The man has built an entire career on both being a cowboy and a loose cannon cop on the edge and you choose the latest of his movies to reference?
Do better.
As old Bruce Wayne, he wins an orangutan in an F-1 race. the orangutan reminds him of his youth, so he shaves his moustache and redons his outfit, deputizing the orangutan as his new robin. then together they fight off a nazi-joker-biker gang that alfred, old, and rude keeps cussing at from the wayne manor lawn.
"Right turn, Robin."
EDIT: Where's Ku Klux Faynor bitching about me changing not only Robin's skin-tone, but his species as well?
I keep getting the impression Nick is almost de-aging. He keeps getting younger looking from twenty years ago to Secret War to SI and now in Secret Warriors.
Well, he does have that formula in him (Infinity Formula? something like that) that is supposed to mess w/ his aging...
Right. But mine is more of a commentary on art style.
Though that would be funny, since Natalia has a version herself, for Cap to end up becoming a kid toucher.
Have you seen Secret Warriors? The dude looks older than ever, people were thinking the formula must be running out now that he's out of SHIELD.
Just to be more specific, my problem with Jackson as Fury is the fact that he's a fuckin' terrible actor. However, for some reason, the geeks and nerds and such of the world have such a fucking hardon for him that he keeps getting work. Keeps getting to play the same crappy "bad ass" character over and over.

yeah, seriously... what were they thinking casting the quintessential bad ass as Nick Fury.

He's a fine actor. Unfortunately, he is now payed to play SAM MOTHERFUCKING JACKSON! rather than actual characters.
I think one of the reasons we love Sam Jackson is that it's blatantly obvious that the guy enjoys what he does. He picks projects based on what sounds fun, he loves the characters he plays, and he uses his fame to get crazy-ass projects like Snakes on a Plane and Afro-Samurai rolling so he can have more fun doing them. And that enthusiasm shows in his work. Dude loves his job, and we love watching him do it.
He's Sam Mother-Fucking Jackson for a reason, and I can't think of anyone I'd rather have behind the eyepatch.

The fabric of intergalactic justice is threatened – until Hal Jordan arrives for his initial mission – in the animated Green Lantern: First Flight, the fifth entry in the popular DVD series of DC Universe Animated Original PG-13 Movies. A co-production of Warner Premiere, DC Comics and Warner Bros. Animation, the illuminated hero’s first-ever full-length animated film is set for release by Warner Home Video on July 28, 2009. Green Lantern: First Flight will be available as a special edition 2-disc version on DVD and Blu-Ray™ Hi-Def for $29.98 (SRP) and $34.99 (SRP), respectively, as well as single disc DVD for $19.98 (SRP). Order due date for all versions is June 23, 2009.
Acclaimed actor Christopher Meloni (Law & Order: Special Victims Unit) fills the lead voice of Hal Jordan aka Green Lantern. Meloni is joined by fellow Emmy Award nominee Victor Garber (Milk, Titanic) as the villainous Sinestro, Tricia Helfer (Battlestar Galactica) as the voice of Boodikka, and Michael Madsen (Reservoir Dogs) as Kilowog.
Produced by animation legend Bruce Timm, Green Lantern: First Flight is helmed by heralded director Lauren Montgomery (Wonder Woman, Superman Doomsday) and scripted by four-time Emmy Award-winning writer Alan Burnett (The Batman).
Green Lantern: First Flight finds Hal Jordan recruited to join the Green Lantern Corps and placed under the supervision of respected senior Lantern Sinestro. The earthling soon discovers his mentor is actually the central figure in a secret conspiracy that threatens the philosophies, traditions and hierarchy of the entire Green Lantern Corps. Hal must quickly hone his newfound powers and combat the treasonous Lanterns within the ranks to maintain order in the universe.
Green Lantern: First Flight - 2 Disc Special Edition versions will include incredible bonus features such as:
Over three hours of extra content
Two Featurettes
Digital Copy Download
Widescreen (1.78:1)
Two Episodes of Justice League hand-picked by animation legend Bruce Timm
Green Lantern: First Flight Blu-Ray versions will include all the great extras as the 2-disc
Special Edition as well as an additional two episodes of Justice League picked by Bruce Timm.
“Warner Premiere along with our partners at DC and Warner Home Video has enjoyed great success with the DC Universe titles, and we’re proud to present this first feature-length animated Green Lantern film,†said Diane Nelson, President, Warner Premiere. “‘First Flight’ is a compelling story and a great vehicle to tell this iconic character’s story to both new and longtime fans."
If you wanted a Green Lantern movie to really capture the public, I think you'd need to either use Kyle or John, or perhaps a mixture of the two. Hero artist and hero architect are two things that haven't been done before, whereas heroic flyboy is a bit more familiar.
i don't think DC editorial can hear you. They like to crank the volume up really high when watching Super Friends and jerking it.
What's Kyle status in DC anyways? I read alot of his earlier stuff, since the character appealed to me. I really liked his costume, and loved how he seemed to actually have fun using the ring, creating all sorts of wacky stuff. Then the whole ION thing happened and i stopped following as closely.
When I heard Hal was returning I dropped the book completely. I knew they wouldn't throw Kyle out of DC, but I figured Hal would be THE Green Lantern. Was I wrong?

Kyle and Guy are featured prominently in Green Lantern Corps... which if you have interest in Green Lantern at all, I suggest you read, because it's awesome.

Man I'd love it if the Green Lantern movie was just Top Gun but with power rings
"Sorry, the co-lantern's plaque is in the ladies room"
No, just not the same ring to it.
Are you kidding me? It could totally work.
Alan: Jordan, you just did an incredibly brave thing. What you should have done was respond to your ring! You don't own that ring, the Guardians do! Son, your ego is writing checks your body can't cash. You've been busted, you've lost your qualifications as Sector 2814 section leader three times, put on Prime Duty twice by me, with a history of illegal interference over five unauthorized sectors - and one underage Corps member!
Kyle: Arisia? Again??
Hal: (shrug)
Alan: [at Kyle] And you, asshole, you're lucky to be here!
Kyle: Thank you, sir.

I can't decide, is that a faster than usual turn-around? It'd be cool if they really have these well-queued, and we can expect one every three months like clockwork.

Seriously though. One of my best friends is 1/2 black. That means I'm friends with like 20% of the alaskan african-american population.

Cool. Knowing the history of DC comics and their movies, this probably won't happen any time soon.

There are times when he's shown acting chops. It's still not great, but it's fine.
However, now that he's OMG BADASS, it just gets worse and worse. Yet somehow people just keep thinking he's cooler and cooler.

He's Sam Mother-Fucking Jackson for a reason, and I can't think of anyone I'd rather have behind the eyepatch.
It's more along the lines of establishing it true to the book, and then keeping some consistency.

If I recall correctly, a Bruce Timm Artbook has some work he did on the DKR characters for a pitch to animate it back in the 90s.

is this too much to ask for
You have a better chance of finding a real haunted tank.

I mean, it probably won't, but I bet they'll at least toss in some foreshadowing at the end just as an easter egg to the fans.

gonna cast kurt russel as general stewart
