Sinestro May Not Be A Villain In Green Lantern

:(

Stop it kids. =/

I think this is a good move. Bring him in a bit later.

Is Hector Hammond going to be enough of a villain to propel the first movie if they go this route?

I also think this would be a good move.

Dogs: Its the Green Lantern. There is always some sort of cosmic catastrophy happening that would be an effective challenge for the core to prove themselves. Then throw in Hammond and your set, don't you think?

It will be mostly in space. Which is great cause that's where lanterns belong

Of corse they will leave sinistro turn eveil to another movie which for the fans is awesome, because it means more Green Lantern heading our way :D

Wadey9: i agree with you. this film will be fantastic and like avatar but with better aliens and better story.

The news just keeps getting better and better for this movie!

I always wonder why we are all in such a hurry to see EVERYTHING in a CBM. It’s like we want the whole mythology to unfold NOW. Well, in the comics it takes years for things to unfold and for characters to turn or change. Yes we all know as fanboys that Sinestro will become evil, but could you imagine being one of those noncomic readers who sees these films and the thrill they'll get seeing Sinestro turn or at least be revealed to be evil in a couple movies or so. Sometimes I think we miss out because we already know so much about the characters. I think if we just have patience and let things unfold at a sub-break neck speed you get a much better story. Remember the old saying of the father bull to his son. "You want to run down there and do a single cow, or walk down there and have the energy to do them all?" ...Crass I know but it's more colorful than slow and easy win the race or the tortoise and the hare, you know?

On that same line of thought I think that not knowing exactly what’s going to happen is why I really enjoy movies like The Dark Knight over CBMs like Sin City, 300, and even Watchmen; its because movies like the latter films are near exact retellings of the comics they stem from, in the case of Sin City I felt kind of hollow because even though it was very fun to see whole frames from the comic that I loved dearly recreated on the screen I knew exactly what was going to happen and there were no surprises. TDK was more fulfilling because it was an original story and actually moved things around a bit (not so much as to be disrespectful to the source, but just enough to throw your preconceived notions as a fanboy a curveball). Origins story can kind of straddle the line between the two so I’m looking forward to seeing where Campbell takes GL. What will he alter? What will he recreate? How will the world be presented? It’s a fun level of expectation.

As long as we see Sinestro I'm okay with it.

I'm liking the way they're going with this. If the did everything the first movie, there would be no room for a franchise

I think this move will definately prove to be a good one. Trying to put together Hal's origin and Sinestro's betrayal is one thing that made First Flight suck.

It's a good idea. Don't kill the best villain in the Green Lantern universe in the first movie, build it up.

If Sinestro is not the villain in the first film, then i would like to see the Black Hand or Kanjar Ro or them both with Hector Hammond.

Definitely Black Hand sholud be the villain!

I like this move. Give him the chance to be the friend and mentor to Hal then when he turns it will make more of an impact. One thing I hated about First Flight... they rushed the whole Sinestro villiany thing.

Yes FIRST FLIGHT was a rush job!!


SIN will turn evil near the end probably ready for a sequel, though i hope they leave the actual SINESTRO Corps till at least GL 3.

i hope sinestro is not in it. going from good guy to evil guy and major nemesis in one movie would wind up being a bit shallow. we don't need a new "venom-in-S3" shallow experience yet . . . still too soon, too soon!!!

I say good move. Only draw back will be if the general movie going audience doesn't dig on GL then we may never get a sequel and therefore no Hal vs Sinestro. If the movie turns out to be as cool as we hope this should not be a problem.
