Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom is the 2023 sequel to 2018's Aquaman. It is the 15th and final movie in the DC Extended Universe (or DCEU; future films are labeled as the DCU). Of those 15 films, the first Aquaman movie made the most money, so it was guaranteed a sequel. What happened? Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom (also called Aquaman 2) opened on December 22 to smaller than expected audiences and sank like a rock in the weeks thereafter. The movie barely broke even on its budget and marketing costs, and is considered a flop. Critics didn't care for it, either. Let's find out why with an Honest Trailer. We know from the start what Screen Junkies think of the movies, because they open this video with a string of urine jokes. They tried to describe the plot, but I was so confused I went elsewhere to read it in text, and I'm still confused. Maybe if you saw the movie, you'll understand a little better.
