Trey please! The wet blanket is smothering my fanjoy!

OK, Geoff will make Guy and John the stars.

I think if there can be enough contrast between Hal and John, even with Geoff Johns involved with the screen play.

In the New52 of the Justice League, Johns had written Hal as a bright light, big action and over confident character in contrast to Batman's stoic, methodical and low profile approach. Which is also playing out in Darkseid War. I think Stewart can be the Batman-like methodical and mild mannered contrast to Hal's upbeat and hotshot antics. Perhaps like Kirk and McCoy, so instead of "Damn it, Jim!" we get "Damn it, Hal!"

OohRAH!

Yeah, I think there's built in contrast between a hot shot test pilot and a Jarhead.

Just enough to make the pairing perfect imo. Intergalactic buddy cop movie, with Lanterns? Wild horses couldn't drag me away.

It has potential, but John wins all of the arguments. All of them.

I'm a big Hal fan, but I also spent six years in the Marine Corps.

No way John would ever put up with that Zoomie B.S. Hal throws around, although chain of command is generally a big deal with Uncle Sam's Misguided Children...

I'm telling you turkeys, the key is to do a 70s period piece and recreate John's first appearance, afro and all. He'll be the jive-talking militant and Hal will be the straight-laced honky. It will be dyn-o-mite.

Oh man, you just ruined me for any OTHER possible GLC movie plot. WB needs to immediately fire whoever's writing the script, we have their man.

John HAS to have the ascot!

I honestly rather see a Training Day type movie with Hal Jordan and Sinestro but that's not happening. As for a buddy cops film I wish we could see Hal & Kilowog but I guess I'll settle with Hal & John and I'm sure that will work fine. Hal will be the rule breaker while John will be the boyscout.

I don't know if I'd put it in top ten space, but it was pretty good and I still hope to get the CD some day.
