I enjoyed first flight. They made it easily accessible for people new to Green Lantern.

For me... I was just glad it was Hal Jordan... because, y'know... in the DCAU Abin Sur gave the ring to Kyle, and then John was displayed as the most important Earth GL... Hal made a single appearance during a temporal shift, and that was it. Sure Boodika was portrayed inaccurately... so what? It could be worse.

isnt the most important thing with Hal jordan and GL mythos , is that he was chosen among others by a dying alien to join an intergalactic space force known as GLC

I thought the movie was pretty great actually. They changed storylines or the "mythos". All up and down in JL and JLU and people still love that. I fail to see the problem.I LOVE conspiracy theorists. They are like human versions of the cymbal clapping, dancing monkeys. No one takes them all that seriously and they get bored with them after about 10 minutes.

They threw in the oath at the end as an afterthought, which pretty much says it all :| We didn't see Hal charge his ring at all, making Sinestro a villain so soon was retarded, they could have at least made it resemble some of the origin stories from the comic, but almost none of it was recognizable, personally, I'm glad it failed miserably.
If they wanted to so something SCW related, they should have just done that, screw the origin story. They tried to pack too much from the last 40+ years of comics into 90 minutes and it felt disjointed and rushed.

IMO that movie could have been way worse. Does it really matter when we hear the oath as long as we hear it? I really didnt see it as being rushed at all.I LOVE conspiracy theorists. They are like human versions of the cymbal clapping, dancing monkeys. No one takes them all that seriously and they get bored with them after about 10 minutes.

After I was disappointed with First Flight, I resolved to learn everything I could about the live-action to avoid any surprise letdowns. So far, so good.

Personally I dont think a GL should recite the oath untill they are done training. Just the same way (although I think it's changed now) that they don't get the GL Symbol on their uniform till training is done.I LOVE conspiracy theorists.

That may be true but, and I could be wrong, I didn't think you had to recite the oath every time you recharge.I LOVE conspiracy theorists. They are like human versions of the cymbal clapping, dancing monkeys. No one takes them all that seriously and they get bored with them after about 10 minutes.
