Hal is so dead.

>>149449284 (OP)
Tom Kings writing the script. What were you expecting?

>>149449284 (OP)
i thought hal and guy where in this?

>>149449284 (OP)

>>149449297
He is? We're cooked.

>>149449303
To help John. Since he is too unpopular to carry the series on his own.

giga nigga who fucks alien bird girls > white guy

>>149449284 (OP)
Will they continue with BOP and give John all of Kyle's stories?
>>149449303
They are, but Hal is played by a way older actor, so most people are guessing he's gonna die/become Parallax.

>well maybe in that new Lanterns show Hal can- John Stewart is the lead, cast as the young handsome protagonist, while Hal Jordan is cast as a 60 year old who will surely die by the end of the show

put this character out of his misery lmao

>>149449284 (OP)
I don't understand, I though with the president being a pedo it was finally Hal's time to shine

>CIA MAN BAD
fuck off, all of you
King wrote the Darkseid War GL one-shot
it was awesome

All I really need to be content with DCU John Stewart adaptation is to see him use his ring constructs in ways that remind you he's both an engineer/architect and a marine. I especially want to see him use his ring to temporarily replace missing parts of a machine, I just think it would be really cool.

>>149449435
The cartoon merch didn't sell because it was the usually boy-oriented superhero cartoon stuff, but it was actually most popular with girls and they didn't know how to capitalize on that. That's what I was told, anyway.

>>149449366
I knew from the moment they choose an older actor for Hal that he was just there to launch John who can't do it on his own. That's how much of failure character he is.

>>149449587
Don't know, anon. Maybe this time it work for John after the gazillion chances they have giving him.

>>149449587
Beware my Power already tried to make the 'John GL movie' and immediately ran into John being too boring and not having any MC level stories, so he just mooched off Kyle and Hal.
People really overrate the amount of attention John's DCAU nostalgia actually generates.

>>149449614
He wasn't even among the most popular characters in that series.

>>149449583
Reportedly it was dragged down by the movie bombing.


>From what I’ve heard the performance of the [Green Lantern] movie made it so there was a lot of movie toys still in stores. And so the stores didn’t necessarily differentiate between one being movie toys and others being animated series toys. They just said, ‘Green Lantern? We already have those.’ And so because of that, a toyline wasn’t even made.


That said if GL toys are more popular with girls it would be hilarious if that makes Jessica Cruz's upcoming show in the MAWS universe a hit, and Hal drops another rank amongst known Green Lanterns.

>>149449687
>and Hal drops another rank amongst known Green Lanterns
How many decades you spent hoping this? And yet Hal is there.

>>149449710
>hoping
I don't care, the only GL I like is Guy because of JLI. the rest of them are all boring self-insert characters. it's just funny

>>149449687
Jessica would just push Kyle down to fifth fully.
Hal still has all his appearances in the DCAMU/SHG and his own show+minor roles in two Batman cartoons.

>>149449710
It will happen anytime now!!

>>149449733
>Hal
>self-insert
Come on, now.

And DC spent decades trying to replace him and they always end up returning to him eventually. GL is all about Hal to begin with.

>>149449435
>now a bunch of millennials/late Gen Z know GL as "the black dude"

Hal got his chance once. It's not Ryan Reynolds' fault the movie was a complete dud.

I don’t know how they always screw up Hal Jordan. Back in 2013 you could’ve had Tom Cruise, or someone Tom Cruise adjacent, play Hal, adapt his pilot origin faithfully, give him a practical suit like in MoS, give Hal a hot love interest like Lauren Cohen, and have him save the day on earth. Don’t go full CGI shitfest in the first one. Make Hal a red blooded American, proud to serve his country like Michael Bay protagonists usually are, and release it near 4th of July. It would’ve been a hit

>>149449992
Tom Cruise can't do any capeshit because he refuses to let his likeness be used for merch so that's an obvious nonstarter for heroes.

>>149449992
>proud to serve his country like Michael Bay protagonists usually are
Why not just ask Michael Bay to direct it, then?

>Don’t go full CGI shitfest
It's 2013. Movies were already headed in that direction.

>>149449284 (OP)
>>149449992
I've begun to notice a trend.
Hal, Flash Gordon, Luke Skywalker, Captain Marvel, Starlord, Adam Strange, Nova, now Warlock and Silver Surfer...
all either majorly character assassinated into air head jocks or brutally and jarringly turned psychopathic heel and promptly killed off or just plain killed off.
What does the industry have against space heroes?

>>149449992
They aren't screwing him, they are just so desperate to push another GL that isn't him for some reason.

And don't use the movie as an excuse. It's a decade and half old and hardly the first cape movie to fail.

>>149450254
>for some reason
There's an obvious reason, because John is a black dude so he fills any diversity issues, and nobody outside of comic autists (half of who will probably watch anyway) gives a shit about which GL they use (I doubt most normies even know there's different ones), so they just use the black dude because it's technically not a raceswap, and most people don't care enough about Hal Jordan to throw a fit like if they used Luke Fox Batman instead of Bruce Wayne or some shit.

I hope they add Jessica later

>>149450308
Pushing other GLs didn't work. They don't even work in comics so they barely have any stories to use in a TV show or a movie.

If they want a black GL to fill the quota, then it's a proof that they don't care about pushing GL as independent franchise.

>>149450336
she's getting her own cartoon
