DEATH OF THE DCEU (The Irrelevancy and Disappointment of Aquaman 2) EXPLORED

  • "Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom," the final flick of the DCEU, rode into theaters on a tide of indifference, right in time for the festive season. At the US box office, the film's opening weekend wasn’t too great. It made just $38.1 million and got overshadowed by "The Color Purple" on Christmas Day. The film, not the combination of red and blue pigments.
    After just over a fortnight, "Aquaman 2" has amassed $87.5 million domestically and $187 million internationally, totalling $274.5 million globally against a production budget of $205 million. Considering additional marketing costs and the split of ticket sales, the film needs to breach the 400-500-million-dollar mark to break even. And when you compare it to the tsunami-like success that 2018’s "Aquaman" enjoyed, grossing over $1.14 billion on a smaller budget, offering a spritz of levity in a year otherwise drowned in serious comic book dramas - it's evident that the final film of the DCEU has been met with a wave of consumer indifference.
    The first dive was a fun delightful romp, thanks to Jason Momoa’s portrayal of the aquatic rebel with a world-saving cause and our first introduction to the underwater world. But the sequel is sinking under the weight of irrelevancy. Following the footsteps of three consecutive DC duds, expectations for a box office bonanza were as low on the seabed as Atlantis itself.
    Rumored disastrous test screenings, studio in-fighting and Amber Heard's controversial presence post-trial only added to the chaos. The DCEU's uncertain future loomed over the reshoots, leading to a release that felt more like a desperate hope than a confident step. After a string of disappointments for Warner Brothers, they brought in James Gunn to chart a new course for a reboot, effectively ditching the likes of Henry Cavill, Ben Affleck, Gal Gadot, Jason Mamoa, Ray Fisher, and Ezra Miller. Hence, "Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom" is more of a curtain call with the unenviable task of closing the final chapter.

      Its not just the DCEU at this point. Marvel is literally trying to introduce an entire Spider family in Madame Web. No one even knows what Venom 3 is going to bring along or if Kraven the Hunter is going to get some new tagalongs with Sony.

    The Studios saw dollar signs after the success of the MCU, and tried to play catch up, without realizing that these aren't just action figures being mashed together. The total lack of respect given to them is evident by how little weight each films holds. Although I don't care for his work, Snyder seemed to be the only one who actually liked these characters and wanted to give them gravity and depth.
    But, let's be honest here, the Marvel Universe has always been more fun, more colorful, and more cohesive, which lends itself better to film adaptation. Hell, if it wasn't for Miller, Moore and Burton's Batman, we'd still have the wonky caped crusader of yesteryear. Individually, these characters could've shined, but as a continuity, they just made each other look silly and unintelligible.

    • @seige8621
      @seige8621 Před 5 měsíci

      The colourfulness or more fun isn't what made MCU better. It's the consistency..because the colourfulness and more fun isn't helping marvel right now either. Dc should have stuck to the dark and gritty. Dc comics are hardly fun, they ooze dark tones. They should have stuck to it and proceeded with having a proper timeline of execution. Bringing a justice League out of nowhere nailed them hard!

    James Wann's insistance on keeping Amber after the trial which proved her to be a violent abuser and a liar (and ignoring a nearly 5 million signature petition) is the main cause of this movie's failure, then of course, there was the way WB treated Depp following the false alligations that started all of that mess. WB also refused to fire Ezra Miller after his string of much publicised legal troubles.

    It seems that, in hiring James Gunn to be the DC’s Kevin Feige equivalent, WB finally learned the lesson it should have known all along:
    This type of storytelling needs a creative mastermind behind it. A leader who has a vision for the universe as a whole, and isn’t just going to chase trends. In fact, if the MCU can’t course correct in the meantime, Gunn’s choices will likely set new trends that the MCU will try to chase.

    The DCEU rebooting made any and all DC films pointless. We didnt even get the major villain. They wasted 10 years.

    Also, Mamoa was terrible casting for Arthur. His defining comic role will be Lobo. He's made to play Lobo.

    Hollywood would benefit from (atleast) a ten year ban on superhero movies, reboots and remakes.

      FACTSSSSSSSSS!
      I always said it should’ve been:
      -MoS.
      -The Batman, end credit we see zods tv announcement.
      -BVS, with Diana cameo only with end credit of her getting the photo
      -WW, with an end credit of her opening the rest of the files to see the JL
      -MS2
      Then close our phase 1 with the Trinity which would be Brainiac who had a Motherbox on his ship which is now on earth sparking the events that will lead to Darkseid and JL formation

    Idk I actually liked both Aquaman movies. The DCEU movies suck, but I like Aquaman for some reason. I will say they should have nixed that diaper change scene at the beginning of the new one, since it’s kind of awkward with Amber Heard’s history.

    Snyder fan boys can cope and cry. The DCEU ends with Darksied winning and ends with a mediocre whimper.
    Now we hype for The Gunnverse ladies and gents.

    If DC/Warner Bros was smart they would hire writers from the Animation department. Also with everything being so heavy on CGI maybe grab some of the Animation directors as well as it can't be that different. Last 20 to 25 years the DC animations, tv and movies have been nailing it and a gold standard. And this is coming from a Marvel comic fan.

  • @StarShopping69

    I genuinely don't understand why people love Jason Mamoa so much outside of him being hot. Seems like a nice enough guy but he was excruciatingly cringe in Fast X(and that's saying something) and it seemed like the same issue here. You can't just show up on screen saying "hell yeah dude" and expect anyone to take you seriously.

    Aquaman 2 shouldn’t have been the last movie of the DCEU. It made more sense to place it before The Flash, in my opinion. But I suppose it’s better to pretend that the story of both Aquaman movies happen before the events of Flash and that its post-credits scene is the actual ending of the DCEU. But it’s just my viewpoint.

    I was going to go watch this, but during the trailer I watched a Terd punch a window, so I skipped it. I don't want to see a CGI Terd blame a small dog for pooping on their Significant other's side of the bed.
