When I first saw the news of Aquaman's movie, I actually had no hope and no plans to watch the movie. Because the DC movies in the past few years have made me dare not watch them in the cinema. I have a habit of watching movies, that is, I don’t watch art films in the cinema, because it is actually a waste of time. Imagine a group of people watching the film on a 20-meter wide screen, quietly watching the film without waves, the years are quiet, Then listen to the snoring, is it interesting?

Although DC's superhero films can't be compared to artworks, they do have a fight in terms of dullness; it's obviously a story of heroes fighting monsters, and it has to come to life, destiny, and philosophical reflection. Too much depth weakens the superhero. their attraction. Just imagine that a group of heroes dressed in non-mainstream costumes will come to a little Socrates' meditation at every turn, which is a bit inconsistent. You can say that the slapstick of Marvel next door has no depth, but isn't the audience just trying to slapstick and relax? Wasn't it enough that Plato, Lao Zhuang and Confucius abused him in school?

So from the perspective of success, this Aquaman finally got rid of the stereotype of DC works, and heroes dressed in non-mainstream clothes can finally kill on the screen without any sense of disobedience. I think this is due to Wen Ziren, and it is also the fact that DC executives finally realized the reality after being beaten by Marvel for ten years: I wrote a soap opera, what Shakespeare epic? With this level of understanding, the success of Aquaman is actually a matter of course, because the whole story can be regarded as a water version of Thor, the same brothers fighting, the same artifact bonus, and various strange creatures appear frequently.

In fact, I would rather have a funny version of Superman in the next movie. After all, Superman has been a god-like existence for decades, not only in ability, but also a moral saint and role model. Such an object of worship is a bit reverent. After all, all kinds of great gods and pseudo-great gods in life oppress us, and we have to bow our heads and worship when we enter the movie theater. Is it annoying? Why can't I rob a bank with superpowers? It's okay to kill a few villains without breaking the law, right? Can't do anything and still want to be a king, is such a superhero tired?
