I'm being forced to embrace the disjointed madness emanating from DC Headquarters right now, because while Marvel have cracked the formula and landed on a consistent tone for their cinematic universe, DC have got nothing to lose. They're playing discordant, cinematic jazz. We're fully in 'no bad ideas' territory with this insane new Aquaman poster: it's the last day of school term and the kids are running the classroom now. They're all over the fucking shop, is essentially what I'm getting at.

Lots, as they say, to unpack. It's not a poster you could accuse of being too subtle. I can guarantee someone senior in the marketing department saw some less intense concepts for this picture, flew into a rage and yelled "IF WE'RE NOT FILLING THE POSTER WITH AQUATIC MAMMALS THEN WHY ARE WE EVEN MAKING AN AQUAMAN MOVIE?" at an intern.
Let's break down the seven most notable things on the poster, coveniently ignoring the other 1000 for brevity's sake.
