Green Lantern: It's Ryan Reynolds

[stinglikeabee]

Much thanks to brilliantnova for breaking the news to me. I stay a little later on a Friday night and this is what happens.

Oh geez, so according to Variety and even Wired magazine, Ryan Reynolds is Green Lantern. Sorry Marvel peeps, but I don't want to have to share! The deal's always been we get to keep Christian Bale, and you can have RDJ. But who will get custody of Reynolds? Who's going to explain to the slashers kiddies that the heroic Hal Jordan is also the mind-damaged, Bea-loving, Cable-humping Deadpool? Won't someone please think of the slashers children?

All I knows is, Wade would probably be laughing at this sudden crossover and I dunno, maybe a teensy bit disappointed JT isn't playing him.

Well, at least it isn't JT.

Actually this makes me somewhat happy because it makes me hopeful that if they ever make a Flash movie, he won't be in the running to play Wally anymore...which means someone in charge MIGHT realize that making a Flash movie starring the third Flash is stupid. *bitter, party of one.*

HA! Very true.

*joins pervy in the bitter party* A Wally movie would be a horrible misfire.

OT: Y'know what I'd really want to see? Not a movie, but a tv show with the two Atoms (Ray and Choi) teaching at a college and doing crazy mad science together. And fighting the baddies with lasers! We totally need something to replace Smallville, that show is starting to rot my brain.

well...at least he's yummy... ;) I would have gone to see this movie anyway, so this is a bit of an added bonus in a way...

Your entry totally made me giggle! I kinda needed that... :)

Haha! Yummy and Canadian. And according to the quick google search I made, it seems fans are happy with the choice.

Thanks :) And hope you're still not stuck in airport limbo!

LOL! *hearts you*

When I heard the news my first thought was, what will stinglikeabee think!? Then I went, wait, isn't he Marvel!?

Hee. Maybe comic fandom is big enough for Deadpool Ryan Reynolds. Maybe he's the one to make us DC-only and Marvel-only fans cross the lines and say, 'that movie really sucked. I mean, it was awesome.' But we still have Christian Bale, right?
