Normally I would shatter his hopes since the movie was atrocious but he wasn't feeling very well so I decided to be nice and put it on. SOOOOOO BAAADDDDDD!!!But I did realise I forgot a ton of GL feats. The man created a fully functional flamethrower that shot actual flames. Not like green willpower flames. Real freaking flames. That means he was able to not only make the weapon so accurately that it worked as it should, but he was also able to "will" chemicals into existance that were combustable.
Same with the jets. They had actual flames shooting out. The implications of that are crazy. And the flames were in space!!! He also saved Amanda Waller by creating water and wooshing her out of the room like a water slide. It was nuts. So GL has the option of drowning Avengers, creating complex chemicals to burn them up or blow them up.
And finally, the explanation in the film for how his power works was that he could create ANYTHING he could think of. Meaning mini sun is a viable option.
Sorry again for the bump but I had to suffer thur this film so I need to spread the pain
Well said and great post.

Wow, I hate that movie even more now. They made him up to be like the Mask. Anyway, I think my original stance hasn't changed. It would boil down to who's quicker on the draw. Would GL be able to incapacitate all of the Avengers before he gets a repulsor blast, lightning or mjolnir hit to the face?
Oh by the way, what durability feats did GL have in the film again? I'm trying to figure out if he's durable enough to tank shots from the Avengers.

His best feat was probably hitting an asteroid as he was flying thru space as it has been speculated he was moving a ftl speeds.
Skip to 2:15:
But the clip has several other goofy things he can pull out of his ass on the fly
Ah, well then I guess that answers my question. Pretty sure he can tank a few hits from the Avengers. Not sure how much but it should give him a bit of margin for error.
I don't know, I'm somewhat undecided on this match. GL definitely has the raw power to take out the Avengers, I'm just not convinced he can take them on simultaneously. I don't recall him taking out multiple superpowered opponents at the same time, all of whom are capable of putting a hurt on him with a single hit.

Yes but he might not have the speed, reflexes nor fighting skill to allow him to incapacitate all his opponents before he gets clobbered. All the limitless power in the world is useless if you're seeing stars after getting hit in the face.
I'm not saying that's what will happen to him but it's definitely a possibility. GL just hasn't displayed the capability to handle multiple super powered opponents at the same time.
