Green Lantern Animated series
 
Looks like we're getting a new Green Lantern Animated series (probably on Cartoon Network) in 2012!

Just in time to get kids up to speed so they can release the GL movie...maybe...or maybe not since IMDB has it slated for a 2011 release date. *shrugs* Could be fun.

An animated followup to the liveaction film, I presume? I'll gladly watch. I wonder if they'll ever get to the Parallax era of Hal's life... That'd be an interesting development.

Brodie 05-29-2010 08:57 AM

Rayner or bust.

Samhain 05-29-2010 09:02 AM

Hell yes. I will glady watch this.

Is Bruce Timm involved or not?

Agreed.

Ninjinister 05-29-2010 12:21 PM

I wonder how they'd handle a kid-friendly Blackest Night? I hope if that storyline comes to light, it's done respectfully enough to where it's not hideously dumbed-down.

If it's like Justice League and not Brave and the Bold I'd watch it. Hell I'd take the tone of the last 2 seasons of The Batman if I had to as well.

People at toonzone are saying it's gonna be CGI...

I think you and I see completely eye to eye on that. But you just know it's going to be Hal.

:sick: Not that I hate CGI (still), but I'm considerably less enthused if that's true.

I'd love for it to be Rayner too, but since it's the first ever GL series and hot on the heels of the live-action movie, Hal's surely gonna be the star. But, if they introduce his coworkers later on, maybe they can switch the focus to the team... or another GL entirely.

Andrew NDB 06-04-2010 12:58 AM

It's a foregone conclusion. The cartoon will be about Hal, and it'll be positioned as a quasi-continuation of the Ryan Reynolds movieverse.

ToTheNines 06-04-2010 03:13 PM

Ugh, I still can't believe they cast Reynolds for that role.

gobo 06-04-2010 05:11 PM

He'd make a more fitting Flash. That's for sure. Only time will tell if he can pull off an Air Force soldier well.

Raph's Girl 04-08-2011 07:01 PM

Josh Keaton (Peter Parker/Spider-Man in Spectacular Spider-Man) has been cast as Hal Jordan!

Also, plot:

Quote:

As Earth's Green Lantern, Hal Jordan is used to being in dangerous situations -- but he's never faced anything like this! Set at the farthest reaches of deep space, Hal must face down an invasion from the Red Lantern Corps. Hal is soon joined by an all-new group of heroes on a mission to protect Guardian Space -- and the Green Lantern Corps itself.
Now who's all eager for an animated series where the bad guys barf blood? :P But don't fret for the Red Lantern storyline will be dealt with in 13 eps, the next storyline deals with the Manhunters.

Last I heard it was CGI.

Red Lanterns? Sold.

No Rayner? Returned. Without a receipt.

Ninjinister 03-02-2013 11:01 PM

So now the show's about over. To be honest on the whole, I enjoyed it more than Young Justice (which I do still love), although that might be my GL bias shining through.

"Loss" is still a punch in the gut of an episode and "Cold Fury" proved to follow that up with a kick in the nuts. I have this sinking feeling that things aren't going to go well for everyone on the main cast in the end.

With the additional Lantern Corps and the recent reveal/appearance of a key player from that storyline, I can't help but feel like they were indeed building up to Blackest Night. The fact that this is seemingly where they may have been headed eventually, coupled with the fact that it's just damn good and even the "filler" episodes seem more meaty than most series, makes it hurt that this'll be gone in two episodes.
