What Do You NOT Want To See In A GL Movie?

Dear, WB

Hello. I'm writing on the teensy-tiny chance that, as recent reports have sugested, you're trawling messageboards to gauge fan-reaction to the "final three choices" of Cooper/Reynolds/Timberlake.
I'm a Lantern fan. A hardcore. There are very few things that could stop me seeing this movie.
Casting Justin "Sexyback" Timberlake as Hal Jordan is one of them. I mean it. That's how big a deal breaker this is. I'm not alone either, this is worrying news. VERY worrying. I havent heard a casting suggestion this bad since P. Diddy put himself up for Bond... Except this is worse because according to you, Timberlake playing Hal might actually happen.
Please... If you even remotely care what Green Lantern fans think (and apparently you do) cast Cooper or Reynolds. Both of whom are comparatively fine considering the circumstances... Or better yet, Why don't you call Nathan Fillion? Think about it.

Yours sincerely,

Wesley Dodds.

Seconded. I'm right there with you, man.

^Thirded. I'm with you Wesley.

 

[the_joker]

^Fourth-ed! I cannot believe that Justin Timberlake is seriously being considered. I could live with Nathan Fillon, but Cooper gets my first preference vote.

 

[protocida]

I don't want Justin Timberlake nor Bradley Cooper. Even Shawn Roberts would be better!

 

[Drakon]

Fifthed.

A desk lamp would be better than Justin Timberlake.

OMG that's it! PERFECT CASTING!!! My official cast choices for Green Lantern:

Hal Jordan: a desk lamp
Carol Ferris: paperclips
Guy Gardner: earphones
Ganthet: sparkplugs
John Stewart: jumper cables
Sinestro: wooden shoes
Hector Hammond: a rubber band
Katma Tui: a toilet plunger
Tomar Re: a microwave
Kilowog: the Sears Tower

 

[Drakon]

Mogo: one of those plastic eggs you get from the quarter machines.

 

[MadVillainy]

Knowing Hollywood they'll probaly make John Stewart an Escalade

 

[That-Guy]

lol

Parallax: a banana
Kyle Raynor: a paintbrush
Jack T. Chance: a toy Smurf
Alan Scott: a telegraph
Jade: limejuice
The Shark: goldfish crackers

Thanks, guys. Good to know i'm not on my own with this..

I swear if marketing uses a tagline like, "this summer, prepare to go green", I am going to kick the **** out of the WB suits.

 

[General_Obol]

Ch'p

Cute littel furry thing meant to make appeal to little kids? Sounds like an Ewok.

And if that use that exact tag, I'm coming after you.

Oh, God. That's awful. What can we do to make sure this doesn't happen?

 

[AnorexicBatman]

Tagline should be: In Brightest Day. In Darkest Knight.
Seriously. The oath is like the greatest tagline for the movie!

Have two different movie posters, each with half of the oath on it. Perfect!

And since it seems like Sinestro's going to be the big bad for the second film (not the first), the third film could be about the Sinestro Corps War and use the two halves of the Sinestro Corp Oath as the tagline. Genius

I really don't want to see any human villains as anything other than a cameo in the films. Leave Legion and be done with that.

But Hector Hammond made for a much more compelling bad guy than Legion in the script. With Hammond, you'd get a performance. Legion is just a big special effect.

Are you sure you're in the right place?

What makes you say that?

I haven't read it. But Legion's the important villain. And two villains that have nothing to do with each other will just lead down the infamous "supervillain team-ups" we all hate and despise. See Spider-Man 3 for more info.

The Legion comment...you know we crave the biggest, most outlandish **** on here.

See Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. One of the worst films of the year, yet the highest grossing.

I know I just started a flame war with that. :facepalm
