I found a photo of Ryan Reynolds in his Green Lantern costume.
Looking forward to this movie. This is really a great time for comic fans. The studios seem very willing to do comic based films.
So I'm guessing that this is photoshoped from something else

Looks cool! A lot of negative feedback on the flick though. But, critics always say that....I for one will be in line to see it!
How can there be negative feedback when the movie isn't even done yet? I can't blame that on critics. Maybe disgruntled fanboys, but critics are a bit more professional.
Really? Since when are critics professional? I mean, lets be honest here.  The only difference between a critic and a non-critic is that they get paid a LOT to give their biased opinion on something.  Period.  Besides, in my post, I use the term critic as one who is critical of something, not necessarily as a "professional" movie critic. :) And X, doesn't matter that the film isn't finished yet, when has that ever stopped critics, both of the professional and amateur persuasion, from making comments on a project?
My comment was based on this article about Comic Con: http://heatvision.hollywoodreporter.com/2010/07/is-comiccon-bad-for-your-movie.html#more
Take it for what it's worth...:) Peace out...

I guess you could have negative critics on the film if the screenplay is bad. You can definetly read a screenplay and say you don't like it as it's no different from reading a book.

Ripley: Ash. Any suggestions from you or Mother?
Ash: No, we're still collating.
Ripley: [Laughing in disbelief] You're what? You're still collating? I find that hard to believe.

I for one hold little on what critics have to say about a film.  I've never been one to go with the floe anyway, and generally like to decide for myself.  Now, I'm not poohing on critics at all, I think they serve a very real and useful purpose, but because most of them are "classically" trained, that is, most prefer artsy type of films, I don't listen too carefully to what they say. Just my opinion.

Negative feedback - already?  I haven't really heard that.  Plus the movie is like a year away.  Lets not jump to any conclusions quite yet.

Just a strange observation...

One of the posted pics re this movie - the one from a magazine with a woman's hand on the guy's chest - right below her hand there appears some lettering - looks as if on the inside of his shirt. Can't really make it out. Thought at first it was from the opposite side of the magazine page but it seems to flow with the contour of his shirt. Just saying - perhaps its a code... a message.

I don't know what everyones problem is with Fantastic Four.. I enjoyed both movies.

The problem Kenny, is the FF movies don't do the comic justice.  I kind of enjoyed the films for some of the fun moments, but I really want to see a more faithful version sometime.  And frankly, the Green Lantern comics have even less humor for the most part.

Guess it's good then that I haven't read the comic books.. :)
