eugimon Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 sounds good... jack can do that sort of intense driven crazy that could make GL really work... I'm guessing lots of giant glowing green boxing gloves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaijin Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 Now this deserves some ripping on. I don't know Green Lantern but, I don't recall him being some portly dude. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That NOS Guy Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 Actually, from a marketing perspective it's a wise move. The Green Lantern isn't one of the bigger superheroes around so in order to draw more audiences in, you cast someone who appeals to the youth market since that's where the superhero movies are targeted anyway. It's long been known film companys don't care what us fanboys think. -NOS This is what happens when you put Canadians in charge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least do themselves a favor and cast the Green Lantern as someone who fits the role. Considering that, heaven forbid, Jack Black DOES pull in fans for the GL franchise. None of the newbies will recognize the slim Green Lantern. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agent ONE Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 I think this Green Lantern movie will kick ass. No Schwarzenegger = not good movie Well, in a way every superhero movie is about Arnold. I mean Arnold is the closes thing we have to God, Jesus, or Superman, so the movie doesn't really need to have Arnold in it to have the Schwarzenegger influence. You have Arnold Schwarzenegger bed sheets and pillows don't you? Well my sheets are fit to touch the skin of a perfect physique... I mean, I DO sleep on them. So sorta.

I think marvel is being much smarter about tying in their movies to their comics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EXO Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 Well... word filters are a lot farting funnier that Jack Black. That fat ass son of a bitch dickhead. <-- HA! no filters, because that's what he is!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golden Arms Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 I like JB but this makes absolutely no sense. You'd think that WB would learn from the success of the marvel films and emulate their approach. Sad to say I bet this movie will either break even or make some profit.

bigkid24 Posted July 19, 2004 Share Posted July 19, 2004 I don't see why they have to call it a GL movie. Just take the same concept and run with it but don't put the GL label on it because it will be so far removed from the GL universe that it'll be unrecognizable. At least, that's what I'm hoping for.

WOAH! cool Megatron avatar! What they need to do is make a new animated Transformers movie, in which Megatron and Optimus Prime team up and curbstomp every single character from Beast Wars to Energon. "Their defenses are broken, let the curb stomping begin!" "Hasbro must be stopped, no matter the cost." That would make a great movie.
