Board 8 > Oh man I just saw Green Lantern *SPOILERS*

(+) Yeah! (+)

I uh

didn't like it

..at all

I mean damn

it was so boring

I was braindead the entire time

I can't even remember much of it

what the hell was going in in it?

am I remembering correctly in thinking the bad guy was s***?

also, isn't the Green Lantern supposed to be ALOT more serious than Ryan R. portrayed him as?

Yes. It's a terrible movie.

I don't think it was as bad as others make it out to be.

But it still sucks balls, yes.

Except Ryan Reynolds wasn't portraying the Green Lantern.

Nicely done, SuperNiceDog. Super nicely done.

They didn't do a very good job with the movie.

If it had been about him rising to become a worthy Green Lantern instead of about a crappy love story and a giant cloud monster, it would've been ten times better.

Captain America>>>>>>Thor>>>>>>>>Green Lantern

I liked Cap a good deal. I might even think it was great

Thor was stupid and mediocre, but hey, it was cool to look at and I paid attention to it

WHAT THE F***

IIRC, LTM changed his opinion after he rewatched it.

I'm a big fan of Green Lantern and I really didn't like it very much.

They managed to completely skip over some of the most interesting parts of the Green Lantern mythos.

And yeah, Hal is generally pretty serious.

Also, I don't really understand how Hal goes from "guy who can't hack it and runs from Oa" to "only guy who can take on the big bad, all alone" without any real training.

I maintain that if they ended up focusing on Sinestro's abuse on his home planet while he's training Hal, and Hal opposing him while trying to become a more worthy Lantern would've been much better. It would've shown that Sinestro abuses his power of the ring while Hal is genuinely a good person who wants to do things right. We never got a sense of that in the movie, and Hal is kind of a D in it. (Like, majorly a D, which doesn't make sense for why we should care about him.)

And then at the end of the movie, the race of aliens that escapes me right now could attack Sinestro's home planet, and the Lanterns would make a defense. Eventually, as the fight winds down, Sinestro goes to sacrifice a bunch of his people to kill off a bunch of the aliens, and Hal Jordan uses his powers to save them, then takes out the aliens himself. Sinestro and Hal come to blows in an epic showdown and then Hal manages to beat him.

Sinestro gets stripped of his ring and isolated deep in space, and then we see him find the Yellow Lantern. The end.

I mean, if you're going to blow tons of money on CGI on effects, then spend it on a huge war on an alien planet, and not a god damn stupid cloud monster.

This would've been so much better than what we got. I mean, you barely get any sense of the relationship between Hal and Sinestro in the movie. And the post credits scene has next to no impact since they don't really push the idea of Sinestro not being satisfied with the way the Guardians handle things, except for a few angry glances basically. Instead, it just looks like he's been corrupted by the yellow energy.
