Bring it on down to Green Lanternville...

Once again I feel the need to state I don't think it's a good movie, however I enjoyed it.

So...it's your 'Cars', then.

[Captain Russ]

Dude, it's no where near as bad as either of the FF movies. SRS.

Actually, I'd say it's pretty close to FF2 levels.

It even has its own intergalactic fart cloud villain.

[Matt]

I gotta tell ya...these comparisons to FF2 are not selling me on the film. That was HORRID.

[Ari]

Granted you're a GL dork, but in terms of actual directing/acting, NO WHERE NEAR AS BAD.

Martin Campbell is such a better director than Tim Story it's not even fair to use them in the same sentence. That's why this film's failure hurts so much more. All I want to do is crawl into a ball and play some Saints Row 2 so Puglet can play more backseat sex games.

Nah. I'd say "Dream a Little Dream" is my my "Cars"

[Captain Russ]

The Surfer deserved better.

The Corps deserved better.

[Ari]

I liked it more than Ghostrider!

TONIGHT, WE BONE MERCILESSLY!!!

If Nic Cage was also in GL it would be EPIC

So...this is sounding like the Martin Campbell equivalent of John McTiernan's 'Rollerball'...gotcha. Great source material totally fucked up in a way that only a talented director can to.

If he'd been cast as Sinestro, I'd be okay with it.

Or as Hammond's pop. Then we'd know where he got his latent neckbeard insanity from.

ETA: Rollerball is much worse. It is actively trying to make the audience throw anything not bolted down at it. GL is nowhere near as inspirational. For good or ill.

The man's got a point there, Rob. This is more fun than those movies though, in all seriousness. And better crafted.

Same here. This didn't have unintentional laughs (in fact, it was probably the quietest crowd I've watched a movie with in a long time) although it also failed to deliver legitimate laughs. I seem to remember Ghost Rider providing both, albeit on a slightly skewed ratio.

If Nic Cage was also in GL it would be EPIC

YES!

Cage as Hammond would have got me on the Big Head love train, too.

Who amongst us wouldn't want to see a massive noggin'd Cage sliding up to Blake Lively, having a good sniff of her, and whispering "I could eat a peach for hoooourrs" in her ear. That's good antagonism!

[FilmNerdJamie]

I pray to God we'll see that test footage from Superman Lives one day. I have to see Cage in action in that role.

[Ari]

I still can't believe that pic of him in that plastic suit is real.
