This is why i still LOVE the Justice League unlimited episode where they turn into kids and batman takes advantage of John being a kid so he goes on a full rampage with a mech suit 😆
Honestly, it depends on who’s writing him. Most writers are just too dumb to make Hal effectively use his power. Under a good writer, Hal can do way more impressive stuff than this.
@@eon1014 So basically the creators that has no creativity decided to give Hal lack of creativity and imagination as a trait to try to hide their own lack of creativity
Dude it's about willpower, not imagination Yes, your imagination takes place too, but willpower is dominant in power that you create with the ring What about the yellow lantern... idk how the yellow lantern ring works...
@@valdi1038 doesn't change the lack of imagination by inept creatives. Edit: Also, courage sounds like a more specific aspect pertaining the Green Lantern Corp; as willpower works as a default among the Lantern technology when shaping the energy.
I've seen this like 500 times and just now I realised what's wrong with it. Every other time I've seen Hal Jordan make a plane construct, he's inside it piloting it, so I just assumed he was inside this one too. No, he just made this one and threw it, and Hal Jordan't was too stupid to just move out of the way. Now, if this was in the comics, I'd argue it could be a pretty cool scene. Hal Jordan't, once a proud pilot, now taken down by a plane because he was too focused on destroying it. A good writer could do something with the idea, or use it as a cool visual metaphor. But because it's this game it's just random nonsense probably
honestly it would've been an awesome scene had yellow Hal had the opposition type thing like you said as a visual metaphor or him using the brute force way, but it turned into this funny scene instead probably because of budget reasons as its easier to animate this than to make a whole scene of constructs and stuff of them fighting for one scene.
Green Hal: What's that? He's summoned an anti-aircraft gun? I know, I'll use *_AN AIRCRAFT._* Yellow Hal: What's that? An aircraft is coming right for me and it's not stopping? I know, I'll... stay right here and hope this eventually works out.
They are 2 versions of the most stubborn man in DC of course they would use exactly what should be the worst thing and not move despite being able to, also good Hal could just either turn the construct or make another.
Funny you should say that. Kyle Rayner, the most creative Green Lantern, is canonically a giant Gurren Lagann fan and has even made a legally distinct version of the mech before.
@@agenericguy1014 Yes. Kyle is a big fan of anime and an artist. One kf his defining traits amongst the Earth Lanterns is his creativity, while Hals is really his sheer willpower.
I can't remember which one it was but I recall reading a green lantern story where he was overwhelmed by his enemy so he just started summoning random thoughts that came to his mind and he was able to repel his enemy through the sheer force of it
It seems like after the 2011 film, nobody can write Green Lantern's powers in a cool or inventive way like he did in the Justice League animated series.
The crazy thing is, he never does anything cool in the animated series either! He mostly just flies, shoots laser blasts and summons protective bubbles. He makes a mecha suit when he turns into a get and (I think) he makes an axe when fighting the Thanagarian leader. Nobody really know how to write GL :(
@@damiannova5207 I'm going to push back on that notion that he didn't do anything cool in the animated series since there's plenty of times where he used it for something cool and creative. For instance, he used it as shield that extended tendrils to knock out two armed gunmen, a power set that served two purposes at the same time. Plus, the before mentioned shoot lasers, flies and summon protective shields were still pretty cool on their own. It's the kind of stuff that Iron Man could do. The problem is when they make him do something big and awkward with his powers that could've been done on a smaller scale and less over the top. For example, in Injustice 2, he creates a giant rig to run over some robots instead of doing something more practical.
Guys, mind you that Green Hal is more creative than Yellow Hal...you know...Will is less powerful but more creative than Fear, and this scene says alot
@@alyasVictorio i wonder why they never actually explored fear more, you’d think horror monsters and phobias would be a strong thing to imagine and use, like monsters and stuff.
Visually by fact, yes, a tower can't stand a kamikaze impact. Yet in context the Green Lantern Hal's willpower is greater than Sinestro Lantern Hal's hability to inflict fear.
I still can't believe they did that in the movie, Flash was one of the most important characters in the Injustice comics but they just offed him right at the start in the movie. Then they replaced some of his scenes with Mister Terrific for some reason.
If I'd given any ring, I'd create something that generates more sonic vibration in singular focus at only one direction and it would be one shot down, instead of what he made it...
Actually that wouldn't work, they operate in outer space, near stars exploding planets and all sorts and travel faster than light let alone sound on the regular. Also one Lantern is blind and uses his ring to create various frequencies.
After seeing a list of various abilities the ring can do in the comics, it’s pretty baffling how lanterns are adapted in other media. I know almost every DC character is nerfed from their comic versions in other media but the lanterns get it bad.
This is what happens when uncreative writers gets their hands on a hero who has a power based on imagination. If Hal was actually allowed to be smart for once, he could probably solo most of the Regime by himself.
green lantern when he realizes that he can just turn into anything which his simple little mind can comprehend which isnt basic ass movie bullshit like planes, guns, etc.
Ah yes how dare the air force test pilot make planes. What's next the, the Marine sniper making rifles? Or maybe the mechanic making cars? The mechanic is Simon Baz in case you didn't know
@@CopperLoveAndKisses ah so the thing you most associate with is being lazy. They make what reflects parts of their personality, and it is extremely unlikely almost anyone could even spark a Green Lantern ring.
For a character that’s ability is imagination, all he really does is make guns and turrets 😂 he also could’ve just made a counter but really had to stand his ground in it 😂
if i were a green lantern i'd create the wackiest of stuff also why doesnt green lantern create a clone of superman? he can already replicate animals and other beings i dont see why he shouldn't be able to create superman,
I always assumed that ring constructs didn't get the power of the objects they were recreating, it was just more effective to use that energy if it was given shape. Kind of like it's more efficient to have a sword instead of a rod of metal, while technically a sword is also just a rod of metal. But the power of a construct cannot exceed the raw power of the energy it's made of. So it's kind of like making a robot in a shape of Superman: it will look like Superman, but will not gain Superman's strength and durability, because Superman gets it from his specific biology, which is impossible to recreate as a construct. Or if a Lantern would create a construct in the shape on Zatara, he would not be able to cast magic because it is either a very specific skill or a gift. Something like a minigun works because it's easier to imagine a minigun bullet being shot and therefore gaining necessary speed and destructive force rather than imagining a separate piece of metal that suddenly pops out into existence and accelerates to supersonic speed. So yes, you could create the wackiest of stuff, but it would be like creating cardboard cutouts of that stuff, just out of a very durable piece of cardboard.
You need to have the will to be worthy of one for that. Even Green Arrow can barely get one to work, henchman number 5 isn't getting it off especially off of Hal
@@MidnightPhantomit actually doesn't ironically. He makes whatever he is most comfortable with as most Lanterns do. Sinestro told him make things that mean something to you, not things that look cool or are simple. Hal is a test pilot, he served in the airforce, he flew with his dad, planes are a big part of his life. And as for the guns, he was in the military what do you expect him to think of as a weapon? John does the same thing
@@MidnightPhantom no he doesn't. First off Hal is effective and efficient. Second Hal is constantly making mechs and the like. Third name 2 Lanterns other than Kyle who are creative. Fourth again PLANES MEAN SOMETHING TO HIM, they make him feel closer to his father, which strengthens his will. Of course he would make what literally makes him stronger. Fifth all Lanterns make what they are most comfortable with. John makes rifles because he was a sniper and buildings and construction equipment because he is an architect, Simon makes cars because he is a mechanic, Guy makes boxing gloves and practically nothing else because he is just a bruiser

That would've so much better lol
Not one but 2 towers

Like two kids playing with action figures
Children are notoriously more creative than Hal Jordan.
Hal just needs to watch over the top anime in order to get his imagination up. Watching Gurren Lagann will get his imagination going into overdrive.

the peakest peak to ever grace PEAK dc gaming history
lantern battles are a battle of wits or a light based game of RPS

Maybe it because yellow Hal uses fear and he had no fear to use to transform into something else.
And then violet lantern Hal jumped in front of yellow lantern Hal and tried to stop green lantern Hal’s with his giant ass.
