Well, we've seen Iron Man's ally and fellow armored hero War Machine on the big screen, and I now wonder how long it will be before Green Lantern John Stewart gets his chance. There was an Easter Egg in the Green Lantern film that hinted at Stewart's existence, but sequel chances are less than slim for that movie. However, it's under-performance may just cause DC/Warner Brothers to scrap Hal Jordan altogether and use Stewart instead as the GL for an upcoming Justice League film, just as they did (and did very well) in the animated version. I thought Hal got a raw deal and would like for him to have another silver screen chance, but I would not mind if they went with that option. I was already a fan of the character, and I really liked what they did with him on JLA/JLU, especially his relationship with Hawkgirl.
What is the John Stewart easter egg in the film Green Lantern?
ReplyDeleteJohn's got his ring on the wrong hand. Alan Scott was the only left-handed earthborn Green Lantern.
ReplyDeleteThis is the Earth STF Stewart so it all makes sense.
ReplyDeleteWho knows what DC/Warner Bros. have planned for the JLA movie, but this movie studio never fails to disappoint, so I won't even bother to get my hopes up. It would be great if John Stewart was in it. Edris Elba would be perfect.
ReplyDeleteI'd rather have a gay Alan Scott as GL in the JLA movie
ReplyDeleteHow about the obvious sequel to this team up - War Machine & Steel!
ReplyDeleteThe MINORITeam! Cool! On a side note...am I the only one who loved Black Lightning's Afro-mask? How cool was that!?
ReplyDeleteIf Jordan had to be replaced, the only logical GL is Stewart. He is the most significant (historically speaking), most developed and appealing after Hal. The rest would have little audience interest.
