Just for fun, in honor of the new Green Lantern movie that opened locally today, I thought I would see how many people here would say the Green Lantern Oath with me:
In brightest day, In blackest night
No evil shall escape my sight
Let those who worship Evil's might
Beware my power....
Green Lantern's Light!
Green Lantern Oath
Thanks for the blog.

One of the best
Green lanterns I've ever seen is John Stewart is the recently WB animated Justice league animated series. Ex-Marine black guy from the inner city with jade eyes...a definite change. I also really like how they depict Manhunter, Hawkgirl and especially Wonderwoman. it's a definite check it out kind of thing.
Oh and there's a GL corps short story anthology on PPV right now with Nathan Fillion (Mal from Firefly) doing the voice of Hal Jordan and it's a really good flick too.

Based on the reviews I've heard...
The general critical response appears to be along the lines of:
In brightest day, in blackest night,
Avert your gaze, withdraw your sight,
May you refrain with all your might:
Beware this film - "Green Lantern" is... [REDACTED]
(Now you know why I don't write poetry or filks!)
If the trailer was anything to go by, I suppose you could say it's an antidote to the rather dark, introspective superhero films we've had lately, but to go so far in the opposite direction the protagonist appears to have a similar personality to Booster Gold... oh dear.
There are 10 kinds of people in the world - those who understand binary and those who don't...
As the right side of the brain controls the left side of the body, then only left-handers are in their right mind!
In loudest din or hush
In loudest din or hush profound,
my ears catch evil's slightest sound.
Let those who toll out evil's knell,
beware my power, The F-Sharp Bell.
I thought I was the only one who remembered that one
I really rather enjoyed that story.

For another of that set, by Nephilpal, same place, different thread.
Yet another, this by Revlid, from yet a third thread. ^^;
I really enjoy some of my hobbies. ^__^
(And yes, all of these types of characters are intended to be at best anti-heroic, dropping down at least one sliding scale to utterly monstrous.)

Hm... I think the oath is cool :)

They seek him here.
They seek him there.
Those Frenchies seek him everywhere.
Is he in Heaven,
Or is he in Hell?
