Green Lantern (Movie)

[Adeniz19]

More details of this have been coming out, so I figured it deserves it's own thread. A dude over at IESB has read the script and here is a bit of what he thinks:

From the first major beat of the story - that is sure to bring a tear - to the revelations at the end of the movie that easily set up prequels as well as sequels this script has it all. Also, unlike other recent superhero movies, this Green Lantern story has science fiction elements such as visiting other planets and major space battles.

It's a quick read and is a mere 109 pages but is action packed from the beginning to end. It has the potential to be bigger than Iron Man or maybe even The Dark Knight.

The script, if greenlit, is a sure-fire hit for fan boys, but in scale it's big, VERY big, and we are hearing rumors that it may be too big for the director currently attached, Greg Berlanti.

I really hope this gets the greenlight. looking forward to it.

[unwritten]

Me too. I <3 GL.

[Adeniz19]

I like the idea of introducing other DC characters

[Bob Payne]

I'm truly surprised they're not doing John Stewart. I thought maybe it was time for a black superhero besides hancock.

[Deadwomb88]

Thats alot of praise. I'll believe it when I see it.

[buysoap]

Hal is better than John anyway.

[Deadwomb88]

Hal is better than John anyway.

Much better.

[drudo182]

I was hoping for a Green Arrow thread...

[FondestMemory]

there is a green arrow movie in the works.

kinda.

[drudo182]

there is a green arrow movie in the works.

kinda.

Yeah, I heard about that but it sounded terrible. The idea that I heard at least.

[FondestMemory]

yeah. super max, or some shit like that.

it's a prison movie. with green arrow.

i never fully understood the concept of it. but then again, it didn't interest me enough to look into it at all.

[drudo182]

yeah. super max, or some shit like that.

Ugh, yeah. Sounded awful. I think Goyer was writing it or something.

[dissident]

seth rogen wrote this right? i just don't see him being successful at this type of movie and i fucking love seth rogen. kevin smith attempted it and gave up halfway through because it's simply not his style, i see rogen having the same issue or just making an average to bad superhero movie.

edit: i guess not, i could have sworn i heard rogen was heavily involved in this.

[dissident]

oh... honest mistake for someone who knows almost nothing about comics.

[drudo182]

oh... honest mistake for someone who knows almost nothing about comics.

Understandable. Too many things with Green starting off in the title.

I used to always get Lantern and Arrow mixed up. Had to think about it first.

[FondestMemory]

i actually think rogen and evan will be able to write a solid green hornet movie.

i'm just not sold on rogen playing the lead. i definitely think they'll pull off a solid script with the direction they're taking it though.

[fluke182]

That write up gets me very excited, and I love the GL community. I think it would have been a huge mistake to start with John Stewart because Hal Jordan is clearly the dominant GL. This movie could turn into such a huge thing if done right. It almost has limitless story opportunities that they can go into with the massive amount of GL Corps members, the great Rogue's Gallery, and the massive ups and downs Hal goes through.

Count me in.

[SkyHeldUpByStar]

Greg Berlanti the Everwood guy? Interesting choice.

[FondestMemory]

if they play their cards right, they can put together a great franchise with this.

of all the superheroes, this will be the easiest to recast without missing a beat. carry one lead for a while, when he's done, just switch characters.

[Getup and Dance]

I heard this migh be with the Green Lantern Corp, which I am somewhat excited for. That means they could have a John Stewart/Guy Gardner spin off movies later.

[Adeniz19]

yea if you click that link it has the list of characers :

Martin Jordan
Hal Jordan/Green Lantern
Thomas Kalmuka
Carl Ferris
Carol Ferris
Kilowog
Tomar-Re
Abin Sur
Thaal Sinestro
The Guardians
Legion
Hector Hammond


Then, it goes on to say Gardner will be in it and have a bigger role in a 2nd film

[drudo182]

Greg Berlanti the Everwood guy? Interesting choice.

Everwood was great!

I liked seasons three and four the best probably, and he had left after that point, but he created one amazing show.

[Getup and Dance]

Who do you guys think would make a good Green Lantern?

I could see Matt Damon either pulling off Hal Jordan or Guy Gardner. Even though he might be a little short to play a super hero role.

[SkyHeldUpByStar]

Everwood was great!

I liked seasons three and four the best probably, and he had left after that point, but he created one amazing show.
Agreed. I loved Everwood so much. It's one of the very few WB shows I would openly admit to liking because it was written so well. Harold was one of my favorite characters because I loved his and Andy's relationship and Harold's urge to do what's right despite how stubborn he was. I also loved how the show was often able to hit just the right emotional pitch without coming off as cheesy. That first season was a heart breaker. The show still impresses me for having the cojones to bring Collin out of his coma and actually make him a really likable kid who wants to be Ephraim's friend only to turn around and kill him off.

5 Badass Reasons Why Fans Will Love The Green Lantern Movie: http://www.firstshowing.net/2008/10/07/5-reasons-why-fans-will-love-the-green-lantern-movie/


Honestly, I'm really not sure why they went with Legion as the main villain. He was in ONE Green Lantern story (Emerald Dawn) and then he got retconned... twice. Granted, he's a being made of yellow, so there's that, but come on. In the over 50 years that Green Lantern has existed they couldn't find a better villain? I'm ok with them not using Sinestro as a villain in the first movie (though he better be a villain at some point), but Legion? They could do better than that. That's not B-List or C-List, that's a friggin' D-List character.

However, if everything else they say is true, bring it on.

[buysoap]

http://www.slashfilm.com/wp/wp-content/images/ryangoslinggreenlantern-439x332.jpg

I'm sold I like him

I was already sold at the words GREEN LANTERN and movie though

[buysoap]

I'm sold I like him

I'm nervous :-( Green Lantern is my favorite DC superhero. I think he's super duper! And I really want this movie to be amazing. But Legion as the villain, and Ryan Gosling as Hal? Maybe if Gosling pumped up a bit and acted a little less reserved. Hal is a pimp. I mean, I'm happy that they are trying to get people who can actually act for modern super hero movies instead of just meat puppets, but I'm not 100% sold on Golsing. Then again, I was never 100% on Heath as Joker until I saw the movie :shrug:

[fluke182]

I have to admit, I love Gosling as Hal Jordan. I think that's stellar casting.

[drudo182]

I'm in if Gosling is in this. Love that guy.

[gilatron5000]

I'm jazzed for Gosling, but I would have loved to see David Boreanaz as GL, he's been a pick of mine for years. It's nice to see his name considered, though.

I'm truly surprised they're not doing John Stewart. I thought maybe it was time for a black superhero besides hancock....And Blade(x 3), and Storm(x 3), and Frozone, and Catwoman... then there are the lesser known ones like Steel, Blankman and Meteor Man.

[drudo182]

Hhha. Meteor Man and Blank Man. What a classy pair of heroes.

You absolutely cannot beat Meteor Man. Is it too early to call it the greatest superhero movie of all time? I mean come on, part of its cast on the poster wasn't a single actor. No, that wouldn't be enough. It's an entire R&B group listed under the band persona.

You just can't beat that.

I have to confess I enjoyed meteor-man as a child. . . and Now I'm sad


IF you like minority super-heroes than do I have the book for you. Nearly the entire Reginald Hudlin run of Black Panther is essentially a campaign to make every single African-American/ black marvel super hero relevant again. He even gave the Ebony Blade to T'Challa from the Black Knight, which of course just fucked up continity when BlacK Knight still has that sword in Excailbur.

Personally, I'm really pulling for Christopher Nolan to pull a fast one on everyone, replace Bale as Bruce Wayne with some unknown person with long blonde hair and make a Batman movie starring Azrael. There is no way that would be poorly received.

[gilatron5000]

God, the Nineties didn't leave anyone unscathed. Superman grew a mullet, Batman got a utility garter belt, Hal went crazy, and I'm fairly sure 20 Flashes died.

[buysoap]

Poor Hal. It wasn't his fault though! Superman had no one to blame for his mullet but himself.

[gilatron5000]

Superman actually has to find Mongul to cut his hair. He's the only person strong enough to cut his hair and he has to use black kryptonite to do it. Also, before he'll do it for Superman, Supes has to beat him in an arm wrestling match. We should just be happy with the fact that Superman ever gets his hair cut.

Those are tiny nubs of hair. Supes has some serious locks of hair.

There's also going to be an animated Green Lantern movie. FYI.

December 17, 2010!!!

[Adeniz19]

Warner Bros. Pictures (http://www.superherohype.com/news/greenlanternnews.php?id=8177#) is scheduled to begin filming The Green Lantern (http://www.comingsoon.net/films.php?id=38858) in mid-September in Australia, reports Production Weekly.

To be directed by Martin Campbell, the comic book adaptation is targeted for a December 17, 2010 release.

[Mirrorsandfevers]

Sounds good.

[Adeniz19]

budget is going to be around 150 million, with filming to now start in november

http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/hr/content_display/film/news/e3i8ff4031e6fcd4bbcc4b63118cb6b7e07

[Adeniz19]

Release is getting pushed back to June 17, 2011. I guess it makes more sense to release it during the summer, but it's a bummer we have to wait 6 more months.

Also, rumors that Bradley Cooper might get cast as Hal.

http://www.aceshowbiz.com/images/events/JTM-015503.jpg

I'm not really sure how I feel about him being cast. All he's really done is comedies and he's pretty much just gotten dick characters, from the roles I have seen. I guess he does look the part, though.

[Adeniz19]

More Hal casting rumors. Sam Worthington says he has been in contact with Campbell about playing the part, but is waiting to read the final script.

http://www.ambrosia.com.br/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/sam_worthington.jpg

I gotta say, out of all the rumors, I might like him the best. He's also going to be in a lot of huge films within the next couple years (Terminator, Cameron's Avatar, and Clash of the Titans), so by the time this does get out in theaters he might have more name recognition.

[Mirrorsandfevers]

Apparently it's going to be "bigger than Spiderman"

here's a pretty clever fan made trailer:

_hTiRnqnvDs

[Red Lion]

that's pretty great.... that dude really likes GL! Looks better than lots of crap out there.

[WakingTheMisery]

I thought this was funny.

We’ve already established that Green Lantern is a pretty gay idea for a movie, considering his origin is that an alien comes to Earth, finds a young man who is “without fear,” and gives him a power ring. That’s a metaphor for priest molestation if I’ve ever heard one. Nonetheless, the movie is happening. SciFi Wire recently talked to screenwriter (for now) Marc Guggenheim, who says no one has been cast yet. He doesn’t reveal much, but promises to take “a very loving and respectful approach.”

To me that sounds a lot like a tacit admission that (as once rumored) Ryan Gosling will be playing the lead. In honor of this story, here are other facts you may not know about Ryan Gosling’s Green Lantern:

* Ryan Gosling’s Green Lantern loves to hold hands, but saves interlocking fingers for his special lady.
* Ryan Gosling’s Green Lantern prefers yellow mustard to brown - too spicy!
* Among his hobbies, Ryan Gosling’s Green Lantern lists “gettin’ crazy with the swivel chair.”
* Ryan Gosling’s Green Lantern picks wildflowers for the widow down the street, because gifts mean more without a special occasion.
* Favorite color: periwinkle. Favorite word too!
* Just white bread for him, thanks.
* Ryan Gosling’s Green Lantern once jumped in a puddle on a dare.
* Ryan Gosling’s Green Lantern commutes to Wal-Mart to buy censored CDs.
* Ryan Gosling’s Green Lantern holds the ropes when the neighborhood girls play double dutch, and even invented some new chants. They all end in ‘best friends forever.’
* Ryan Gosling’s Green Lantern won’t kill that spider for you, but he’ll capture it and set it free.
* Between meals, Ryan Gosling’s Green Lantern entertains the soup kitchen crowd on the harmonica.
* Ryan Gosling’s Green Lantern thinks your new tattoo makes you look dangerous. In a good way.
* When he’s feeling adventurous, Ryan Gosling’s Green Lantern puts his straw through the bottom of the Capri Sun and drinks it upside down.
* Ryan Gosling’s Green Lantern doesn’t trade lunches, but he’s happy to share.
* Ryan Gosling’s Green Lantern loves cinnamon.
* Ryan Gosling’s Green Lantern Swiffers when stressed.

Try the Wednesday is New Comic Book Day thread. We talk about it there all the time.

[Vincewithouthee]

I'm still not sure how I feel about the casting of Reynolds, mostly because he's Deadpool too. We'll see.

If this movie sucks I'll be so pissed. GL's always been my favorite. If it is a good I'm hoping there will eventually be a trilogy that doesn't suck either.

[Why Bother?]

Yeah it's weird. Has it happened before with another actor?

Well Hugh Jackman played Wolverine and Van Helsing but I don't think that counts.

[Greg.Kushlan]

Ryan Reynolds as Hal Jordan? Lame.

Yeah it's weird. Has it happened before with another actor?
I'm not sure, I know there was a lot of talk on how he's the first one to do both a DC and Marvel film though.

Ryan Reynolds doesn't deserve one comic book role, let alone two. Can't wait for him to ruin Green Lantern as well.

I need to see the suit in action. Not terrible, but really nothing really great.

[Adeniz19]

Oh god, that really looks bad.
Yea, I see what they are trying to do, but I just don't know yet. The mask does look like something of an after thought that they just threw in there at the last minute. I guess we'll have to wait and see how it actually looks in the movie.

[drudo182]

It will probably look a lot better when we actually see it in motion.

More photos here (http://www.slashfilm.com/2010/07/15/more-green-lantern-pics-arrive/).

[Prestonxsmith]

Suit actually looks to be apart of his body. That makes much more sense.

[Adeniz19]

It will probably look a lot better when we actually see it in motion.

More photos here (http://www.slashfilm.com/2010/07/15/more-green-lantern-pics-arrive/).omgz they found abin sur's body!

The mask totally looks like it was painted on. In MS Paint.

Warner Bros. used its 90-minute panel at Comic-Con to introduce Green Lantern to the geek masses by showing some footage and bringing stars Ryan Reynolds, Blake Lively, Mark Strong, and Peter Sarsgaard to chat up the DC Comics superhero saga about a pilot recruited to an intergalactic police force armed with mystical power rings. Perhaps the moment in the tease of film that had the greatest buzz-impact on the audience was when Reynolds used his power ring to conjure a giant green fist to punch out bad guys, evoking a classic image from the comics.

The reel suggested a movie of cosmic scope. There were glimpses of other members of the Green Lantern Corps. as well as a look at the planet of Oa, home to the Guardians of the Universe, which oversees the emerald-clad peacekeepers.

Director Martin Campbell (Casino Royale) talked about Green Lantern’s costume and even referenced its unveiling on the cover of EW’s Comic-Con issue (http://popwatch.ew.com/2010/07/15/green-lantern-ryan-reynolds/). The helmer was excited by the design though he also called it “a work in progress.… It will eventually look very cool.”
Ryan Reynolds –- sporting a Green Lantern ring that he wore during production (he gave it away to a contest winner) — charmed the estimated crowd of 6,000 by satisfying a young boy’s request to recite Green Lantern’s oath. In a grave voice, Reynolds intoned: “In brightest day, in blackest night/No evil shall escape my sight/Let those who worship evil’s might/Beware my power… Green Lantern’s light!” The crowd roared.

In an awkward moment, Reynolds disclosed that a character from the Green Lantern mythos named Parallax will appear in the film. Then, nervously, he added “I better be allowed to say that.” Judging from the silence from his director and producers, it appeared that he wasn’t.

[sweetforever]

I'd like to see the some of the footage shown at Comic Con

[drudo182]

Same. I wish they'd post these clips online afterwards...

[Adeniz19]

there was also concept art of boodika, princess iolande, hannu, salaak, etc, but it looks like all the websites they were posted on took them down, which leads me to believe they were legit. most of them looked pretty damn sweet.

parallax has been confirmed to be in the movie... so glad they decided not to use legion

[WakingTheMisery]

Seems like they are trying to jam way too many characters into this.

[drudo182]

No discussion on this footage? Not sure I'm liking Reynolds in this trailer.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=RrBwKMxhtXQ

[DickfaceChillah]

Liking? That is some of the most embarrassingly bad things I've ever seen. Everything about this looks bad. I'm so embarrassed.

[WakingTheMisery]

Will not be watching.

[wall e]

Oh wow.

[jwicklun]

Lets hope the trailer is better than that footage. The costume looks terrible.

[Alou]

Oh fuck that looks horrible.

[jwicklun]

Looks like they want to go with the cheesy route with this movie. Bad. Very bad.

[wall e]

Wolverine Origins came to mind

[sweetforever]

Hmm that footage has me on the fence about this movie.

[drudo182]

Some of it looks cool and some of it looks awful, like that first shot of him turning into the costume.

[batmannj]

I'll reserve judgment until I see some sort of official trailer, but wow does that look bad.

[Recovery Room]

This looks horrendous.

[popdisaster00]

Wouldn't they still be improving the effects? Or at least maybe they will if everyone expresses how bad it looks

[sweezy]

looks bad but i was never a lantern fan

[Thomas Balkcom]

Trailer:

qJABsJQCZHA

[jwicklun]

Meh trailer. And good lord at Blake Lively's acting.

[sweetforever]

Trailer looks a little bit better than the footage from ET

[Jason Tate]

Looks better than Captain America. That's not saying much.

[dellico]

It looks like it's going to be a rough summer

[mantipede]

His costume looks like it's from MS Paint. What a joke.

[Smash Adams]

Has anyone in the history of the world ever said "Let's get these pants off and fly some planes"

[deadkidsean]

blake lively as a fighter pilot haabahahah

[IamTheINDUSTRY]

Has anyone in the history of the world ever said "Let's get these pants off and fly some planes"

i literally just got done saying that very thing to my mom.

[Greg.Kushlan]

This looks Spider-Man Trilogy bad. I guess I'm not seeing anything next summer.

[Adeniz19]

I don't think the trailer is bad... but it doesn't really get me amped for the movie either. I think it is the cgi that bothers me more than anything. Hopefully it looks better in theaters

[flask]

This looks Spider-Man Trilogy bad. I guess I'm not seeing anything next summer.

But the spider-man trilogy isn't bad...just the last movie. If anything, I'd say this looks spider-man 3 bad.

Its just....THAT SUIT. Thats really the only thing bothering me but it just looks so bad.

[Adeniz19]

The suit doesn't look that bad in the last scene where he is swaying his arms back and forth. It actually looks somewhat natural there. Too bad that's not the case for the rest of the trailer

[jwicklun]

Dunno. I was expecting Iron Man to be bad. Hopefully this movie proves me wrong.

[FallenEmpyr]

Trailer:

qJABsJQCZHA

This trailer doesn't look as bad. I'll probably only see this because Ryan Reynolds is fucking awesome and Blake Lively is sooo hot.

[drudo182]

Doesn't look that bad. I'll still be seeing it but Blake Lively did look awful in the two seconds we saw her in this trailer. I've read several times how the script apparently isn't goofy at all and the trailer doesn't do the movie justice. We'll see. I'm excited.

[Recovery Room]

Holy LOL, I don't even know where to begin, looks so bad.

Disappointing, I was looking forward to this one.

[Jason Tate]

But the spider-man trilogy isn't bad...just the last movie. If anything, I'd say this looks spider-man 3 bad.

Its just....THAT SUIT. Thats really the only thing bothering me but it just looks so bad.
The Spider-Man trilogy is pretty bad. People have hyped it up ... but the first 2 movies suck too.

[Jason Tate]

I am amazed at how many words Blake Lively can get out of the side of her mouth.

[Greg.Kushlan]

But the spider-man trilogy isn't bad...just the last movie. If anything, I'd say this looks spider-man 3 bad.

I hated all 3 of the Raimi movies, with Alfred Molina being the only good thing about any of them.

Hal Jordan comes off as a fratboy, Abin Sur looks awful, and the villan looks lame too.

Rumors that Hal dosen't make it to Oa until the last 20 minutes for sequel set up dosen't help things either.

[Greg.Kushlan]

The Spider-Man trilogy is pretty bad. People have hyped it up ... but the first 2 movies suck too.

Thank you! I was arguing this with my roommates girlfriend last night.

[Jason Tate]

Thank you! I was arguing this with my roommates girlfriend last night.
Oh yeah! Spider-Man haters unite! Haha. Somehow every super hero movie thread has this common element. The Dark Knight will inevitably be brought up too.

[SkyHeldUpByStar]

Isn't The Dark Knight great?

[wall e]

This movie was supposed to be awesome, but the trailer makes it look like Nickelodeon Studios tried to remake Iron Man.

[flask]

Oh yeah! Spider-Man haters unite! Haha. Somehow every super hero movie thread has this common element. The Dark Knight will inevitably be brought up too.

Spider-Man 2 is my favorite super hero movie. :shrug:
Yeah its hyped but personally I feel its hyped for good reason. To each their own though.

[jwicklun]

Spiderman 1 was ok, Spiderman 2 was great, Spiderman 3 was unspeakable. This just reminds me of the Fantastic 4 movies. Not good.

[firewater]

I mean it is an outer-space, superhero movie with aliens. I can't see how the Green Lantern's costume wouldn't come off as sorta cheesy. I doubt it will be as dumb as the Fantastic Four movies were. I just don't believe that some superhero movies can be compared to others. Obviously the style of this movie can't be compared to The Dark Knight; but an Iron Man comparison would make more sense. Regardless, it will probably make a ton of money come summer.

[jaimage]

Considering that they've been really highlighting the fact that movie is 99% post-production effects, I'm sure they're not completed yet. I think the trailer looks great, it's maybe focusing on the comedy a little too much but the space shots and scenes on Oa look mind blowing already, with the other lanterns looking soooo awesome (Sinestro is the man and Kilowog looks perfect). And with Parallax in the movie there's no way it can be too goofy.

I'm still psyched for this. Not loving the pupils on the suit, though.

[DickfaceChillah]

Spider-Man 2 is my favorite super hero movie. :shrug:
Yeah its hyped but personally I feel its hyped for good reason. To each their own though.

I think the movie has a fantastic theme, though poorly executed. I do agree that it's quite the flick, but nowhere near what it should have been.

[flask]

Trailer looked slightly better on the big screen. And the crowd actually cheered when it came on. I don't think it'll be a great movie, I'm just hoping it'll at least be an entertaining one.

[I am Mick]

I didn't think the trailer looked so bad, though I haven't read any of the comics so I'm not really one to judge

[batmannj]

I just wish we weren't getting another Ryan Reynolds standard appearance where it's just him being himself with a dash of Hal Jordan thrown in.

[Jason Tate]

Character seems to be just like the Hal Jordan that was in that "Green Lantern: First Flight" movie thing I watched for some reason.

[PaulsRightNut]

I don't even like DC but the previews for this look really awesome

[domotime2]

my crowd seemed to favor Green Hornet over Green Lantern. the preview didn't get me excited about Green lantern at all.

[jwicklun]

One ring to rule them all...

[Brandon Allin]

I'll give this a chance, but it just doesn't look any good to me.

[batmannj]

I'm reading Blackest Night right now, I'm thinking that doing this is getting more amped up for this movie because it's reintroducing the mythos of Green Lantern. I just hope that it doesn't get too crazy with all the different characters they are trying to introduce.

[drudo182]

I'm reading Blackest Night right now, I'm thinking that doing this is getting more amped up for this movie because it's reintroducing the mythos of Green Lantern. I just hope that it doesn't get too crazy with all the different characters they are trying to introduce.

What else do you have to read for Blackest Night to work the best. Doesn't it incorporate several other issues not included or am I crazy?

[WakingTheMisery]

What else do you have to read for Blackest Night to work the best. Doesn't it incorporate several other issues not included or am I crazy?

There are going to be a lot of characters you won't recognize that died years and years ago. There was a prelude that kinda gives you an idea though.

[wall e]

Blackest Night is amazing. Read Identity Crisis and stuff like that first though

http://trailers.apple.com/trailers/wb/greenlantern/

Abridged Wonder-Con footage. Nice to see someone putting this online for people who don't/can't go to these things. Best stuff I've seen so far.

[From: Skulls]

Yeah I'll see this.

[TSLROCKS]

I think this looks pretty good. Definitely gonna catch this in theaters

[Adeniz19]

Stoked. Wondercon footage has a lot more of a serious tone to it and the cgi looks a bit better

[Recovery Room]

Yeah, that footage has me far more excited than that first trailer.

[I am Mick]

Wondercon footage looks pretty cool. Not wild about R-Squared and I haven't read any of the comics, so I'm not all that stoked.

[sweetforever]

WonderCon footage looks pretty decent.

[wernier]

Nice movie. But I like to read via comics.

Well, I already knew Blake was hot.

Robert Meyer Burnett (director of Free Enterprise) on Twitter (http://twitter.com/#%21/burnettrm): GREEN LANTERN fucking ROCKED. The 3D was AWESOME. As a lifelong DC fan, the opening ten minutes made me squeal like schoolgirl. … Believe it. The first ten minutes will make you believe. The 3D is also outstanding. … GREEN LANTERN was terrific fun. The fact that it works at all is a miracle, but it really does cook. The first ten minutes sold me. … The 3D in the opening ten minutes is wonderful. But YOU MUST see it with polarized glasses. The color is great. … It’s not campy at all. The humor is earned. And Mark Strong as Sinestro was AWESOME. … I LOVED GREEN LANTERN. Don’t know why, but it kinda’ felt like THE LAST STARFIGHTER. I know…”Huh?!? What?!?” … it really did feel like an 80′s movie, circa ’84… Weird. … BTW…In LexG parlance…Blake Lively…LOOK AT HER. SMOOOOOKING hot.

Game comes out tomorrow. Very excited to play it.

[drudo182]

Pretty disappointed in all the reviews so far.

[Smash Adams]

But are you surprised?

[Gaugzilla]

Yea, not too surprising. All the superhero movies coming can't be winners. This looked like this was the one that would be "Fantastic Four" among the other ones.

[deadkidsean]

I sort-of love that this is getting shitted on. Not because I didn't want it to be good. Of course I did. But it helps me cope with the fact that I, personally, have thought every trailer and spot fucking blew hard.

[Recovery Room]

I was not expecting the bad reviews after the last trailer and the first few blurbs that were tweeted out.

But oh well, I figured it'd suck from the beginning -- now I just won't be pleasantly surprised.

[SlappedActor]

I sort-of love that this is getting shitted on. Not because I didn't want it to be good. Of course I did. But it helps me cope with the fact that I, personally, have thought every trailer and spot fucking blew hard.

My thoughts exactly.

[jwicklun]

Well that's disappointing. Still, a part of me still wants to see it.

[Shakriel]

Well the negative reviews just reinforces my desire not to see this. I thought it had promise at first, but with every subsequent trailer, I just turned further away.

[Vincewithouthee]

I still want to see this since I was the biggest Green Lantern fan as a kid, but I haven't heard anything positive about this movie so far outside of the effects (which I couldn't care less about). It's a huge shame really but it's not surprising. I'm probably going to give it a shot but I'm not sure if I can convince any of my friends to come with.

[domotime2]

call me captain hindsight, but i'm confused at why people were pumping this movie up. i heard people who don't normally like superhero movies saying they can't wait and i thought...woah woah why? have u seen what it looks like

[SlappedActor]

Same here... Also, I have long despised the idea of CG suits. No reason why they couldn't have gone practical with CG enhancements (if necessary). Either way, I had no faith in the script considering Greg Berlanti was the main driving force behind the movie.

[Jason Tate]

It will be between this and Captain America for worse comic movie of the year.

Thor is 78% on RT.....if you're talking review-wise.

[Full Effect Ed]

Thor is 78% on RT.....if you're talking review-wise.

Im not, if he is then yes...i see a lot of people hating it.
Personally I cant wait, ive been waiting for this film since I was in high school!

[WarpSpeedChewy]

Just got back from a screening. Such a disappointing movie. Action and effects are great as is Ryan Reynolds and Mark Strong. Everything else, story, dialogue, a lot of the other performances were not good. First time seeing a 3D movie and from how it was done, it'll be my last. It's a bit of a mess.

[jwicklun]

This could be a flop domestically, but probably will make bank overseas.

[WarpSpeedChewy]

I do still hope they make a sequel to it. They have so much to built with and they set up the mythology of it right. Just not the best start to a franchise.

How is Sarsgaard? He's really the only positive expectation I have.

[drudo182]

I've enjoyed the last few trailers and the mythology trailer so I am a bit surprised that this is getting trashed so bad. I'll still be seeing it this weekend though. 3D or not is the question.

[Trainsaw]

I have a feeling Captain America will be pretty decent, this on the other hand looks bad. Sucks for Reynolds but he needs to get on that deadpool movie

[WarpSpeedChewy]

How is Sarsgaard? He's really the only positive expectation I have.
He's ok. Maybe a little below average but he pulls off the creep factor. Nothing special about his performance.

Mark Strong's performance actually makes me excited for a sequel though.

[colorlesscliche]

I thought the entire cast was below average. Should you stay after the credits? Yes

[jbaseball44]

reviews have been pretty negative, doubt i'll end up seeing it

[SkyHeldUpByStar]

Sorry Hans, but Thor already won that award

Thor is 78% on RT.....if you're talking review-wise.
What about Green Hornet? I know that one started out on the radio before becoming a comic, but I remember the movie being critically reviled for the most part when it came out. Hasn't been the best year for comic movies so far.

[jwicklun]

Thor and X-Men were pretty well received. It's Green Lantern that has been reviled, and jury is still out on Captain America.

[SkyHeldUpByStar]

True enough. I just feel like there's been a bit of a backlash to Thor and X-Men after their initial releases. I read a lot of complaints....though I guess I should expect that since it's the internet.

[jwicklun]

I still have yet to see both movies. I don't know what to expect from Captain America, it could be terrible or could be really good.

[SkyHeldUpByStar]

I saw Green Hornet on a plane and didn't actually hate it. It was fricking stupid, but I kinda laughed at it.
Ah, I haven't actually seen it yet myself because of the things I heard. So it's not Ghost Rider bad then.

[ClemTiger0408]

I saw Green Lantern last night at a screening in Indianapolis.

It was sort of cool in some parts, but there were aspects that were so bad that those aspects drown out the rest of the movie.

The CGI was used poorly, it was a total computer generated mess. Ryan Renolds actually wasn't bad at all, you can tell he's a decent actor if he can stand out in a film like this.

I don't know what else to really say about it other than it was pretty bad overall, I wouldn't recommend it to anyone, even (and especially) fans of the comics.

[FondestMemory]

Ah, I haven't actually seen it yet myself because of the things I heard. So it's not Ghost Rider bad then.

nowhere near ghost rider bad. if you enjoy seth rogen, its easy to enjoy, because its very much his movie. if you dont like him, its not even worth bothering.

its not great, but if you take it for an action comedy, its pretty fun and a decently good time.

i could understand somebody loving it or hating it. whereas ghost rider, i can imagine anybody enjoying that train wreck.

[FallenEmpyr]

I'll see this regardless of reviews because Ryan Reynolds is my favorite actor, I'm not expecting much though haha

[deadkidsean]

Why are people shitting on CAPTAIN AMERICA? Looks great, great early buzz.

[batmannj]

I thought the entire cast was below average. Should you stay after the credits? Yes

Will Sinestro be the villain next time around? Assuming there is a sequel of course
