Destinies Reviews Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom

Poster image of Aquaman and the Lost Kindgom

 

From Howard Margolin: 

Last week, Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom opened in theaters, bringing an end to the saga of the DC Extended Universe.

This week, the Destinies Film Review Team swims in for a live discussion of the movie.

Tune in Friday night, at 11:15 PM, and find out how the second outing for the King of Atlantis stacks up, not only against his first solo adventure, from 2018, but compared to the other three DC movies that were released this year.

Is there significant character development in this movie, and if so, for whom?

How does the story address the real-world issue of climate change, something no other comic book movie has addressed?

If this is Jason Momoa's last turn as Aquaman, might he make a better Lobo in the new DCU?

And, what is this movie worth on the Famous Destinies Zero to Nine Dollars Rating Scale?

Find out on Friday, December 29th, at 11:15 PM, when hosts Howard Margolin, Audrey Dettmering, Dave Campfield, and Timothy Gillespie assemble to review Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom on Destinies-The Voice of Science Fiction.

Destinies Promo for 12/22/23 (Destinies presents the Justice League-part 2)

From Howard Margolin:

This week, Destinies salutes the release of Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom, and the conclusion to the saga of the DC Extended Universe, by taking you back to when the Justice League's cinematic future was still promising.

Tune in Friday night, and travel back to Ace Comic Con Long Island, on December 10th, 2017, for part two of a panel with the cast of Justice League.

In front of a capacity crowd at the Nassau Coliseum, Jason Momoa, Henry Cavill, Gal Gadot, and Ray Fisher discuss their feelings about a potential team-up or battle with Marvel's Avengers, what they wanted to bring to their portrayals of the iconic DC heroes and how they wanted to develop them in future films, and their feelings about meeting the fans, especially children.

Plus, Patrick Thomas' "Dear Cthulhu" answers a letter from a young man who is too traumatized to drive a car.

Friday, December 22nd, at 11:30 PM.

Hosted by Howard Margolin with Patrick Thomas.
