Green Lantern – Not the Movie

Not freaking bad for a fan-made trailer. Sure makes me believe that A Green Lantern movie could be the next big thing for DC if they get their act together. Watch carefully and you’ll spot a number of fan fave Green Lanterns Corps members (besides Dr. Horrible nemesis (and potential Celebrity Beefcake) Nathan Fillion as Hal Jordan), including:Abin Sur, Killowog, Ch’p (or some other squirrelish Lantern), Galius Zed and Tomar-Re

Casting Captain Hammer as Hal Jordan? This might be the only way Hollywood could make up for giving us a Whedon-less Buffy movie.

This is jaronpitts‘ vision for a Green Lantern movie starring Nathan Fillion as Hal Jordan. He cobbled it together using AfterFX, zBrush and highlights from the following movies, tv shows, and trailers: Planet of the Apes, Serenity Trailer, Fantastic 4: Rise of the Silver Surfer, Stardust Trailer, The Lord of the Rings – The Fellowship of the Ring, Firefly, Dragonball Evolution Trailer, Galaxy Quest, The Fountain Trailer, Superman Returns Trailer, The Day the Earth Stood Still, Smallville, Justice League TAS, GI Joe Trailer, Contact, Star Trek Enterprise, Star Wars Episode III, The Mutant Chronicles Trailer, Iron Man, Star Trek Trailer, Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe Cutscene, The Chronicles of Riddick, Kamen Rider, Bedtime Stories, MIB 2, Escape from Witch Mountain Trailer, The Matrix Revolutions, The Chronicles of Narnia – Prince Caspian and White Noise 2.

How many Titans will join the Black Lanterns?

Of all supergroups in the history of comics, The Teen Titans seem to have the largest group of honored dead. And it gonna bit them in the ass this summer when the Black Lanterns come to town. We’ve seen the cover sporting Changeling embracing a dead Terra. Who else is going to show up???

The dead are (alphabetically): Anima, Aquagirl (Tula) Baby Wildebeest, Bushido, Danny Chase, Dove (Don Hall), Duela Dent, Gnarrk, Hawk (Hank Hall), Kole, Lightning, Molecule, Omen (Lilith Clay), Osiris, Pantha, Power Boy, Terra I, Terra II and Thunder

Anima was Killed in Faces of Evil: Prometheus one-shot Aquagirl (Tula) died in Crisis on Infinite Earths #10 Baby Wildebeest was killed in Infinite Crisis #4 Bushido was killed in Infinite Crisis #4
Danny Chase died and became Phantasm in New Teen Titans #84 Dove (1) died in Crisis on Infinite Earths #12 Duela Dent a.k.a. Harlequin a.k.a. Joker's Daughter was killed by a Monitor in Countdown #51 Gnarrk was revealed as dead in Tales of the Teen Titans #50
Hawk a.k.a. Monarch a.k.a. Extant died in JSA #15 Kole died in Crisis on Infinite Earths #12 Lightning died with his brother Thunder in Salvation Run #7 Molecule dies in Terror Titans #1
Lilith Clay a.k.a. Omen died in Titans/Young Justice: Graduation Day #3 Osiris was eaten by Sobek in 52 #43. Pantha was killed in Infinite Crisis #4 Power Boy was killed in Titans East Special #1
Tara Markov a.k.a. Terra (I) died in Tales of the Teen Titans Annual #3 Also known as Tara Markov, Terra (II) was killed by Black Adam during World War III Thunder died with his brother Lightning in Salvation Run #7

I left off the recently resurrected Superboy and Kid Flash although since they were brought back in the future, couldn’t they still be Black Lanterns in the present? I also left off a hoard of other previously dead Titans who have since been revived, or retconned to life: Jericho, Raven, Donna Troy, Jason Todd, Golden Eagle, Bombshell and Young Frankenstein.

So do you think ALL these dead Titans are going to descend upon Titans Tower like a cosmic zombie super-plague? I hope they paid their insurance premiums this month. I bet they went up after Ravager blew up half the place to take out the Terror Titans.
