Current Events > Fucking Aquaman is going to outperform every other DCEU movie.

(+) Yeah! (+)

It's because they tried to make Aquaman more like Black Panther, instead of trying to ape what made Batman so good.

Is Aquaman even supposed to have super strength and super durability? I thought his only super power was to be able to speak with the water animals and use them, not to be superman that could btw also talk with the fish

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquaman

Aquaman's most widely recognized power is the telepathic ability to communicate with marine life, which he can summon from great distances. He once stated that this power more relied on encouraging and compelling the subject rather than full control, citing piranha as a species he has trouble commanding under any circumstances due to their ruthlessness and hunger. Although this power is most often and most easily used on beings that live in the sea, Aquaman has at times demonstrated the ability to affect any being that lives upon the sea (e.g., sea eagles), or even any being evolved from marine life (e.g., humans and some aliens). Per the 2011 DC continuity reboot, Aquaman's telepathy has been greatly downplayed: acknowledging that most marine life doesn't possess enough intelligence to carry a meaningful telepathic communication, Aquaman is now stated to simply add compulsions and needs in the mindset of aquatic life, compelling them to do his bidding by a subtle altering of their cerebellum.[62]

The character has a number of other superhuman powers, most of which derive from the fact that he is adapted to live and thrive in the harshest of underwater environments. He has the ability to breathe underwater and possesses a superhuman physique strong enough to withstand attacks from superhuman opponents and resist machine gun fire.[68] Aquaman frequently displays feats of Super-Atlantean (the average Atlantean can lift/press approximately 2 tons) and Superhuman strength. While not on par with Superman and Wonder Woman, he has proven capable of leaps up to 6 miles.[69] He can swim at very high speeds, capable of reaching speeds of 3,000 meters per second[68] (10,800 km [roughly 6,700 miles] per hour) and can swim up Niagara Falls.[70] He can see in near total darkness and has enhanced hearing, granting limited sonar.[2]

Although Aquaman can remain underwater indefinitely without suffering any ill effects, he grows weak if he remains on land for extended periods. However, when Batman invented Aquaman's water suit he was able to walk on land for an indefinite amount of time and was no longer vulnerable to a "dehumidifier".[2] This weakness was later removed from continuity in 2011, establishing that he grew up on land before learning of his Atlantean heritage,[71] but he still runs the risk of dying by dehydration within incredibly hostile environments.[72] AC had been bestowed an ability he never showcased before gifted unto him by an old Sea Monarch, so far one of the said proclivities granted to him was the ability of unaided flight under his own power.[73]

Before the New 52, the Trident, granted by Poseidon to the rightful ruler and protector of the seas, was indestructible and a very powerful melee weapon, able to destroy the very powerful Imperiex Probes for instance, which Aquaman wielded with unmatched skill. Apart from its power as a melee weapon, the Trident also had the power to manipulate water, fire bolts of powerful energy and act as a focus to amplify the magical power of others, most notably Tempest.[74] In the New 52, the Trident is now part of a collection of seven very powerful Atlantean magical items, forged by the first king of Atlantis who calls himself 'The Dead King'. Thought to be the most powerful weapon of the set, with the possible exception of the recently discovered seventh item, the Trident is completely indestructible and able to hurt even the most powerful of opponents, such as the evil god Darkseid, with Aquaman being the only leaguer to puncture and make him bleed out. He was also able to break the mystical barrier of Dr. Graves which was deemed indestructible at the time.

Hes not Superman but he's the tier under Superman. Can't travel to the deepest depths of the ocean and not be incredibly strong/ durable.

The only thing wrong with the DC Universe is Zack Snyder. Everything that has been successful in that Universe has not been directed by Zack Snyder. Can that man, reboot the thing, and it will be huge again.

We don't need to reboot everything. Just keep everything separate. I don't want to need to watch 90 dc movies because they're all super intertwined and all relate to each other.

If Superman shows up in the Aquaman movie, I want supes to leave his issues at home and just help Aquaman out.
