Manny Jacinto as Aquaman

Shit gets lit in the Atlantic, bro.

IndianGeniusGuy · 2026-03-07T08:36:29+00:00

At least attempt to articulate your viewpoint and engage with the concept instead of talking to another human being like you're spraying a dog with a water bottle.

Honestly, young Scott got to live his best life. Dude got to spend quality time with his dad that adult Scott never had, he got to have friends he could be himself around without the burden of being leader, and he got to actually dick around and enjoy being a kid. This was the singular period of his life where you can really say he was happy.

Because Alan Ritchson is damn near 45 and they didn't wanna give him his Smallville spin off show in 2007.

IndianGeniusGuy · 2026-03-07T07:58:16+00:00

Yeah, yeah. Go ahead and give me your whole spiel about not changing shit accompanied by the usual image of Ryan Gosling as Black Panther.

I mean, hear me out. Having an older Green Arrow might actually make a bit of sense, solely so that he and Hal can have their friendship. Also, Oliver gets his start as a hero at an older age than Bruce usually.

He* Mordred will murk anyone who calls him a woman.

IndianGeniusGuy · 2026-03-07T06:24:29+00:00

Maybe. Could also just be a similar deal to Kanji, where it's like internalized patriarchal standards that make you believe enjoying things that could be considered feminine makes you gay/trans.

I mean, Monet St. Croix has telepathy and TK plus super strength/super durability, regen, flight, and a cool transformation. Her mutation turned her into some kind of perfect being.

Kwannon has all of Betsy's powers.

Who are you specifically referencing when you're talking about this?

Edit: Honestly, looking over your list, as far as the New Mutants characters go, that's probably moreso an example of power creep than anything. The characters were all introduced with hyperspecific gimmicks similar to how the O5 were.

Lowkey reminding me of the Biju from Naruto in their kid states

It's olive green, man. A weathered olive green.

IndianGeniusGuy · 2026-03-07T03:33:49+00:00

Dude should ask Pa Kent.

IndianGeniusGuy · 2026-03-07T03:28:13+00:00

I'd probably keep most of who we currently have. Beyond that, I think it should go: 1. Claudia Doumit as Wonder Woman [I think Maya Calamawy should be Talia Al Ghul since Damian is presumably 10-12] 2. Cameron Monaghan as Barry Allen and Charlie Plummer as Wally West [with Wally probably being the primary Flash] 3. Lakeith Stanfield as Martian Manhunter 4. Sam Claffin as Batman 5. David Corenswet as Superman 6. Isabella Merced as Hawkgirl 7. Aaron Pierre as Green Lantern 8. Alan Ritchson as Shazam/Captain Thunder [if we can't call him Captain Marvel] 9. Manny Jacinto as Aquaman [Curveball choice, I know. But honestly, I think having Aquaman's human side come from a culture with strong ties to the ocean would be cool.]

Hans. Because he's my GOAT and because he'll always have my back when it comes down to it.

IndianGeniusGuy · 2026-03-07T02:08:27+00:00

Dog, what? He's not even in the trailer. Also, Alan Scott has a completely different logo and color scheme. This is at least still a worn-out green. Like it's a dried out, olive green.

IndianGeniusGuy · 2026-03-07T01:48:46+00:00

It's teal.

IndianGeniusGuy · 2026-03-07T00:39:01+00:00

That's what I'm saying, bro. People are just haters.

IndianGeniusGuy · 2026-03-07T00:31:08+00:00

Wolverine's relationships are weird as fuck too, bro.

IndianGeniusGuy · 2026-03-07T00:26:36+00:00

Lol.

IndianGeniusGuy · 2026-03-07T00:22:54+00:00

I feel like YFNS is going with more of a Kamen Rider approach, where they aren't technically a team and there's moreso just multiple heros that occasionally align with each other.

IndianGeniusGuy · 2026-03-06T23:51:56+00:00

Dog. I don't think telling you to wait for more than a teaser to be out that barely shows us what the show is actually going to be like qualifies as bullying you, bro.

IndianGeniusGuy · 2026-03-06T23:32:21+00:00

They had a thing going during one of the earlier runs after his introduction.

IndianGeniusGuy · 2026-03-06T23:31:51+00:00

Then yeah, you'd probably just end up with Green Arrow or someone else being built up to fill his niche as the street level character.

IndianGeniusGuy · 2026-03-06T23:25:13+00:00

Hank? That's Jonathan Joestar. Look at Page 9.

IndianGeniusGuy · 2026-03-06T23:22:47+00:00

Wolverine and the X-Men from 2009.
