But, yeah, the cheese, it was definitely served green :DSophie Duncanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14768033409563305140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3469021061129080712.post-38797734989803860952012-01-15T15:44:01.067+00:002012-01-15T15:44:01.067+00:00This comment has been removed by the author.Sophie Duncanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14768033409563305140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3469021061129080712.post-1806554095249963142012-01-15T12:38:39.728+00:002012-01-15T12:38:39.728+00:00I didn't think it was a bad movie.

However, the whole story line with the big brained guy could have been cut in order to incorporate a kickass training segment.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3469021061129080712.post-1668573430292637282012-01-15T11:13:01.329+00:002012-01-15T11:13:01.329+00:00This comment has been removed by the author.Sophie Duncanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14768033409563305140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3469021061129080712.post-5035835399025034592012-01-15T10:42:47.825+00:002012-01-15T10:42:47.825+00:00I have to agree with this: it was a well done movi...I have to agree with this: it was a well done movie and always entertaining. I think the problem is the source material - as a hero, he's too imperfect. Something about Superman being the way he is works. Batman, without powers, is what everyone wants a hero to be. Green Lantern uses alien technology that resembles magic and, in some versions, can't affect anything yellow. With all that in mind, I really enjoyed the adaptation.<br /><br />Also, despite how bad some of the lines were, I really liked how cheesy it was at times! :DPaul Carrollhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04498209913967406314noreply@blogger.com
