Thoughts /tv/? I'm still not entirely sold, a bit too dour and grounded for what I would want out of a Green Lantern story. Plus, if the reported leaks are true, it won't get much better. https://youtu.be/GCyG3x_TyM8?si=VGz-ol-pz8jGuOBm
>>222520951it was like a 90 IQ check to realize at the start this was going to be garbage from "TV" "DC Studios" and "Lanterns".
Hal Jordan is supposed to be the only Green Lantern who keeps his identity a secret. Why the hell is he giving interviews?
>>222520951Why don't these niggas just suit up and fix their shitholes. wtf is this show even about if they just gonna nerf their powers. the fuck is this shit, DC?
>the leak about hal's ring being meant for John's father was realgg...
>>222521292My main issue so far is that this timeline makes no sense. Superman makes his debut canonically in the 2022 meanwhile Green Lantern has been around for decades and apparently Batman is already going to have Damian as his robin, which would imply in this universe Dick Grayson has been a hero longer than Superman?
>capeslop
>>222521564Eh I don’t mind. The ring was initially meant for Guy but it went to Half first because he was closer. I like the growing with the job trope. >>222522128I like it cause it makes the world feel alive. Barry and Hal being older feels alright to me, especially if they want Wally as the Flash, the weirdest aspect to me is the ages of Green Arrow and Black Canary. Are they also going to be Hal’s age? Maybe they’ll be a bit older than Superman but younger than Hal? Skipping out on the Ollie/Hal friendship would be a bummer. And replacing Hal with John doesn’t feel right at all.
>>222522258I just don’t dig the implication that Dick Grayson is Supermans peer, considering Superman is usually a mentor figure for him and is partly the reason he adopts the Nightwing mantle.
>>222520951I don't get it. So is the jigaaboo's dad abusive or not? They are terrified of him, he comes in like he is going to beat them, shoots an apple off the kids head and says lets go for burgers and everyone smiles.
>>222522357I don’t like that either. Maybe they can have Dick at early to mid-20s, Jason a similar age but dead, (Tim skipped lol) and Damian as a teenager.
>>222522357>>222522533Forgot to add, that doesn’t prevent the weird situation where Dick has been a hero as long as Superman, which I don’t like either.
DOA just like all DC stuff.Fuck off with your shilling.
>>222520951looks kino
>>222520951i just hope it delivers on the true detective vibe i was getting from one of the trailersand i like aaron pierre, he was good in rebel ridgekyle chandler seems like a nice actor too... anyone got any recs to check him out?
>written by damon lindelof Don’t even need to watch any of it to know it’s shit
>>222522890Wolf of wall street
when are you idiots growing out of super heroes?
>>222520951I just want Green Lantern doing superhero shit in space. Not this cop-slop bullshit. I hate cop shows. They're all the same!
>>222523125damn he was in that?i checked and hes in "the rip" too so i might try that sooner than later but mostly hes done tv...
>>222523189pretty sure there was a shot of foreign planet in 1 of the trailersbut i imagine theyll keep the budget low for s1 and stay on earth... if its a hit maybe have broader horizons in season 2 idk
>>222522890first season of bloodline was good. mendelsohn is always a pleasure to watch too.
>>222523010Don't forget literal CIA glowie Tom King.
>>222523426>Get a hit making a grounded low-tech cop show on earth>Maybe that'll convince them to do the exact opposite for season 2.Yeah. I could see that. Makes total sense.
>>222523581nothing wrong with either setting in moderationwe dont even know how much space stuff really is in the series if they hid it in trailersik it sounds like cope but could be true
>>222523380he's the good guy FBI dude in Ithttps://youtu.be/ojWbip26nQs?is=9Ni9byYVS74jrqJY>>222523162(you)
>>222523751>hid it in trailers>"Hey, you know that aspect of the character everyone likes that we put a lot of in the show? Better not show hardly any of it in the trailers. That way people won't be interested in watching."Holy shit. It makes total sense.
>>222520951John Sr. shooting John Stewart was so over the top it made me chuckle
>>222522258Just create a world where the justice society exists, and stop making everyone from the silver age (plus batman, superman, wonder woman, and aquaman) be so disorganized, keep them together in the same timeframe. It's not that hard
>>222520951It's gonna shit all over Hal to make John look better, isn't it?
>>222522486He's mad that Hal Jordan took/stole the ring from him (something that never happens in the comics)
>>222523969Yeah, normies will clap until they buy a GL comic book and realize John has not personality and no stories
>>222520951Where's Jessica and Kyle?
>>222523895guess we'll find out
>>222524156You can. I ain't watching this shit.
>>222522258>I like it cause it makes the world feel alive.If only DC had a dedicated team of heroes whose whole schtick is that they predate the Justice League.
>>222523895That WWE wrestler is the only person who seems to legitimately like Green Lantern
>>222524510I've always thought you should build a DC universe on the back of some Justice Society content. Start with a Sandman and The Justice Society movie. Have that start us out in the 40s, carry us through to the modern era and really make the "DC universe" itself the star of the show.
>>222524066Will never be adapted
woke?
>>222524706Well, him, and his pal/personal confidant Ace Reporter Greg Helms.
>>222520951I was looking at the comments and saw this. What the hell is going on?
>>222520951surf dracula
>>222525065HBO Bots?
>>222525170it could be just genuine npcs
>>222524066They are going to star in the my adventures with green latern cartoon.
>>222522258>I like it cause it makes the world feel alive. Barry and Hal being older feels alright to me, especially if they want Wally as the Flash, the weirdest aspect to me is the ages of Green Arrow and Black Canary. Are they also going to be Hal’s age? Maybe they’ll be a bit older than Superman but younger than Hal? Skipping out on the Ollie/Hal friendship would be a bummer. And replacing Hal with John doesn’t feel right at all.What a terrible post. No it doesn't fucking work because it makes things more complicated than they should be. If you're going to make Hal Jordan old to phase him out, then do it like how they in the comics by finally giving Kyle Rayner the role he was intended for. Instead they're giving it to John Stewart because he's the only black hero DC has, despite being a supporting character.
>>222525065aren't these types of bots common?
That costume is ass
>>222526303It worked in the comics because Hal Jordan is supposed to be a fit younger man instead of a geriatric.
>>222526303yea why does it have to look 2 sizes too large for him and so stiff and bulky?
>>222526303Why DOES it look so shitty? It's obvious he won't be wearing it for more than 3 minutes, so it's not like they were bound by things like practicality and the actor's need to move around; but it looks like shit anyways.
>>222525860>he's the only black hero DC hasStatic is a 100% more interesting and fun than John Stewart. That should be their black hero trump card.
>>222526600There's also Mr. Teriffic, Steel, Cyborg, Vixen, Icon, Bloodwynd and plenty more that are less boring than John is.
>>222526896Frozone
>>222526921I would genuinely rather watch a show about Ghetto Man than one about John Stewart.
>>222526997I would rather watch a Batman V Superman spoof starring these two
>>222524766Kek
>>222526600>>222526896Noone of these is a core JL member, that's why Gunn went with the black space cop, he shouldn't have killed Hal if he did, and ofc he shouldn't have introduced Guy Gardner.
>>222526600>>222526896Both of these are true. >>222527266Being the GL on the JL never works, not even if you're Hal Jordan, because being on the JL means being a support character for Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman. The only guy to make it work was Guy Gardner because Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman weren't in the JLI.
>>222520951I'm sick of negro focused movies
So is this DCEU, DCU or Arrowverse? I wish DC stuff wasn't so fragmented.
>>222527316>because being on the JL means being a support character for Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman.You forgot Flash even if he is more a plot device, and you could argue that Martian Manhunter or the Thanagarians are more interesting, they are not.
>>222527048Based.
>>222527316>erm...Batman was in JLIBut I see what you mean. In GL comics Hal and and Batman hate each other, and have had physical altercations in the past (more prominent during the Geoff Jones run). It's a shame they don't keep that in mind when writing JL, but I guess they don't have batwank fatigue
>>222520951Looks kino. Can't wait. This might be the only great thing that came from Gunn's DC universe.
It would be hilarious if this failed.
>>222527544the new Gunn DCU you kind of just have to deal with DC being fragmented, even the animated movies are
