looks like a power ranger movie to me I mean c'mon The Armor! The Water Gun! then once my friend told me bout the movie he said he kinda wasted his money
Idk why but whenever black manta flips the gun around and they try to make it like this "expertise weapon handler cool moment" it comes off extremely goofy. Mainly cause it just seems like they sped up the clip or something. Idk it feels off. 0:59
What I love about this scene is that it's usually the hero getting a "suit up" montage to show how they'll fight the villain/baddies. I love that we got one of those types of scenes for Black Manta.
@@kirstenshay254 Except for the fact that your opinion means nothing to me. I really couldn't care if you liked the movie or not (and if not, why the hell are you watching video clips of it?)
I like that they came up with an in universe explanation for Black Manta’s helmet being so ridiculously big: it needs to be that big to handle the sheer energy output from the lasers it shoots
@@nathanielmccormack4830 here's the thing though : first i'm not a comic fan nor a dc/marvel movie maniac, i just say things the way i see it and this costum for a movie is tacky. second, what works for comic media doesn't necessarily means it still works for cinema. 2D animation is very different with 3D moving media. that's why some live-action film is often boring, they can't bring out the emotion that 2D media allows them to because 3D is much more constricting. a good example is lion king live action, the original feels alot more lively and you could really see the expressions of each character because well they're cartoon, while the "live-action" remake can't compare because they're constricted by realism. if they can't adapt how the costume looks for movie adaptation even just a little bit, then that's not staying true to the comics, that's just lazy design. plus as alot of people have said in this comment section already : the movie itself is fun and not bad for a movie night, but the costume looks cheap for an aqua man movie. if this was a power rangers movie however this would fit in nicely, but it's not. some scenes are welldone while others look rushed. as someone on this comment section have already said, "this movie manages to look high budget and low budget at the same time." and with 25k likes, he's not the only one who thinks that way.
Pandu Adikara but when it comes to comics movie, they have to take in accuracy to account, I hate to break it to you, but they still have to please the fans
Say what you will, this guy took highly experimental Atlantean tech and massively improved it. Turning a massive, unwieldily rifle into an integrated helmet is an insane feat for a solo researcher working with what might as well be alien tech
@Papaya Tasty Yea you can argue with that but ever mentioned in the movie? "You failled coz your land weapons aren't advanced enough". Why didn't he created something him self in the movie and after that he could be armed by the Atlantians...
Zezree maybe in Aquaman 2 we will get his character development 😁 for me when he built his own suit that means he good , he can build his suit up , so people already know this guy is literally an engineer villain
@Papaya Tasty This is one of the situations where some exposition would have helped to actually explain the character. They could have just with a few lines explain early in the film that he was a genius as engineer maybe even throw in a line where he said the only thig limiting his abilities is this "low" technology. BAM! Would have made perfect sense.
I adore Zack's approach to DC with his mythological approach, but I also love James' approach. Fully accepting of the ridiculousness and the nature of the comic books. Looking to Peter David's Aquaman as inspiration for the character, but the silver age for the stories and solo movies was genius. Truly the best of both worlds.
Gotta say this is so memorable. They didn't have to address his suit creation so literally, but I remember this being the first official image teaser from the film and its satisfaction.
If it is Prototype it means there is not so many out there yet and it still being tested. Giving it to Black manta is a way of testing the weapon in the battlefield.
He actually said “the strongest metal on earth and they used it to make a Frisbee” implying that they used vibration to make a shield( captain americas shield)
@@Luthies Well I mean, Manta and his family had been living and working out at sea for generations, so it stands to reason that he has met with Atlantans for years. The Atlantans also trusted him enough to hire him twice, so there is confirmation of history there. Maybe he stole or was given Atlantan tech at one point or another.
I was expecting a deleted scene like this..... *helmet explodes* Manta: Im gonna need a bigger helmet *cuts to the beach* *Orm staring at Manta in silence for a solid 5 seconds* Orm: You blew it up? Manta: Yeaaaaaah, i was trying to convert it into a helmet Orm: The four vanguard i gave could easily have assisted you. This time, use them *Orm gestures to two more sets of the weapons* Orm: Failure....is not an option. Kill the half bread.
Etneciv Lego Black Manta isn’t legendary. Tony created his first internal-combustion engine at 4 and graduated from MIT at 16. Black manta is just supposedly super smart without any context.
Aquaman was amazing, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II nailed the role of Black Manta, I liked how his character was more of a anti hero and not a straight up villain, the Black Manta suit looked incredible 👏👏👏
They're like "hey so why are we following this random human again? I thought we considered surface dwellers as inferior. Let's just take the weapons and armour and kill Aquaman ourselves"
It really shows off how brilliant he is. And frankly, someone like this could be an insane threat to the JL. I mean, imagine if he gets his hands on Kryptonian tech (which may not be too difficult if, say, they have some pieces of armor left around from the MoS encounter)
@@korsekil right, u forgot the time he spent on reversing this. How many days? Even if kryptonites tech are 5 times harder it will still be less than a year for him lol
Black manta is my favourite villain ever. Along with electro. His suit design is badass. It sucks that DC decides to kill him off. Hopefully he will come back.
Ricardo Octaviani he makes the weapon weak as heck as well and makes his head a bigger target. the more logical step would be to have it on both arms and when his arm join kamehameha style it would produce maximum explosive damage
I like the idea of him having to call them back, "yeah, I broke it." Then a second more disdainful scene on the beach of them bringing another set of armor and weapons.
What I really love about this movie is Black Manta's character, they made him so great. Revenge fuelled to kill Aquaman, and is given the weaponry and armour from a Villain who also hates Aquaman, giving us explanation to how Black Manta got his iconic look and battlesuit
Bao Anh Nguyen I did as you suggested and yes, the water does seem to move itself, but he definitely makes contact with the water. I played it at 0.25 just to see and it does.

I love this scene. It's not very often we get a supervillain montage.
4 ปีที่แล้ว +16
I mean it has in universe explanations of both the helmet size and the lasers and Seriously it's not often when you see a montage of the villain making he's costume!
Might as well love how he hated Aquaman for killing his Dad when they are hijacking a submarine, killed many people, and play victim in the end to have a reasonable revenge.
@@nursultantulyakbay6643 it's not like hes pretending they were doing good things, but realistically anyone(who is close to their parent) is gonna be pretty livid if someone else is responsible for killing them. Makes sense
The after credits scene specifically shows us that he's alive and still wants aquaman dead, so it's safe to say that yes, in the aquaman sequel he will be the main antagonist, or at least he'll reappear
You got wet when a water is absorbed to your clothing or some drop left on your skins ... Their technology make sure so the water to stay on the designed form, so it won't stuck or absorbed anywhere ... cmiiw ...
Could be wrong but looks like he severely depowered the weapon when he converted it to eye beams. The rifle blew the top off a small mountain. He eyebeams were vastly less effective.
It is weaker, not less effective. Those two things are different. It is actually more effective because the original weapon was too unwieldly. His modification, while less powerful, allows for a lot more maneuverability. All that power isn't good if you can't hit your target properly because your weapon weights a fuckton. Also, that wasn't the full power of the helmet. It broke when it shot.
@@naosou921 I see your point, but how about this... Use the original weapon and shoot from a distance? Like seeing Aquaman walking in the town and instead of walking up to him, stand in a building window and shoot. 🥴 Roll end credits. lol
Little details like that (along with the brief cameo of Topo, Aquaman's octopus pet/sidekick on the comics) really shows that the crew/director went way deep into the character's core universe.
@@nerdrobot it's his world war 2 outfit crossed with the original for a more tactical look. Avengers 1 he looked the most silly, in most of the other movies it looks good.
@@thescruffinator8830 If it were me, getting revenge for someone killing the person most closest to me in my life. Someone I’ve known for decades, someone I loved. I wouldn’t give a damn about the money Even though I probably should 😏
@@dragonic22 it's almost definitely not money, but even if it were anybody with half a brain cell would accept the reward. How idiotic do you need to be to deny a reward when getting it only benefits you, there's no downside, if you're gonna kill him whether you're rewarded or not why would you refuse a reward?-
@@similaritiesendhere My point is, while that may have been what they were doing originally, Manta doesn't care about that anymore. You're right, he could have had both. He could have had a huge reward. But he didn't want it. He no longer cares about money or power. What's the point in getting a reward you don't want? Also, I doubt Atlantian currency is going to have any value on the surface.
@@arkhamjamesv My point is that he doesn't care about it because he's stupid. He was written poorly. His father would've died for nothing if Manta stopped caring about money and power. Pirates die all the time. Manta not being able to accept that proves that he should've never been a pirate in the first place. If all he cared about was his dad's life, he shouldn't have helped his dad be a pirate. Poor writing. Also, on what planet is power not currency? Ocean Master was going to conquer the world.

- When did you become an expert on Atlantian technology? - Last night. 1. Thank you all for liking this comment, first one to go above 100 :) 2. for y'all who didn't understand and think of this as sarcasm, i invite you to watch Avengers 1 and pay close attention to Sr. Tony Stark. Have a good day y'all !
This guy was a generational sea pirate. His family has been living in seas for centuries. And they have close relationship with atlanteans. That's why called him for help.
This film somehow manages to look visually amazing while simultaneously looking visually terrible. Like, a lot of the environments are gorgeous but they also look horrendously fake at the same time. It's really weird.
@@Keyecomposer Dude, this was campy more on purpose than anything from MCU. When he was making the movie he literally went for campy. I mean, he had SHARKS WITH FRIGGIN LAZERS!! There's no logic to that, he just wanted sharks with lasers, that's why the movie is awesome.
@@zachmarkham84 You know that there's no reason to dislike DC cuz you like Marvel or vice versa? You can enjoy all properties like a normal human being.
Black manta was really the best thing to come out with him designing his own variation of his own unique style Of his suit, literally wanting to see more from Black manta own movie would've been really a nice how his character development would've hold up really good.
I love that we had a wholeass montage dedicated to Manta painting his fucking armor black. Like, you'd think armor designed for the depths of the ocean would be black by default to blend in with darkness, but it's actually whiter than mayo, and we got Manta having to modify the armor to match his aesthetic. I fucking love it.
Black Manta served more as a Sub-Plot than the central villain, but I thought that worked quite well. Effective Subplots add texture to what would otherwise be a flat, A-Z storyline. Well Written.
So are the elite guards just hanging around outside going "so...should we tell him that we're kinda on a time crunch?" "Did you see that smirk he gave? I don't think now is the time" "Well should we at least give him the instructions for that experimental technology we just gave him?" "Nah I'm sure he's got it figured out" "He just blew a hole through the roof" "Like I said, he's got it figured out"
Thats the dumb part. If he could reverse Atlantean tech and convert 3 foot gun into a helmet laser then these idiots wasted their time. Cause it seems like all you need to make it work is the jewel/rock component to focus the inner, whatever component you use to covert water and well...water...which I'm guessing this idiot installed some heat pump to create water, the vent system sucks the water into suit, When needed the water goes over the converter and charges the jewel. But even then I still don't believe this guy who make this. THe Reason Black Manta worked is because he was Atlantean. The funny thing is this guy failed. HARD. Giving him a bigger gun won't stop Superman lite
Why is everybody criticizing him for taking apart a “big laser gun” and making it apart of his suit. The gun is a hand held object that can easily get loss or disarm from him. As part of his suit it’s inseparable and gives him a surprise edge in battle.
I get your point , but on the other side it doesn't seem like manta is smart enough to take apart atlantean tech and use it in his suit.It just seemed very convenient that he was able to do so without providing much background or history that he could.
@@syedrayyan190 There's nothing hard to understand about what He did... It's easy , it's a gun, He just needs to find a way to redistribute the Water-energy converter , a way of making the energy beams pass from it to the eyes and boom ... That's it
Didn't seem to do much in combat now did it though? Last I checked he got an anchor smashed in his face along with the laser. If he would have kept the gun the way it was then that first blast that surprise hit Arthur and the redhead girl would have surely killed both of them, all he did when he changed it to a helmet is nerf the damage. I'm not angry about it I just see the point some people are talking about.
@@kwakugyebi6705 I know that's how the character looks, but I'm just saying, dude was just a human mercenary, and he's reconfigured technology so far beyond him.
Kwaku Gyebi in the movies he wasn’t established as such, I think, but in the comics he has extensive mechanical experience and artificial enhancements, gills and endurance
It seems to basically be hotwiring. I'd guess that the weapons system is mostly understandable by us, with a few high tech parts, which would make sense.
@@mateoqueen7834 To disperse energy created to shoot the plasma beam. Like a coil. If it's to tight it heats up to fast. If it's looser it heats more evenly and slowly. Something like that would make sense.
People: "Why do they keep remaking the suits on heroes and villains, just show them like they are in the comics!" Movie: "But it will look really silly..." *later* Movie: *uses suit from comic book* People: "Looool that looks stupid, why did you guys do that?" Movie: "......."
Literally why people need to honestly shut the hell up more than not in critiquing the comic continuity of a live action. As long as the overall integrity of the character is in tact then its all good.
I know iron man is a God with tech, cuz he kind of is technology himself (did that make sense?) But has he ever dealt with alien tech? Cuz I wouldn't know :(
@@agent1483 are u kidding me? Avengers: Even the aliens weapons were no match for his suit Age of Ultron: Created Vision and Ultron with mind stone Infinity War: Gone one to one battle with Thanos with his weapons. Endgame: Surpasses every alien intelligence in the group( Rocket and Nebula) and created the f**king time machine Creates a Infinity Gauntlet with normal metal which even Eitri have had hard time creating with metal of Nidavellir Also creates secret nano gauntlet in his armour to contain all six infinity stone!!!
Well not really, the weapon probably separates the hydrogen and oxygen and uses the the hydrogen as plasma. Humans can already do this and it won't solve the energy problem lmao. Not even close. In fact it won't impact energy research in the slightest. All we need is a material that can sustain millions of degrees of heat so we can run fusion plants instead of fission.
@@MrDeclareWar it's not about the energy, just how it tips the balance in power between countries. Although the material they used for the actual gun would have to be pretty strong
Idk. Most one dimensional villains are evil just for the sake of being evil. They did at least establish his background, coming from a family of pirates and gave him (from his point-of-view) a legit reason to seek vengeance on Aquaman.

It baffles me how he can look at a futuristic laser gun and think to himself "Hmmmm helmet."
Well it’s harder to lose a laser helmet than holding a laser gun, I think that was his logic

@@ricardooctaviani5679 no not really

Good thing he'll most likely be the main villain in the sequel
Black manta motivation was shittiest i think
What I really love about this movie is Black Manta's character, they made him so great. Revenge fuelled to kill Aquaman, and is given the weaponry and armour from a Villain who also hates Aquaman, giving us explanation to how Black Manta got his iconic look and battlesuit

I guess they just didn’t think it was important, I mean I’m here analyzing why water doesn’t drench Yahya Abdul-Mateen II 😂😂
Maybe, it’s because even though the water touched his body, it moved away in order to create the hologram.
I love this scene. It's not very often we get a supervillain montage.
I mean it has in universe explanations of both the helmet size and the lasers and Seriously it's not often when you see a montage of the villain making he's costume!

Black Manta's suit looks badass. I hope they make a sequel with him being the main antagonist.

@@ManusiaKagakRusuh he walked through it
Atlantean technology
@@ManusiaKagakRusuh Did you make all that up just to defend it?
Could be wrong but looks like he severely depowered the weapon when he converted it to eye beams. The rifle blew the top off a small mountain. He eyebeams were vastly less effective.
It is weaker, not less effective. Those two things are different.
It is actually more effective because the original weapon was too unwieldly. His modification, while less powerful, allows for a lot more maneuverability. All that power isn't good if you can't hit your target properly because your weapon weights a fuckton.
Also, that wasn't the full power of the helmet. It broke when it shot.
Love him or hate him, he’s spitting strait fax 😳
I think it has something to do with all that slimy goo that he poured out of the gun
@@naosou921 I see your point, but how about this... Use the original weapon and shoot from a distance? Like seeing Aquaman walking in the town and instead of walking up to him, stand in a building window and shoot. 🥴 Roll end credits. lol

We need more scenes like this in movies, I like to see how they make there awesome suits and not just see them appear in it, just my opinion
Agreed. The suit-making scene is the coolest scene in any movie
Loved that nod to the original helmet.
Little details like that (along with the brief cameo of Topo, Aquaman's octopus pet/sidekick on the comics) really shows that the crew/director went way deep into the character's core universe.
Just like having Aquaman and Ocean Master in their classic costumes in the final battle.

He could have had a huge reward. But he didn't want it. He no longer cares about money or power. What's the point in getting a reward you don't want?

@@arkhamjamesv My point is that he doesn't care about it because he's stupid. He was written poorly.
His father would've died for nothing if Manta stopped caring about money and power. Pirates die all the time.

Poor writing.
Also, on what planet is power not currency? Ocean Master was going to conquer the world.

*starts scooping it back into the helmet with his hands*
That scene was so dump, in a otherwise decent movie.
Thats the dumb part. If he could reverse Atlantean tech and convert 3 foot gun into a helmet laser then these idiots wasted their time. Cause it seems like all you need to make it work is the jewel/rock component to focus the inner, whatever component you use to covert water and well...water...which I'm guessing this idiot installed some heat pump to create water, the vent system sucks the water into suit, When needed the water goes over the converter and charges the jewel.
But even then I still don't believe this guy who make this. THe Reason Black Manta worked is because he was Atlantean. The funny thing is this guy failed. HARD. Giving him a bigger gun won't stop Superman lite

Why is everybody criticizing him for taking apart a “big laser gun” and making it apart of his suit. The gun is a hand held object that can easily get loss or disarm from him. As part of his suit it’s inseparable and gives him a surprise edge in battle.
I get your point , but on the other side it doesn't seem like manta is smart enough to take apart atlantean tech and use it in his suit.It just seemed very convenient that he was able to do so without providing much background or history that he could.
@@syedrayyan190 There's nothing hard to understand about what He did... It's easy , it's a gun, He just needs to find a way to redistribute the Water-energy converter , a way of making the energy beams pass from it to the eyes and boom ... That's it
@ I have autism and yet I can clearly understand why he broke it down. To make it easier for combat, duh.
Didn't seem to do much in combat now did it though? Last I checked he got an anchor smashed in his face along with the laser. If he would have kept the gun the way it was then that first blast that surprise hit Arthur and the redhead girl would have surely killed both of them, all he did when he changed it to a helmet is nerf the damage. I'm not angry about it I just see the point some people are talking about.
