uhoh-ohno Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Another live action GL movie with Hal Jackson doesn't excite me at all. Mark Strong was wasted on the first one, even though he was one of the few highlights as Sinestro. Mark could have saved BvS as Lex. If this project is supposed to be about the "Corps" Then, I hope it's an ensemble. We don't need another Hal Jordan origin story. Link to post Share on other sites
xrosup Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 It'd probably be about John Stewart's origin story and how he interacts with the 1st GL from Earth, Hal Jordan Link to post Share on other sites

It's been described as "Lethal Weapon" in space with Hal and Jon and other Corps members. But I have no faith in the project due to the screenwriter not writing anything good in almost a decade.

What is it about Green Lantern that makes studios want to play it for laughs? I'm not saying it should be real dark or anything, but it just seems like they would want to go in a different direction, seeing as how the last one turned out. For those interested, I highly recommend GL:The Animated Series. It really is Bruce Timm DCAU at it's finest. Also, if you want to see a good GL Hal Jordan origin story, watch GL: First Flight, and then watch GL: Emerald Knights for good Lantern Corps. vignettes. Link to post Share on other sites
ATRL Administrator Lee!! Posted January 24, 2017 ATRL Administrator Share Posted January 24, 2017 With the way the DCEU has been handled already, there is no way they give GLC the proper treatment it deserves. If they even continue on beyond Justice League at this point. Link to post Share on other sites

Shazam just officially got Dwayne Johnson to play the antagonist in the movie. GCS has been fast tracked with Ayer as director. WB is not going to stop producing these films any time soon. This is the only franchise the have besides the Potterverse, no way they're giving up on it. Link to post Share on other sites

Should WW and JL crash and burn, I could see them taking a step back to reassess and look into fixing what it going wrong on a large scale. Greenlighting projects down the line, even with stars attached, doesn't ensure they come to fruition. See Sinister Six, Fantastic Four 2, the last attempt at Justice League, etc. Who knows. They're still making bank on these misfires so that may be good enough for them for now. Link to post Share on other sites

I just don't see them stopping any of these films, despite the reviews/backlash. Unlike the movies you mentioned, these are actually turning a profit. Hopefully WW is the critical success the DCEU needs! _ Btw, I fancast Trevante Rhodes to play Jon Stewart. I don't really care about Hal. Link to post Share on other sites

Queef Queen Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 (edited) Through all the BS DC has had to deal with, no one anywhere can say a movie made by James Wan will be anything less than quality. I was nervous about having actors like Jason & Amber leading a blockbuster film, but seeing them all sit together is iconic and the movie as a whole has significantly moved up on my anticipated list. Come through daddy Wan. Edited January 26, 2017 by Queef Queen Link to post Share on other sites
mdnazn Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 So Flash is getting a rewrite. This is like the third time Anyway, it's definately not being released in 2018 unless it pulls a Suicide Squad and gets written in 6 weeks Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, Hal is in the film but so is John and other GLs. And thankfully Ryan isn't there to ruin the character with his douchy frat boy acting.

From the trailers alone it looks like the strongest story so far from the DCEU. Jason Inman who actually works at DC (and not some bitch who heard from a friend of a friend) said the script is as strong the original Superman, and that's basically Patty's inspiration. So if the story stands up there's no possible reason for it to be picked apart by critics & ODCH. Except for editing I guess, but I fully trust Ms Patty to sort that out.
