you review a movie: naturally, honestly, with familiarity and without ego. Thank you for giving me a reason to watch you again.

The orichalcum was Chekov's gun locked safely away, far from it's ammo, and buried in that desert prison from the movie.

[@jasonking3182]

One of the main reasons Guardians of the Galaxy was the best live action superhero movie of the year was how tight it’s plot was. The story was just the gang trying to save Rocket’s life not some massive save the universe story.

[@da-be-ju]

You seem to be forgetting why Rocket even needed saving: High Evolutionary's planet-destroying plans for reshaping life.

[@jasonking3182]

@@da-be-ju I was thinking about that, but at the same time their was no ticking clock of doom like in 2. The movie was able to have its cake and eat it too in terms of having Worlds blow up but most of the plot was character based

[@FrazerEddy]

@@jasonking3182 Well there wasn't a countdown in the first film, but there was still a plot about saving the world from total annhilation.

[@spencerfrankclayton4348]

No, that movie ruined the characters. They spend the whole movie trying to save him and repeating "We're a family" and then immediately abandon him at the end.

[@sundawg911]

I plan to watch Godzilla this weekend on Sunday on my own lol. Love seeing films by myself. We will see if I see Aquaman.

[@luxurybuzz3681]

Godzilla is easily one of the best this year

[@daizeemi]

The HIGH amount of reshoots this film got ordered with 3 different executive was the hint for me that this wont make it big. Happy if Mamoa really is getting a new character for DCU but ngl I am gonna miss him as Aquaman. Goodbye DCEU.

[@token1371]

There is no chance of WB offering Momoa to play the intergalactic bounty hunter Lobo.

[@iantracy2843]

Him as Aquaman was a sign of the failures of the DCEU from the start. He was never a good fit for the character and always the perfect fit for Lobo. When you make that much of a mistake, just draw in horny moms as Hemsworth did for Thor, then your whole production starts on the wrong foot. And both movies had that feel from the start.

[@TepidShark]

It looks like Orichalcum has ties to the real myth of Atlantis, but I mostly know it as a rare material in Final Fantasy/Kingdom Hearts

[@traceyng7640]

Very surprised to see that Momoa had a story by credit

[@zachmartin6519]

Is the last line “I am Aquaman!”?

[@brianscli9567]

SPOILERS AHEAD I looked it up. Yes, that’s the final line.

[@Limerick98]

Oricalcum? As in the mineral the orcs use to make their weapons and armor in the Elder Scrolls? Dear god, if this is the beginning of a crossover, I may never recover!

[@jadapandy]

My family and I just left the Imax theater and had FUN watching Aquaman 2! No, not as good as original, but not as bad as certain KZbinr critics are giving it. Better than past several DC and Marvel movies in recent years.

[@da-be-ju]

Agreed. Some people simply want to hate this movie and so set themselves up for a serious case of confirmation bias.

[@miragexl007]

I thought it was awful. Almost dropped out... I went in dry, with no trailer or KZbin thoughts reviews... I stopped doing that a while ago except for trailer still.. usually look awesome

[@ADurning87]

It really is weird as I've followed you all the way through your DCEU journey as well (both screen junkies and now) and I always respected your opinions. We'll see what happens to live action DC in the future ❤️🌎🙏

[@GoopieG]

It’s insane you had to file two police reports because of Snyderbros😵‍💫

[@mustafa_F_M]

1:15 Tell the story to James Gunn, on threads, he’ll probably make it into a movie sit in elsworld, and in the end of the movie we found out that we are beyond the fourth wall

[@countgeekula9143]

I rather liked the first one. It looked gorgeous, Momoa was fun, and it was packed with a lot of weirdness. So yeah, I'll go see this on the big screen.

[@AntsMovies]

You gotta tell me about the police reports!?

[@Skute]

Right ? I really rewound the video to see if I heard that right.

[@pattheplanter]

I presume they were just overenthusiastic death threats from Snyder fans.

[@aloysiusmaina2625]

I watched it yesterday. Yes, it ends the DCEU with a whimper, but it had its moments, such as you said, the Second Act with Patrick Wilson and the father-son bonding, which is important for any culture. Topo was also a delight. Unfortunately, DC has messed a wonderful 😕 opportunity.

[@MarklovesAngels]

I'm not being snarky when I say I'm seriously beginning to wonder if there's any standards or qualifications needed to be a Hollywood screen writer. Damn, between plots with holes big enough to drive a truck through and dialogue written as if English was their third language, is ANYONE capable of writing a movie script anymore or have the good ones all gone to streaming?

[@ChristopherSmithNYC]

I don't think they're able to do their jobs. Studios greenlight ideas, not scripts these days. Look at the sequel trilogy.

[@thedudeabides3138]

Jesus Murrell….ONE simple shave and you go back to looking 22….that’s just not fair, especially as there’s grey in your beard 😜. Great review as always, thank you.

[@StriderRyu7]

Damn….It’s seems they didn’t put any kind of effort for this. The duality of this project and The Marvels is very fascinating!

[@travisspazz1624]

Billion dollar movies to bombs. Yeesh.

[@15Candles]

I think at first they tried put effort in making a great movie but as soon as the reboot news went to their heads, as soon as they began doing reshoots after the reboot announcement, they're like "okay whatever, let's just get over with this. I got my paycheck, I'm getting outta here"

[@tronam]

Did you watch the review? It’s clear they put in tons of effort, but where it fails it does so spectacularly: the writing. It’s hard for any director to overcome a bad screenplay, no matter how creative they are.

[@zuriyel5368]

To think that the writers went on a strike while putting out stuff like this and The Marvels.

[@da-be-ju]

Just go see the movie and make up your own mind.

[@yerip4657]

Honestly, I laughed quite a lot, not only from the buddy dynamic but also from the salt king (the crab). The movie has a quite weak plot, but the characters are way more enjoyable than the first movie. Aside from Amber, of course

[@souviksikdar1864]

Exactly, I was hoping I wasn't alone in this.

[@pikasalsachu]

​@@souviksikdar1864 some people are afraid to say they had fun, lol. Guilty pleasure. Its not oppenheimer, but its far from boring.

[@miragexl007]

Yep. it seems that stupid/comedy goes a long way nowadays..with many. I personally almost walked out of the theater.

[@CannonKnight]

Warner Bros. scrapping its movies and taking a tax right-off seem like a stroke of genius now.

[@sirjonsmithiii992]

Good review, but wish it was different. I did not hate the first one. But i just don't care about most of the bad guys anymore. A part of me wishes the bad guys would win sometimes, just to mix it up/give real suspense.

[@spenzalii]

The Arrested Development drop was PERFECT, good man. Well played.

[@haydengarinduchesne9269]

Completely agree the main issues I had with the first movie was its damp squib of a screenplay other than that it wasn’t that bad but I’ve only seen it once and had no desire to to see it again or its sequel for that matter , I am surprised they have gone in so hard on this movie though thought it would get flash type reviews . You know not great but not terrible .

[@dogleg]

I had a feeling it wouldn't be good. Thanks for the review, Dan.

[@brucecrawford_17]

I can’t believe that the DCEU ended with that stupid mid-credits scene. 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@waywardmind]

Ouch. Well, that's too bad. Thanks again for your review, Dan! Have a great Christmas (if yuou celebrate it)!

[@vincentbatten4686]

As someone from SC, I always get on edge when someone says they came here lol. Hope you had a good time.

[@FOF275]

I'm honestly concerned for Gunn's DCU the more flops/bad films that precede it. Companies just can't keep taking losses and there's a real problem of audiences seeing DC as synonymous with bad films especially since it has already been struggling for years before Gunn even showed up

[@thedarkemissary]

Don't worry. That wouldn't be any different from the 70s and 80s. Bad comic book movies aren't a new thing.

[@agenerichuman]

​​@@thedarkemissarybad comic book movies nearly killed the subgenre once before. It's unrealistic to expect it could happen again.

[@agenerichuman]

Yeah, me too. I worry Gunn's vision will be severely hampered if movies keep bombing. They might not kill his universe outright. It might be a death by a thousand cuts, movies getting cancelled, budgets getting cut, rewrites, etc. Bad movie make studio intervention more likely.

[@FOF275]

@agenerichuman And odds are, if Gunn's first DCU film doesn't do massive numbers, they'll interfere in everything he does after

[@garbageboy8857]

Honestly, fine. I'd be way more interested in seeing him direct more movies than run a cinematic universe. Let's the cinematic universes die, and maybe artists can get back to making work that excited them instead of filling out a franchise checklist. Not that I think he'd do a bad job, I have no idea. But I know he can direct a good movie.

[@Kirbstering]

Saw this today, and somehow was let down despite having low expectations. There are a few elements which stand out, mainly Patrick Wilson and his banter with Jason Momoa. I wish that was the majority of the movie instead of a small part of the overall package. I'm really hoping Gunn is able to revive DC and bring some magic their movies need.

[@SergioGarcia-sw4rs]

I was ready to SKIP this one a long time ago. It's just was a disaster. Directors, Amber Heard, pushing the release, reshoots...thanks for heads up Dan! But most of us already knew how this movie will gonna end. And agree. DC...next please.

[@KemetNubian1]

Haven't heard many good reviews but I still want to see it and will this weekend. Thanks

[@pikasalsachu]

It is actually really a fun time

[@StaminaMC]

Beardless Murrell = basically a superhero.

[@RabbiSteve]

Nice review, Dan. Thanks for your honesty, transparency and shooting for objectivity. Why I love your channel. And thanks for sharing your journey with this franchise. And no, I’m not going. Haven’t been actually boycotting DC movies, like I have been for all Disney properties. Just haven’t been interested in anything they have done since THE BATMAN. Maybe it’s my own so-called “superhero burnout”. Or maybe it’s just that there hasn’t been much very good in the latest pictures.

[@lifedoesntimitate000]

Hah! Great review, etc., but I really just needed to comment to express my appreciation for that fantastically unexpected Arrested Development reference! Well done!

[@jonathanortega753]

What's worst Shazam Furry of the Gods or Aquaman 2? But anyway this Friday I'm going to see Poor Things on AMC Montclair Mall

[@moviefiendz]

The person who freaked out at the shark in Dan's video openings is gonna have a bad day with the shark warriors in this film

[@Story2ScreenMovieReviewPodcast]

Okay, for those who did enjoy the Flash and the DCEU, who could see the Flash being the real conclusion to the DCEU, instead of Aquaman 2? Personally, if I marathoned the DCEU, including Batman 89 and Batman Returns, I can see The Flash as the finale to this series of films. Anyone agree?

[@superryo008]

That was the original plan before covid changed everything

[@padenfrank6047]

Always glad to hear Dan do an Arrested Development reference.

[@kadosho02]

Bummer to hear how this last film turned out. Not sure about going to theaters. Xmas snowbirds and lots of chaos lately. Think I might wait for its home release instead. Loved the first film

[@MyAngrySanta]

If you loved the first film you might love this one, there 2nd Act is probably worth it. I hated the first one.

[@RoseRamblesYT]

So there is another possible world ending event? Yeah, that’s definitely something that needs to be put to rest for awhile, particularly in superhero movies. At this point it would be so refreshing to see something small scale, and yeah, just focused on character relationships. And simplify it! Simple can be great if written well.

[@santaclara6112]

Do you know of any superhero movies that have smaller stakes? I remember when watching videos of how people would rewrite Suicide Squad (2016), they often said they should have made the Joker the antagonist instead of Enchantress. Since he doesn't have supernatural powers, he would make more sense as a threat the Task Force X. Also, we could have focused on the relationships between the members of the Squad.

[@christopherscotts5797]

​@@santaclara6112 The Batman I guess. And Birds of Prey. The Ant-Man movies before Quantumania. And I don't remember if the High Evolutionary threatened the whole universe in GotG Vol 3, he just blew up the world he created and the Guardians went after him out of revenge cause he was awful. Something similar with the first Deadpool. And the whole world it's not really at stake in Homecoming In series, Hawkeye, the marvel Netflix Shows, maybe WandaVision (Wanda, Agatha and the bad agency arent threats to the whole world... At least not in that series) and... She-Hulk

[@RoseRamblesYT]

@@santaclara6112 Off the top of my head I think all three Sam Rami Spider-Man movies from the early 2000s, for sure the first one; The Amazing Spider-Man with Andrew Garfield, Spider-Man: Homecoming, Thor, Iron Man, and probably Deadpool. A couple of these movies have kinda big stakes, but I don't think any of them are world ending. For DC movies, which I haven't watched all of them, I'm fairly sure most or any Batman movies (besides Batman vs Superman) are "smaller" scale.

[@KingOfCoolness]

@@RoseRamblesYT The first Ironman ... the story centered around Tony making world threatening weapons if they fell into the wrong hands which was the first modern day version of the Ten Rings group at the time.

[@RoseRamblesYT]

@@KingOfCoolness Oh very true. It's been a long time since I've watched Iron Man, and I guess I was focused on a big strength of the movie and that is how character focused it is. Big things are happening, but still I think the main focus was the growth of Tony from start to finish.

Movie was good fun.. Great depiction Black Manta!!! Visually looked great underwater and the jokes mostly hit the mark and wasn’t too much

[@-EchoesIntoEternity-]

5:01 felt more like a Dr Evil volcano lair, even included their own Frau Farbissina shouting at the henchmen

[@edwardpritchardpemberton4998]

"Show, dont tell' is not that much of a rule. It's a tiny rule. The reason why it's a "rule" in the first place, especially in literature, is that editors or teachers didn't want you to overdo it with the "telling" part. It's like using "and" at the beginning of a sentence. You can use it, but hopefully not that much... or when you absolutely have to. There are plenty of books out there that "tell" more so than "show."

[@raymbw12]

I was so hyped to see this movie come out like any movie I have seen, so until I see it on Boxing Day in NZ, I will take your review for what's it worth - honest but hope for the best, its Christmas time with so many shows streaming there are alot of choices. but I enjoy watching movies at the big theatre it such an experience, sight and amazing sounds. Always enjoying the show, an end to 2023 and a beginning to 2024.

[@da-be-ju]

Don't watch/read reviews BEFORE seeing the movie. Simple as that.

[@HariOmRadhaKrishna]

Don't worry, "she is terrible in this movie." Thank You, Oddly reassuring.

[@johnnolan5579]

I always thought the worst DC movie ever was the first Aqua Man movie. And to think they couldn't even top it.

[@littlemiss_76]

I didn't mind the first one as it took a cheesy character and ran with it. James used nods to the Super Friends cartoon I watched as a kid. Not sure if I will see this one but if it's better than the Flash...

[@MysteryMii]

And thus ends the DCEU, not with a bang, but with a whimper.

[@boilderrik893]

It's funny to hear you say that the film got too big, because I just finished watching children of dune last night, the same day I saw aquaman 2, and it deals with the idea of possession by a "ghost" in a more character focused way that I think works much better and doesn't involve any threat to kill all life on earth

[@circamagoo]

I feel like theres something in Jason Momoa's contracts that allows him to wear his street clothes in as many scenes as possible.

[@ChristopherSmithNYC]

I think its part of his 'stupid everyman act'.

[@CJKhaos]

I enjoyed it. Not as good as the first but it was an enjoyable film. Some of the jokes fell flat buy the chemistry between Jason Mamoa and Patrick Wilson was good. This film did something right that others get wrong. They didn’t kill of the villains in the first film, and that allows them to be used again to progress the story and explore the characters in a different way.

[@whogg0521]

Ouch! I plan to still see it. Good luck in your bowl game. I am a PSU Grad…WE ARE!!

[@souviksikdar1864]

The visuals are fantastic ,action is great, rest of the stuff is just decent.

[@nfalls75]

Forget about this being the last DC project for awhile. It's just good that this will be the last superhero movie overall until Deadpool 3. The genre needs a break.

[@film-maniac]

From the clips I've seen, it looks like the 3D showings are the way to go. Even if the movie isn't great, the 3D (if done well) could be the saving grace for theatrical viewing. Of course, 3D usually looks better on home displays but Warner probably won't offer a 3D bluray. No wonder they have financial issues.

Hey Dan, I’d be curious to know what theater you saw it in, on the off chance that we were in the same theater in South Carolina.

[@Windupchronic]

Aquaman 2 and The Flash combined make me want to see Batgirl even more badly. If Zaslav thought these were good enough for theater,s maybe we shouldn’t trust his judgment. Maybe Batgirl was lowkey amazing and he just didn’t get it. I don’t know, but I really want to.

[@rizalruhizat]

I am of the mind that if this and the flash was good enough for zaslav and wb then how much worse was batgirl.

[@mikephillips1043]

Im assuming that it was probably the worst movie ever attempted to be filmed and the Flash and Aquaman werent released because they thought they were good but hoping they would make money purely on Aquaman accidentally making 1bil and Michael Keaton returning as batman. It had nothing to do with the studio believing these were good.

[@LavaLot-zi5us]

It was easier to tell the directors of batgirl to screw off, than James Wan

Hi Dan! I hope you have a Merry Christmas! I love the first Aquaman movie! It's a lot of fun to watch! I'm not watching this movie because of the actress & the rumors of unprofessionalism. There are plenty of actresses they could have been used instead. I don't think I would like something mentioned in the movie & then forgotten about though, that would've bugged me big time, even though those are spoilers. If anyone is reading this who has not seen the new Godzilla movie, I highly recommend it, & try to bring a friend with you if you can. :)

This movie and the Marvel was supposed to be released last year but Bad early reception and too much reshooting forced the two movies to be released in late 2023, and all of that didn't pay off as the two are now battling who is the most flop in the Super Hero genre this 2023.

[@chrissolace]

Honestly I’ll probably go since I’m still a fan of superhero films and just films in general. Even if the film isn’t good, I still think it’s a worthwhile experience to be able to point out the flaws and appreciate flawless films.

Its worth the spectacle and action scenes I saw it in Imax 3D, the movie is fun.

[@darkgate33]

The only bright sight of this is James Wan got his $$$ from his Aquaman movies. Now he can go back making Indie horrors, something fans really want to see

[@notefish328]

Credit really needs to go to the writer when a movie is great. They deserve the blame, also, if it’s terrible. Basically, we need much more talented writers in Hollywood.

[@user-hv1fm4ug7e]

I walked out thought the fl8bby fish market was in the movie for a few seconds. WB , make it look like ,she was almost cut out..I got my money back, only ten people were there..

[@Kindred1a1]

I think making movies that are smaller in scale and revolve over 2-3 characters is less done in superhero movies because marketing plays a huge role. A movie with a trailer that contains visually large set pieces is more easy to market and get people curious enough to buy a ticket/pay on stream.

[@fingerprints2983]

Not as good as the first film (which is one of my favourite DC films) but it's in a better half of DC franchise. Only big disappointment was, the movie was too short and I wanted to see final epic fight between Aquaman vs Necros
