Green Lantern!

Posted on May 26th, 2009 by Rubix.

So there have been many rumors about a pending Green Lantern Movie. With all

the superhero movies this is a classic character that I think everyone knows. Along

the rumor route it’s been said that Common is expected to play Green Lantern John

Stewart in an up-coming Justice League movie. As with all things rumor related the

actual GL movie has been pushed back at least two years!? Thankfully GL has a very

dedicated fan base who needless to have vivid imaginations! So in my quest to get a

idea of when, where and why GL is suspended I stumble upon this!

A great fan clip compiled from different movies and Tv shows to give vision to GL. I

figured here in the Froverse there’s a GL fan somewhere, so here you go!
