Review of Aquaman

Aquaman (1967–1969)
Despite Too Simple Plots - Cool Cartoon
18 June 2020
Famed Filmation cartoon series of the 1960s.

These days some young people take comic book heroes just so seriously and sometimes they struggle with the old stuff. I am a middle aged guy who sometimes likes to return to more harmless days of my youth by watching Batman (1966), Shazam! (1974) and Aquaman (1967).

Just watched Aquaman (1967) on DVD. Granted on first viewing I did struggle with the too simple plots, but then gave it a second go and totally warmed to the bright remastered colours, the voice artist work and the great music cues! Also, I love live-action Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea (1964), so it is nice to have another 60s underwater series - even if it is a cartoon.

In a nutshell, old boys like me will love going down memory lane but young fans of today's CGI epics might might find it a bit too old school for them.
