It's funny how these animated films only have a budget of $3-4 million and one group of writers write 3-4 of them a year, but they end up being way better than a live action film that cost $200 million and took 3 years to make. And instead of being rewarded for their competence and success, the animated team are punished when the live action movie fails. Like how the failure of the live action Green Lantern movie led to the cancellation of the GL animated show and other GL animated movies being shelved.

His decisions with the TV shows, series and movies have been terrible. He needs to be taken away from any of the live action universe going forward.

Green Lantern is one of my favourite DC heroes and these amazing animated films like First Flight aand Emerald Knights introduced me to the ever expanding, incredibly fascinating and creative stories of thee Green Lantern comics. They are truly phenomenal stories with compelling, interesting characters and gripping stories, Geoff John's GL run is still one of my favourite comic-book runs in general. First Flight is like Training Day in space and an epic sci fi story and a glimpse at how amazing the DC Intergalactic universe is as well as the GL stories. Victor Garber's Sinestro is by far the best performance and truly and fantastic portrayal of how multi facetted Sinestro is as a character/villain.

I really want to like it, but the choices are just so bizarre. Like they can't seem to decide if Hal's problem is that he's possessed or that he's corrupted by an ideal of the ends justifying the means. Which John & Ollie basically agree with in the end anyway. And Parallax's goal was to end a war...that he was prolonging. And Hawkgirl's arc is clearly about overcoming xenophobia, but she ends with all but saying "Adam Strange is a credit to his race." If it was just one or two things, I could look the other way, but there's so much. Also, speaking of Hawkgirl, & the old cartoon, she's just so much more layered there, even in her first appearance. Yeah, she's a hardass, a bit overly aggressive, but you also get the sense that she's snarky & has a sense of fun. So, I couldn’t help but be disappointed that this version doesn't really have anything going for her but being a Proud Warrior Race Gal. She's cool in a fight scene, but bizarrely, is mostly absent from the climax.

7:00, Liara’s father and his supposed quest to restore honor to himself and his people and avenge their initial defeat at the hands of former enemies is shown to be hiding his insecurity over not being able to protect his people without help and being ignored by the Lantern ring that chose his daughter. This insecurity is what motivated his unrealistic ambitions of conquering even the Guardians and what the ring ignored him on the battlefield and wouldn’t work for him even when he thought beating his daughter would somehow earn it’s allegiance. Liara being willing to confront her family in order to spare her people from being forced to become a military state bent on conquest is the very worthiness the ring saw in her and the honorable qualities her father lacks. It’s a subtle but interesting way to portray the classic Green Lantern struggle between fear and will by focusing on fear in the form of anxieties over one’s self-image and how that fear can lead an individual to become corrupt and potentially corrupt their environment in the process. Hell, they even use the color yellow in much of the area and costumes to further plant the idea of fear being the source of corrupt on the planet only to be replaced by green, the color of will and courage.

I feel like the live action film could've taken elements from these films. For instance, keep a single focused villain for your introductory movie. They had the third corner of the love triangle and the cosmic horror to deal with, along with trying to set up Sinestro's descent for the nonexistent sequel. Stick with one and lean into it. I feel like First Flight made the best choice in this instance. If they wanted to have Sinestro so badly, then just make him the villain and grow from there. Second, find your protagonist's flaw and make him confront it. From the sound of it, that's what Beware My Power got right. Seeing how they went with Ryan Reynolds, who was giving it his all, how about humility? Hal learns what Sinestro's up to, realizes he can't stop him himself, and reports him to the Lantern Corp. Mass beatdown on the presumed greatest among them ensues. Third, take a bit from Emerald Knights to build up select members from the Corp, and it develops a great sense of joining something greater than yourself, and the test of will to police even those you admire. Turning them all into glorified cameos did nothing for the fans or those entering the lore blind.

Its a problem when every movie has to Regurgitate an origin story.

I actually disagree with your opinion on Hal's incredible natural talent and affinity. I think what makes Hal the greatest lantern is that he has an abundance of the qualities that make lanterns powerful- imagination and willpower. It's easy to understand First Flight in the context of John Stewart in JLU. John was a marine, a soldier. Lots of willpower, but his imagination was weak, and Katma Tui chastised him and Kyle Rayner for "using their rings like jackhammers". John's grown up jaded cynicism (beautifully contrasted by his behaviour in Kid Stuff) makes him use the ring in some pretty simplistic and unimaginative ways. Hal's natural childlike curiosity and enthusiasm (in all of Green Lantern history has anyone ever accepted the ring as readily as Hal?) is actually what makes him the undisputed greatest lantern. It's what allows him to accrue the power necessary to become Parallax, or a white lantern, whatever super powerful ultimate version of Hal a given continuity prefers.
