So does this mean the Deadpool movie is off?
That said, he can pull it off.The Punisher: I’m going to cauterize your rectum, sealing it shut, so when you turn those delicious Pink Pants™ Fruit Pies into waste products the bilirubin in your feces will leach into your bloodstream and you’ll die screaming! And I’ll watch while having sex with this grateful prostitute!

In other words, what StoneGold said.

Whoa.......whoa.......this puts Deadpool back some. But DC is gonna start filming it in a few weeks from reports. He'll do this , his profile gets even more damn higher , and then he goes and does Deadpool once their ready.
Ok you angry nerds.... SPEAK ON THIS GUY BEING HAL JORDAN ! (I'm a Reynolds fan so good casting I think !)

Ryan Reynolds is Green Lantern
Just announced...
What do you think?
I see Reynolds as a funny guy role, not sure if he's a good fit for Green Lantern...

I take Deadpool not coming out as fast as we thought. Fox is going to go with either another Wolverine film or X-Men: First Class then.

Of the three choices, he's the best one. I think Reynolds is a good actor, he genuinely loves the character of Deadpool, and I think he'll do a fine job as Hal Jordan. Maybe he can give him a personality now.

They don't even have a script ready for Deadpool as a spinoff. And filming for GL starts in August. Reynolds can go film this for 6-8 months , then come back once a script , director and others are hired and do Deadpool.

I'm willing to withhold judgment. After all, I was initially against Heath Ledger as the Joker.

Alot Better than Timberlake, but Hal Jordan is an uptight, kind of a jackass...I like Reynolds but he's too comedic to be Jordan, but I guess it's not the first time a character was not been faithful to the source material. I still have faith in this movie.

One word to sum up my reaction~Yummy!
Oh….I must say I’m surprised at how readily you boys bastardized your code of ethics in order to justify a morally dubious decision. That was very grown up of you. - Cornfed

ok I love Ryan Reynolds and he totally has the right look for Hal and i do like that he is a comic fan because you know he will want to keep it close to source BUT Ryan always plays the same character and i can't think of a serious role that he has had that makes me think he can pull it off. when i heard christian bale was playing batman i thought back to American psycho and i went "yeah he can do it"
i am a HUGE Green Lantern fan (i have the logo tattooed on my finger) so i need this movie to be good for me to be able to continue living my life a happy man.
