Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom Pitch Meeting 

yeah yeah yeah!

Making the same repetitive comment under every Pitch Meeting is tight!

It's also super easy and barely an inconvenience

It’s also super easy and barely an inconvenience

YES!

I plan to watch this and I don't care to spoil it, it will be funnier to think about the PM through the movie.

@@attila0323 ah, so you're one of the five

So much garbage comments on the internet from people with no clue, amazing

​@@Simon-zo1vfAs you just proved. Touché.

@@Inevitable934 He is, and I'm the second

They're fatigued indeed. It's pretty simple to notice this. Until 2019 any super hero movie would easily make 500 million dollars of box office or more, no matter how terrible the movie was. Venom 1 made 800 million and Aquaman 1 made a billion in 2018 lol. Very few super hero films were box office failures then. Now, even the good ones are not able to reach the billion. Guardians 3 or Spiderverse 2 are amazing, but they just did "alright" at BO. Since 2019, the only exception was No Way Home with nearly 2 billion dollars.

It’s a bit of both, The Suicide Squad wasn’t terrible but it didn’t fill me with a strong desire to see what DC had planned next. Blue Beatle didn’t look like it had anything wrong with it either, I probably would’ve checked that out if it wasn’t for superhero fatigue.

Over saturating a market is a very real thing. I think for many people, superheroes are a nice diversion now and again - but the market that wants them to be the only media they consume is much smaller than the studios seem to have expected. And because they believed demand was so high, they rushed the movies again and again, which then led to formulaic or nonsensical plots, very bland characters and dialog, and over-reliance on the overworked VFX industry. And the bad quality and over-saturation spent up a lot of the good will they had created with a lot of people, I think. It doesn't help that it seems like many of the heroes are being written to be pretty interchangeable these days. Early MCU was pretty simple in their personalities and motivations, but they were definitely distinct. But, for the MCU at least, it's like they want to make all their heroes either Iron Man or Captain America, or both, while also forgetting that hero role and personality are not the same thing. I've not watched DCEU for a long time, but felt a similar thing that none of their heroes were either solidly their own character and thus were pretty much interchangeable. And so I just didn't care about any of their stories.

Season 2 loki was great

We always want something new. Superhero movies aren't new anymore.

Did he go for the head?

​@@seewhativescene I think it was more like the neck

Wow....wow...wow...wow❤

Knew it was building. Still wasn’t prepared lol

Deee Siii EEEeee Yuuuu

The DCEU is in the same state as D.C. and the EU. 💩

I had to do some very fast pause, play, pause on some of them to treat the headline and yes, BRUTAL!

Storm of BS for DC.

it makes sense since jl was the first pitch meeting

Top tier idea

So the DCEU is actually just over? I feel out of the loop. Also, yeah that would be really cool. I could see some great jokes in that :)

Yup it is over. Aquaman was the last film. Full reboot in 2025 and fully recast with James Gunn at the helm.

@@bestintheband5114 it’s called the dcu now i think. that could be a pitch meeting. “dcu pitch meeting”, where producer guy explains how the dceu has to go

Kinda how the Resistance suddenly has a fleet after being huddled in the Falcon between movies.

Lol

Not to mention training them in how to pilot an alien submarine.

Anyone who knows about The Lich King and Nagash was watching this movie going “Blizzard and Games Workshop are gonna sue DC for copyright infringement”

@@BewareTheCarpenter it wasn't alien, completely terrestrial. Just not human.

That quip where the Producer Guy asks Screenwriter Guy to imagine how it would be if the very last scene in the DCEU was be a major character eating a cockroach got me.

yeah, I played it in reverse, thinking there is no way the audio will be non-sensical. Well, what do you know. It checks out!

By far the best joke.

So, can we throw two tridents at him and end that tale as well?

"That's a weird way to say that"

​@@GenghisVernI think that one went right over your head,lol..

@@alihenderson5910 Pretty sure you're the one not getting it bud.

Mmmmmmmmnah, BECAUSE I can use the money I would have spent on a ticket, to buy food that I eat while I scroll my phone. That’s a much better time. I’d probably get tacos, but nachos would also be tasty. Or maybe a pizza.

I love how this wasn’t a joke, just a considerate ranking of how enjoyable the movie was 😂

My description would be "Meh". It isn't so bad that it makes me physically ill like the Marvels but it is just a waste of time, like most Hollywood movies from 2023.

As someone who has seen it... That's about right, yup. It was inoffensively bland with some cool fights and some nonsense decisions that are really fun to figure out why they did that.

my social media is just cool restaurants, funny comic artists and cats. no one on my social media ever shit on someone's pillow.

Didn't get it 😅 can u explain pls ?

@@AminePlayer1 There is a part of male anatomy that could be called a "bag". When wearing boxers as underwear that part is free to hang down, but if a man were to want that region to be more "secured" aka held in place, they could switch to briefs as underwear.

@@esotericVideos But can you explain it in five words or fewer please?

​@as3609 briefs hold balls, boxers don't. Boom.

I watched the movie at the cinema and the whole "reveal that we exist" story made me go: "Wait a minute, didn't they already do do? Ooooooh, that was Marvel" - let's be honest, the whole movie is a rip-off (again) but I still enjoyed it, just could have used a couple more jokes (that don't include pee).

"Did you say Wakanda?"

😂😂😂😂😂same

​@@Juleru It's actually just Thor 2 with the tone of Thor 4😂

@@seansillah2703so you mean Thor 3……

Seriously. The worse that Hollywon't 'films" get, the more material Ryan has to sift through. I mean, just LOOK at all of these maelstroms of movies! It's a fuggin' MESS. 😂

@Sexychildren Same Choom, they are a terrible street gang in the city where I live. :(

Spear >blood magic

​@@rustblade7you sure its not a book club? What gang has that vocabulary?😂😂😂

​@Sexychildren😮😮😮you don't get an opinion on words with that name...

entire basis for Spider-Man No Way Home XD

I knew about this one but the first I knew about the Echo series even being a thing was the Honest Trailer (gonna forget it again now)

I don't go to see movies anymore... Ryan provides me with all I need to know. 😂

I agree Brian!! I’d prefer to see Ryan’s pitch meetings than the movies!! 🤣💕🇦🇺

I guess he’s doing fine, but he forgot to mention the part where Aquaman did a backflip, snapped the bad guy’s neck and saved the day.

I've started trusting Ryan George's synopsis as an indicator of whether or not a movie is worth watching 😂

@kargen1963 Likely, if he made a video of it, then the choice is obvious.

Part of his formula for success is avoiding anything that might be controversial like the plague. Doesn't matter how low hanging the fruit is, he stays away from it and makes sure to keep his humor non offensive. Nothing wrong with that either.

Jason Momoa starred in the movie all by himself. That's what Amber heard. (look at notes) Yeah that's right.

Amber who?

@@Balderdash1000I wouldn’t say that - think he’s had some thinly veiled stuff that I recall as being either anti-Trump or pro-vaxx, not that those are distinct viewpoints though. You get enough of a sense that he’s a decent sort.

@@Stan_the_BelgianAmber Turd

*Your comment is the most beautifully accurate I have ever seen!!!!!* 🤣😅😂😆

I enjoyed this movie. 30 bucks well spent

This movie is getting a stupid amount of hate. It was about as good as the first one. Amber Heard isn't in that many scenes, and while she's a disgusting person, her CHARACTER isn't. Mera is fucking HAWT.

what's your cope when he shreds every single Marvel movie to pieces too?

It's been this way for a long time. A long, long time.

It took me a second to realize this was from Pitch Meeting and not the movie itself, which pretty much sums up the quality control of DCEU's last film

Wait until you discover PMS magic 🩸🩸

The way he delivered that was insanely funny.

Why?

I put the video on 0.25x speed for that part and it STILL went by too quickly to read

I would imagine if you're trying to mind-control someone, convincing him to attack someone he's previously seen as an enemy would be easier than convincing him to stab himself. But I'm not exactly an expert on evil trident magic, so who really knows?

Evil trident magic seems like a niche field to be sure. But clearly, the bad guy was a big LOTR fan, so he had that going for him, which is nice. @@lilliematthews7922

I thought he'd point out that Arthur and Orm are basically Thor and Loki in Ragnarok- one long haired, quippy God with immense powers who accepted the throne despite not wanting it and his younger brother with similar but slightly weaker powers who wants to be king despite not deserving to be. They hate each other yet need each other and end up loving each other. The older brother likes humans and thinks they ought to be protected while the younger one hates them. They both want to win the affection of their mother. If Orm was a bit more quippy, then this is 100%, a Thor movie.

⁠@@hittingyouoverthehead I like the observation, and you’re probably right. And I don’t wanna give this movie too much credit, but Thor and Loki are not the only quippy brothers who’ve ever fought for a crown. It’s kind of a huge historical trope. When the first Thor came out, Thor and Loki were compared to Scar and Mufasa, and Lion King is basically just Hamlet from Shakespeare, and you can find all kinds of similar examples in any stories about royalty. Moses and Ramses in Prince of Egypt had a similar relationship even though it ended way differently. The stuff about loving the humans is probably the closest, but the circumstances are so different I’d hardly compare Orm to Loki. Loki was just a power hungry tyrant who defied his own kingdom, Orm did it with good intentions for his kingdom.

@@Blucham You're right, it's probably a stretch but still I thought it'd been funny how to point out how many winning Marvel things they put in this movie. There's the brother dynamic from Thor, the kingdom is basically Wakanda, the final "I am Aquaman" is from Iron man because it makes no sense to say that. Aquaman is famous in this universe after the whole steppenwolf thing. And if Aquaman is real, then so is Atlantis so it makes no sense for them to remain hidden or even debate if they should reveal themselves to humans. And it's not just the dynamic between Thor and Loki, it's also the way they jump between various worlds that reminded me of Thor. The villain is the hero's making from back when he thought he has the "correct" ideals which is also from Iron Man, which is again a stretch because it's a common trope too. However, unlike Iron Man, Aquaman never got the lesson from anyone that his idea of morality and punishment is wrong so the final change of heart where he tries to save David Kane is unearned. There are so many superhero movies now that it's basically impossible to write something that hasn't already appeared in one of the Marvel properties. I don't blame them for that but it would have been funny to point it out.

“Roach sandwich”. Sums up the movie well

They're the shrimp of the land!

Lmao

To be fair they already did a mirror match to the film's prior, and mostly this one with Black Manta, so another one would be too much. All tho at this point just don't wake him up and let him die instead of hyping the fight

No comments?

Patience, Daniel-sahn.

Y'all watch Ryan George?

i wouldn't even count this as a whimper, this is a death rattle

They pretty much deserve it after protecting Ezra Miller

Not a bang but a whimper

​@@mere7583Both true and fair.

@sabershikik9351 Not a whimper, but a silent deadly poot.

It's what Zack Snyder said about Rebel Moon as well, and he just makes a new version of Battle Beyond the Stars, which again is a remake of Seven Samurai. 😆

Good...good.

@FabledGentleman No James Horner = no sale.

John 14:6 Jesus Christ says - I am the Way the Truth and the Life, No one comes unto the Father except through Me. Romans 6:23 For the wages of Sin is death but the free gift of God is Eternal Life in Christ Jesus. Repent of thine sins, turn to God and ye shall be forgiven. Jesus is coming back soon!🥳 Jesus Christ loves you and died on the cross for YOU😁he loves you so much and is calling you to a relationship with your Father in Heaven Elohim. The devil’s time is running out and he knows it. Turn to God and step on the schemes of the devil. John 8:36 To Whom the Son(Jesus Christ) sets free is free indeed. That anxiety, depression, mania can all cease in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour. Hallelujah. That’s good news!!🎉🎉 the devil has been judged but GODS SHOWN US MERCY!!🙌🏻 Repent. Believe in the gospel. Put your faith in Jesus and ye shall be Saved!!

Sadly that seems true for the majority of movies

Who actually watches these movies?

@@cjraymond8827 No one anymore.

Same dude

I been thinking that a lot lately.

Same.

Same

Ditto

Plan 3: If it’s a movie I want to see, but there’s a Pitch Meeting of it in my sidebar, I assess life and all existence.

How do some people say they almost walked out and other people like me think it was the best dceu movie this year

It was really entertaining, it's dumb entertaining. I'm not watching to get a brilliant movie, I'm just looking for a fun experience and I got it! Arthur and Orm dynamic is just so fun

It was fun

I swear this literally had a marketing budget of $0

Because reasons

Because they don't respect cartoons

Because they just worked on silly cartoons which, as everyone knows, are just for kids, while the DCEU was supposed to be real cinema. I'm like 99% sure this was the thinking behind that.

Because the message.

@@Roronoa2zoro I think you're right, it had to be arrogance and hubris. What they failed to understand that those silly cartoons have an enduring legacy for a reason. We took it seriously because it took us seriously, they very deliberately did not write them like saturday morning cartoons. Hell, the beloved Cadmus arc of Justice League Unlimited was some hardcore cold war shit between the Justice League and the US government. Something like that would have been awesome on the silver screen if handled right.

Tells ya EVERYTHING ya need to know about Hollywon't. It's a friggin' corrupt, corporate, clueless mess.

Thinking momoa is a good actor is a wild take

​@OnePiece4ev3r unless everyone agree on criteria, anyone take is good

Is it untrue? I mean, with the exception of Fast and the Furious & Joss Weadon's Justice League (2017) he usually gives convincing and comitted performances as an actor.

@@BatAmerica Fast X is easily his best performance so far. You just hating on the Fast movies but it’s a fact.

it'd be super easy, barely an inconvenience.

That works!

Just huff glue and watch Seven Samurai

It would be a short pitch. Not much happens.

@@momomomocensoredbyyoutube9085just do the video in slow motion

I would pay money to see that 👍

​@@kambrieearl4299 Not me, but I would watch a _Pitch Meeting_ about it. Note, that I watch every _Pitch Meeting._ This is not a request for that particular subject. Ryan is better at choosing topics than I am.

I would pay money to watch that. How about an Aquaman and Hong Kong Phooey crossover?

How about Aquaman vs King Kong?

_Aquaman v Namor: Dawn of glglglglgl_

Me too 🤒

​@@Semystic"...just the medicine I need to get well" could work

I honestly think the fantastic beasts 2 when he was doing the crab walk is the funniest one I fall over every time you should check it out 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤❤ that and the one he did on the teenage high School love story with the wolf and vampire I can't remember the name I it was funny the way he was talking about the shiny skin on the vampires who were trying to be teenagers (Twilight is the Show)😢😂😢😂😢

@@realitymatters4745 that one is a good one too🤣💀

The DCEU has been a mess from the start and with Marvel messing up now too, I hope the restart will help, so we can at least get a couple of good superhero movies in the future.

I'm always expecting the stinger at the end, but when they just kept coming I lost it, that was perfect

I was never ready for "switch to brifs" 😅😅😅

I honestly am not sure if I saw the first one. Not joking.

I remember thinking Jason Momoa is a cool guy. I cannot remember anything about the movie itself.

I remember the drinking with fishermen scene and the fact that Dr. Evil laser sharks were in it. Nothing more.

I remember laughing at moments that were clearly not intended to be funny.

This one is better because it's shorter. I think that's about all you need to know.

Nah. That'll be the Adidas brand Spider-suit for Mile Morales, in the Spider-Man 2 game.

And then the baby immediately called out for "bLoOD!"

I had to go back through it and pause it just to read all the clips and still miss some cuz it was too many too fast that was epic

Wait, what? That’s a catchphrase? :)

Wow wow wow wow... wow.

First few are solid enough…there after it’s seriously diminished returns.

It went out, not with a bang or a whimper. But with a... plob.

They were without a doubt some of the movies of all time.
