    God this sounds perfect for me. :-)

        Justice League:

        Had asked a few people if it was worth watching, especially since I'm not a comic book guy (I had to look up who Victor Stone was supposed to be....well, duh, I guess). The overall opinion was a shrug of the shoulders and "Meh."

        I was fully entertained by it. I wasn't blown away, by any means, and I don't know the canon of the whole JL, but very much worth watching. And unless I missed something, when was Aquaman ever a badass?? I'd say, if a person like me enjoyed it, I'd recommend it for a good popcorn movie.
        Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

            Hey now, WW has to have the aids of weapons, and Cyborg is well, The Terminator On Steroids. And Aquaman....ok, he has a trident. I guess that's passable. And Batman has no superpowers, except being rich.

                  Batman and the Flash had unique talents, but the rest were "well they're strong". I mean, I know Aquaman was some water powers, but that worked real well in a movie where he was on dry land like 99% of the time.

                  Also, DC, maybe in your movies considers scenes in daytime. It feels like BvsS and JL were permanently set at 10pm.

                    Batman Vs Superman sucked ***. I couldn't finish it.

                    And yes, the Aquaman in a scene of fire made TOTAL sense.

                      Maybe if you guys knew anything about the actual character you would know it does make sense

                      But speaking as someone who likes Justice League:

                      Aquaman > Justice League and it isnt even close.

                        They knew what they were getting when Zach Snyder was hired...

                        James Wan went the opposite direction with Aquaman... It's a very colorful, vibrant movie...

                            I had never seen Elysium before earlier today. The film was an ok afternoon killer but the only reason why I'm even mentioning it was the cool coincidence that two key characters in the movie were played by Diego Luna (Miguel Ángel Félix Gallardo in Narcos: Mexico) and Wagner Moura (Pablo Escobar in Narcos S1/2) the latter of which took me some time to figure out who he was.

                              That would require me to be a comic book nerd, so I'll pass, thanks. I prefer my soap operas to be about business.

                              I did like the Nolan Batman movies though.
