>"test screenings which caused viewers to walk out"
Test screenings are done specifically to catch things like this so there's a pretty good chance they'll remove it. Wouldn't be the first time they've done extensive reshoots for a DCEU movie. Although who knows since the universe is practically dead at this point (and there's currently an actor's / writer's strike occurring) maybe they'll just say frick it and let it happen.
What people forget is the Manta didn't straight up murder Arthur Jr., he had a conventional villain distraction/revenge plan that worked too well. The book this is from implies he expected Aquaman to save his kid and that the guilt of killing a baby fricked him and he turned those feelings around into more hatred for Aquaman.
>No one reads a comic book or watches an adventure movie to see kids being killed.
Speak for yourself homie. The hunger games was the closest a book and movie series got to be the new Harry Potter.
Technically baby death is implied explicitly with 300. I don't think you see them actually chuck a baby down. Then Superman lasering the fricking baby grapes in Man of Steel because he doesn't have dads anymore kinda counts.
>The previous leaks said the film was tonally close to Adam West/WW84.
homie DC/WB killed Micheal Keaton Batman, baby Superman and Adam west as jokes in the flash movie.
Remember when Black Manta created Blacklantis just to frick with Aquaman and accuse him of being racist. Dude has no boundary on how to frick with him.
Capeshit is for children. No one complains if they kill a baby in 'Se7en' or something for adults like that. It's less an American thing and more of a 'let's edge up our childish, infantile bullshit as much as possible to compensate for what gigantic man-babies we are' thing.
Oh, I guess it is (mostly) an American thing. Well, carry on then, you red-white-and-blue autistic fricks.
>They actually killed the kid
Goddamn, I thought you guys said they wouldn't be that faithful?
DC going with the dead baby cut or Aquaman 2.

Based Manta
>How did it feel staying on Earth while the other heroes went to fight Warworld?
>Do fish believe in God?
These two asking the hard-hitting questions.
what the frick is his problem?
He's literally moronic

>Pulling this shit in front of Martian Manhunter
Black Manta truly is the greatest villain in comics
Do these people not understand that muh edge is embarrassing?
There's nothing edgy about that, you stupid fricking homosexual.
These type of people don’t have the social cues to understand so they only got two options in life, go on a killing spree or become a writer.
redditor detected
Reddit and Cinemaphile are the same fricking thing at this point homosexual.
Calling any kind of pathos 'edgy' makes it lose its meaning.
what
, basically, Black Manta killing Aquaman's kid is a canon event with the guy,.
Is Aquaman 2 gonna be kino?
It will do better than flash and blue beetle
Will it do better than Black Adam though?
Almost certainly
I'm not so sure about that.
They won't. They don't even have the justified guts to kill off Mera instead.

I do.
>No one reads a comic book or watches an adventure movie to see kids being killed.
Speak for yourself homie. The hunger games was the closest a book and movie series got to be the new Harry Potter.
The Hunger Games is neither a (superhero) comic nor an adventure movie.
hunger games is a book/movie series for teenagers to live out their intrusive thoughts vicariously
nobody wants to see a baby murdered by a grown man in a movie about a fricking drumming octopus and his friend who lives in a van under the offramp
No one does, but why stop the author from including it?
who's going to make your movie or publish your book if you insist on including things they don't want to see or read?
are you really an author if you never get published
are you tho
ask your mom
If the author (and the editor) agree that it should be in the story, who am I to stop them?
In the end, critics and the audiences are the judges, and if they think the story is poignant as it is or not, why should I change their minds?
And if that sort of thing upsets me even if the story is good regardless, why not look for something else?
Sales say otherwise.
Source?
>Stupid Americans
>Can’t wait to see this American superhero movie.
Now just make Black manta cool to watch the entire way through and I'm sold
Capeshit is suppose to be fun. Going overly dark because of "muh edginess" is a moronic choice.
Because that worked so well for Shazam 2, Black Adam, The Flash, Wonder Woman 84, Birds of Prey, THE Suicide Squad, and Blue Beetle.
Those were just bad movies.
None of those movies you mentioned were fun. They took themselves way too seriously.
Blue Beetle and Shazam were fine
You can be dark and still be fun, I don't see why a baby getting axed means that the movie HAS to be grimdark 24/7.
I want this so badly to be true but I don't doubt WB scrambled to spare the baby somehow to appeal to casual audiences. I want my infanticide damn it
It’s the only thing hyping up aquman 2. Dead baby.
What's Black Manta's problem anyway?
Autism.
Actually Canon btw
Too much crazy and murder. Basically DC's Joker that Swims.
Well, I know what Im watching.
Welp, that's getting cut out of the final cut (if it's even real, anyway)
Something something "Flash microwaves a baby" joke.
Why WB loves killing babies? Zack Synder didn’t have the balls too kill babies in his movies.
Technically baby death is implied explicitly with 300. I don't think you see them actually chuck a baby down. Then Superman lasering the fricking baby grapes in Man of Steel because he doesn't have dads anymore kinda counts.
But I thought capeslop viewers loved abortion?
There is no fricking way.
The previous leaks said the film was tonally close to Adam West/WW84.
This does not compute.
>The previous leaks said the film was tonally close to Adam West/WW84.
homie DC/WB killed Micheal Keaton Batman, baby Superman and Adam west as jokes in the flash movie.
I never heard about the Adam West or Superman shit what
Outrage for the outrage god!
you are mentally ill and incredibly maladjusted
sorry for whatever happened during your childhood, real shame Reagan closed the asylums
I'd be shocked if that were true. I'd bet my left hand that Orm's redemption arc ends with sacrificing his own life to save the baby.
I honestly stopped caring about this movie once I learned Ben Affleck's Batman scenes were cut.
someone post Flash microwaving a baby
You guys think Aquaman will also have to cut off his hand too?
That's the most likely thing to happen out of anything. He'll cut it off to save his baby or Orm. Because brotherhood.
Remember when Black Manta created Blacklantis just to frick with Aquaman and accuse him of being racist. Dude has no boundary on how to frick with him.
holy kek sauce please
how the frick is Manta so based?
>how the frick is Manta so based?
Unironic pure hatred for his sworn enemy
Black Manta will go any length just to frick with Aquaman
All we need now is for him to weaponize his gay son by accusing Aquaman of being homophobic and not dating him
Is there an Elseworlds fusion of Thawne and Manta yet
The Black Flash? Wait a minute...
Regardless he should run with his arms outstretched to mimic a manta ray's wings (fins?).
The only comparable villain is The Monarch, who's basically incapable of being a villain for any end goal other than fricking with Dr. Venture.

>Se7en
>le sophisticated le cinema for le sophisticated le gentlesirs such as le myself
The biggest cape movie of this year features animal torture though.
GOTG 3 showed deaths not literal torture.
Well I guess 'abuse' is the better word.
Animating rocket raccoon penis. Why?
Gotg3 sucked.
Do they actually show the baby dying or just imply it with the fire? It's dramatic but not that big of a deal.
Bullshit. If Manta actually kills the kid I'll buy 10 tickets
>Black man kills a white baby
Yea this isn’t gonna go well.
Fortunately Aquaman is Polynesian in this universe
>the movie is actual comic accurate for once
>casuals hate it
>Hollywood does something comic-accurate for escape capeshit
>it involves dead kids
Aquaman 2 is a movie, it cannot kill a baby. A baby can be killed IN Aquaman 2, but Aquaman 2 itself is a stock of film incapable of murder
It was men that walked out, all the women clapped
The men were angry they don’t have babies that they could kill?
>Why kill your own child when you have schools?
Not the first time they've done it
Oh Flash, you nut!
Did he really heat vision abortion a whole bunch of fetuses or was it just DNA
The Codex shit was so convoluted
If this makes as much money as the first Aquaman and James Gunn Superman legacy flops. Is the DCU fricked?
