Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom is proving to be another critical and commercial flop for the DCEU, and Jason Momoa called out one of its flaws six years ago. Rightfully or not, Aquaman has become something of a joke in the superhero genre. The character is often mocked for his silly outfit in the comics and his unique ability to talk to fish. However, Momoa gave the character a makeover as he infused his cool "bro" aesthetic into the role. Unfortunately, Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom hasn't been a massive hit like the first, and it could be due to a common criticism of the hero.
