Turtle Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 (edited) I'm hoping that is some sort of, I don't know, thing he doesn't wear most of the time. The GL uniform is a great and iconic in its simplicity. IF it needed to be altered for film, this is not the direction it should have gone. On the other hand, Hector Hammond looks pretty spot-on.

Punisher Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 Yeah, I hope that isn't his main costume. While I'm ok with the flowing lantern energy or whatever it is, the fact that he doesn't have gloves makes him look more like Green MAN than Green LANTERN: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deadpool Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 I thought we were better than this. Feels like a HUGE step backwards after Iron Man, Hulk, etc... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trekker 42 Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 The costume is completely digital which may tell you something. The real one is on the cover of Enttertainment Weekly, pictured Here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBT! Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 All that costume needs is some big shoulder pads and a cape and it's Hal as parallax, rather than a green lantern? T. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MINI_MYTE Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 (edited) It looks cool and weird at the same time. It looks as if the suit is all muscle sinew. I'm digging the way the mask turned out. Finally a hero's mask that gives the effect of white (err.. whiteish) eyeballs. Now let's see what Kilowog will look like.

karamazov80 Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 I definitely see Parallax because of the mask shape and the hair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karamazov80 Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 The 90s were a dark, dark time for comics. And the GL in that pic is Schumacher-esque to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trekker 42 Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 I'll say that I like this costume. I have no prior Green Lantern experience however so really that does not say much. And Parallax features in this movie so maybe there's a connetion between him and the costume? I dunno... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrobotC Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 Yeah, I hope that isn't his main costume.

I dont know how i really feel about that suit,maybe ill change my mind once i see a full body shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiniFiend UK Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 At first glance I'm not impressed. Looks more like Venom symboite then a GL costume. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neolego Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 At first glance I'm not impressed. Looks more like Venom symboite then a GL costume. I will say that I'm never a fan of bashing things before I see them. As is the case with almost anything. We have an idea of how "WE" see something (the suit in this case) and let's be honest, it will almost NEVER be what we expected to see......unless we are the designers. That being said, I can say 100% that my first impression of the GL suit is not good. I do not like the idea behind the suit and think they have lost the idea of a uniform. MiniFiend is spot on, the very first thing I said is, "Wha!?!, that looks like Green Venom...." The idea of the suit is that he is part of a "Corps", so he is basically a soldier. And while each GL in the comics have their own style, when they stand together you know exactly who they are. This feels more organic and less like a uniform and I don't like that. HOWEVER, being subjective as I like to be, I can see the potential the story based on the costume alone. First, the GL Corps are basically alien, so we get that feel right away. Plus, they could push the idea that the Ring, for lack of a better description, "bonds" with the bearer. In this case, the Ring "chooses" it's wearer, and in turn basically becomes part of their being. If they go that route I can easily see the suit being explained as an Organic extenstion of Hal. I guess, my fear is that he will just follow the comics and become a member of the GL Corps, yet he will wear an organic looking costume that is never explained. At the end of the day though, if it's a good movie, I don't care if he wears a green trash bag! On a final note, how amazing would it be for Toby to have a guest spot just to quote....."I guess Green is the new Black!" neo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goober Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 You all remind me of movie critics from a few years back who were absolutely convinced Daniel Craig would make a horrible James Bond. Therefore, I'm not going to make any judgments until I SEE the movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 I never thought Craig would make a bad Bond. Nor did I think Ledger would make a bad Joker. But Van Wilder as Hal Jordan? I just don't know. I have seen him in several movies, and I think Deadpool would suit him much better. That picture is not helping. I still think this could be an enjoyable picture, but I don't see Reynolds as any Hal Jordan I am familiar with, and I don't see how that outfit won't look ridiculous on the screen.

Trekker 42 Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 Of course it's possible everyone in the Corps wears the same damn suit... Possible. Might be tailored different by species. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 Based on the concept art, they look similar, but different. http://liveforfilms.wordpress.com/2010/01/...-the-guardians/ http://liveforfilms.wordpress.com/2010/01/...u-lousy-poozer/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turtle Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 (edited) The concept art looks good. The outfit shown looks like it went too far in the wrong direction. These other pics do more for me. I think Ryan Reynolds works as Hal. Edited July 16, 2010 by Turtle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
