Would Marvel dare introduce Namor to their movies, especially when there's an Aquaman movie coming up?

I mean, there's no way for them to do it without him looking like Marvel's Aquaman ripoff, which would probably taint the character permanantly.

He's a douchebag to everyone. Douchebag has been one of his most defining characteristics for 70 years.

The one good thing about Namor is that he makes it really easy to spot Marvel casuals, since only the most blind Marveldrones will defend him.

I mean, like, in movies.

Aquaman already has the Superfriends stigma going against him, being called a ripoff would just be salt in the wound.
>>
>>82594010
Yes they do.

We just had a movie from both companies where
>A battle in Africa gone wrong ignites controversy
>a wealthy non-powered hero in armor is trying to keep a peak superpowered being in check
>begins with a scene of said wealthy hero's parents dying
>a struggle hinging on the mother of the hero in the final act

Obviously the movies went their own way, but doppelganger media already exists all over the place, this would be no different.

But. That would just be saying the truth. He is the ripoff.

Aquaman was the best part of the Superfriends.
>>
>>82594580
It's kind of funny because Aquaman is the only superhero who came out after his Marvel counterpart. Though "ripoff" is a strong word. Nobody ever gave a shit about Namor, and a water guy being from Atlantis is pretty standard.

However, the fact remains that all normies know who Aquaman is. They may not like him, but they know him. If Namor shows up everyone will immediately think of him as an Aquaman ripoff; that's mostly why nobody uses him nowadays.

It's pretty funny.
>>
>>82594713
Aquaman already appeared in a movie so that argument is out the window. They'd have to beat it with quality which shouldn't be difficult.

>>82594756

Cartoon Network pretty much spent the 90s doing it.

Nah, Namor will always look like the shitty ripoff. There's no way they can pump out a Namor movie before DC anyway, so unless they slip him in like Fox did Quicksilver, he's fucked. And if Aquaman is successful then Namor's going the way of the Fantastic Four.

She turns him down because she doesn't want to betray her Husband and family, not because she doesn't want to be with Namor.

Debatable. Snyder isn't directing Aquaman, Flash, Wonder Woman, or Skwad. MCUcks could only count on BvS being terrible because everyone knows Snyder couldn't direct his way out of a paper bag. Skwad already looks better than any MCU movie except maybe CA:FA.

you do know 90% of marvel characters are rip-offs of DC characters, right?

This isn't a secret. DC is a heavy inspiration for Marvel.

So, considering the fact that people like OP who don't know this, yes they will look like they're ripping off DC. but they have no reason too. DC is doing shit in the box office while Marvel is debateably more popular than star wars at this point.

I guess this sums up to; yes, but also no.
