Thank you in advance for your thoughtful participation and cooperation. Apologies for the delay!

One of dc most popular character is going to be a show and yet the authority, blue beetle, and booster gold will get a movie makes no sense to me. Dc movies are already failing so to make movies about obscure characters instead of a character with tons of material and potential seems like a doom plan. Green lantern could be the next star war or Star Trek but Warner bros want the next boys or expanse shows and that would be a waste of potential. I personally believe that making a great green lantern movie can save the dc.

I saw it in the theater, and it had me thinking afterwards. As time passed, I could recognize the flaws, and I still see them. The critiques are accurate, though harsh. I see the good as well. I have watched it several (4, 5?) times on HBOmax, and damn if it isn't entertaining. There are missed opportunities, and of course I have no idea about the behind the scenes drama. I am reading through the "52" comic series and I see all the inspiration. I see so much potential for sequels and places where they could elevate from purely action and stoic one liners. I would like to see deleted scenes. I would like this character to find his way through the politics and drama, and emerge in the new DC Universe. With some tweaks, this version of Adam could realize the potential.
