Once Warner Bros announced the launch of DC Film World in 2014, through an ambitious plan to release 10 films by 2020 to match the Marvel Film World, it became criticized by the public and critics who denounced the company's attempts to achieve rapid success at the expense of content. The films, most of which were disappointed at the box office, with the exception of Battie Jenkins' Wonder Woman in 2017, are recently joined by Aquaman, which began showing in international cinemas days before Christmas and managed to break the $ 1 billion barrier.
Perhaps if the comic / comic readers knew then that these two characters would become the most successful in the series, it would seem comic in the presence of the superheroes Superman and Batman, but contrary to what was expected Aquaman film directed by James Wan an enjoyable experience artistic and visual, contributed to the expansion of the DC film world It ensured its continuity through a character that has long been ridiculed by the public for long periods, and has now become legendary with charisma with the presence of Jason Momoa, who embodied the character on the screen of the cinema; although the film carries a question mark on how it relates to previous films in the series.
Aquaman first appeared in the DC film world for Lex Luther's Bruce Wayne / Batman recordings during the 2016 Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, followed by a storm of criticism directed at Zack Snyder. Reasons include his choice of Jason Momoa.
Como fans were unpopular with the popularity of Cal Drogo in the famous series The Clash of Thrones.This audience knew Aquaman in contrast to Mumua in an orange-green uniform.However, the attack subsided after the 2017 Justice League film screening gave the audience a chance to recognize the character. Better.
James Aquan's character in Aquaman may be a development worth keeping in mind, preserving the character trajectory derived from Justice League, as well as her historical line restored from comics, which has given the character deeper dimensions, but to what extent Wan relied on stories Pictured for his film industry?
The Aquaman character from the late 1970s may have been the most famous in his memory, and may have been the one that James Wan relied mainly on to build Aquaman's character, which combines the dark side of his past with the fun and apparent irony of his actions, which later extended to the entire film, In the darkness of DC movies, which is interrupted by some comic moments.
Wan also based the story on the numbers of The Atlantis Chronicles of Peter David issued in the early nineties, which chronicled the full history of Atlantis, and then came the series Aquaman written by David in the following years, in which Aquaman had to unite the sunken Atlantic cities, which qualified him to become A warrior king with tremendous political power enabled him to rule unchallenged all the Atlantic cities, or what James Wan turned around to become Aquaman's goal during the events of the film, as he restored his king and unified the Atlantic cities to prevent the impending war between the inhabitants of the earth and the sunken Atlantis.
Aquaman's drawing on the pages of the comics was also the closest to Jason Momoa's features - which might explain Zac Snyder's choice of him - with long hair and thick beard, as well as details of his uniform and tattoos on his body.
The heroic knot may have emerged deeper during the events of the previous film Justice League, which was worked on by director Zack Snyder and developed by director Guus Weiden, showing the first meeting that brought Mira (Amber Heard) Aquaman - after Stephenwolf's attempt to seize the mother-owned box of Atlantis - we perform the last His mother abandoned him, and that knot has made him an angry and difficult inheritance but has a cynical sense; as evidenced during the rest of the film.
On the contrary, director James Wan made Aquaman's character more lively and cheerful, as well as retaining the ironic sense of the previous film, to increase the area of comedy in his film, and Wan reviewed the crisis of his hero through the scenes of his mother (Nicole Kidman), which came as an introduction to the events of the film, or scenes Hero's flashback, and sometimes dialogue, even made that node shared between the hero and his brother; each lost his mother in a different way.
The defining moment came in the hero's quest for a lost triple spear, which would enable him to take control of the ocean and regain his throne. He once gave it up - but James Wan preferred to use the famous British legend of "King Arthur and the Sword of the Rock," and he transformed his hero at the moment from Arthur Currie to Arthur the owner of Camelot.
Aquaman was a highly satisfying experience, and it has managed to balance the suspense with the dramatic plot derived mainly from comics - taking into account that it is independent from previous films - and is the most successful DC film world. The dramatic development brought by his director James Wan in Aquaman's character, opened new horizons in the DC world that ensured his survival.
