James Wan Teases Aquaman Underwater Talking and Justice League Gets Metallic Logo


Zack Snyder Posts Jason Momoa Aquaman Pic and… by filmjunkee

James Wan about Aquaman, which Wan is 100% focusing on now that Conjuring 2 and Lights Out are out and promoted. The question came up about how Aquman and Atlanteons are going to talk underwater.

Yeah, speech bubbles, right?! Maybe it’ll be speech bubbles. [Laughs] I never thought about that… Words come out of the bubbles. It’s brilliant! That’s a cool visual.”

“It would be very literal, yeah! No, here’s the thing I always say, if you have water in your lungs, like these characters do, there’s no air bubble. So I don’t know… I just think in my movie, I want to kind of create… I love the idea of underwater speaking but with a real sort of sonic, aquatic quality to it. So there’s this sort of aquatic, almost sonar/whale thing. Even though it’s in a human language, there’s this slight sort of underlay to it, this ping to it, which I think would be interesting for us to design from a sound design perspective. Yeah, it will be fun. Also, Zack has some ideas that he’ll be doing in Justice League.”

“Listen, I’ll be honest, in some ways, JL will be an experiment for me to see what works and what may not work as well. And then kind of go, okay… Here’s the great thing, with all these superhero movies, you watch from one movie to another, and they always sort of slightly change things along the way. You kind of have to do that to make what’s best for your film.

A new metallica Justice League logo was also released, so have fun with that.
