If you were wondering where the movie's $160 million was mostly spent, here's your answer. Arthur rides along with Mera in an underwater vessel as they arrive back at Atlantis.

As rough as much of this trailer's CGI looks, this really captures the wondrous, Avatar-esque vibe James Wan was clearly shooting for. It's obvious a ton of care has been put into the under-the-sea world-building, from the jellyfish-like structures to the domesticated sea turtles and sharks.

If the movie has any hope of truly capturing the public's imagination, it's these sequences which need to be emphasised in the marketing.
