We've seen the Trinity plus Aquaman so that's 4. I'm guessing Cybeezy, Flash and GL left.
First Look at Jason Momoa as AQUAMAN

Yeah this design takes what they were going for with Capt. AquaMullet and makes it work. No doubt in part because of Momoa.

Well MOS started the DCCU with a meh instead of a bang. Let's see if the trailer can revert audiences impression like the FF reboot trailer.
You dont need to be the worlds best actor to pull of Batman. Need a competent script, look and acting skills . Affleck has the look and acting skills good enough to be Batman. Christian Bale is supposed to be a very great actor yet turned out a horrible batman performance in my opinion. Again he was probably let down by the director and the script more than anything.
This looks amazing! The clean cut look is okay but certainly not the only way to go. I've always liked the long hair version in the Justice League cartoon. This certainly feels like that but better.

I'm all for this as long as they ignore the comics as much as possible. Don't give him a hook hand at any point, or a water hand because both were dumb, everyone knows it. Aquaman fans too, they're just in denial. Just say one of his powers is the ability to control all forms of liquid (blood bending anyone?) some liquids are easier than others and that because he lives under the sea (spongebob square pants) he has super strength and crazy durability. There you go, feel free to use any variation of his origin story (because Americans love the trope of an outsider being heir to a throne of a far away place and despite not knowing shit about the politics or people of said place, that person is by far the best choice to rule and understand the people because).
Don't mention shit about talking to/psychically linked to (aka talking to) sea life.

The one I am the most curious to see in costume now is Ezra Miller as Flash.
Part of this is Snyder's insistence on shepherding both BvS and JL. But to be fair, I don't know quite where they'd stick BvS in 2015 even if it were ready in time. It's a risk to release these big movies in unorthodox windows (March for BvS, Thanksgiving for JL), but with Marvel squatting on the usual spring and summer dates, WB has no choice but to strike out and hope audiences will still head to theaters in droves in the off-seasons. The recent record-breaking successes of Q1 releases this year and the April release of Winter Soldier in 2014 would indicate that it's entirely possible.

Neat, I guess. Can't unsee Sea Drogo though.

Because the MCU is built off of quality films such as Hulk, The Incredible Hulk. Thor, and Thor The Dark Age.
The new 52 look is terrible. This version of Aquaman is better.

this is that salt i was talking about. keep it flowing my dude
With how good The Flash TV show is, he's got a lot to compete with.
None of us know this though... it could flat out suck, but, as far as I know, nothing has leaked (well I've tried avoiding those just for fear of spoilers) nor has anyone outside of WB seen the movie... so we have no idea how crammed or not crammed the movie is.
You missed the buddy comedy that was Iron Man 3.
All of which are better films than Man of Steel with one reel tied behind their backs. Hulk isn't an MCU film, though.
Tons of info has leaked, as has a version of the shooting script, and yes, it is ultra packed. In all honesty, what I read sounds like it could be pretty damn awesome. Getting Goyer out of there and bringing in the Argo guy has resulted in a much better story, at the very least. It's just a question of whether it will survive the transition through the prism of Zach Snyder to the big screen intact.
The suit can't be any worse than TV Flash. I love the show but that suit is yuck.

Truth hurts bro. No one liked water hand. Hence why Mera is a thing.
So much truth it hurts.
Thor: TDA was so damn bad. Shit was really a walking billboard for L'Oreal.
Add Iron Man 2 and 3 to the mix. People are acting as if all MCU movies are master pieces. I agree they have had more hits than misses but lets not romanticize their track record too much.

Says you. I disagree and would rather rewatch MoS than any of those movies any day of the week, unless I needed some sleep then I'd put on Thor.

Aquaman gets the JL together to stop ocean pollution!
Yup. That show is so damn fun.

I see what you're saying but honestly I don't think I can fault them.
They may not have the time to build up lesser known characters first, not with Marvel in full swing and in the middle of its arc. They got caught sleeping during phase 1. The genre isn't going anywhere but these next few years may be peak in terms of box-office.

Uhh, we all knew what Mamoa looked like before tonight, right?
I mean, maybe not necessarily what he looked like holding a trident in black-and-white, but... there's nothing spectacular about it.

Poor J'onn J'onzz.
No Martian Manhunter makes me sad.
Flashpoint Aquaman and Flashpoint Wonder Woman will be the best versions ever!

Looks gotdamn awesome. Can't wait.
Hulk is a Phase 1 movie (the second one).
I would say the best thing is do is just wait for the movie to come out before judging it... could suck, could be awesome, (probably somewhere in the middle). We've all seen scripts that sounded amazing only to flat out suck (and vice versa).

Looks exactly like Momoa dressed as Aquaman. I'm pretty indifferent about it.
