While residents of the USA wait with bated breath for the theatrical release of Aquaman, Warner Bros. dropped some extra goodies to tide you over.

In this newly released [obviously for the international market] featurette, we get a little bit of everything: Jason Momoa and Amber Heard chat a bit about director James Wan, Wan talks about the weapons of Atlantis, AND- as well as a little bonus, that second [extended] trailer shown during the WB panel at San Diego Comic Con 2018.

The trailer, which is what sold us on the notion that James Wan is maybe as big of a fan of Disney's Atlantis: The Lost Empire as we are:

Some nice glowly Atlantean writing there, very reminiscent of the Disney animated film

Probably the most exciting part from the extended trailer- seeing Nicole Kidman as Queen Atlanna kicking some serious ass with a trident.

Sure looks like that scene in "Atlantis: The Lost Empire" when the magic crystal did it's job and defended the city.
