I will say it looks better than the first one.  Bringing in Bloodsport is a nice touch, such an underrated Superman villain.  Some of the issues I had with the last one are still present of course but thats to be expected.

I sooooooooooo agree with that.
Will Smith is gone, so is Croc. King Shark is here... This is starting to look like something worth watching. I do love Cara Delevingne. But what they did with one of the most promising character of the first one...
I'm happy with Harley so long as Jared Leto is banned from the set. And from any DCU related movie. Ever.

Aaaaaand now I'm probably never gonna watch that snyder cut... Probably not missing anything though. I don't really like superman. Wonderwoman... I enjoyed parts of the two movies, but in the end, it was a let down.
Aquaman was funny even though I had 0 interests in a guy that talks to fishes. Cyborg is probably the titan I like the least so pass. And Bruce Affleck... Mmmh.
So yeah.

I'm quite hyped for suicide squad though.

I didn't like the first one (there were good things about it, but not enough for it to be a good movie), but since I saw the sizzle reel for this one from DCFandome, I thought it looked pretty good. My excitement is dimmed a bit after this trailer, but not much. I like GotG1, but GotG2 wasn't for me, and this feels a bit more like GotG2. Still, I'm hoping it will be pretty good.

Eh...he was in it for all of like 2 minutes near the end.    You don't like Superman as a character or Henry cavill's version?  Aquaman is way more than his ability to speak to sea life....really hate that the stupid Super Friends cartoon in the 70s put that in peoples heads.   Overall though I hate the DCEU...really just needs to reboot from the ground up.

Superman as a character. I do think Cavill was quite a good choice for him actually ^^'
I'm not American, I don't know what super friends is ^^' and I know Aquaman is also super strong, and is from Antlantis... But really, sure understanding all sea creatures can be interesting for a marine biologist, but... Not my thing.
In terms of casting, I don't have anything against Gal, Jason or any other one playing a hero. They fit, AFAIC.

Super Friends was a 70's Justice League Cartoon that kind of nerfed all the characters but especially Aquaman.  It kind of just showed him riding around on a big seahorse talking to fish and this image became ingrained in pop culture.

But think on this:  Yes Aquaman is strong, strong enough to trade blows with Superman and Wonder Woman.  He is invulnerable to a lot of damage because of his dense musculature...since he survives the depths of the ocean.  Yes, he can communicate with sea life.....all sea life.  Little Fish, Great Whites, Blue Whales and all the giant sea monsters that exist in the DC universe.  They all (with few exceptions) heed his command.  Don't have to be a marine biologist to appreciate commanding a school of Sharks.  Not least of all he rules the Oceans...which of course Encompasses the majority of the Earth.  If you never read Flashpoint it shows what could happen if Atlantis declared war on the Surface.  Just a lot of Modern writers don't know what to do with him...just like Superman.  Superman has been my favorite hero since I was 4.... so 33 years.  I think Cavill is a good choice but the writing was crap.

Wow serious nerfing xD
And yeah, I agree. Still, Aquaman never was really a popular character for non readers or mainstream readers in France. You had to dive a bit into the comics madness to get to know him.
So far, I only enjoyed Red Son. Superman is too OP for me. But yeah the actor was spot on. I hated the movie because of the story telling. But what can they do when nowadays most movies are 3-4h long before cuts are made to fall in the 2h/2h30 mark. Thus creating plotholes.

I did enjoy and still like watching the 1st film. I took it for what it was, a decent adaptation made to film, and far from the worst I've witnessed. Here's hoping it will be better, and if they somehow manage an even better soundtrack... then I'd really be impressed.

That's where we differ and why I did not like the first one (or the whole DCEU)...I find them to be at best Sub Par adaptation and at worst horrible adaptations.
