La liga de la justicia: El trono de Atlantis

I still don't get why people actually think that Arthur Curry (Aquaman) is such a joke, these days. I mean, I just finished watching this movie and I thought he was awesome. Not to mention that his backstory is a lot more interesting to watch than seeing Batman or Spider-Man's origin stories, for the like the billionth time nowadays. We get it! It sucks that you lost your parents when you were 8 years old, Wayne and yeah we get it..."With Great Power, Comes Great Responsibility!" We've seen this like a billion times now. We already know your origin stories, now move on. But anyways, back to this movie, I do admit that this actually a nice set-up and introduction to Aquaman's character being part of the Justice League as a part-time member. But, my only issue is the forced pairing between Superman and Wonder Woman in this movie. I mean, I get that they're power-houses and all, but seriously, DC and Warner Bros.?! You're trying to make Superman and Wonder Woman's pairing feel even more out of left field than Black Widow and the Incredible Hulk in Avengers: Age of Ultron?! I don't get it. And it doesn't seem to even work a lot more in Justice League vs. Teen Titans, in my opinion.

But, aside from that, I actually enjoyed this movie. Even better than Justice League War. I highly recommend it for new-comers and Aquaman fans in general.

Great animation. No problems with voice acting. Plot wasnt super interesting but good. Not really any plot holes. Nathan Fillion is awesome. Good ending.

I enjoyed Justice League: Throne of Atlantis with its beautiful animation and often intense action, but the best thing was the origin of Aquaman.

He is half human and half Atlantian and must reconquer the throne and free his people of the strains of being hidden under the sea. But his evil half-brother Orm is all about destroying the surface world and goes to great lengths to make it. The Justice League must investigate the mysterious happenings in the Atlantic Ocean only to discover Atlantis and the threat Orm's vengeful mindset is to peace between worlds.

Even though an improvement over Justice League: War with credit to the writers making better characterizations of the league members its short running time of only 72 minutes makes the feel convoluted and at times rushed.

General Storyline: Not bad at all. Good fun. Not too serious, not too funny.

Fighting: Good fun. I have 1 problem; an Atlantean with a trident, not Aquaman, basically single-handedly defeating the rest of the individual Justice League members so quickly (their first attack anyway). I can see the intentions of making the bad guy so tough, in order to make Aquaman look better, but seriously... not very realistic (ok, in the comic book sense anyway). Fishy bad guy, on dry land and unfamiliar territory, with zero plans for defeating the world's greatest heroes... uh, no.

Shazam (I still have issues with his name NOT being Captain Marvel, but whatever): A little childish in personality. The fact that he is actually a child, this kinda makes sense, but not his usual personality, and not a great lead-in for the upcoming live-action movie(s).

Overall: A good and watchable movie.

Justice League: Throne of Atlantis, directed by Ethan Spaulding, written by Heath Corson as well as Geoff Johnson was an exciting and entertaining animated film. Though Aquaman has made many appearances in the Justice League Animated Series, this was the first time he stared in his own animated feature film that was full of Shakespearian twists.

Not too long after the events in Justice League: War, directed by Jay Oliva, Metropolis faces a new aquatic threat as the Ocean Master Orm attempts to persuade Queen Atlanna, of Atlantis, to fight the surface dwellers in an all-out war for the death of their king. Meanwhile, a young man named Author Curry, who will be later dubbed Aquaman, is thrown headfirst into the fray. After learning his true identity as a royal son of Atlantis, an Atlantian named Mera, at the request of her queen, retrieves Author so that he could fulfill his destiny as the new king of Atlantis. However, unlike Queen Atlanna's desire to use her son Author as a beacon that would bridge everlasting peace between Atlantis and the surface dwellers, Orm, also known as Author Curry's half-brother, yearns for the annihilation of the surface dwellers by using the destructive militaristic might of Atlantis. Through the aid of the Super 7, which will later be crowned the Justice League, Author Curry must accept his destiny as the future king of Atlantis and prevent a war that could destroy both worlds.

Unlike most Warner Brother DC Animated Films, Justice League: Throne of Atlantis focuses more on a monarchial power struggle which was quite refreshing as it had a classical approach. Be that as it may, there were still plenty of realistic action scenes as Author Curry and the Super 7 fight an abundance of foes. Furthermore, the animation was absolutely stunning! While some might complain about the level of graphic violence, I personally believe this level of carnage creates a convincing atmosphere which has made DC animated films more enjoyable to watch.

In the end, this animated feature film was an exceptional addition to the Justice League Animated Movie Series and will make any DC fan an enthusiast of the legendary Atlantian King, Aquaman. A definite 7.
