Jokes about Arthur Curry talking to fish have persisted for years, and we expect that James Wan fully intends to lean headfirst into those jokes to provide the film’s comic relief.
We have not seen much from Arthur Curry in the DCEU, but most of his appearances have been incredibly dark, brooding scenes.
I really have to address the fact that this comes as an enormous relief.
However, taking inspiration from Raiders of the Lost Ark and Romancing the Stone almost certainly guarantees that Aquaman will try to be an incredibly funny film, because those movies have become iconic for their seamless blend of thrills and laughs.
