Bad pun, I know.

...*...

So help me, that actually looked sort of cool.

An Aquaman live action series pilot looks sort of cool.

Has the world gone mad?

That does look quite good. I was sad to hear CW passed on it. It would have been a good companion to Smallville.

That looks like it has possibilities. I assume that it was leaked to try to drum up grassroots support for the show?

Probably, though by the look of it this trailer was cut more for prospective network to buy it than for fans.

I've always had an odd fascination with Aquaman. One of my supervisors during my last job looked exactly like a blonde, orangey-skinned, weatherbeaten Aquaman. He even had a touch of the neck webbing.

It was eerie. I wasn't about to check him for scales, though.

I'm not impressed... It wasn't bad, and I would probably watch the pilot if it's ever released, but I just have VERY little interest in Aquaman.

I think Aquaman was on my radar because it was such a nutty, implausible superhero setup. Very Who's Line is it Anyway?

As long as Patrick Duffy gets at least a cameo. I mean, they gave Chris Reeve and Margot Kidder cameos on Smallville, so it's the least they can do.

They should have grabbed the actor who played Aquaman on Smallville. That was a great episode.

The YouTube link is now defunct, as Warner Bros requested that the video be removed. But, I understand Yahoo! Videos may have posted a version, if one still wants to check it out.

I've only heard of Aquaman was when I caught a couple episodes of Entourage. I didn't think Aquaman existed outside of that show.

I did a search on YouTube for 'aquaman' and it came right up.

Someone else must've put it back on YouTube. Watch it now, before it gets taken down again. [Smile]

The original URL still gives the "taken down because it was used without permission" message. Warner Bros probably hasn't changed it's mind. But that's never stopped YouTube users from bringing "contraband" videos back. (See the "Vault Disney" incident.)
