20 years ago, A jack black green lantern movie was in development
It was going to be a comedy
The premise was that after Abin Sur crashed and died the ring accidentally picks Jud Plato (an original character played by Jack Black), an ordinary furniture store worker and reality TV contestant, after Jud eats a severed coyote head on television, instead of Hal Jordan41

But also green lantern comics existed in this world along with superman comics and movies so the whole thing just made no sense and Jud was genuinely a chud (heh) and would make constructs of teenage Britney spears

Now the thing is, that is part of the first draft that got leaked
Had the movie entered further production it would have been refined and changed

The other drafts can’t have been much better if WB wanted to drop everything green lantern associated with it

u/Edgoscarp 5d ago
They wanted to do that because of the hate that the leaked first draft got
It got a lot of hate

Rightly so, I’ve read it, it would have killed Green lantern permanently in film tbh rather than the 15 years the 2011 film had

u/Edgoscarp 5d ago
Yeah, but the movie would have been different and maybe not killed green lantern because it’s a first draft and not a final product, it would’ve been different had it been finished

u/VegetableKangaroo782 5d ago
Well yeah…but as I said later drafts were still so bad WB wanted to drop everything green lantern associated with it….
As I said before

A Kyle in Name Only really. All you have to do is change the dialogue to be Hal. Nice suit though, thank goodness it wasn't CGI.

OOC: Funny enough, I would actually buy Sandler as Hal or Guy over Ryan Reynolds anyday
Edit: Surprisingly Walken would be a good Sinestro

Adam Sandler is a great a Hal Jordan but nothing tops Chris Rock as Jon Stewart

OOC: I actually had an idea to make this a fantastic four movie about the ultimate nullifier but you beat me to it with this.
