he too wears a mask of sorts.

At least Kyle's covers pretty much his whole face. Hal's is more like Clark Kent's glasses, which they even pointed out in the film making a joke out of it.

Nah. I didn't give him a pass. I put a list of pros & cons for the Earth GLs a lil while ago. I doubt they'll ever put Kyle in live action anyway, but if they do they should nix that kinda stuff if they wanna give off a serious police force vibe. These guys should be John &Guy. That would be money

I think if Green lantern were EVER revisited, a cool idea to move forward from the disaster of the first film would be to do a Green lantern Corps film. I actually kind of like the idea of having John AND Guy as the stars. Straight laced John with Guy as the comic relief and foil. That could totally work. They could even introduce or hint to Kyle.

Just two hours ago I published a story called "The Rock Pretty Much Admits He's Playing Lobo," based on three clues that Dwayne Johnson gave to press while doing an interview about the Hercules trailer. Halfway through these clues, while sitting at the table across from him, I was certain the character he was describing was Lobo. The Rock had been connected to the character before, after all, and I assumed The Rock would be doing a solo movie with Warner Bros - after all, he's one of cinema's biggest action stars. By the time The Rock called his mystery character a 'badass mother****er' I was certain that it was Lobo. I mean, he leaned on 'badass mother****er,' and not many DC heroes fit that bill.

But within minutes of the story going up I was contacted by two different good sources. One was pretty blunt: "It's not Lobo," I was told. Who was it? This source didn't know. My second source was more circumspect, and confirmed it wasn't Lobo and then asked me, "Why does it have to be a hero?"

Which, wow. The nature of the conversation we were having had The Rock telling us he loved superheroes, and it seemed like he was going for a heroic part (it's worth noting that other stuff The Rock said after the interview was officially over make me quite very 100% convinced he's not playing John Stewart. Like, things that are not vague but that I don't have recorded). But if The Rock isn't playing a hero, which villain will it be?

I think it's Black Adam, a character to whom he has been connected in the past. Maybe they'll make Black Adam an antihero, instead of simply Captain "SHAZAM!" Marvel's nemesis?

So perhaps I jumped to a conclusion. All of a sudden my sureness about Lobo has disappeared. A Black Adam movie? Or a SHAZAM! movie? Could this be why Marvel is doing Ms. Marvel instead of Captain Marvel - avoiding any headaches and hassles in advance?

Waaaay back then when I made that prediction, I had only apathy for Hal. I didn't have to hope he'd fail, I just knew that he would. The combination of dealing w/stubborn Hal fanboys on other forums who still act like Hal is the only option even after his megafail, seeing Hal continuously forced on us, finding out that the guys running things at DC(Johns, Didio) are Hal fanboys, and hearing of plans to off John has turned me into a Hal hater. I'd love to go back to just being indifferent sad

Agreed. Not a fan of him either. Killing John was probably part of his pro Hal agenda tho :/

lol he just likes Hal more than John. He still included John in his books, and gave him some nice moments during his run.

I think Rock could be an amazing Black Manta.

Aquaman though? God no.

I don't believe that, but if WB is considering The Rock for Aquaman, it wouldn't be farcetched on their part. Justin Hartley (Green Arrow in Smallville) would make a great Aquaman.

He was good in the pilot, so I wouldn't have a problem with him playing him.

The one thing an Aquaman movie will live and die on, though, is the tone. Johns hit it just right with the current series, but it has to strike that balance between superhero and eco-warrior.
