      WB cares about profit. Thats how business operates. Those "other characters" did not bring in the revenue Batman did. Even when there were attempts to give Green Lantern his own show, movie, and even comics.
      Sales, revenue, and overall customer count is relatively low. There are simply keyboard warriors demanding more of it, but real world sales are abysmal.

    The Green Lantern corps is the most underrated and underutilized storylines in DC. You can easily make them into a Sci fi Video game, you can have them in a movie series, we can see the Sinestro core war, Black Lanterns, we also have four main characters plus aliens to follow. Make this series happen. At this point I don't care if its Hal Jordan, John Stewart, I want Kyle Rayner. Make Green Lantern happen.

    Learning about the entities of each emotion, the Guardians of Oa, the other various Lantern Corps, etc. are what make the Green Lantern mythos so fascinating and bountiful with storytelling potential.
    Atrocitus and Dex-Starr's individual stories alone are compelling enough to be explored on the big screen.

When my Chihuahua pooped on the floor, I stuck his nose in it, and he realizes 'oh, I'm not supposed to poop EVER.'"
    When DC made Batman and Robin and that failed, they thought "Oh, we're not supposed to make a Batman movie THIS WAY." When DC made Ryan Reynolds' Green Lantern, they thought "Oh, we're not supposed to make a Green Lantern movie EVER." Green Lantern is Warner Bros' Chihuahua.

      I agree entirely Green Lantern's Rogues Gallery is incredibly underrated, and some of the villains, if written well and given true passion and understanding, could all be incredibly deep and interesting antagonists for a live-action collection of Green Lantern movies, for example:
      - Sinestro - a former Green Lantern who was a cherished member and great role model who fell down a dark path of no longer wanting to see the universe suffer under the hypocrisy of the Guardians and understanding how unjust they truly are, leading him to have a warped perception of what true justice should be achieved by, losing faith in the power of will and saw the horror and chaos of criminals and warlords seeking to use fear as a method to achieve so-called "peace" and betraying the friends and family he has grown to care for but still believe what he's doing is right.
      - Larfleeze - a being powered by his own greed and hubris for an undying thirst for everything he can possess)
      - Krona - a former Guardian who was shunned by his brothers and sisters for seeking to understand the universe, and his ambition to know the origin of the universe drove him to madness and cruel exile
      - The Manhunters are soul-less emotionless machines acting as the antithesis to the Emotional Spectrum and wish to kill emotions as part of a twisted programme to prevent war and crimes as they believe emotions drive us to create chaos
      - Atrocitus and the Red Lanterns - victims of genocide and a massacre covered up by the Guardians and rightfully seek vengeance for all the lives and world wiped out by the Manhunters, which can make them good sympathetic villains driven by loss, sadness and pure rage
      - Black Hand and Nekron - beings embodying the end of everything where emotion and life mean nothing and all that is left is the cold shiver of death as an inescapable fate and abyss that comes for all of us

    Its so weird how DC just fucked so up badly with animated at around after 2013 since before that Green Lantern stuff had a really strong showing in animated stuff. With DCAU being such a good characterization of their John Stewart, that he became popular enough to add things to comics cannon, like introducing him being a Marine Soldier to his cannon considering before he was just a architect in his original run. Or the the film Green Lantern: First Flight which really is a good intro to the mythos of the green lanterns, while also showing a decent characterization Hal Jordan along with a really good Sinestro. And finally Green Lantern: The Animated Series which a great show cancelled way to early for its time that showed the best of Green Lantern stuff and my boy Kilowog being front in center with main cast and just some throw way character like the Live action film along with new original characters like Aya and Razer. Hopefully the new Live action show bring much needed respect the material considering the green Lantern world on it's own separate from DC has a ton of interesting stuff attached to it with the Lantern Cores and Backstory of the Guardians of the Universe.

    In the past, it was a legit debate who was more powerful Green Lantern or superman.
    And Green Lantern use to be able to hold his own against superman and every other superhero.
    Now, the so called most powerful weapon in the universe, a Green Lantern ring, is constantly beaten by virtually every one and is nothing to fear. No one should be able to have a chance against even two Green lanterns let alone all of them.
    There are too many Green lanterns and they are constantly being beaten in fights.

    The Green Lantern ( Hal Jordan, specifically) IS my favorite superhero. When every one wanted to pretend to be Spiderman or Superman or Wolverine or a Hulkamaniac- I wanted to be Green Lantern ...and the guy from The Greatest American Hero (-without the broccoli hair, tho).
    When I was a kid I really wanted to believe that if you were courageous and brave enough, a ring would come fly out of the sky and choose you... And make you a Jedi...!
    I love Green Lantern Comics, because they were in space, and had all kinds of different aliens and different planets. I wanted to live out those adventures. I wanted to go out in space and see all that shit. I loved the Green Lantern Animated Series, which I keep re-watching to this day!
    Lastly, I'll say this, and this may be the fan boy in me talkin' but, even if the movie wasn't that good, I still went crazy for it. -I love it, and I was so excited that Ryan Reynolds played Hal Jordan.

      Literally the big defining draw out of lots of awesome draws is that Lanterns literally use their own imagination as a weapon. Lanterns, in addition to standard constructs learned from their training in Oa often use constructs based on their own personal experiences, preferences, and etc. IE, their own creativity. And the constructs that are the most creative/personalized are often the most effective and the ones that get memed on and beat the big bad in the end. Not having a custom construct creator for the player to experience this selling point of the lanterns would be criminal. Even a limited one where you need some form of XP or in-game currency to unlock all features would be better than nothing, and it's not that hard. If you can make a character creation system, then you can make a construct creation system that don't require the same level of meshes or details, just basic geometry modeling at its core.

      Again, the only difference between a construct creation system and a character creation system are the levels of meshing and textures. Literally all you have to do is take an already existing character creation system, put a green lighting filter over everything so that the objects look like hard light, and let people model their construct. If your game allows for simple geometry, you can achieve a construct creation system.

    this is exactly what i've been saying for the past 10+ years. I've gotten so damn tired with DC and how they treat Green Lantern and its fans. They continuously and relentlessly disrespected the characters, the stories and the potential for its lore. Here's a list of what little we got in the past 13 years.
    -Green Lantern: The Animated Series, the last great piece of Green Lantern media outside the comics
    -The GL 2011 movie, which started all this mess.
    -A Green Lantern Corps movie which was originally announced in 2014, then canned.
    -A Green Lantern show described as "Lethal Weapon in Space", which was canned along with the rest of the DCEU.
    -an unnanamed alien Lantern in Josstice League, on screen for a grand total of 5 seconds, who gets promptly killed.
    -Apart from a speech about Lanterns and Kryptonians in ZSJL, its plans for John and Hal in the Snyderverse, canned.
    -The endless barrage of John Diggle/Stewart teases from the Arrowverse, especially since the Arrow finale onwards.
    -The blink-and-you-miss-it frame in which a flight jacket with the name "Jordan" appears in an Arrow flashback
    -how they used Deathstorm on The Flash
    -we saw Coast City a few times i guess, most notably in the Flash pilot
    -The one and only animated film about Green Lantern in the new (post reboot) DCAMU, which was forgettable at best.
    -brief teases and mentions of Alan Scott and a couple episodes with Jenny on Stargirl after so much fan request.
    -a brief appearance of Razer as a hybrid lantern in Young Justice (which is probably the most amount of respect we ever got as fans since the animated show)
    -Jessica Cruz in......DC Superhero Girls....lord have mercy
    -2 Lantern-themed DLC for DCUO (which is great, if you like mindlessly grindy, moneygrabbing, Pay2Play MMOs)
    -John Stewart in Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League........😫😫😫
    -Hal, Sinestro and Atrocitus in Injustice and its sequel (which were admittedly awesome but lasted a couple minutes at best).
    -a few appearances here and there in other animated movies.
    I probably forgot some but you can see how all this paints a clear picture of continuous disrespect. Green Lantern is a founding member of the Justice League, he has some of the biggest ever lore in comics, enough to sustain its own franchise and it has a huge fanbase of ever-increasingly tired and dissatisfied fans. All it took was one mid movie to make DC think "no one cares about Green Lantern".
    I already don't have a lot of hope for this Lanterns show. When they pitched it, they described how it's a "land-based buddy-cop adventure" and i'm here like: "if this is gonna be primarily Earth-based, then why in the world would you need the Green Lanterns for it? Literally anyone else would work the same". Like, you have an entire family of characters who have entire galaxies to protect and travel through in the blink of an eye....and you stick 'em on Earth? WHY????

I'm not surprised by it though, cause those at home movies were made to prop up Batman and Damian with fanfiction level bias. There's a reason that Hal Jordan doesn't bust out all of his cool constructs, but instead is a joking laser beam.

He's supposed to be the charisma king of Don't Give Fs About Fear as if it was a true OP anime MC. The guy came back to life from death just because he has a score to settle with the new gods and shaped entire realities to his will to bring everyone back to life even without ever becoming a White Lantern. Barry and Hal are the living incarnations of time and space in the DC universe and I'd like to FINALLY see a proper adaptation from someone who actually cares enough to read all the comics like an actual fan to do justice to the JUSTICE League of America!

    It just makes me upset because for some people, DC just isn't for them because Batman isn't for them. Like, imagine a world where every mainstream Marvel media only focused on Spider-Man since he was the only comic book character people cared about? That's what it sometimes feels like as a DC fan.
    Green Lantern was the first DC superhero that actually appealed to me during a time where I thought all DC superheroes were boring. (I had tried to read Frank Miller's Batman since people told me it was the best and came out of it thinking that all DC comics sucked. The Zack Synder DC movies also didn't help with that perception). Actually, I was really into sci-fi at the time, so I'm pretty sure that helped make Green Lantern an instant favorite for me. It also helped that Green Lantern: Blackest Night was a generally good Green Lantern story.
    I feel like there's a lot of potential in a TV show or movie that actually properly utilizes the Green Lantern mythos and characters, but sadly it seems like that won't happen for a long time. And even if it does happen, I wonder if even audiences will give it a chance due to the tarnished reputation Green Lantern has had on the mainstream since that one movie.

    Yes they do.
    Pre crisis, GL was a casually omnipotent character. He's beaten all manner of superman level and cosmic beings beyond superman.
    In the past 15 years especially, GL has been minimized and marginalized.
    His constructs shatter like sugar glass.
    They forget his ring can do anything, but they limit him to fragile constructs and a few beams.
    They conveniently limit his power. It's way down from before.
    They allow him to be beaten like a 3rd rate street punk.
    Now he couldn't even be a serious threat if he was a supervillain.
    His once "most powerful weapon in the universe" has often no effect on the same level characters he used to beat.
    He is quickly taken out/omitted from DCAU
    When they give a different character a GL ring, they make that character equally or more powerful than experienced top lanterns like Stewart or Jordan
    They can't decide if the ring ONLY works for who it chose, or any random character.
    You'd never know this character was ever a heavy hitter.

    DCAMU could’ve solved its Flash and GL problem with a buddy cop movie. Barry and Hal have that vibe in the comics and they have a really great friendship.

      They payed for a Guardians of the Galaxy movie. Guardians of the Galaxy, the biggest group of nobodies in Marvel to the point that even the Great Lake Avengers were more known and that even comic readers forgot they existed.
      Hell, they paid for a second Suicide Squad Movie after the first one was a dumpster fire of bad ideas, so maing another Green Lantern project is far from impossible. It's not the characters fault that the higher ups at companies all suck at their job

    Green Lantern, Shazam and Aquaman suffer from same problem in DC, being sidelined in favor of DC Trinity and Flash, as if they can't be part of The Seven, while shoehorning Cyborg, Hawkgirl in there, beech Cyborg is part of Teen Titans, and how come Hawkgirl is better than Hawkman?

    With John Diggle...
    His step father's last name is Stewart.
    That version of John kept his original last name.
    So he is that universes John Stewart.
    But as you mentioned, CW fcked it up, and the ring I guess shut down or something.

    It's funny to think that in part due to the 2011 movie, but also in part maybe too high concept, he wasn't in the 2017 Justice League movie. And not really being part of the DCEU may helped it with it working into the DCU. Like while Superman and Batman have to really work to compare to snyder version, and hardly any word on Wonder woman, Aquaman, or Flash; here little ol Green Lantern here. Heck make it two of them, make them buddy cop in a show (hope things turn out well, GL's have so much potential)

      I think green lantern has a chance in the dcu because I'm suspecting batman and superman to appear in the new dcu i have no clue what the dcu directions for characters like wonder women cyborg Shazam Aquaman and indefinitely the flash ( due to bad taste from Ezra Miller drama which is fresh too many ) also I want a good green lantern anything because at this point green lantern is the new aquaman short of treatment the new punching bag which im just tired of because I love green lantern and all it character yet ever since 2011 they keep disrespecting Green Lantern every time which is just sad at this point

    Green Lantern movies have the highest potential if done correctly. Because when you get down to it, they’re space cops.
    All that is needed is a bit of detective noir set in space and primarily use alien species that designs are closer to humans. (Save on CGI and prosthetic designs, the less CGI the better story & visual cohesion.)

I get it, some moments of levity are needed and someone needs to get slapped around so that villians feel threatening, but COME ON. Poor GL got clapped by everything and everyone.

    DC has this habit to ignore anything that once gone wrong. Green lantern movie wasn't great? We pretend it never happened. Suicide Squad was a MTV clip? We will not work to redeem characters like Joker, HQ etc, we just never talk about it, let's make movie with another guy named Joker so everyone forgets about previous one.
    DC never fix problems, they just close their eyes and hope that no one will remember

    I really want a green lantern verse sitting as a side piece to D.C. It’s effectively its own verse by itself that crosses over with main continuity by way of following the lanterns on Earth. But I want to see each lantern introduced one movie at a time, so first Hal, then Guy, then John, then Kyle..
    Because you need to see what happens to Hal, Guy and John to understand why Kyle is different and operates under different circumstances.
    Alan Scott can be the mentor who stayed in the shadows, and over several films we can see how Hal is overcome by Parallax…. It it will take several movies to tell that story.

    7:52 whoever wrote this was probably an extreme racist I don’t care if they were writing for a black character they just do not know how to write without putting some weirdo identity politics into it and that’s not even going as far as to say the rivalry was stupid yes a street level gunslinger has a rivalry with a superman level for right powering wielder who can basically go toe to toe with the justice league on equal terms meanwhile you expect me to believe it this gunslinger should just be I don’t no have some sort of beef with a guy who actually put him in jail more times than he did kill like black dead shot should have more beef with Batman if anybody but what the hell did John Stewart do to black dead shot?

    I don't that much about Green Lantern (or any lantern) but I heard and saw that he has powers built on imagination, something that is unstoppable and the writers don't even think of how overpowered he is. Just like speedsters, they lose by lazy writing and untapped potential that they don't think hard enough on.

    • @suscrow661
      @suscrow661 9 місяців тому +2

      I don't think lanterns have the same arguments aince they have moral codes and their own traits and imagination to limit themselves naturally with a ring and how much of an emotion or will they have, and the constructs the individual lantern prefers and usually uses. Hal jordan won't use or have the exact same ideas in your head and more in his own, especially when fighting at first.
      Ok, so i just reread your comment and you're right, they won't think about this, and if they do they'll cancel whatever it is for a tax writeoff
