Samuringa posted:Mate, I know we're all very euphoric over how good Ragnarok was, but let's not forget how utterly mediocre Thor 1 & 2 were. They're the bottom of the barrel of the MCU. I'd disagree with Thor 1 being one of the worst. I haven't seen it in a long while, but I remember it having a lot of stuff I liked (the scene with Hawkeye, the bit where Thor and the professor get drunk, actually any of Thor's fish-out-of-water stuff, anything with Kat Denning's character, and the destroyer fight was pretty good.) Iron Man 2 was pretty drat bad and totally wasted Sam Rockwell.

BiggerBoat posted:I'm really curious to see what tone they take with Shazam. There's a ton of incredibly campy and goofy poo poo in the comics that will be really hard to play straight. If they frame it as a child's power fantasy with a few crazy elements - like a tiger that can sort of speak and a worm that can kind of think - I can see them pulling it off. Shazam director tweeted this recently. (Along with other classic Captain Marvel stuff and one really weird comic featuring him.)

Maybe he’s Hercules? It’s no Black Heimdall but watching nerds lose their poo poo would still be great. He’s got the biceps for it too.

It always looked like he was going to do the thing from the TV show and throw a lightning bolt. Since he wasn't, it looked seriously goofy. There's no reason to throw your hands out like that when you're running. Rand Brittain posted:Honestly, the real problem with Green Lantern for me is how so many of his stories climax with him willpowering harder until the problem is solved. A lot of movies in-general are that way, especially superheroes. How many times has Hulk or Wolverine ended a story by just getting angrier?

Saying Green Lantern is too hard to film because of his powers is loving ridiculous. The movie can make his power level whatever the gently caress they say it is and part of the charm would be Jon, Kyle, Hal or Guy figuring out his limits or lack thereof based on their individual imaginations; similar to Dr. Strange. It's basically "Intergalactic Space Cops" with a heavy emphasis on green and an aversion to yellow. Also dudes can fly for 24 hours. It's no trickier than Thor, Hulk, Wonder Woman, Flash or Superman if you do it right. Ragnarok, Dr. Strange and GOTG seemed to manage it OK. People here are saying Shazam, which has a talking tiger and a genius mind controlling worm is easy to translate but GL is too tough. Just take Green Lantern and pretend there's no limits. I think it'd be fun.

I think Red Lanterns would be a good choice for villains because they're more than just RAGE ARRR *blood everywhere* as it comes from grief, not hatred or anger. It makes them more than 2 dimentional, plus there's a whole bunch of them, crazy monster guy, babe with skeletal wings, scrotrum guy, human, and cat. If we're fantasy casting, I was thinking Halson Sage from The Orville would make a good Kate Bishop, if they ever do something based on Young Avengers. Seriously, why isn't that movie in development?

Green Lantern feels like it's become too reliant on fighting all the other colors of the rainbow. The character went on for years and years and years just fine without being all about the other colored Lantern corps, but now it's like that's all anyone wants to write about. He has tons of other perfectly good villains, I'd like to see one of those as the villains of a movie before we deal with Red, Yellow, whatever Lanterns.

I was going to say they should make Hal the villain, but the Ryan Reynolds movie already hosed up Parallax. They really ought to do a Kyle/John buddy cop flick. Have John’s serious attitude and architectural constructs clash with Kyle’s looser personality and artistic constructs. Have them fight the Red Lanterns or Larfleeze or something.

Sorry, I just really love the different corps.

Forget Hal, make it a John/Kyle space buddy cop flick. Make John the serious veteran who sticks with basic light constructs because it does the job, and Kyle the starry-eyed rookie who uses the ring to make Transformers or Gundams or Kaiju because he's a huge dork. The Red Lanterns are a great pick for villains, and maybe throw Lobo in as a wild card. And the post-credits stinger is Hal Jordan flying into a billboard.
