But for the most part, Arthur has displayed speed faster than torpedos

Not sure if it's dumber that you're complaining how unrealistic super powers are, or clueless that comic characters power levels vary wildly from writer to writer

the dumbest thing is people pulling random instances of when one writer went off the reservation and wrote that aquaman can dodge lightning and using that to justify all the illogical inconsistencies

apparently aquaman can travel at 10,000 feet per second underwater but isnt fast enough not to get his shit pushed in by Steppenwolf UNDERWATER

I enjoyed this a lot more than the theatrical cut, but I felt like the first half of Snyder's could have been cut down a ton to make it closer to Whedon's first hour, and we wouldn't have lost a lot. There were a lot of sweeping panoramic shots that were either completely gone in Whedon's or cut down significantly. I was actually thinking those first two hours that Whedon did a pretty good job squishing all this shit into 2 hours and not losing too much of significance. Although Whedon's decision to put that whole first scene in where Batman tries to capture a parademon is fucking dumb...he could have easily done a (vastly reduced) version of Superman's death cry and that would have been a ton better.

However, the last half of the movie is night and day between the two cuts. Whedon's is absolutely retarded, and Snyder's is pretty pretty good. Not having most of the stupid jokes and side stories about peasant families and CGI of weird tentacles alone made it better, but also the whole story and execution made sense and was interesting to watch. I will say that I actually was a little bummed that the "Do you bleed?" line wasn't in this one, because that was a great throwback to BvS (even though in that movie it was fucking retarded).

Overall, much much better. First half could have used a lot of trimming and not lost anything significant, but last half was great and I wouldn't have cut too much. I think a good 3 hour movie could be made out of this one if they wanted to. They won't, but just saying. Still, I was fairly happy watching this one (with a break at halfway though) and now I'm a tiny bit bummed that this particular timeline is probably done. The epilogue stuff wasn't terrible, but wasn't great either unless Injustice: The Movie was actually going to be a thing.

thats a slo-mo jump, chuk

what if Aquaman could move at 7k mph, but can only process information like a normal person?

a better question to ask is why can aquaman move faster than lightning putting him at 3000 miles per second on land but can only do 7000 mph underwater

its why citing one-off situations from comic books is dumb. we all have a general idea of what his powers and limitations are.

the avengers shot makes sense as 4 out of 6 are on foot, 1 on a motorcycle and one swooping in while wearing a mech suit

they try to make the same shot with batmobile and flash running at 100 mph and it looks dumb. it serves no purpose. its not even a clever nod to the avengers, its just a bad rip off

she floated down to a landing.

yes, thats called slow motion, chuk

Chukzombi said:

i see you just want to argue. well you were debunked. argue all you want. she was floating. not falling with style.

Click to expand...

you can literally see her lasso on the belt swing front to back in slow motion as she lands

besides, if she can fly, why isnt she flying when she fought Doomsday in BvS?

Chukzombi said:

looks like she was supercharged in that scene with Aries, maybe she can only fly when she maxes her powers. when her power ebbed, she floated down. floated.

what? she couldnt supercharge herself for the fight with doomsday? did she need like 10 more melee hits to fill up her power-up bar?

watch the clip

I did. I even explained it to you. You had to go fish for excuses to try and tie your bullshit together
