To me, it looks like Namor's costume and fighting style have some clear elements of / references to Mexican wrestling culture and I love it.
I read somewhere that the Talokil (Talotek?) hand symbol salute may be a reference to a cartoon that's popular in Mexico (I'm sorry, I don't remember which one), but it also looks like Namor's shark skull throne and I LOVE it.
AND the track on Goranssons's score that introduces Namor (aptly titled "Namor") has some early-mid 20th century American orchestral sounds and motifs that have been used in film history to evoke being under water (light lilting flutes, oboes, muted trumpets etc., like one might hear in old episodes of Flipper or a Jules Verne film adaptation or an early Bond film involving SCUBA diving) accompanying the moody conch shell phrases. It really stands out relative to the rest of the score, which to me makes it feel like a direct nod to the 1939 origin of the character in the comics and I LOVE IT.
I don't think I've been this captured by a film or score since Gladiator or Avatar.
