How come Temuera Morrison got the lock on playing dads? Did nobody see ONCE WERE WARRIORS?
I did.
And it was great, in a "I'm really glad I have my own life" kind of way.

You've stepped on my jokes for the last time, Canadian.I did.

Don't know the actor, but I'm glad DC is going ruffneck for Aquaman and his dad. Growing up in the 70s I always thought Aquaman was the biggest pussy out there. lolUpdate: February 3, 2017
Temuera Morrison to Play Aquaman's Father in AQUAMAN Movie
Temuera Morrison, perhaps best known for his work playing Jango Fett in the Star Wars prequels, is in negotiations to join the cast of Aquaman, Warner Bros.’ big-screen take on the classic DC Entertainment underwater-breathing comic book superhero.
The cast so far includes Jason Momoa as the title character, Amber Heard as Mera, Aquaman's royal love interest, and Willem Dafoe as Aquaman’s advisor, scientist Dr. Vulko. Patrick Wilson, who starred in director James Wan’s Conjuring movies, will play Orm, a villain who happens to be Aquaman’s half-brother.
This week, offers went out to Nicole Kidman and Get Down actor Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, and both are now in early negotiations. If deals make, Kidman would play Aquaman’s mother who hails from the underwater kingdom of Atlantis, while Abdul-Mateen will play the classic villain, Black Manta.
Morrison will play Aquaman’s human father. Wan is sitting in the director’s chair and prepping the movie for an April start in Australia.
Morrison can currently be heard (but not seen) in Disney Animation’s Moana, in which he voices Moana’s father, Chief Tui. He appeared in another DC-related movie in 2011 when he played Abin Sur in Warners’ Green Lantern. He has been a fixture in the Star Wars universe since playing Jango Fett in Attack of the Clones and has appeared and voiced various characters in movies, video games and cartoons.

Not even Barb Wire or the Star Wars prequels?Don't know the actor,
He's Jango Fett? Oh, my, didn't recognize him.Not even Barb Wire or the Star Wars prequels?
That's totally backwards. A season of tv is much more drawn out than a movie. You say Captain America doesn't need a 2 hour movie, yet Daredevil needs a 8 hour season?Hollywood is going to ruin comic books the same way they helped ruin SNL. Take a shitty character that people could probably only tolerate for 5-10 minutes at a time, then shove a full hour and a half, 2 hours of that character down their throats until they kill it completely. It's going to get old.
"Hey, Blues Brothers gives the lols! Let's give it a full length feature!"
And it worked, barely. So then they took everything else. It's Pat, Superstar, Wayne's World, Ladies' Man and more...all of which were average at best, downright abysmal at worst.
Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Captain America - these guys don't need their own drawn out features, and throwing all the superheroes into one movie is way too much (X-Men, anyone?)
They need to do superheroes Gotham/Daredevil style from now on. Half hour, hour tops. These heroes are not interesting enough to carry feature films.

they did that to try and block Marvel's Submariner.Still better than Manti Te'o or David Tua as I have mentioned, but still, this interracial, multicultural, SJW crap is getting out of hand. Momoa never should have been casted as Aquaman. He looks nothing like him.

the traditional more wimpy looking Aquaman would have left lots of room for a more macho SubMariner. Now the parallels may well prevent that project ever launching.
This is the gay Aquaman.What is the more traditional Aquaman though? I only remember the buff blonde Aquaman, or the buff blonde AQM with the beard, and a hook for a hand.
