Green Lantern Rumors Examined

Green Lantern Rumors Examined

So here's the lowdown on what's happening with the Emerald Knight.

Here is the recent rumor roundup:

1. No confirmation yet if Haley is up for the role of Sinestro

2. Sinestro is not the main villain in the GL movie, he is Hal's mentor(much like in the comics) though there are hints of his dark nature. I think him being the big bad will be reserved for the sequels.

3. Superman's cameo might not be in costume. Possible *spoiler* The ring in choosing a new wielder passes by the Daily Planet and hesitates on an eyeglass wearing reporter.

4. Another possible *spoiler* the ring then will encircle several times on Guy Gardner(who we all fans know is another Green Lantern in the comics). A suitable actor is being considered because of a possible bigger part on an upcoming sequel

Everything sounds good, and hopes that all comes to light... even Green Light!

I really think the ring should encircle john Stewart, instead of Guy. Stewart was the second Lantern, and more widely known, though I'll admit, that it would be cool to see Guy on screen.

no, Stewart was the third lantern, Guy was the second. Guy was chosen as a backup for Hal, but when both Hal and Guy were out of commission John Stewart came in. But I do like John better than Guy.

Still upset about R.Reynolds as GL. Espescially after his DeadPoool turned into a DeadPoop. And he was soooooo into "the Character" if i remember corectly.

Ya know what sucked most about Wade Wilson "DudPool" is that he looked and acted just like Ryan Wilson. Even the hair for Chrissakes! Total R.R.

I'd like Sinestro to start out as good, with of course hints to his evil nature, and the end fight of the film would be him versus Hal. I just think it might be a waste to not have him as Hal's enemy in the movie.

Jason Isaacs = Sinestro

I'd like the idea of the ring passing by Gardner, it would be pretty cool IMO.

Jeremy Renner = Guy Gardner

I'd LOVE a Clark Kent (not Superman) cameo. It would go great with the apparent plan WB has to tie all the new films together.

Brandon Routh = Clark Kent/Superman

Regarding Reynolds and Deadpool:

Reynolds NAILED Wade in his screen time as part of Team X. Nailed the personality, humor, action, all of it.

He is not to blame for Barakapool. Actors like him don't have a say in what the studios want. He would have gotten nowhere if he tried to change what happened to Deadpool at the end, all he'd have gotten is trouble with Fox. Plus, from interviews pertaining to the very same subject, it's obvious he didn't like the way they changed the character.

I think he'll be a great Hal Jordan, he's a great actor, and he's got Martin Campbell directing him. 2 wins in my book.

Man, I can't wait for this movie. Every piece of information I get just drives me nutz.

Anyway, I'm glad Sinestro isn't the main villain in the first movie. I'd like to see his character evolve over a period of 1 or 2 films.

It wasn't Wades mutant ability that allowed him to deflect bullets with his sword. It was his Jedi powers. DUH! lol

Tyler-
"I'd like Sinestro to start out as good"

I would agree if you mean to fool the general audience. Otherwise, he was bad before he donned the ring.

Bypass Routh as Supes. Part of a franchise that should come to swift and deadly end. No more carry-overs. Time for do-overs.

Multi: Reynolds nailed the interpretation we got. They made him like Deadpool after all the sh*t happened to him, and Reynolds nailed it.

The not on Team X thing and the slicing bullets thing don't have anything to do with how Reynolds portrayed the character.

Phinehas: Yes, Sinestro would obviously be bad, but he starts out "good" to fool the audience.

Jeremy Renner = Guy Gardner

ryan reynolds is the bomb. he will nail this part just like he did wade wilson and scarjo.

.....after leaving Guy Gardner, the ring then encircles an unwitting Snapper Carr...who looks uncannily like Ashton Kutcher. It then moves on to a Bruce Campbellish Eel O'Brien.

I agree w/ movietheaterlad. Jeff Anderson could play Garder's persona very well. Anderson's Randel is really an asshole and Gardner comes across as an asshole sometimes himself.

Shibaz: I agree Reynolds just doesnt seem like a good fit for Green Lantern. Hal Jordan comes off more as an adult serious with some edge. Reynolds is all edge and immature(Deadpool and the character he played in Blade3) maybe he should've been Guy or Kyle but not Hal.

Tyler:

That is one thing that I love with villians. I want more subtlety in film in regard to evil. Because villians in reality always think that they are on the side of God though their deeds are evil. They justify away their actions or philosophy in the name of the greater good. More troubles in life are from peoples' "good intentions". In the same way, I think Sinestro should be portrayed with beliefs that he is the good guy in this war. As opposed to battle cries that ring of, "in the name of doom," or, "in the name of evil". That's just stupid. That's one reason why I think they should change Sinestro's name from an origin name. The corp calls him that nickname which would eventually stick. If he were just evil, it would seem weird on how he could recruit so many supporters to his Sinestro Corp.

sinestro should be good at the beginning, but slowly turn evil and jealous throughout the whole thing, then they fight at the end.

and am i the only person that thinks guy gardner is a tool shed?

NO to Tom (Wooden as a plank) Welling and YES to Brandon (Charismatic) Routh

Whoa. Tyler, did you just say that Routh is charismatic?! You're kidding right?? What has he been in that he was charismatic? It certainly wasn't SR or his horrifying soap opera episodes.

I am for neither Routh or Welling. I don't want Smallville on the screen because the continuity is screwy. I don't Routh because he's uncharismatic bore that wasn't "misdirected" by Singerman, he just isn't convincing. Name me another movie that Singerman misdirected anyone! You can't. He allows actors to work their crafts. That is why he has many of the same come back to him. SR sucked because of Singer...primarily. But Routh did not convince me the he's a good Superman. Likewise as with Smallville, I don't anymore carry-overs, or continuations of legacy franchises from Donner/Singerman. Brand new! No confusion.

@ Phinehas - Routh is not as bad as you put him.... I liked him as Superman...
