Ryan Reynolds speaks indirectly on Green Lantern since Box Office flop

[Tacit Ronin]

They're also trying to shove Blake Lively down our throats too.

She must be ...pleasing somebody or somebodies very high up at WB. Lot's of happy endings involved.

 

[KalMart]

It is fruitless. His ability to spin anything bad about this film to good is one of a kind.

In that it always fails?

 

[J.Howlett]

No. Her show is produced by WB. It's been on the air for five years, I think. Not to mention, she got good notices for her supporting role in the Town. Her two Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants films, which were solid box office hits considering their budgets, were also done at WB.

 

[Liam_H]

^Yeap, WB is just using their own hand to feed themselves. Try to get her to hit it big and if she doesn't than no harm.

Why are people trying to shove Ryan down our throats?

Why are people trying to shove Ryan down our throats?

Nobody said this in relation to Chris Evans who was in Fantastic Four, Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer, Scott Pilgrim Vs The World, Losers, Captain America: The First Avenger, so what this hatred to Ryan Reynolds ?

 

[Ipodman]

Because Chris Evans was good in those movies, even though some of those movies themselves weren't all that great overall. Ryan Reynolds on the other hand, seems to destroy whatever hes in.

 

[Micromind]

He was good in Amityville horror and Buried.

 

[Liam_H]

Ryan Reynolds does not destroy whatever he is in. He was the best part of both Blade 3 and Origins. Those movies would've sucked if he were in it or not especially Origins. He wasn't exactly the right person to play Hal Jordan but the general consensus is that he tried the best with what he was given in this movie.

 

[The Morningstar]

Yea, the idea that Reynolds destroys whatever he is in is kinda, stupid.

He's a good actor, he's just been in some terrible movies recently. Even whilst Green Lantern got slaughtered pretty much every critic was like "Reynolds did the best he could but was let down by the awful script" etc.

Nobody's trying to shove anything down your throat. You can choose to watch his movies or not.

 

[Mace Dolex]

Not to mention with an over abundance of supehero movies this Summer I think GL would've fared better in the Fall or Winter.

 

[The Morningstar]

It would have fared better if it was a better film with a solid marketing campaign.

 

[Shadowlord X]

Shouldn't we be trying to shove ourselves down Blake Lively's throat?

 

[Chris B]

Its a shame. I thought Reynolds made a good Hal Jordan.

 

[Ipodman]

He was a horrible Hal Jordan... he was an acceptable Wade Wilson...

 

[HighFivingMF]

He was a horrible Hal Jordan... he was an acceptable Wade Wilson...

He was a pretty damn good both.

 

[The Sage]

Its a shame. I thought Reynolds made a good Hal Jordan.

Same.

 

[Metallo]

I thought he was a much better fit for Wilson than he was for Jordan. he wasn't TERRIBLE as Hal but he wasn't great either.

Deadpool is much more in line with Reynolds strengths.

 

[arman200]

Same.

Yeah, when I left the theater disappointed, plenty of people told me the same thing :"To be honest, the moment I heard Ryan Reynolds was Hal, I was kinda worried". That confused me, because he was one of the few things I enjoyed about the film.

 

[GreenKToo]

I always wanted Ryan cast as the Flash..(IMO the Flash would be perfect for Reynolds style of acting and personality..

He was one of the main reasons Blade 3 sucked so much.

Seriously literally every line he said was some sort of sarcastic comment, joke or what ever. It was annoying and totally killed the feel for the movie, i mean Jessic Biel certaintly helped as well and the movie in general wasn't that good.

Reynolds whole act is annoying, everyone keeps saying he is a good actor, but they base it off a couple of movies that aren't even that good.

He can be the next Brando for all we know, but untill he starts picking better movies, showing more range , he will never get any reconigtion or respect.

You can't be a good actor, if literally almost every move you are in bombs or sucks.

A part of being a good actor, is picking good movies to do.

So no, untill he proves he can do a better job of picking movies and not Romantic comedies or failed comic book movies, i don't know how anyone can consider him a great actor.

 

[The Sage]

Good actors pick weak scripts sometimes, and not always intentionally.

I barely remember Blade 3, but the key factor to it sucking was the story. The tone of the movie being ruined had nothing to do with him.

In Wolverine, Reynolds was easily part of the best ten or fifteen minutes of the movie. And he was good in Buried.

 

[spider13]

I agree he was amazing in buried.

All his movies are weak scripts though.

You people keep saying how good he is, yet he doesn't have one single bonafide hit to his name.

Blade 3 sucked because of the story, but Ryan Reynolds was like Ryan Reynolds like he always is, but on steroids, seriously he wouldn't shut up . I know thats the character , but he wasn't funny and it came across annoying.


He was good in Buried,i haven't seen it but i guess thats his one movie to his name he can fall back on....Not saying much but better than nothing i guess.

IDK how anyone can be considered a great actor if all he does is movies that flop and aren't good.

Again maybe he can act , but he has yet to prove he can be in a good movie, untill than he will just be another run of the mill Hollywood actor, who fizzles in no time.
