oh, i've always liked his acting. just thought it was an odd choice. wouldn't have thought of him when thinking of people to fill that role


maybe b/c f4 is in the same 'verse



What?


They made Fantastic 4 movies?


No. No that never happened. You've lost your mind.



Denial? Isn't that one of the steps to dealing with your problems?

Source Code was good, I enjoyed. I liked Moon better, and am of mixed feelings about SC's ending, but I'm glad I saw it.

Not sure about Thor or Captain America yet (I can see the finished product going either way), but that Green Lantern trailer was awesome. Although when I first read this thread title I couldn't understand how the Green Hornet could go from absolute crap when it was already released.

p.s. how exactly does a face-comforming eye-mask hide someone's identity?

I don't get why everyone is complaining about the mask. It looks almost exactly like the one from the comics.

And yeah I saw something somewhere where they were freaking out because both of the movies have Green in the title, so they're worried people won't have the attention span to read the second word when making their movie selection.

Oh, I wasn't saying it didn't look like the comic books (I've never read them), and the mask looks good to me. My question is hardly limited to Green Lantern among super heroes anyway... I just think the idea that an eye-only mask would prevent someone from identifying the wearer is amusing. So funny to see the "when you need your identify to be secret the mask will appear" or whatever line spelled out.

Then again this is the world of comic books, where Clark Kent isn't recognized thanks to black plastic glasses and dorkier hair. And no spandex.

That is very true, the logic is pretty silly and the only difference really is that his eyes turn green. He still even has the same hair. Totally hard to tell him apart!

But yeah while the mask is silly, it's still a comic book movie so I'll suspend disbelief for it.

Most importantly is holy crap look at all those lanterns this is gonna be super sweet.

yeah, the superman disguise method has always been the most implausible >_> would it be so hard to use a helmet? in fact, why doesn't he just use a lead-lined suit complete with face mask ALL THE TIME?!?

I've been thinking you meant this movie the whole time.


And yes, the first trailer makes the green latern look like it sucks.


The second trailer gives it more depth.

Yeah I started seeing the comments/reviews and decided I'd wait for dvd.

Shame.

I let myself get way too geeked out too often
