Aquaman Trailer Thoughts

Last but not least are my thoughts for the Aquaman trailer.

Following the events of Justice League, Arthur Curry, half-human, half-Atlantean, played by Jason Momoa, runs into Mera, daughter of King Nereus of the Xebel Tribe, played by Amber Heard, who warns him of Orm, the ruler of Atlantis, who wants to wage a war against mankind for polluting the sea.


The only way to stop him is for Arthur to unite the seven seas and take his place as King of Atlantis. But it won't be easy as he also has to confront David Kane, a ruthless treasure hunter who wants revenge on Arthur for killing his father. He does that by taking on the mantle of Black Manta.




First thing I want to point out is that I love the numerous designs that are shown through this trailer. It shows that this film has potential for great world building, like with Atlantis, the numerous species that exist throughout the seven seas, etc.


I also love the designs for the characters. Mera, especially, who I find alluring. I guess I have a thing for redheads. Understandable since yours truly is one himself.


The same goes for Black Manta, who both gives something new and respects the original design. When I first saw the Black Manta design, I thought he looked silly with his enormous shaped head, but the way he's integrated into live-action makes it work, as the head is backed up by his bulky-suit.


This trailer boosted up expectations for many fans and it advertised it perfectly. Especially with the music, which is titled "None Shall Live" from Two Steps From Hell. Aquaman makes its way to theaters on December 21, 2019. What are your thoughts? Reply in the comments below. Later.
