I CAN NOT WAIT FOR THIS MOVIE!! I know there are people who are going to complain about the trailer (probably the same group the complained about the suit), but I have to say the more I see from the movie, the more excited I get.
The Cameraman and I were talking last night about Ryan Reynolds as Hal. The Cameraman (who doesn’t read the comics) isn’t sure Ryan was a good choice (I was a little skeptical at first too, but seeing him on the cover of EW wiped all of that away). Ryan is the perfect combination of sexy (he made People magazine’s Sexist Man Alive this year) and funny to play Hal Jordon, and I for one cannot wait to see him bring Hal to life on the big screen…might even go to a midnight showing!
Each sector of space is protected by a Green Lantern, possessing a power ring that uses a powerful green energy to do anything within the limits of the user’s imagination and will power. When the Green Lantern assigned to this sector of space finds himself dying on planet Earth, he tells the ring to find a suitable successor. The chosen replacement, hot-shot test pilot Hal Jordan, finds himself with a new job he never expected…
Green Lantern stars Ryan Reynolds, Blake Lively, Mark Strong, Peter Sarsgaard, Tim Robbins. It will be in theaters on June 17, 2011.
(You might need to give the trailer a few seconds to load, it seems everyone is looking for the trailer & it is slowing down the server).
