Where does Green Lantern stand among comic book movies?

[S.A.A.D.]

What would be a fair spot to put it in?

 

[Karelia]

Somewhere in the middle. Probably just above Iron Man 2 for me.

 

[Tony Stark]

I'm not sure if it was trying to be intentionally corny or not, so depending on which either right above Batman and Robin or right below it.

 

[J.Howlett]

In the middle...

 

[K'Prime]

Above Fantastic 4 rise of the silver surfer

slightly below superman returns

 

[Man of Tomorrow]

My version of the rankings.

I'd say Green Lantern is easily headed for the blue section amidst Fantastic Four and Ghost Rider.

 

[The Sage]

I liked it better than Iron Man 2.

 

[The Shape]

Certainly didn't have the impact we all hoped it would have...

 

[FreeRadical]

Around about the level of The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.

Around about the level of The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.

Ouch. Burn.

 

[Episode29]

Somewhere in the lower half. Above crap like Catwoman, Elektra and X-Men Origins, but below mediocre efforts like X3 or Spider-Man 3.

 

[FreeRadical]

Ouch. Burn.

I just found the film so.......pedestrian. Yeah Oa and the GL mythology was there, but I didn't feel engaged with the material.

i want to hate and yell and rant...but... but i can't...

 

[Marvel]

GL ranks below Fantastic Four but ahead of Catwoman, Elektra, Ghost Rider, Punisher War Zone, Superman 3 & 4, Batman Forever and Batman & Robin.


So, pretty low on the list but not the worst all-time.

I'm not mad at Green Lantern.....I'm just....disappointed.

 

[C. Lee]

I say somewhere around the upper middle grouping. I had fun watching it.

 

[Spider-Fan]

Somewhere in the middle. I don't feel like ranking it formally, right now. But, somewhere in the middle.

 

[EML420]

Im wondering were movies like The Loser ,Scott Pilgrim and Wanted rank but I would put it above the worst movies like the best of the worst type deal.

 

[S.A.A.D.]

I would rank Green Lantern in second place, behind Batman. Batman is still my favorite comic book movie of all time.

Are you serious?

 

[Rock Sexton]

Put it this way, I have no desire to see this film again. So that puts it in the ranks of Daredevil, Fantastic Four, and Ghost Rider.

 

[EliteF50]

It's one of my favourite comic book movies of all time (1st or 2nd, behind B89). Up there with Batman Begins, B89, Watchmen, X2, Spider-man 2, Spider-man 1, etc.

 

[C. Lee]

I would rank Green Lantern in second place, behind Batman. Batman is still my favorite comic book movie of all time.

Do you mean the Keaton/Burton one?

 

[EliteF50]

Are you serious?

I agree with SAAD. And why not? I had a blast watching it in the theater and can't wait to go see it again tomorrow.

 

[Anno_Domini]

Better than Superman Returns.
