Now, I will admit that I've never been much on DC, much prefer Marvel. And yes I had a couple of Aquaman comics as a kid. The story line of "Aquababy" being kidnapped by Black Mantis did happen in the comics and I had that one but I don't remember what the full story line was now.

Apologize for a new thread but I couldn't find Jack's original one.

Yeah... That's what most of them have devolved to now. Has there even been a comic book movie that anyone has taken seriously since Avengers: End Game?

The only one that I can think of is Spider-Man: No Way Home, and that was a once in a generation type of thing with all those nostalgia berries.

Posting so you are not here alone Brenda. I've never been a fan of Aquaman.

I haven't either, and I also was not a fan.

Fair enough.

I only mentioned it because it's the only comic book movie since they shut down theaters for Covid that made over a Billion like almost all of them did in the "good old days".

And even though I actually thought it had good writing and a pretty unique premise compared to most comic book movies out there, they managed to cram in 3 living Spider-Men actors spanning 2 or arguably even 3 different generations and a lot of the villains from those original casts also made appearances even.

It really was more of an Event than a Movie. This is just something that can't be done again, at least on this level and/or at least until another 20 or so years passes. The fact that there's no way that they planned for this from the beginning and it worked out as well as it did has to owe part of its success to luck on top of it.

Not trying to sell it to you. You'd have to sit through about 9 Spider-Man movies as homework to get the whole experience, and I don't imagine it would be the same for you anyway since you didn't watch the original Toby McGuire movies when they came out and have fond memories of them.

You couldn't get me to watch most of the comic book movies either.

Although they have come a long way since those cartoons.

No worries.

I know there have been a lot of Spiderman movies. But unless I am really interested yeah, not going to bother.

I remember when those came out. Think my brother might have seen the first one not sure about the others.
