Today on Happy Say Confused, Director James Wong, from Saw and The Conjuring to Fast Seven and now Aquaman.

Hey guys I'm Josh Harrow.

It's welcome to another edition of Happy Sad Confused.

It's another one of those great filmmakers. I love welcoming to the show today and a

first-time happy second-fused guest. So thrilled to have the very talented James

Juan on this episode of Happy Say Fused. He's got a huge honking movie

coming out in about a week. It is Aquaman. You will not be able to get away from it.

It is the latest entry in the DC universe starring none other

than Jason Moa and Amber Heard and Willem de Foe and Patrick Wilson and Nicole Kidman and James Wan at the helm.

Quite an opportunity for James, but he's earned it.

And if you look at his resume, this guy has made a lot of money

for some studios and he's entertained many many audience members thanks to films like

saw insidious the conjuring and Fast Seven and now he finally gets to direct his own superhero film.

He's a guy who loves superheroes, loves comic books,

and has been eyeing this for a while,

and finally got a pretty cool opportunity in Aquaman and he'll explain why but you know to kind

of tease it out a little bit he was excited to kind of create his own world to do the

kind of Star Wars Word of the Rings thing, which a property like an Aquaman can afford a director to world build.

And he did a really great job, I have to say, I was very impressed by the filmmaking behind this one.

It is audacious filmmaking, it is bold filmmaking, it is not a lazy comic book movie, it is an ambitious

one and I think, I know from like a lot of fellow, you know, press people, the early word on it is very good.

People enjoy it.
