We've heard from famed comic book writers, the cast of the film, and people with no ties to the world of comic book movies when it comes to the negative criticisms that plagued Zack Snyder's Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. Now, fellow DC film director James Wan has revealed his thoughts regarding the negativity surrounding Batman v Superman during a recent interview with BadTaste.It"I think it's a world that is so difficult to control, and always expectations of fans are out of this world, right? No pun intended. I know how hard it is, from making Conjuring 2, how much anticipation there is just from the first movie. I think you do the best you can, and tell the best story you can."

That isn't to say that Wan isn't taking note of the criticisms surrounding previous DC films. Batman v Superman was rather a dark film, both literally and figuratively, and fans have been speculating as to whether or not the rest of the upcoming DC Films would follow the same path. Well, that doesn't seem to be the case. During a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly, Wan revealed that Aquaman would be exploring the brighter side of Atlantis. "It won't be very dark...It is at the bottom of the ocean, so I'll use a lot of light!"

Seeing how The Conjuring 2 is set to hit theaters next week, Wan is going to be shifting his focus entirely on the production of Aquaman. It's only a matter of time until Wan can speak more freely about the King of Atlantis and his first solo film. What do you think about James Wan's comments?
