It appears confirmed that original Green Lantern, Alan Scott, is to be DC’s previously announced gay character.
When did “edgier” and “darker” become synonymous with “better.” This is all The Dark Kinght’s fault.
Also, “edgier” doesn’t mean anything.
hard-to-describe-deactivated201 asked: i've been hearing that the reviews from Green Lantern aren't good. is this true?
Ummm…
(Note: That’s the Top Critics score.) I haven’t seen it, nor do I plan on seeing it. You’re on your own, America!
Teaser Trailer: The Muppets Send Up Green Lantern – It’s Not Easy Being Green
Love the self reflexive bit at the end and “Not in Swedish. We promise” made me laugh out loud. Also whoever they got to do the voice over at the beginning sounds suspiciously like Ryan Reynolds.

Jim Carrey visited Letterman last night and delivered a memorable Tom Hanks Late Show appearance word for word.
He’s still got it.

This week’s EW Cover: “Why I’m Obsessed with Ryan Reynolds,” by… Ryan Reynolds.
He would. Also, EW loves its orange and blue. (As seen here, here, and here).
Final Trailer: GREEN LANTERN | Badass Digest
Warner Bros. is shelling out a little more green to get Green Lantern finished. Variety reports that thanks to the movie’s rushed production schedule and effects-heavy look, the studio is adding $9 million to the budget in an emergency allocation to make sure Lantern is done on time. Despite the last-minute panic, that sort of problem has become the norm for summer tentpoles, with other movies like Transformers: Dark of the Moon, X-Men: First Class, and Captain America rushing to make their release dates. Maybe the studios should listen to Harrison Ford, who grumbled about the rise of special effects to the L.A. Times: “With the CGI, suddenly there’s a thousand enemies instead of six — the army goes off into the horizon. You don’t need that,” the Cowboys & Aliens star said. “The audience loses its relationship with the threat on the screen. That’s something that’s consistently happening and it makes these movies like video games and that’s a soulless enterprise. It’s all kinetics without emotion. I don’t have time for that.” [Variety, Hero Complex/LAT]
Yeesh.
