![]() I’m guessing he’d favor gDiapers since they’re environmentally friendly. “The first time you do it, you’re seriously considering an adult diaper,” he says. To bring some of the more super scenes to life Ryan is hurtled through the air at speeds of 60 feet per second via a wire rig. Perhaps the first thing he’d like to summon up is a stronger stomach. “We need a circus of Timothy Leary’s to think of things Hal would invent with his ring,” Ryan says in the new issue. Blazing across the cover of Entertainment Weekly’s Comic-Con issue is Ryan as Hal Jordan/The Green Lantern and his iconic ring.įor the uninitiated, Hal is a cocky test pilot turned intergalactic crime fighter thanks to a mysterious ring that can conjure up anything from his wildest dreams. That's not to say that he couldn't be utilized well, but I just personally don't enjoy him as a character.Hot on the heels of reports Ryan Reynolds was injured on the set of “The Green Lantern” comes a first look at the character that landed him in traction. I tried to stick with GLC after Guy had moved to Red Lanterns, but the book just couldn't maintain my interest. ![]() In the comics, he seems too much like a one trick pony. I have never come across a time when John was interesting to me other than in the DCAU, where he's fantastic. Kyle kinda needs Hal in order to exist, Guy Gardner (while awesome) is just not a hero for this kind of movie, and John Stewart is just boring. When GL gets rebooted, I really hope they stick with Hal. Whoever wrote the script for this movie really just wasn't trying.Īnd it's a real shame, because Martin Campbell is quite a capable director, and has directed two of the best James Bond movies ever, but this was not the guy's finest moment. Nobody was particularly pleasant to watch, and the writing was horrible. Blake Lively's character was a miserable interpretation of Carol, and the rest of the cast just fell flat. Plus, just embrace the absurdity and make Parallax the giant space monster instead of an ugly octopus cloud.Īlso, aside from Ryan Reynolds and Michael Clarke Duncan as Kilowog, the casting was atrocious. Hector Hammond and Parallax shouldn't have been involved at all, and I don't think Hammond is a villain that deserves to be in any movie personally. The story for this movie should have been fairly simple: Hal Jordan becomes a member of the Corps, befriends Sinestro, Sinestro takes him to Korugar, Hal and the Corps realize what he's doing, and then Sinestro is your main villain. Parallax should not have been in this movie under any circumstances. Personally, it was just a handful of bad choices, poor writing and poor performances. Complete character progression thrown out the window and shoehorned. It seemed like the Director and the Editor were just not on the same page and the story progressed clunkly.clunkily(?).not very well.ĥ) The after-credits scene pissed me off. Should have kept him looking like a glowing space roach instead of a poop-like storm cloud.Ĥ) The editing was terrible. Interesting concept, poorly executed.ģ) Parallax is far too big of a villain to introduce right off the bat. Oh and a certain unassuming Daily Planet reporter).Ģ) If the suit was just a bit less translucent and more opaque so it looked like an actual would have been better. (Example: There is a narrator at the beginning of the film and you don't know how it is but at the end it's revealed to be the other Earth Lanterns are in it as well. You wanted a connected DC Cinematic Universe? This script did it in really cool ways. ![]() Mainly personal preference and huge expectation since I'm a big GL fan buuuut:ġ) I read the first script of the film and thought it was pretty awesome.
