Description
For more Lil Formers head to www.LilFormers.comSo Ryan Reynolds is cast as HAl Jordan int eh Green Lantern movie! No real opinion on that yet. He seemed fine as Deadpool in the Wolverine movie but before that I'd never heard of the guy. Hopfully it'll be a good choice. Unfortunately it means he most likely won't be in the planned Deadpool movie, so that'll either be recast or more likely just fall apart... Oh well, I am a bigger GL fan than Deadpool anyways!
As for my expectations on the GL movie, here's hoping they don't screw it up. My thought is, a truly great GL movie would have to be space-based, with the whole GL corps, Guardians, Sinestro etc, which would be very expensive. I dont' think they're willing to spend that much money on an untested property so the best we can hope for is an okay Earth-based movie. BUT if we're lucky it'll make enough money that they do a bigger-budget space sequel. I think GL2 is our best hope for a really stellar Green Lantern movie.
Oh PS... have wanted to do a Deadpool strip for quite a while. I know there're tons of '

The entire universe isn't going to be safe from this. I might be wrong but I'm happy for a Green Latern movie, though it's probably going to be hard to pull it off, well who's the director and writers?

W8....is he GL in a cartoon movie..or an upcoming live action movie, because I thought/heard he wanted to play The Flash ( Fastest man alive from Justice Legaue) which was going to be a solo movie just about that character. I really wish he does flash, because I think he has the characteristics of portraying him very well.

Reynolds has appeared in at least 3 movies in the last 6 months alone! GL is further along as far as pre-production and will probably hit screens first, but Reynolds is a HUGE Deadpool fan. I don't see any reason why he couldn't do both.
Of course, FOX may disagree with me... dicks.
Anydangway, great piece of work, Mr. Moylan, and a mental picture that'll keep me chuckling all day long.

DEADPOOL! I LOVE Deadpool! He's my 2nd favorite superhero, 1st being Batman!
According to the the almighty Wikipedia he's still scheduled for both films, but I actually hope he stays on Deadpool if he has to drop one for the other. He's better suited for Deadpool. He's awesome at playing an egotistical, witty, but lovable jackass. Ever seen "Van Wilder?"

good choice on second favorite super hero...
Kinda feel that ryan got shafted in that last movie though, ten minuets of screen time, then when they actually make him into a guy called "deadpool" he is played by somebody else...

Yeah, Reynolds admits that wasn't Deadpool-Deapool, more a pre-'ool Wilson. He really wants to do a Deadpool movie straight out of the comics though.
Let's hope he gets his wish.

A GL film would be awesome, I reckon Ryan fit's the bill! I'd personally prefer him in that than the Deadpool movie seeing as I didn't like what they did with the character once the experiments were made (he was great when he "had a mouth").
Found this on the net a while back, thought you GL fans may be interested if you haven't seen it yet: [link]
Nathan Fillion would have made a brilliant Hal Jordan!

DC hasn't messed anything up in awhile, and if they take a pit from Marvel and produce it in-house, then I think fans should rest assured that they'll get it right. Ryan is more of a funny man, but I can see him as wise cracking pilot Hal Jordan.

As far as I'm concerned, I so hope Ryan won't be playing Deadpool in the planned movie. He's just not macho enough
Anyway, nice work. Couldn't help but laugh ^-^

Ryan Reynolds, he's the sort of hard-core version of Jason Lee? (I originally thought that Reynolds character in Blade was Lee after about a year of hitting the gym.)
Nice rendition.

LOL. Reynolds has been around a while but is always best in comedies. I understand his casting for his look and growing fan base, but I'm not sure if he can carry a movie that's not comedic in nature. Then again he's never done a film filled with effects either so.... As for the space thing, I'm a huge GL fan myself and I totally agree. Won't be done 100% right with out the space epic aspect, only time will tell

Ryan Reynolds,....a comedy actor being a villain in the Wolverine movie...and now GL?...wow...they're really running out of people to play heroes. I never would have expected it. I just can't imagine him playing Hal Jordan...I think I've just been Van Wilder'd to death with his style of comedic acting. I mean there was Van Wilder, Waiting, and that movie with him and Sandra Bullock, The Proposal, I think. Now, Wolverine and GL? Well, who knows? Maybe it'll be a suprise hit?

a GL film would be cheap as fuck think of it, no need to do expensive alien spaceships like in startrek, you simply colour green around an actor. you need a barren/rocky alien world, film in the desert, need Sinestro, hire a big nosed British actor and paint him pinky red lol
get some busty babes, colour them red and pink, youve got female GL's, hire some dwarfs, colour them blue, youve got gaurdians...cheaper than doing a normal movie, use all the old space stock footage from previous sci-fi films haha
OH and get one of those pigmen-egnogs off Fith Element...Kilowog
HONEST bro, read the most recent serise of DeadPool, it's FARRRRRR better than Green Lantern and i'm a GL fan

Marvelguru In reply to ??? [2009-07-20 07:49:26 +0000 UTC]
My idea for Green Lantern movie is this, first movie sets the villains the Manhunter robots against the GL corp instead of Sinestro as the main villain. the reason I say this is because I think it would be cool if the movie explored the relationship between Hal and Sinestro before he turned evil. at the end of the movie Sinestro turns evil and in the second he gets the yellow ring.

To be honest I see him more as Deadpool than GL, hell he even wanted to be The Flash, it could've worked out as the guy talks a LOT, Hal Jordan is kinda cocky but doesn't talk as much as Raynolds does, Deadpool suits him better, I just hope they don't screw it up by making it too family-friendly like they did with Superman Returns =/

I thought I'd heard he was up for being either Wally or Barry if they made a Flash movie. Perhaps I misheard...or he's just going to play a lot of heroes over the next few years.

That is one of the scariest things I have ever seen.
You're probably right about the GL movie, they probably will have it based on Earth. Still, it wouldn't be to surprising if Sinestro still showed up as the villain, after all, he is one of the greatest GL villains. And in the next movie, they could have the Sinestro Corps to up the ante and have a reason to include more of the GL Corps.
