Well, the past Aquaman films didn't look too good either.

I just feel bad for the people who worked on the new one. I'm sure they worked super hard on it, but compared to what Cameron did with actual water tank filming, and what Del Toro did shooting dry for wet, the trailers look terrible.

No they looked really good but they definitely weren't very good.

Nah they definitely looked awful too

I went in with no expectations this year, and being a fan of basically all the marvel movies in some aspects and the earlier DC films. I was actually legitimately mad that people still talk fondly of aquaman. Maybe I'm slightly biased as Nu52 Aquaman was basically the only comic series I read at that point but the movie was legitimately awful.
