Campbell made me think Bruce Campbell. Don't deny that he would be the greatest Hal Jordan imaginable. =P

Bruce would be the greatest EVERYTHING imaginable.....he would have been the PERFECT Platicman, but he's gotten a bit too old these days.

Heck, Plasticman (if done right) would be 90% CGI anyway... why not Bruce Campbell?  Put his face in CGI and use his voice.

The Hitman

I always Weird Al would make a great Plastic Man. Cal me crazy, but Weird Al looks and acts like the character, to me anyways.

Gremlin

I like Weird Al, but I think Campbell brings more theatricality. Yancovic doesn't really work well on camera--UHF? It was funny and weird but he wasn't as good an actor as he is a musical comedian.

I agree.

Though honestly I would watch Bruce Campbell's talking brain in a jar if it remained as entertaining as I've found him throughout his career.

Brain Jar Romance starring Renee Zelwoggar (I'm not even trying to spell her name) opposite Bruce Campbell. I'm not sure she does anything other than romantic comedies anyways.

I think the writer got some spittle on my computer screen.  It does sound very cool.  But it's a very long road from screenplay to screen . . .

Green Lantern script 1st draft
Well I don't particularly want to ruin the movie plot for myself. But I read the beginning, and short of some cheezy dialogue, it's pretty good!
I apologize in advance for everything I say on here. I regret it immediately after clicking post.

The_Baroness

Read through it and aside from some dialog its a good story...

Failed_Hero

I agree with baroness, the dialogue could use some cleaning up, but I was fairly impressed with scope of the story.
At the end of the day all that matter is that I tried, right?

LOL!...Okay, from now on, I'm going to only think of a certain actress as Zelwoggar the Terrible.

Dana

Mr. Hamrick

Renee does have a horror flick coming out called "Case 39" later this year.

and with regards to this script, it IS a first draft.  The dialog is likely to be tweaked in future drafts and, depending on who is cast, ad libbed on set.




House Quake

I think Reynolds is an excellent choice.

UnfluffyBunny

I concur, tho hopefully there will still be time for a deadpool movie >_>

Uncle Yuan

I'm not seeing it, myself.  I don' hate it, just kind of "meh."

The Hitman

This just hit me... Murs has gotta be pumped about this! I mean, this means Deadpool IS Green Lantern!!

Not bad, still think that David Borreanaz would be the best Hal Jordan. Reynolds would make an excellent Wally West, but I guess it could`ve been much worse.

BentonGrey

WHAT!?  All of the names they've been bandying about sounded pretty good to me, but how in the world did they end up with him?!  Reynolds is a semi-decent actor and everything, but he doesn't strike me as anywhere close to the right kind of actor to play Hal.

Yeah, I have to agree. David is the better choice.
