GREEN LANTERN

Over at WonderCon, a chunk of Martin Cambell's (Casino Royale) Green Lantern was shown to an eager crowd. I say eager, because the first look a few months back was very underwhelming. The general public is now able to get a condensed version, and it seems to have appeased the masses. More so than other popular comic characters, Green Lantern touches on a cosmic scale, which is something that Martin seems to have captured.



I like Ryan Reynolds a lot, and Mark Strong who plays Sinestro, looks all sorts of freaky. Geoffrey Rush also plays the voice of Tomar-Re, the odd looking alien that greets Hal Jordan (Reynolds) when he lands on Oa. With this, Thor, Captain America: The First Avenger, and X-Men: First Class all being released in the next few months, comics are going to be front and center this summer. I for one, hope that it's all pulled off.

After the break, check out a new one-sheet as well.

Green Lantern arrives June 17, 2011.
