The Life Aquatic
Today I'm posting a defense of Aquaman: The Movie, which I think only fictionally exists on the HBO show, Entourage. The text below is quoted from a movie website message board, and posted by someone smarter than you.

If you're one of the people who thinks Aquamn's only claim to fame is talking to fishes - this post is for you. You're the kind of person who has never read an Aquaman comic, so be honest with yourself, your perception of the character is based on common opinion or what you saw on Superfriends as a kid. Meaning, deep down, you know you should SHUT THE FUCK UP becuase you know nothing. Becuase you'll never read a comic I'll give you a few points so you don't look so ignorant from now on. Aquaman/Arthur Curry is the son of a man and a women from Atlantis (a mermaid just without the tail and bullshit) = interesting origin. Aquaman is the king of the underwater city of Atlantis = unique visual setting for the majority of the movie (in other words, fuck-all like Waterworld). Aquaman is a fuckin king = a king who would lead an army if necessary to protect his city. Aquaman doesn't talk to fishes dickheads - he telepathically communicates with, and can command ALL SEA LIFE. Sharks, Whales, Octupi, and even giant seashorses if the mood takes him = pretty fucking cool visuals never/rarely seen before in film. And as for the superhero stuff, Aquaman is strong as all shit, as stated earlier, has the endurance to withstand the depths of the ocean, swims fast as a muthaphukka, and carriers a big sharp as fuck trident to jam through your skull......................................now just incase you do want some credability to talk about Aquaman in the future, most of what I just posted up is actually summerised in issue #1 of Justice on sale now. Not only for the info, but for the fact that it gives some great examples of why Aquaman's costume is one of the greatest ever......................I wish we had Ain't It Cool talkbacks before the '89 Batamn film, so we could have heard you clowns talk about how gay Batman is, and would make a terrible film based on you only knowing the 60 TV show................so don't tell me how lame Aquaman is if you've never read an Aquaman comic.....suckas...................Aquaman is perfect for a film experience we've never seen before, and I hope some Warners realises this before Marvel ruin our chance by making a subpar Sub-Mariner film.............
