AQUAMAN 2 - December - Audiences "Walked Out" of "Boring" Test Screenings

Enjoyed the first one -- but it's been a rough year for DC movies, even the decent FLASH tanked, and this one has been hammered with reshoots and the fact Amber Heard is still there allegedly for a cut down amount of time (honestly I kind of liked her in the first one lol).
But James Wan can still 'bring it' and this one looks like more 4K eye-candy...plus more Patrick Wilson isn't a bad thing either.
And really, who cares about whether or not it's "connected to the DCU" -- this whole thing where every movie needs to be "connected" to another movie in some long running series is insipid. Try telling a decent story and making an OK standalone movie before making 10 mediocre ones.
