Dear Guy Ritchie, please consider Michael K. Williams, or possibly Bruce Dern.

Sometimes I think I'm too hard on Rucka because he SO OFTEN comes SO CLOSE to doing stuff I really like, and has obviously read/watched a lot of the same movies/books I have, and really, what comic book writer DOESN'T write the same shit over and over again? I did like Whiteout pretty okay, even bought the sequel (haven't read yet), so I will probs go see the movie or possibly rent it.

Wait, Whiteout is the Rucka book? I'll be damned, I thought it was some horrorshow thing a'la the Thing. Funny, my first thought was "RUCKA?" and then I went "oh no, there's horror strings and people disappearing, can't be".

That is awful. I am sorry. Help it up. That is mean. (forksclovetofu), Saturday, 5 September 2009 06:18 (fifteen years ago)

the only horror is Antarctica, unless Hollywood threw some monsters in to compensate for lopsided parka-to-bikini ratio.

If you were making the movie in the early 90s, I'd have to cast Bruce Campbell as LOBO.

Campbell's a little too, I dunno, couth/self-aware/smarmy (which all generally work for him), that'd be like, I dunno Van Wilder as Green Lantern.

six months pass...

The best part of Fantastic Four movies is now the second best part of the Avengers movie.

Well, because whatever happened changed him. (Dr. Superman), Friday, 2 April 2010 19:24 (fifteen years ago)

okay that is very good casting lookwise

HI DERE, Thursday, 15 July 2010 15:07 (fourteen years ago)

I hate everything about it, but I'm irrationally oversensitive.

think it looks terrible too, and i don't give a shit abt green lantern

I swear to god the first time I saw that link, I thought it said Burt Reynolds.

The look is fine, but I have no interest in Ryan Reynolds and even less interest in seeing him play Green Lantern. The choice of Reynolds alone seems to suggest that the tone of the movie is going to be off.

Supes, have you no national pride?

Chuck_Tatum, Thursday, 15 July 2010 17:50 (fourteen years ago)

Wait, why is hair green?

Chuck_Tatum, Thursday, 15 July 2010 17:50 (fourteen years ago)

'Cause he's the Green Lantern. Dur.

I've heard some talk about the actual storyline that makes me think the costumes will be among the least-objectionable parts of the movie.

Matt M., Thursday, 15 July 2010 18:18 (fourteen years ago)

haha I am pretty sure the green hair is light flare from the ring

HI DERE, Thursday, 15 July 2010 18:32 (fourteen years ago)

He looks more like Kyle Rayner than Hal Jordan, but I guess it's Hal who will be in the movie? It'd be hella cool if Guy Gardner made an appearance, as he's the only one of the Earth lanterns who's actually an interesting character.

i think Mickey Rourke would make a kick-ass Lobo.

Mordy, Thursday, 15 July 2010 21:09 (fourteen years ago)

I want an Axe-Cop movie.

EZ Snappin, Thursday, 15 July 2010 21:10 (fourteen years ago)

Spike Jonze for that one plz.

Grisly Addams (WmC), Thursday, 15 July 2010 21:13 (fourteen years ago)

...maybe not, on 2nd thought.

Grisly Addams (WmC), Thursday, 15 July 2010 21:14 (fourteen years ago)

The Rock would have the right eyebrows and build to be Lobo.

I'm with Dr. Supes on this one.
For my money, almost all superhero casting (Downey being a good exception) should be unknowns.

i'm gonna need a +1 so me & a friend can kick you in the balls (forksclovetofu), Thursday, 15 July 2010 22:24 (fourteen years ago)

Ahhhh, now this looks like something I might actually see for non-self-hating reasons: http://bit.ly/ayz4Rr

Ah, the trailer for FRANKIE AND THE GOON, I know it well.

I miss the inklines.
