Title: Aquaman
Post by: 42 on November 14, 2005, 08:24:53 PM: So the people who make Smallville have decided that superman is boring. So who is more exciting than Superman...not Batman and not Wonder Woman...Aquaman, duh.

We'll see where this goes.

Not sure what else to say except, Aquaman?

Anyway, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't watch a series on Aquaman. Eh, just doesn't sound that thrilling.

Besides, I only have so much TV time I can squeeze in between studying and everything else. And I don't see myself replacing my weekly "quality time" with Welling any time soon. ;)

I didn't like the character at all and I didn't understand why Aquaman was going ga-ga over Lois and vice versa when he knew he wasn't going to be in town very long. He was really obnoxious. I think Smallville is just okay and I watch it cause my husband loves Superman and it works as something to watch.

Aquaman summons a swarm of clown fish to attack Harbinger, only to discover that once again his ability to control fish is useless.

It'd be all. "There's the man again! I'm so excited! Food! little nuggets of food! FOOD! AUGH! WHat's that spoon thing!?! WHat's he doing? NO! NOT OUT OF THE BOWL! Oh... this is nice. It's very big. Hm... Wonder when the man will show up and feed me. AUGH! WHat's that spoon thing?!?!" etc.
