James Cameron's long overdue Avatar sequels will have their work cut out for them to try to top what Wan brings to the table, envisaging a stunning new world deep beneath the ocean, and realising a multitude of captivating, imaginative action sequences both above and below the waves. Thankfully, Fast & Furious 7 director James Wan didn't get the memo, and instead set about crafting an insanely intricate and lavish underwater experience, literally like taking Kosinski's Tron sequel and expanding its scope to take those neon futurescapes underwater. Despite it seeming unfathomable that any film studio could mess up the greatest comic book superhero ensemble of all time, Warner/DC did precisely that, leaving the Justice League characters in tatters, with only Wonder Woman intact out of the core trinity, and few holding out hope for the secondary character of Aquaman, or desperately anticipating his solo debut in spite of actor Jason Momoa's likeably cocky larger-than-life Dwayne Johnson-esque portrayal of the same.
