Why can't Hal's suit look like Sinestro's suit? Sinestro's suit looks like what a Green Lantern suit should look like.
[url]http://nymag.com/daily/entertainment...g_special.html[/url] They are having trouble getting the visuals done and the production schedule has been rushed. Not good to hear for a movie like this. This is what happens when you do a stupid rushed 3D conversion that looks terrible. Sucks about them needing to work on the effects even at this late point. Those posters look awful, it seems like every other comic movie has similar poster layouts.
Posters look fine.

It's shit that it happens this often, but it does. I was reading an article about this somewhere, but fuck if I can be bothered to track it down right now.
Hates: Ryan Reynolds Parallax CGI looks Awful Hal's Suit looks Awful Blake Lively ( Terrible Actress and doesnt fit the Carol Ferris Role at all ) Alot of the CGI looks out of place and just wrong The Green Lantern comics do an amazing job with the mythos and story yet part of the story for the movie looks terrible. Likes: They actually got the Oath right but the way Ryan say's it in the trailer sounds fucking terrible.
So you basically hate even the only thing you like?
[QUOTE=Marden;29508961]So you basically hate even the only thing you like?[/QUOTE] yeah pretty much, im a huge fan of Green Lantern and a massive fan of the Comics and hell they've even started changing things in the comics to match the films which pisses me off so much.

Hey oh! Another trailer. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7-GO9fo9DtM[/media]
Viral sites, ahoy! [url]http://www.newtonastronomers.com/[/url] [url]http://greenlanternbootcamp.com/[/url] [url]http://drwaller.net/[/url] Geoffery Rush talks about Tomar-Re. [quote]"I voiced an owl in Legends of the Guardians and I did a pelican in Finding Nemo, I think it’s time to add half fish, half lizard, to put that arrow in my quiver." "Having voiced cartoon/animated stuff before, you know that you’re in good hands. I was always blown away that Albert Brooks and Ellen DeGeneres met at the premiere [of Finding Nemo]. It sounds like they improvised off each other, riffing, but, you know, the creators of those worlds, they get lots of alternate takes, they let people off the leash, and then they have to kind of… because I don’t think much ever hits the cutting room floor in those films. They’re beautifully storyboarded and stuff.[/quote]
Hello doctor! [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/6syDd.jpg[/IMG]

Oh yes, another trailer accompanied by Geoffrey Rush's sexy aussie voice. [media]http://youtube.com/watch?v=P1TlpMH44UE[/media]
I seen the trailer that was shown before Thor, it doesn't look bad on the big screen.
[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/S1F97.jpg[/IMG] I don't think I'll see in 3D. Still haven't seen a 3D movie yet though.
I doubt it was actually shot in 3D, just done in post like most films. Thor looked horrid in 3D. [editline]25th May 2011[/editline] Yes this film has been converted not shot in 3D.
[QUOTE=Rong;29966544]Oh yes, another trailer accompanied by Geoffrey Rush's sexy aussie voice. [media]http://youtube.com/watch?v=P1TlpMH44UE[/media][/QUOTE] That was easily the best trailer I've seen for the film. Probably because it was about the Green Lantern Corp and not Ryan Reynolds.

Way to exaggerate.
It has began. [url]http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/green_lantern/[/url]
[quote][img]http://i.imgur.com/ThpTQ.jpg[/img][/quote] Is it just me or do the effects look a bit off? like you can tell it is CGI in one glance. This seems to be particularly prevalent in this one picture.
[QUOTE=Rong;30469026]It has began. [url]http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/green_lantern/[/url][/QUOTE] Looks like the first batch of critics are not enjoying it. Lets see how the public receives it, though I'm not feeling too confident about this movie.
You know, GL will probably mirror Batman & Robin. It becomes a box-office success but critics hated it. Warner Bros. lay off plans for a sequel. Years later, an innovative director takes up the project. A reboot. Hailed as best comic book movie of the decade.
Words cannot describe how unbelievably ridiculous this film looks. I'm not sure if that is a bad thing.
