"He has the potential to be badass!" - Zack Snyder

This morning, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice director Zack Snyder called the Detroit radio station 97.1 The Ticket. Zack gave the hosts a ring because he heard them making disparaging remarks about Aquaman. He didn't care for that one bit and felt obligated to give them a ring in order to defend the King of the Seven Seas. Click on link below to listen.

On air, when he was asked “Is this Zack Snyder?” he said “Hey, it’s Zack, yeah. … Yeah, yeah I’m on my way to the set right now and I was listening to you guys on the radio.”
HEAR THE COMPLETE INTERVIEW HERE.
Zack said Aquaman’s cool ability is that he could “cut the flesh of Superman if they came in contact … he’s super strong … It’s not to say that he’s in the movie or anything like that but … he has the potential to be badass.”

Guys - that was Zack Snyder on the phone. No if, ands or buts. We confirmed it through multiple sources.

Great find, indeed.

That's him, alright!

My sources say Aquaman may or may not be in the film, and if he is an actor will indeed play him.

ALegendaryPanda - 8/8/2014, 10:20 AM

Aquaman is a badass and it's about time people start to realize that!

MrBlackJack - 8/8/2014, 10:20 AM

He's in the movie Zack, no sense in denying it. WB [frick]ed up when trying to hide it.

Pasto - 8/8/2014, 10:21 AM

@MrCBM
Funny how your sources sound exactly like my sources...

I think it's awesome that he did this too. He's one of the lucky fanboys who actually broke through and gets to live out the dream.

@Jollem Pretty much, but that just means he's vulnerable. Not necessarily any less powerful.

Highflyer - 8/8/2014, 10:25 AM

If only there was a time machine so I could jump to 2016 so all this torture could end.

BlackIceJoe - 8/8/2014, 10:25 AM

Way to go bro. I can't wait until people see Aquaman is a beast. The reason Aquaman is looked down on is because of the show Stupid I mean Super Friends. He was great before that show. But post that show no one read the comics. Even Batman became a joke because that show. It wasn't until the Dark Knight Returns that he got his respect back. Aquaman has had great comic story's during the eighths and nineties. Then he got reimagined again in the 2000s. Even then still people thought he sucked. He has become more famous from the New 52 but nothing really new was added. Because before that he was awesome. But for whatever reason people decided to pick up his comic series. I personally liked him more before the New 52. But what do I know. If people are starting to like him that's great.

matthuliz - 8/8/2014, 10:26 AM

He's badass all right!

McGee - 8/8/2014, 10:27 AM

I would die with a smile on my face if they protrayed Aquaman as having complete control of water....meaning he could pull water out of our bodies like Magneto does with iron in our blood.

Klone - 8/8/2014, 10:29 AM

Seems pretty [frick]ing unnecessary.

McGee - 8/8/2014, 10:29 AM

The water comes rushing out of the pores and leaves you dead. Looking like a wrinkled husk of your former self.
