Just got back from a week and change in San Diego for Neuroscience. Things got a bit intense off the hook at times, but more importantly (for the topic of this post) I couldn't get around to watching the GREEN LANTERN teaser trailer that launched earlier this week (available on Yahoo!
here).
So I just did. A couple quick thoughts for the peanut gallery:
* Blake Lively (an actress I know absolutely nothing about) has one line of dialogue. It is terrible, and so is her delivery.
* I was completely and utterly shocked to see Abin Sur showing up looking fairly Abin Sur-ish. I'm not sure why, I just was.
* By contrast, I was thoroughly unsurprised to see Tomar-Re show up and be Tomar-Re-ish. Ditto. Quite pleased by Kilowog, tho. I desperately hope he calls people "poozer."
* Hector Hammond is exactly the sort of supervillian I expect to not convert to film at all well. I'm intensely curious to see how this turns out.
