Green Lantern vs. Thor
Big news today, Green Lantern fans — and by “big,” I mean “somewhat noteworthy,” and by “Green Lantern fans,” I mean “you, there, in the green shirt.” According to the MTV Splash Page , the Green Lantern movie has been pushed back from December 2010 to June 17, 2011, the exact date Marvel’s Thor movie is supposed to be released.
This is all a bunch of nothing right now, if you ask me. Determining the release date of Green Lantern is like determining when the world is going to come to an end — no matter how specific of a date you get, the world’s still not going to come to an end. Boy, that metaphor seemed a lot clearer in my head.
But apparently this release date change is all your fault for not seeing The Spirit and Punisher: War Zone when they were in theaters this past December. Which begs the question, “Punisher: War Zone was released in theaters?”
And speaking of Green Lantern, these casting rumors are getting out of control. So far, Chris Pine, Sam Worthington, Sam Witwer, Bradley Cooper, Shawn Roberts, and Brian Austin Green have all been mentioned as possible Hal Jordans.
Am I the only one who can just recognize half of those names? This almost isn’t fun anymore.
