GL Preview Trailer

potential lantern design --Click here to view--

[Vyse]

YES!

I really can't wait to see this movie. It's going to be awesome, even if it sucks. ^^

Really not a fan of the CG costume, was it really necessary? Why not just a normal costume like other heroes have had.

GREEN LANTERN: OFFICIAL TRAILER!

No rickrolll.

Honestly I'm glad I'm not too attached to Green Lantern and the suit thing. I will agree a real suit would've been nice. But I'm excited to see this movie, regardless, although to be honest, the trailer didn't wow me.

It's not the fan-made one, which was awesome.

This trailer feels desperate and is one of those trailers that feels like you watched the whole movie.

Batman: The Dark Knight Rises will be based on the Graphic Novel "Prey"

Scriptflags state that a P.R contact has Confirmed Batman: The Dark Knight Rises is based on Doeg Moench's "Prey", the unofficial follow up to Frank Miller's Year One.

script --Click here to view--

Prey features Commissioner Gordon [Gary Oldman] finding his way in his new role as Commissioner following the events of Frank Miller's Year One, whilst trying to maintain his relationship with a Batman who's despised by cops and seen as a criminal [The Dark Knight's ending]. Enter Professor Hugo Strange, a police psychiatrist obsessed with Batman. Prey also features Catwoman, whom earlier we reported an actress being offered the role back in August. Prey is easily one of the best stories that ran in the Legend of the Dark Knight series [this book reprints #11-15] in the vein of the Dark Knight Returns, The Long Halloween, Dark Victory and Strange Apparitions.

Alright I've got one for ya. I was excited with the announcement of the Green Lantern movie, in fact I was looking forward to it.

But it looks like that they've decided to go a more light hearted Watchmen approach. So let me ask you a question which looks better?

This fan made trailer from a year ago using different movie clips

I loved Long Halloween and parts of Dark Knight Returns... did not care for the art of Dark Knight Returns. !!! The Hugo Strange thing ties in with Arkham City too!!!! I approve.

Or The Actual Trailer

I agree, the fan-trailer feels like they're taking the material more serious and the epic scope is apparent. The new trailer as I said when I posted the trailer feels desperate, shows the whole movie and feels like it takes things less seriously, but again we haven't seen the movie yet, I honestly don't think this is a well-done trailer (the official one). As a side note the music used for the Green Lantern movie creates a better sense of awe than the official trailer. I believe its a song from Batman Begins? Does anyone else notice... that other than the "hey here's another Ryan Reynolds movie general joe-q public" beginning in the official trailer... the outlay of both trailers are almost the same?... stealing? Also, the fan-made trailer has all the green lanterns saying the oath which also leads to a more epic feeling versus just trying to sell Ryan Reynolds saying it alone.

Nathan Fillion would be an awesome Green Lantern though.

[chouzu_tao]

I agree. Nathan Fillion would have been an awesome choice versus going with someone who's already two marvel characters. I also think Ryan Reynolds was a better choice for Flash.

[Pink Cherries]

I do agree that Ryan Reynolds would be a better choice for Flash (Wally West). I also think he would make a better Green Lanturn as Kyle Rayner than as Hal Jordan. But I think Kyle Rayner is Ion now.

I didn't like the official trailer too much, but I'm still excited for the movie. The fan one was better.

[Vyse]

I think Ryan Reynolds could have pulled of all three main Flashes after Jay Garrick, but I'm not going to judge his Hal Jordan until I've seen the movie. Hal Jordan's character has changed over the years as well, and it would have been boring to see Ryan Reynolds forced into playing a character written by writers 30-40 years ago. Ryan Reynolds has grown a lot as an actor since Two Guys, a Girl and a Pizza Place. That is the first place I remember seeing him, and I just pegged him as another comedian. If the script is right, and the people working with him are good, I'm pretty sure Ryan Reynolds can pull off Hal Jordan. Sure, he could have done a good Kyle Rayner as well, but to start a Green Lantern film series (I'm expecting more) with the fourth human GL (I'm not counting Alan Scott there) wouldn't make much sense. The pick is obviously our Silver Age Green Lantern, as Hal Jordan will probably always be the favourite Green Lantern... although Kyle Rayner is my personal fave.

At the moment though, I'm looking forward to Thor more than I do Green Lantern. I don't know exactly what it is about Marvel's movies lately, but I just find myself falling for every single piece of hype they can blast my way. Captain America is also a movie I'm looking forward to greatly.

[Insurrection]

It's marvel's reputation, DC usually hasn't had much success and when they do it's only towards a very serious movie in my opinion.

Watchmen and Nolan's Batman make Marvel pale in comparison, however Marvel's plots are more easily made relevant as to the fact their characters are all linked and all together. And just more human.

When a DC movie doesn't look serious as a marvel then they haven't gone with their strengths it's why the last Superman movie was never any good. This is where the branch begins if Green Lantern can succeed then the other DC heros can move forward.

I would really love to see how they pull off a Flash movie.

Sam must have improved Spiderman!

DC is far from failing and it most certainly doesn't count on Green Lantern for making or failing it's future success. The older Superman films with Christopher Reed were quite a success for it's time period. Critics dis Superman now cause the director didn't amp it up enough like the comic has done. Rumor is going around that Nolan will pick up Superman so it'll likely be a big hit.

"New Avengers" Emblem & Filming Spots for The Avengers & Iron Man 3 Revealed



As for "The Flash" the latest rumor is Chris Pine will fill the role. I think Chris would be a good Barry Allen.

[Saku-chan]

I was really apprehensive about Ryan Reynolds, but I'm not disappointed by the trailers... (The CG suit makes him look a bit ridiculous with a waist as tiny as a woman's, but oh well...)


I will definitely go see it, though.

(I'm really excited for Captain America though. >.<)

[shadow_Uzumaki]

Thor.

So, what do you guys think?

[chouzu_tao]

I'm excited!

I like it. But it looks bulky and awkward to move in.

Weird, not a fan of the look of the material, or the spidey emblem.

[shadow_Uzumaki]

I think the new Spidey outfit just needs more red, and shorten the two legs a little, and I'll be fine with it. Won't bug me when I see the movie, though.
