Mike’s so damn humble. He’s still doing Half in the Bag even after being paid 7 figures by Marvel on the reg for being a GINGANTIC SHILL! Verrry Cooool!!
man, people are so gullible. they were being sarcastic! seriously, does anyone really think Mike and Jay would need that shill money when they can easily make so much more with their super fast VCR repair company? jesus, use your brains for once, will ya!
Saw it yesterday in 4DX, so the seats were moving, there was water, wind, lightning effects and more. It was pretty spectacular but it also was like a two and a half hour long roller coster ride. At the end, my whole body hurt.
Did you guys know all of Aquaman’s hair and facial hair was CGI? No, Jason *Moana* didn’t shave. They digitally removed all his hair and then CGI’d it back. Quite remarkable actually.
Hamdon Nut the trick is to render every wrinkle differently. Just like real life no 2 wrinkles are the same. Yes it is very time consuming but well worth it when you see the end product
if i had a nickel for every time DC had to digitally alter someone's facial hair, id have two nickels. which isn't a lot but it's weird that it's happened twice
How about the reverse, when the actor is "aged up" and then NOT shown as their normal selves later? Of all the questions I had about Prometheus, that was the biggest one.
I think you guys missed Ocean Master’s actual motive. It’s not the pollution. Pollution is just the excuse. His real motive is that he wants to destroy humanity because he blames them and Aquaman for his mother’s death. That’s why he surrenders when he discovers his mother is alive.
Why wait 20 years? Why blame surface people who don't even know Atlantis existed? Why not kill the man who boned his mom and had a bastard kid? None of that makes sense even in that context
Ad revenue is high in December (the whole fourth quarter, really) and drops pretty steeply in January. Even if they would get the same number of views, a video put out in December makes more money than it would in January, so they're pumping out as many videos as possible. I would expect to see a steep drop in their release rate pretty soon.
This movie is made up of the epic signature scene from every major film ever made. It goes beyond what they say here. It's Jaws, Splash, Indy Jones, Star Wars FM, Jurassic Park, Gladiator, Avengers, Robo Cop, Avatar, Perfect Storm, Das Boot, Alien, The Kraaken, Lord of the Rings, Black Panther, Merlin, Dr Strange, 20,000 Leagues, Treasure Island, Waterworld and the Lego Movie.
I literally just realized I hadn't subscribed to RLM yet for whatever reason after having watched hours upon hours of their content, and I am flabbergasted that they haven't passed 1mill subscribers yet. Like seriously, how is that possible?
It really is. What I find weird, and thisnisnt a knock on them at all, but its funny to me that aloy of other people who said its bad are being pummelled in YT and called Marvel fanboys(and they may be I dont know thats not my call. I never liked the term fandoy or shill myself but whatever) but when RLM does it we all laugh and enjoy.
Saw it in theatres. I almost fell asleep lol Older guy took his kids to see it a row in front of me and he was very adamant about how angry he was paying for it lol Good times
They actually film at a higher framrate to sneak in a frame of rich evans into every video without anyone noticing. This way we get contitioned to love and rever rich.

If it wasn't Mike having the stroke, it would really say something about the storytelling that they couldn't even remember those characters' names, much less their relation to each other.
Did they? Because it stands to reason that she was younger than Aquaman and Kidman had been banished for 2 decades. How would she have recognized her after all that time?

I don't know if it was on purpose, but on at least 4 occasions a fight scene would start with an explosion next to two of the characters heads while they're talking, and I couldn't help myself from laughing from the 2nd time onwards.
It violates Hitchcock's doctrine on suspense vs. surprise. Surprise - Two guys have a boring conversation and five minutes later a bomb under the table goes off.

I was a bit weirded out when Mera was complaining about the humans dumping their sewage into the oceans of the Atlanteans. If only the highborn can breathe air, this means most of the population has to poop in the water, and as we know, poop floats. They can't be doing that sitting down or else it would float up into their hair. So logically thinking, Atlanteans poop while they're swimming(probably at those high speeds) in order to dodge their own poop. So either they have grand arenas, let's call them "Poopariums", constructed so their people can swim in larger circles while pooping, or everyone just poops out there in the wild and they have no toilets at all(except maybe for the highborn). I thought about this a lot as you can see. I probably have to buy the movie and watch it again as I missed some scenes while thinking about this. Anyways, not many movies make me think about how people are supposed to poop, so I guess that's.. something.
Late reply I know but I always thought of this as a kid watching lord of the rings, I suppose they CAN most likely get their trousers off but do they just do it behind a rock or bush or something? Do they poop in groups? Goonies gave me an unrealistic expectation for portraying bathroom breaks while on an adventure. It would have been a good opportunity for Sam and Frodo of maybe Legolas and gimli to do some kissing shenanigans.
Stop telling people that the comments a joke, let them bask in the false sense of superiority that comes with being right on the internet, and then we can just laugh at them. God, I need therepy
Mike didn't mention the episode of Star Trek Voyager with the water planet once during this entire review? Did he finally drink all of the Trek knowledge out of his brain?
Im a 14 year old boy and my favorite part was where in the beginning they had the villain and aquaman in nearly identical suits and then made them fight under water where the colors are washed out
i hate movies that try to explain fantasy cultures through exposition. if these cultures REALLY existed.. why would they explain their own ways to eachother?
with fantasy cultures there definitely should be more show than tell, especially when most of the CGI went into animating the visual clusterfuck that was atlantis
It's the obky scenario that ever works, bit under very specific circumstances i.e when the subject of the film is esentially exploring another culture. In this case show, don't tell is the better option.
@@peytonmac1131 that's different, but is still an excuse for exposition dump. You can show apprehension between groups through their looks/avoidance, by showing adherence to social norms, and by culminating clear distinction between areas. There's so much you cam glean from visuals, and when you have a movie (a visual medium) dumping exposition is just not engaging or fun. You're having a short story picture book dropped on you instead of seeing the natural exposition on the design.
I can imagine mike in his ear going *put the star trek reference in. put the star trek reference in. put the star trek reference in. put the star trek reference in.*
I couldn't help but think it was a similar character. I already thought Pfeiffer looked ridiculous when they found her back, but, man... Kidman improvised attire was even worse! xD
Because Michelle Pfeiffer’s iconic portrayal of Selena Kyle as Catwoman in _Batman Returns (1992)_ never happened? That’s why she “showed off her Catwoman skills” on social media, upon finding her whip this March 2019??

You guys are incredible. It's amazing to watch these movies and think about the same things you guys have the ability describe. You put these things into words I feel but can't put together.
I'm kind of surprised they didn't mention that track in the review. I mean, you can't talk about bad music in the movie and not mention the Pitbull song
Like that BP tweet about "take your climate pledge today!" and one guy pledging not to spill tens of millions of barrels of oil into the Gulf of Mexico
I'm glad they brought back the gag of the hero and villain resolving their issues because their mum has the same name (and a pulse). Pretty sure they were in the exact same position as well.
Me for sure. There were certain scenes that looked like paintings (the flair diving scene into the trench for example). And where I disagree with Mike and Jay is that I really enjoyed all the action scenes in this movie while in Wonder Woman for example, that last fight scene with WW and Ares was incredibly boring to me.
@@DaniloSantosVieira That was his last sighting, anyway XD Besides AVGN, what other channels has he been on? I did see him in a short film a couple years back
Miss Potter - There’s a 20 minute scene where Aqua Man uses his powers to make a fish suck his cock, all the while the fish is trying to swim away but it can’t, Aqua Man is too powerful

I thought about this a lot as you can see. I probably have to buy the movie and watch it again as I missed some scenes while thinking about this. Anyways, not many movies make me think about how people are supposed to poop, so I guess that's.. something.
Late reply I know but I always thought of this as a kid watching lord of the rings, I suppose they CAN most likely get their trousers off but do they just do it behind a rock or bush or something? Do they poop in groups? Goonies gave me an unrealistic expectation for portraying bathroom breaks while on an adventure. It would have been a good opportunity for Sam and Frodo of maybe Legolas and gimli to do some kissing shenanigans.
Poop doesn't always float.
I love this movie, I love how it embraced the camp of the material and succeeded.
It's not groundbreaking or deep, but it didn't need to be.
Better that than another dark and gritty DC movie.
"deep" Heh.
Finally I know my opinion of Aquaman
That's sad, you should try forming your own. I really enjoyed Aquaman and disagree with Mike and Jay on some points, but still like their review
So, you can't form your own opinion. Sad.
Raul Chirai it’s a joke. What’s sad is that you didn’t understand that
LKVideos you’re just like the other idiot
Stop telling people that the comments a joke, let them bask in the false sense of superiority that comes with being right on the internet, and then we can just laugh at them.
God, I need therepy
It felt kinda watered down.
This joke just feels washed out at this point.
JESUS CHRIST STOP I'M RUNNING OUT OF STOCK COMEDY PUNCH LINE SOUND EFFECTS
I was really hoping this wouldn't sink at the box office.
@@gc3k Just thinking about it is making me errrr - wet.
There probably won't be a sea-quel
Loved the fact that Jay went to preen himself, but then realised his styling was on point
This reminds me what we called the ocean in the Navy: "the big blue trashcan"
Mike didn't mention the episode of Star Trek Voyager with the water planet once during this entire review? Did he finally drink all of the Trek knowledge out of his brain?
Now I’m wondering what happened to my Voyager knowledge, because I don’t remember that episode at all.
@@ConwayFreelanceDetective S5E9 titled Thirty Days.
All wiped when Christy broke his brain
At least we got best of both worlds
Tom Paris helps water people and gets demoted for fucking things up.
Aquaman V. Bibleman - Dawn of True Cinema
Im a 14 year old boy and my favorite part was where in the beginning they had the villain and aquaman in nearly identical suits and then made them fight under water where the colors are washed out
If you really couldn't tell them apart, then you need glasses
Movies like this are like highly technical guitar solos without any emotional quality.
i hate movies that try to explain fantasy cultures through exposition.
if these cultures REALLY existed.. why would they explain their own ways to eachother?
"You probably know this because you live in the same place I do, but let me explain how our regions work"
with fantasy cultures there definitely should be more show than tell, especially when most of the CGI went into animating the visual clusterfuck that was atlantis
What if they explain their culture to someone who isn't a part of it? Should things still be shown, or can some telling be acceptable?
It's the obky scenario that ever works, bit under very specific circumstances i.e when the subject of the film is esentially exploring another culture. In this case show, don't tell is the better option.
@@peytonmac1131 that's different, but is still an excuse for exposition dump. You can show apprehension between groups through their looks/avoidance, by showing adherence to social norms, and by culminating clear distinction between areas.
There's so much you cam glean from visuals, and when you have a movie (a visual medium) dumping exposition is just not engaging or fun. You're having a short story picture book dropped on you instead of seeing the natural exposition on the design.
Jason Momoa should've been Lobo.
*mimosa
Jeffrey Dean Morgan should've been lobo. Basically a recolor of the comedian.
Low Blow? ;3
Or stay out of acting altogether
HOLY FUCK YES
"Patrick Wilson as Bible Man"
OH MY GOD THAT'S WHAT MY BRAIN WAS TRYING TO TELL ME!
You guys have almost got 1M subscribers. Come a long way since I started watching your Plinkett prequel reviews back in 2011.
Wet Wakanda.
They blessed the rains down in Africa too much. Now they're underwater.
Less embarrassingly insensitive to the achievements of real life Africa Wakanda
Wet-kanda.. if you will
FINALLY A MOVIE THAT BRINGS SOCIETY FORWARDS
Akwakanda
taking itself to seriously. did you not see the octopus playing the drums. was pretty camp
The whole movie was camp. Also, RLM's suggestions to the plot are god-awful.
i am shocked they did not mention the drum-playing octopus
The drum playing octopus is a throw back to the comics, where Aquaman had an octopus drum-playing buddy.
Little Mermaid did it better.
@@Stew91 Aqua man's suit is a throw back to mermaid man.
2:11 do you reckon every character just goes to the wee wee while talking to each other cos you know they are under water?! such a noble society right
I like how Mike called infinity war "The Thanos Movie"
I clapped when I saw water.
I remember water! Very cool!
Is this tigers jaw
*editing indulges Mike's quick Star Trek reference*
*edited by Jay Bauman*
Mike's corruption is setting in.
I can imagine mike in his ear going *put the star trek reference in. put the star trek reference in. put the star trek reference in. put the star trek reference in.*
Wasn't planning on seeing this movie but I've now watched other people watch it on a plane 5 times.
Marvel - Michelle Pfeiffer
DC - Nicole Kidman
I couldn't help but think it was a similar character. I already thought Pfeiffer looked ridiculous when they found her back, but, man... Kidman improvised attire was even worse! xD
Yeah literally the same situation.
Because Michelle Pfeiffer’s iconic portrayal of Selena Kyle as Catwoman in _Batman Returns (1992)_ never happened? That’s why she “showed off her Catwoman skills” on social media, upon finding her whip this March 2019??
@@kneau huh?
@92brunod I'm just a fangirl for Michelle Pfeiffer's portrayal of DC's Catwoman.
I can't see Aquaman without thinking of Mermaidman, and just how much better that film would be.
But it has... ACTORS!
There was a movie where Dolph gets killed by a dolphin...but it didn't happen in Aquaman, it happened at the end of Johnny Mnemonic.
What?
Thanks for the spoilers... prick
@@jacksonjennings8728 lol that movie's old as hell. If you hadn't watched it by the time you read that then you were never gonna watch it. He was sharing trivia, not being a prick.
@@papa_shu and also it fucking sucks
that was a genius dolphin though. doesnt count
You guys are incredible. It's amazing to watch these movies and think about the same things you guys have the ability describe. You put these things into words I feel but can't put together.
Am I the only one who thought the italian village scene was like that one montage in Shrek 1
Aquaman was a shallow film. I was expecting more depth.
@ Sorry, friend, I'm just a bit salty after seeing Aquaman.
I was hoping it would be....deeper
@ Can't be helped. Movie just didn't hook me.
Was it abyss-mal?
Hmmm... seems fishy to me.
And the Grammy goes to... OCEAN TO OCEAN
COAST TO COAST LA TO CHICAGO
Space Ghost Ocean To Ocean
pitbull(loudly): *WOOOOOOOOOOOO*
Lmao
I'm kind of surprised they didn't mention that track in the review. I mean, you can't talk about bad music in the movie and not mention the Pitbull song
Fun fact: Almost all the garbage in the ocean is INDUSTRIAL FISHING EQUIPMENT.
What a twist!
Like that BP tweet about "take your climate pledge today!" and one guy pledging not to spill tens of millions of barrels of oil into the Gulf of Mexico
I'm glad they brought back the gag of the hero and villain resolving their issues because their mum has the same name (and a pulse). Pretty sure they were in the exact same position as well.
Macaulay Culkin: Makes personal apperance on RLM
Jason Momoa: Has no idea what RLM is
I think we know who is the winner here
But he knows AVGN and that is a fact!!
The idea of Bible Man wanting to take over the surface world for Taco Bell is actually hilariously compelling.
Who else is a mentally deficient adult that loved the visuals lol
Me for sure. There were certain scenes that looked like paintings (the flair diving scene into the trench for example). And where I disagree with Mike and Jay is that I really enjoyed all the action scenes in this movie while in Wonder Woman for example, that last fight scene with WW and Ares was incredibly boring to me.
if by the visuals you mean Jason Momoa, then yes. the visuals.
I loved em, I was laughing the whole time.
Solyn Cassia wow, the man is more than just a looking guy. Jeez
MJ Trace wow you’re so cool
Mike's ideas for Bibleman's motivations honestly sound amazing. Conquering the surface world for Taco Bells and Steak dinners sure is worth it ;).
Yeah but were there any gooberfish?
There's always a bigger fish.
I got that reference!.... ;)
HUGE-O teeth
BIG gooberfish
Goofy Goober?
Where’s that Caulkin guy?
crashing on James' Rolfe couch
@@DaniloSantosVieira That was his last sighting, anyway XD
Besides AVGN, what other channels has he been on?
I did see him in a short film a couple years back
@Wise Jester there's a boy in the wall!
The King's Court Being loaned out to Cinemassacre.
I reckon he's home alone.
It's nice to go back in time and see these guys having an existential meltdown before 2020
I sat through the movie because I was already sitting down....that's pretty much it.
This movie is our punishment for ignoring global warming.
We've flushed so much crap to the ocean, and now they're flushing BACK.
Can’t believe they went the entire review without bringing up that crazy rape scene
What rape scene?
Miss Potter - There’s a 20 minute scene where Aqua Man uses his powers to make a fish suck his cock, all the while the fish is trying to swim away but it can’t, Aqua Man is too powerful
@@DannyChan131This is the most underrated comment in the whole video.
Omg seriously? I'll see it just for that AND fuckable Jason Momoa.
@@DannyChan131 you lie? Really?
Aquaman drowns in its own epic vision. They should have watered it down.
"Betty Boop Diaper Hygiene." It feels like this was ripped straight out of my heart...
Finally a Baywatch film with some depth.
For some reason I actually laughed out loud when Jay went "we get so swamped during the holidays" and then stared into the distance like a haunted 'nam vet.
This movie is so full of cliches that future alien historians will think it was the first movie
Great comment
Pretty sure I've spent almost the entire last 5 days listening to these guys
