Easter Eggs

[dnno1]

I saw the key to superman's fortress, Wonder Woman's invisible jet, Captain America's shield. What happened to John Stewart and Geoff Johns?

 

[Rowsdower!]

Huh? Where were Superman's key and Wonder Woman's jet? I mean, I know Hal did the jet constructs at the end but I don't think that was a WW nod.

Also, the John Stewart actor was cut from the film (I'm guessing he's not to upset over the bad reviews). Not sure about Johns.

 

[p4poetic]

I don't think its a WW nod either, but many fans can see nods in anything (remember how Lucius Fox mentioning cats in TDK was supposedly a nod to Catwoman? lol).

That should take care of the key to Superman's pad.

Now as for Wonder Woman's plane,

Spoiler

there was a scene in the film where Hal gives his nephew, Jason Jordan a glass replica of a delta Dart, which was originally a gift from his father. The odd thing was that it was made of glass and that it looked just like the invisible jet that Wonder Woman uses.

Don't think that they didn't leave the Batman out:

Of course there was the Buzz Lightyear and He Man nods as well.

The scene where he's trying to figure out what the oath is to activate the lantern reminds me of Spider-Man when Peter is trying to figure out how to use his webbing.

• Parallax is imprisioned in Ryut, on Sector 666.
• Carol Ferris callsign is "Sapphire" and the Star Sapphire symbol is on her helmet.
• Hal Jordan's callsign is "Highball".
• The Department of Extranormal Operations.
• Sinestro creates a construct of Captain America's shield.
• Hal Jordan trying to make the "Bat-voice".
• Central City bilboard.
• The Emotional Spectrum revealed in the final credits.

And the YL Sinny at the Scene After Credits.

The entire movie was an Easter Egg for it's sequel

 

[CaptainAwesome]

Green Lantern makes fun of the Batman voice and it was hilarious!

I thought he was trying to do a Christopher Reeve/Superman impression for Carol.

When I heard it, I thought Batman. Regardless, it was funny.

My first thought was Batman as well.

Oh well. From my point of view, he looked to be channeling Superman's 'Hello Miss Lane' demeanor.

The first thing I thought as well was that he was doing the Batman voice. But he did keep calling her "Ms. Ferris". I think what they were trying to do is show that Hal/Green Lantern isn't like those other heroes because he ended up cracking up right after that and didn't really take it serious. They're showing that he's a "new" kind of hero.

The Sinestro shield thing is subjective .
It is a shield, there is nothing to indicate it cap's shield.

I don't know, it looked a LOT like Cap's shield (it had the stripes on it, just no star). And then when he threw it, I thought it was a pretty obvious nod to Cap.

And if you need further proof, well... I guarantee you that if the Cap movie gets good reviews, some Marvel fan is going to make a GIF of movie Cap throwing his shield and it hitting Hal, followed by the word OWNED.

It was a shield, he threw it, I'm pretty sure that's the only simlilarity (besides the stripes) that it had. I'm not sure why they would have a reference to Cap's shield. If anyone wanted to be a total nerd about it the biggest evidence for it NOT being Cap's shield is that it didn't return to Sinestro, haha.

I can totally see that GIF beign made though.

 

[Steyin]

There were swirls of color during those credits.

Green. Yellow. Violet. Red. Orange. Blue. Indigo.

Yep, and Blake Lively's name appeared in violet.

 

[Ipodman]

The scene where he's trying to figure out what the oath is to activate the lantern reminds me of Spider-Man when Peter is trying to figure out how to use his webbing.

Good point.

I got this pic from Green Lantern - Now Playing TV Spot #2, exactly at 0:15 from a total of 0:32:

 

[JerseyJoker]

When Sinestro took his GL ring off to put the YL ring on, why didn't his costume disappear.

 

[Karelia]

When Sinestro took his GL ring off to put the YL ring on, why didn't his costume disappear.

It also didn't disappear when Abin Sur took it off, only until he died did it disappear.

 

[JerseyJoker]

Yet, Hal' disappeared every time he took that Ring off.

 

[Ipodman]

Hmm

 

[NewYorkSpider]

Am I missing something? Why would a DC movie be giving a nod to a Marvel character?

 

[Nitrobot]

Yet, Hal' disappeared every time he took that Ring off.

Maybe Hal's uniform is more "instable" because he is a new recruit. Possibly the ring's energy can be "saved" inside the body of its bearer as long as the time passes...

It's not a nod as much as an insult. Almost "We beat you to it"

It was a subtle **** You but it was one nonetheless. There's no way those similarities were completely coincidental

All 3 of those seem awfully tenuous.

Who knows, it's not uncommon. Raimi had Peter Parker doing shirt-rips in his Spider-Man movies.

 

[TheLongestDay]

Who knows, it's not uncommon. Raimi had Peter Parker doing shirt-rips in his Spider-Man movies.

Not to mention:

"You're not Superman you know"

 

[Prison Mike]

In Raimi's Marvel universe, Superman comics exist!

 

[Krimasen]

Who knows, it's not uncommon. Raimi had Peter Parker doing shirt-rips in his Spider-Man movies.

It's because that shirt rip has become as iconic as the superheroes themselves.

And as for why the shield appeared, maybe they're setting up DC vs Marvel (except only DC's part of the movie would have lackluster CGI and only Batman would do anything meaningful)

 

[The Sage]

It's because that shirt rip has become as iconic as the superheroes themselves.

But the shirt rip itself is public identified and attached to one hero.

 

[SuperDaniel]

Where was the Central City billboard?
