POLL RESULTS: THOR vs Green Lantern

POLL RESULTS: THOR vs Green Lantern

See who the CBM readers voted would be the victor in a brawl and on screen between THOR and The Green Lantern.

Last Saturday I posed two questions to the CBM community concerning THOR and The Green Lantern. These questions came about beleive it or not, from an article I did a while back in which Ryan Reynolds side stepped the topic of who would win in a fight between The Green Lantern and Deadpool.

The question within the article sparked such a debate in the comments section that I created and added a POLL posing that very same question to the CBM readers. That POLL in turn, spun into the THOR vs The Green Lantern POLL. Some readers (Intruder by far, being the most vocal) complained that the original GL vs DP POLL wouldn't be very close and I should create a POLL using someone who would be more of a match for The Green Lantern

I wanted to keep it CBM related and not just use any heroes from the comics and seeing as how THOR and The Green Lantern are both due out next year, that's who I chose for the match up.

We ended up with a tie of sorts.

Who do you think would be victorious in a battle between THOR and The Green Lantern?

And the winner is......

1. THOR 1,803 Votes (67.83%) 2. The Green Lantern 855 Votes (32.17%



Which movie do you think has bigger "blockbuster" potential, THOR or The Green Lantern?

And the winner is......

1. The Green Lantern 1,054 Votes (52.65%) 2. THOR 948 Votes (47.35%)




For a long time it looked as though THOR would sweep the contest but The Green Lantern slowly worked his way to the lead in the blockbuster category and never let go.



Hawksblueyes: The response to the POLL article surprised me with over 350 comments and 2600 votes. Would you like to see some more POLLS of this type? If so, what match ups would you like to see? I am really trying to use only the heroes that are in a CBM or soon will be. Animated films and television shows would work as well.

thor would win that fight hands down.

i prefer thor to the green lantern,but both movies should be great.

i'm hoping thor is better though.

TABOO: Thor handed out the ass kicking but Green Lantern walks away with the Blockbuster. =P

Intruder: Beleive it or not, I meant to include your name there but haven't done so yet. I'll take care of it now. Simmer down, simmer down. ;)

@MrYurMomm one that costume was photoshopped and two they said that the costume will have cgi to it

@Intuder I think Avengers vs Batman would be a better debate.

Seems accurate.

Thor is a deserving winner when it comes to who would win in a fight, but I still think that he'll also win at the box office! Either way, great work HAWKS! :) Oh, and...

Dont forget to check out my interview with VICTOR GISCHLER! Just click the link! :)

Dynamo, that's a good idea. A Batman 3 vs The Avengers box office poll would be fun.

ckal: This in no way means one or the other will not be a blockbuster at the theaters. The question is really asking which one do you think will do better.

I hope every CBM that ever comes out is an Oscar winning blockbuster. If that were to happen we would never have to worry about seeing our heroes on screen.

Thor is the Norse God of lightning, Green Lantern has a ring of power from aliens that think their gods. do the math

Batman vs. Captain America! That, IMHO, would be the greatest fight ever.

The lack of hype for GL movie is because of WB's privacy policy and confidentiality agreements. By reversing this, GL movie will start earning the trust and interest of the general public.

@Intruder
I think you're counting out Batman waaaaay too quickly. Especially after Inception and TDK.
Dynamo

@Intruder
Well clearly. Give him a week to prepare he'll take on Galactus.

we almost need 2 cbm sites one for marvel amd one for dc , we just cant all get along .

@ islandboi...GL is the muscle for "The Guardians of the UNIVERSE"...that has to give him some cred, even against a "Norse God."
SentinelofLiberty
SentinelofLiberty - 10/1/2010, 4:07 PM
@thunder, LOL! I never understood the whole "Marvel vs DC" shenanigans. For me, it's all about characters and writers. Love Batman, Cap, Spider Man, GL, Flash, Punisher, Firestorm, Ghost Rider, Manhunter, Daredevil. When a character is badass, who gives a damn which company publishes the book?
thunderforce
thunderforce - 10/1/2010, 4:09 PM
if you love badass characters why do you like batman lol .

@thunderforce
I never try to disrespect anyone, I just don't accept any disrespect to ANY superhero. Marvel or DC. It just so happenes that DC gets picked on more so I have to defend it more.

Thor would utterly destroy GL, no question.

As for the box-office, I'm surprised. I hinestly thought more people were more excited to see Thor than GL....but whatever, I hope both films do well and are indeed good films.
SentinelofLiberty
SentinelofLiberty - 10/1/2010, 4:30 PM
@ Intruder, right on! I like both Marvel AND DC. I still think if a character and book are good, they are good, no matter which logo is on the top corner of the book. But I also agree that Marvel has a greater quantity of great characters....
SentinelofLiberty
SentinelofLiberty - 10/1/2010, 4:37 PM
1. Batman vs. Cap
2. Hawkeye vs. Green Arrow!

@Gambit
You see i'd beg to differ. I think they're about the same. Minor Character's like Booster Gold and The Question are great characters. Even someone like The Creeper is on par with Deadpool.

Hell 52 and Identity Crisis prooved how minor characters like Donna Troy, Enlongated man and even people like Dr Light can be great and interesting characters.
