https://x.com/ericmcclung/status/2029242956465545441Genuinely what the fuck were they thinking? Hal's voice is terrible, the costume is terrible (and not Green), and the show looks like the blandest True Detective wannabe crap.
>>152701213You can tell that so much of this was made as a response to the 2010 film which they are still so sensitive about it seems. >that movie was colorful and cartoony?>make this the literal opposite
>>152701213This looks legitimately like utter trash.>not a single shot of any actual Lanterning>"sheeeeeiiiii whyboi u old and tired let a real blood nigga take the reigns pasty-ol cracka">that suit>that ridiculous voice>entire trailer is just two faggots running around a generic Midwestern townJesus Christ, I'm never going to get some good Hal content, am I?
Guy won
>>152701213LMAOOOOOOOOOOO
>>152701213I am crying and suicidal My based pedo king hal omari jordan got straight up ruined
>>152701213>>152701263Lanternbros, will we ever win?Also who's your favorite Lantern human and alien.For alien it's either Xax of Xios or Deeter and for human i'd go with Guy, actually i like all of em except that new one with the Josuke hair.
>>152701304Hal and brik or arisia
>>152701213The fuck was that? These guys are supposed to be space cops not Podunk PD.
Looks awful. Why do these retards struggle to adapt Hal?
>the whole point of this show is hal training jon to replace him when he inevitably dies/turns into parallax but why? green lantern is not a mantle. you can have these two co-exist and fight together.
>>152701223ryan reynolds poisoned the well, him going>ermmm green lantern was cringe amirite rawr xDin the deadpool movies didn't help either
>>152701629The movie not even that bad it's just generic throwaway superhero movie.
>>152701629James Gunn said Deadpool 1 is one of this favorite movies so that absolutely has to be the reason he’s approving this bullshit
>>152701673No, it’s shit. Reynolds is a complete miscast and Hector/Fart Cloud Parallax were fucking terrible. The one thing everyone seems to agree was pretty good was Sinestro and he didn’t even break bad yet.
>>152701696I've seen worst, I can't get worked up about it. It's like when people get really mad at WW 84 like yeah it's bad but I don't know one of the worst superhero movies? nah.
>>152701213One thing that irks me personally, is at the end of the trailer with the "joke" end line, it basically confirms that Hal doesn't really interact with the other GLs, even though Kilowog is like his bestest ride-or-die BF, and if we're already at retirement age Hal, all that and other shit is going to be skipped
>>152701628>but why?The tired old white man must die and give way to the hip young buck.
link got taken down anyone got a backup?
>>152701304>Xax of XiosWhy in particular?
>>152701304Apros was always my favorite alien.John earned best human during Mosaic.
>>152701778https://files.catbox.moe/tjy6c0.mp4
Its a HBO MAX show. It has a smaller budget than a movie. This is like a "more classy" version of a CW Lantern show. That's not necessarily a bad thing. The Ryan Reynolds movie poisoned the well. Normies already have capeshit fatigue and are back to only caring about the A list heavy hitters.John has more normie goodwill because of the cartoon. If its somewhere between "True Detective" and "Men in Black" it can work. My personal hope is that Hal pulls a Tommy Lee Jones and is able to retire off into the sunset with a new lady friend, but I'm prepared for him to die. There's already too many fucking human lanterns!!! Nathan Fillion is good as Guy. The upcoming cartoon is focusing on Jess and Kyle (and references Hal). It's already kind of a messy brand. I know you all want to go back to 2007 and live forever in the feeling you felt reading the Sinestro Corps War but that time is over.
>>152702154now with all that said >Damon Lindelof and Tom Kingi am prepared to hate it
>>152701304We won once, but it was taken from us.
>>152701213It’s nice to see they’ve gotten ahead of the curve and made it look like a Paramount+ show
>>152701304Guy was the best part of Superman, felt they got the balance between him being an arse whilst still being a hero
>>152702154Yeah, I'd like to go back to peak Green Lantern comics instead of having Tom King shitting on all these characters and having people applaud him for it. Fuck this.
>>152701213I didn't get to see it before it was taken down. Did they show any hint as to who the bad guy is? I am kinda hoping the killer is either Atrocitus or Black Hand.
>>152702253Star Girl showed just how fun live action series can be when they're written with genuine affection for the source.
>>152702273They released it officially now. No hint at anything other than an investigation and Hal training Johnhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z1jcPlGXnMo
>>152702168>Damon Lindelof and Tom KingDOA
>>152701304I want her back, bros ;_;
>>152701304Simon & Jess wonder comboStel & R'amey
This looks like a shittier Supernatural and man, they are laying thick that Hal is dying so John can take over as THE Green LanternFuck them
>>152701213So I thought GLs made their suits with the energy of the ring why is that latex thing hanging there as if it was Supermans underwear?
Seems like they're aiming for vibes from the start of The Green Lantern
>>152701213Think Arisia will show up in the show or future movies?
>>152702320This would have sucked anyway if Netflix had got WB in the end, right?
why couldn't this be set in space again?
Both Hal and John come off as cunts in this trailer. John moreso since Hal is at least charming about it.
>>152702438space and ayys are expensive. having them walk around a normal american town in normal clothes is cheap as hell.
We are deeply ashamed of comic books and everything on them. Have your grounded realistic brown prestige tv slop.
>>152702411It was made well before any merger deal so would have been the same always. Now that Paramount is merging P+ and HBO I doubt it will get a 2nd season.
>>152702505?
>>152702438>>152702492No idea. Star Wars, Star Trek and dozens of other shows are set in space and have a tv budget. This is HBO, they could have given them a decent budget and had it work.
>>152702525Starwars and Startrek are some of the most expensive shows ever made, and they are all mocked endlessly while being huge flops . They sure as hell arent going to blow a huge half billion dollar load on green lantern of all things.
THRILL AT THE LANTERNS BUSTING A METH LAB IN RAT'S ASS!
>>152701776Jon stewart is one of the few good black characters but replacing hal completely destroys it
>>152701213saaar costume not look green he no power up bahatmajat! saar fix now!!!
>>152702389Well there is this rumor, but unlikely really, probably just some redneck blonde girl
>>152702513>I doubt it will get a 2nd seasonUnless someone has a sensibility attack and starts adding SF elements.
>>152701263>waaaahhhh why doesn’t the trailer show everything immediately!?!?Because it’s a mystery show set on Earth and they’re not going to blow their big CGI moments in a fucking trailer>why is the rookie being cocky as well as black!?!!So now you’re complaining it’s comic accurate?
>>152702597>redneck>loses her virginity to an adult when underageMakes sense.
>>152702605>the trailer is retarded on purpose
>>152702567Star Trek at its peak was cheap
>>152701213the tom kingverse
>>152702655That was over 30 years ago Anon.
Dc Super Hero Girls stay winning.
>>152702438Because it’d be fucking expensive, dipshit. And even if they did a space show you would still constantly be whining that most of it is just them walking in space stations and generic desert sets etc. and barely ever using their rings because no show can afford to do GL the way it works in comics due to how much CGI it requires
>>152702700>>152702605
>>152702700>screaming budget every time in /got/hotd/ when a dragon showed upcome on man its hbo
>>152702525>Star Wars, Star Trek and dozens of other shows are set in space and have a tv budgetAnd they don’t require the main characters to be flying in the air while having glowing green force fields around them nor do they need massive CGI set pieces whenever they use the rings. Most of Star Trek is them talking on the bridge or other closet off small set and the CGI is just short space shots that don’t last long.
>>152702720>Its HBO! They should give3 the show a bajillion dollar budget!Its Green Lantern bro. That ryan reynolds movie soiled the name permanently. Unless this show pulls off a miracle and ends up really good, nobodys going to give any GL project a boatload of money.
>>152702720Game of Thrones was a massive mainstream cultural phenomenon show by the time they were showing the dragons for lengthy periods of time, you mouthbreathing troglodyte.
>>152701213If you told me this was a shitty Taylor Sherdian Yellowstone spin off, I'd believe you. TO be a lanternfag is to know suffering.
What's the point of the whole grounded trend? Oh, look these guys are totally super heroes but don't do anything heroic and everything is mundane, with no fantastic elements whatsoever. Just make the billionth and one gritty cop show.
>>152702611If I was an extreme cynical asshole who hated GL and thought myself as a pretentious artiste who deserve better that capeshit, I think making Hal be an active groomer that was SA'ing Arisa would be a firm way of making every normie-retard online clap at me getting rid of Hal from the show/DCU in general, making everyone hate him, while propping up John Stewart as the one everyone should like and adore.
>>152702594>You’re Indian for wanting Green Lantern’s costume to get something as simple as the color in the motherfucker’s name right Where do you Gunnfags get off
>>152702438For a show it would likely requiere a huge budget for sets, and most of them will be likely repeated. Besides it was pitched like this, it was never meant to be a show on space but a town mystery show Let’s be honest, GL is either this for a show or some cgi mess in a movie.
>>152702320Thanks, anon.
>>152702781I will guess that by the end it will likely be more similar to a green lantern project with some crazy twist with aliens or other lanterns. Probably to make it pop up more between the mundane
>>152702177Reminder that Johns, Adams and Snyder wrote this kino.
>>152702655And it looks cheap as hell from a modern HD perspective. It was a different thing when everyone had a shitty small tv and television was considered low class entertainment where you could get away with things looking cheap. It’s different in the era of 4K televisions and streaming.
>>152702861And it’s way easier sell than balls to the walls weird aliens and bright rainbow colors. Even Guardians of the Galaxy presented itself with certain low key groundedness instead of immediately being a CGI spectacle with high concept sci-fi shit
Can't wait for the Killer Croc grounded show. It will be filmed in Florida.
>>152701933why do DC shows feel the need to swear so much
>>152702896Yeah, I’m not a big fan of surf Dracula type shows, but I can see why they approved this. Either way the GLfags won’t shut up about it because they are down to 3 mid (irl) adaptations of GL and their stories
>>152702916The mark of true and mature writing, according to Garth Marengh.
>>152701213>The suit is more brown than John Stewart
Hal bros....
>>152703013It's your typical >we shouldn't do this>nuh uh, you are wrong>damn, guess the kid was right after allplot. It was expected.
>>152702962It's subversion! The suit will turn green in the last episode when John accepts the mantle!!!
>>152702154>I know you all want to go back to 2007 and live forever in the feeling you felt reading the Sinestro Corps WarWere it so simple...
>>152703013>Xanshi disliked that.
I really wanted this shit to be at least half decent. Is comic accuracy really still too much to ask for in [current year]?
>>152701213>>152703058>suit is mostly yellow>John's dig about protecting peopleThis might be Hal after his brush with Parallax.
>>152701263You’re never going to get good content again anon, have you really not figured it out by now?
I can't wait until Guy shows up.
>>152703124>Le everything badAaaaaaaaand post ignored
>>152703124I know, but still, it hurts every time...>>152703146Go back.
>>152702787This. DC and most writers don't get it. If you get rid of Hal Jordan, Green Lantern doesn't work. It breaks. Even the biggest John Stewart fan, while writing his John centric run wanted John to leave the Green Lantern behind and become his own hero (Like Robin becoming Nightwing), because there was no getting around Hal Jordan's shadow. >Hal Jordan SHOULD BE the Green Lantern>John should go back to being the leader of the Darkstars and take Katma Tui with him. >Kyle should go back to being a White Lantern, and become a Dr. Fate / Spectre character for the Emotional Spectrum. >Guy should go back to leading the Red Lantern Corps where he can develop as a character, and where his fuck ups actually have weight to them (and aren't just throwaway laughs)>Jessica should leave the corps, go back to being Power Ring, and build a Venom-like relationship with Volthoom (the actual Power Ring).>Simon shouldn't exist. Jo shouldn't exist. Teen Lantern shouldn't exist. And John's illegal construct of his DEAD SISTER should definitely not exist. And we'd all live in fucking paradise. It's literally this simple.
>>152703082YesGotta appeal to a wider audience who will ignore your show
>>152703145Guy's presence makes it even more retarded that John feels he needs to replace Hal
>>152703185I did notice that Hal didn't seem to mention Guy, so he might not even be aware he exists.
>>152702389
>>152702913Killer Croc is too busy being a gay rapist in Peacemaker
>>152703194>"I thought you said there weren't any other Human lanterns!?">comedic beat>Stewart and Jordan both look at Gardner
>>152702520Yeah anon, they made fun of her.
>>152701628Same reason they hired a 65 year old to play doctor fate.
>>152701213So I guess this happens somewhere in the past, before Guy got the ring?
>>152703415Guy gardner is on the show, who knows what they're doing
Apologize
>>152703437>Guy is going to be in all 8 episodes.Nice!
Might as well post the full supporting cast.SHERIFF KERRY MACON (Kelly Macdonald)>A no-nonsense woman deeply devoted to her family and close-knit town who becomes romantically involved with Hal Jordan. Her resilience, shaped by a complex past that has hardened her resolve, anchors her when the community’s secrets begin to surface.
ZOE MACON (Poorna Jagannathan)>The only woman of color in an all-white town and the estranged wife of its most powerful figure, Zoe effortlessly confident and poised in any setting, even those where she stands out. She is every bit as composed and cunning as the influential men around her, and develops an affair with John Stewart.
WILLIAM MACON (Garret Dillahunt)>A self-righteous, conspiracy-minded modern cowboy and industrialist who masks his true nature behind a charming and calculated facade, and Zoe's estranged husband.
BILLY MACON (Jason Ritter)>William's son and Kerry's husband, a good-looking charmer who does his father’s bidding. Capitalizing on his family’s reputation, he clings to his small-town ego and has everything to lose.
>>152702605Why is it a mystery??? No one's watching a show about Green Lantern to not see Green Lantern
ANTAAN (Paul Ben-Victor)>An alien devoted to exposing the truth and exacting vengeance against those who wronged his people. Consumed by a deep and unrelenting hatred for the law, he is determined to deliver justice on his own terms.
>>152703517>>152703529>>152703529Oh my god. Is this another midwest America is evil and it must be saved by progressives of color series?
You can literally never make a nigger happy. They're harder to make happy than a comic book fan.
THAAL SINESTRO (Ulrich Thomsen)>A ruthless yet undeniably charming former Green Lantern gone rogue. Sinestro's manipulative nature drives his enduring obsession with his former mentee Hal Jordan.
WAYLON SANDERS (Chis Coy)>A nervous truck driver at first glance who reveals himself to an intelligent survivor. Age and real name unknown, he appears to be unbound by the laws of nature.
NOAH (Cary Christopher)>A charming, polite, and gifted small-town child
BERNADETTE STEWART (Nicole Ari Parker)>John Stewart's mother. Formidable and tenacious, Bernadette refuses to give up, no matter how insurmountable the odds. At her core, she’s a fiercely protective mother who has worked her entire life to ensure that she and her family will not be passed over.
JOHN STEWART, SR. (Sherman Augustus)>John Stewart’s dementia-afflicted father and the human embodiment of "stubborn." Lost in his own reality, he tends to fixate on the past and what could have been.
>Jasmine Cephas Jones will portray the younger Bernadette Stewart
>J. Alphonse Nicholson will portray the younger John Stewart, Sr.
>>152703176Hal Jordan is boring and Gunn is retarded. Both statements can co-exist
>>152703610I bet he's being raped by an exec as we speak.
>>152703529They named her poorna?
>>152703557The original pitch was something more to a space opera with Sinestro while some lanterns (not jordan or john) on Earth resolve some issues as a sort Arrowverse type show with one young (Gadner) and one older (Scott). The pitch changed after Zaslav came into the picture, and got rid of the space stuff to focus on the Earth stuff, and change from Gadner and Scott to John and Jordan. It was also when more people from the True Detective series joined in since Gunn and Safran wanted to not fixate in one style.
>>152701213
>>152703686You're thinking of two different projects. This was the pre-Gunn pitch.>Split narrative between Alan Scott in the 40s, Guy Gardner and Bree Jarta in the 80s, and Jessica Cruz and Simon Baz in the 2020s.>Overarching storyline about the fall of Sinestro.>40s segment follows Alan becoming the first human Green Lantern and protecting the world while struggling with his homosexuality. Abin Sur, Kilowog and Rot Lop Fan also appear.>80s segment follows Guy and Bree investigating the Dominators as they assemble the Alien Alliance and execute a series of coordinated attacks across the universe. Sinestro, Kilowog and Arisia also appear.>2010s segment follows Jessica and Simon fighting the Manhunters, who have kidnapped the Guardians of the Universe. Kilowog, Tomar-Re, Katma Tui and Mogo also appear.>Sinestro is the leader of the Green Lantern Corps in the 80s, but the Guardians exile him after he subjugates his homeworld Korugar in a misguided attempted to protect it.>Hal Jordan is referenced as Sinestro’s human partner in the 80s, but doesn’t actually appear because WB was saving him and John Stewart for a movie.>The Manhunters want revenge against the Guardians because the Guardians abandoned them after they malfunctioned and massacred sector 666.>Jessica and Simon encounter the Indigo Tribe and discover that the Manhunters were actually reprogrammed by the Mad Guardian Krona.>The season would end with Jessica and Simon fighting Krona, who causes a “temporal imbalance” transporting Alan, Guy and Bree to the 2010s in season 2.Jeremy Irvine, Finn Wittrock and Tobias Menzies had been cast as Alan Scott, Guy Gardner and Sinestro respectively before the project got Zaslav'd for being too expensive, and then later Gunn, King and Lindelof came on with their True Detective ripoff pitch.
I woke up took a shit and one of my hemeoroids exploded into a bloody mess then I went to 4chan while eating breakfast and saw this and I just am so tired. Is it blood loss from my ass or is everything really this terrible?
feels like 2011 again
>>152703082>It's Arrow, not Green Arrow>it's Lanterns, not Green Lanternsthis is nostalgia for when comic book adaptations only slightly resembled the source material
>>152702438it looks cheap even when set in New Mexico
>>152701213These guys don’t want to make a superhero show so they try to make True Detective, but I know for a fact they can’t do True Detective either. They’ve co-signed themselves to making a bad show that no one wants instead of just a bad show that people wanted.
>Supergirl movie also coming outChances of this happening?
>>152702700Have you not watched tv in your life? It's full of low budget scifi people loved. Star Fleet (the one with puppets and the robot don't ask me why this is the first one that came to mind) Star Trek Tos, TNG, DS9, Voyager, enterprise, babylon 5, farscape. Lexx, Red Dwarf, a million season's of Doctor Who, old and new Battlestar Galactica. There's so much shit. Yes I'm saying go back to cheap rubber suits and plywood sets fuck cgi. Put me on a desert planet I fucking love dune and moebius fuck you.
>>1527038492011 was better than this, dude. At least they were trying to make an honest to god GL adaptation.
>>152703928She's going to fuck the Jon if this happens and Hal isnt going to be an active green lantern after this and you know it.
>>152702778This show ruled
>>152702770They let James Gunn do Suicide Squad even though the 2016 movie was an absolute dumpster fire piece of garbage and one of the worst comic book movies ever made.
>>152703578>Sinestro is in the show.Does this mean we are getting Sinestro Corps War down the line?
>>152703956I didn't mean the movie, just the general Nolanfication vibe we got from DC back in that year
>>152704095James gunn "was" the capeshit golden child that could do no wrong. This lantern show is run by a literal who.
>>152704141The writers don’t even know what that is
>>152704171>The writers are too retarded to use the internet to look up the Sinestro Corps War.Grim.
I can understand having John be the main GL in a show like Justice League where the Corps are in the periphery, but Hal and Sinestro’s dynamic is compelling enough to carry a story. John doesn’t have that dynamic with any villains. That’s why they had to give him a romance with Hawkgirl in the Justice League cartoon just to give them something to do.
>>152701213Baz won
This doesn't give me hype, in fact it makes me concerned. What stood out:>Hal dropping F bombs so casually. Seems a bit out of character>Hal implying he doesn't socialize with the Corp. >Not one goddamn alien in the trailer>Not one construct>Not wearing the uniform for just one scene to give us a taste>John's stupid "You're done, old man" speech>Not one indication of Hal's pilot background
>>152703571>midwest America is evilYes, this is correct.>it must be savedIt can't be saved, in fact the opposite needs to be done.
>>152704163>This lantern show is run by a literal who.It's the guy who wrote for Ozark. Which is a great show but doesn't fit the tone of Green Lantern IMO. They should have given him The Question or Constantine instead.
What is it about this suit that can't be translated properly to live action?
How is it so hard to adapt>Pilot crashes into an alien plane and gets a magic ring
Seriously
>>152704845>>152704855For the same reason it took 20 years to get Wolverine in the actual Wolverine costume.
don't tell me they don' have budget for scifi
>they had Hal's lantern look like Alan's lanternI'm gonna be mad as hell if they made Alan a bog standard GL in this universe or if even ONE of those apparently debunked rumors were true (especially Alan's murder being the one they are investigating or Todd being some annoying juvenile delinquent) because all of those rumors were complete ass.
>>152704927What if they're low on juice and that's legitimately Alan's lantern? Could they be siphoning off the Star Heart?
>true detctivecoulda given it to pizza like how hawely did legion
Sure Dracula And Tom King made Hal Jordan maga
How do we go from a spot on Guy Gardner to this I fucking hate Tom King
Why not use some other character if you wanted to do a small town mystery type thing John c or elongated man maybe?
>>152703176>because there was no getting around Hal Jordan's shadow.Gardner did just fine.
>>152704698>>152703590Saint Walker
>>152703176DC has an even worse problem with legacy characters than Marvel. It's one thing for Marvel to have Spider-Man: Miles Morales but DC would have to make like 3-4 books called Green Lantern: Character, 2-3 books called Flash: Character, etc. Instead they all just have to compete to be the main character and if they lose then tough shit for the next 5 years.
>>152704927Considering Hal is old as balls I wouldn’t be surprised if they just amalgamed him and Alan together.
>>152703716Can't believe I'm starting to miss this pitch.
>leakednobody believes this guerilla marketing bullshit
>>152705303Gardner has never carried a solo title to save his life, and mostly shows up in team-up books to be a one trick pony. Actually, Guy did have a "solo book" once and it was called Red Lanterns, and it worked cause he had to lead a team, play up to his strengths and weaknesses, and he wasn't GREEN.
>>152705694>guerilla marketingThey're not gonna promote Grodd in this show
>>152701304Human: HalAlien: Tie between Jack T. Chance and Dkrtzy RRR
>>152705695>Gardner has never carried a solo title to save his lifeHe did during his warrior phase
Hal Jordan is a boomer icon and white supremacy icon. Outside that, he’s boring
Everytime I search Surf Dracula on twitter it's just replying to the trailer.
>>152701213Why is this woke?It wasn't necessary
>>152705800Again, when he took of the green ring and had to become his own character. Just like his red lantern run. Yet someone at DC keeps shoving these characters back into green lanterns
>>152705905off*
>>152701213Why is the ring yellow? What the fuck is this shit?
Isn't this what /co/ wanted? This is basically Snyderverse Green Lantern.
ummm, where's baz?
>>152702253Peak Green Lantern would be c. 1985. There was another peak c. 1993.2007 is a rehash combined with hack material.
>>152705889kek
>>152705903It being woke slop is unironically the least of its problems.
>>152702781Demoralization. It's fucking Tom King, you should know this already.
>>152702877I hope every syudio thinks like you and bankrupts themselves for such idiocy.
>>152701213This trailer give me Watchmen vibes for some reason.
>>152703013Yeah.Hey, why don't you go fuck up and destroy another planet, John.kek
>>152703013>Xanshi isn't 'people'Damn, John. That's, uh, that's pretty fucking racist!
>>152702154Fuck you
>>152706342It's made by the same retard.
What I'm gleaning from this and the Supergirl teaser is that James Gunn is the only comic book filmmaker who remembers that color grading is a thing.
>>152706413ahahaha is he gonna write another retarded letter?
>>152705303...at getting one-punched by Batman while literally crying about wanting a shot at the REAL Green Lantern.
>>152706422It and lighting are lost arts in Hollywood
>>152702916It's because they're desperate to prove they aren't making stuff for immature little children.Which, incidentally, is precisely the mindset of immature little children.
>>152702953Who's that faggot?
>>152702953jej thanks
>>152703437>PoornaWhat kind of name is that?
>>152701628The show was made by the guy who made the HBO Watchmen series and Tom King
>>152703571Pretty much
>>152702154>John has more normie goodwill because of the cartoon.The cartoon came out 25 years ago that excuse doesn’t work anymore

>>152703543The actor playing this character spoiled he was playing Black Hand

>>152706624>He's in.
>>152706427To whom?

>>152706422He signed off on both though so he thinks it looks fine.
>>152706624>>152706642So are they to trying to do grounded cop stuff or not this is mixed vibes
>>152707054The plot is about Hal and John investigating a strange murder in the boonies only to discover an ancient horror that will tie into the larger DCU story. Rumors are its either going to be The Centre (because Gunn cited the New Frontier as one of main inspirations) or Nekron (because he's a crisis-tier threat and a GL villain).
>>152706581Normie here. In 25 years I got so fucking tired of diversity bullshit so I dont want this.
>>152701795He's a little bug guy and comes from a planet of little bug people that constantly wage war on each other.
>>152701213>green lantern>doesn't wear greenJames Gunn is a hack.
>>152701263This is Surf Dracula irl- 8 episodes will build up in to a 5 minute scene of Hal and John being Lanterns in the last episode.
>>152701263>>152701628>>152702700
>>152702700>walking in space stations and generic desert sets etc.uhh hyeah??
I hope my GOAT makes an appearance
>Not one alienWhy?
>>152707929Killawog and Sinestro will show up in the final 5 minutes
Prediction: Sinestro only appears in flashbacks and died prior to the show
>>152707745Folks where's the lie
>>152707140>Nekron.Finally, it may be his time to shine. Darkseid can go kick rocks on Apokalips.
>>152707585Wut? You mean Xax? Do you have any idea how many times that little nigga has died?
>>152703557But people would watch a straight forward GL show despite multiple failed attempts?
>>152703942We both know you would whine endlessly that they almost never use their rings and most of the show is just drama and the plot requiring everyone to act like idiots and there being too much focus on side characters to pad out the running timeYou know, like what 99% of all complaints were with Flash and Arrow and how in Legends they basically did dick all apart from running around for most of the season like headless chickens, failing to stop the bad guy at every turn despite being time travelers, and although they had meta humans in the cast they barely did anything with their powers because of how nerfed they were.
>>152706341Oh right, as if this place doesn’t bitch about bad CGI every fucking time
>>152701213HEY HEY HEYCh'p got mentioned. Shut yer cake holes you hookers. I've been looking forward to something GL since the first movie, even tho it was mid, I remember seeing it and I was exited. AT LEAST it was something. So lets hope this trailer was just shit but the series will be good. Right up there with the HP series. But we all know they are gonna fuck that up anyway. >>152701482If they can act they got the part. They dont care about looks remotely. Take Superman 2025. Looks like Bollywoodman>>152702177the only thing Snyder knew how to write well. An amazing series.
A lot of people who've never read a GL comic in their lives are going to reference things they don't understand to defend this show>oh no bro, you don't understand this is a reference to Nekron!>How could you not be excited, this means we get the Red Lanterns!>Volthooom brooooo!
>>152707793And remember how it was axed after two seasons and then removed completely from streaming because it failed to find a sustainable audience despite critical acclaim?
>>152707745That tweet is legendary
>>152708688Are you telling me you dont wanna see that 1 red lantern fall in love with the Ship's embodiment of his dead wife and then later realize, "FUCK I have feelings too you asshole" wait that was the series.
>>152701628Because it’s standard writing technique to have a rookie/newbie character that learns things along with the audience. Contentions student/mentor relationship is also more interesting and allows more dramatic tension than two veteran partners who respect each other.
>>152708688How would someone who hasn't read the comics know about volthoom
>>152708320Blackest night only work's if characters people like are already dead it's not something they should jump right into
>>152708696Because it keeps happening. Modern shows are all about set up and season 2, if they ever get it, somehow fails to deliver on the promise of season 1
>>152708673>We both know you would whine endlessly that they almost never use their rings and most of the show is just drama and the plot requiring everyone to act like idiots and there being too much focus on side characters to pad out the running time>putting words in my mouth >imagining you know everything I think>for a show that doesn't exist I dont know how to address most of your post because it's all in your head but I would love drama it's why I loved DS9 so much. Its just they were actually scifi shows set in space too. And they had spaceships and shot lasers too which would be the equivalent of constructs and flying around for GLs I guess.
>>152708795It's either that or Season 1 is good then everything turns to shit and implodes immediately
>>152708821Comparing Star Trek to Green Lantern is idiotic
>>152708748DCSHG fags interested in Jess skimming wikis, probably.
>>152708830They literally had a crossover lol
