For Your Anticipation: We're Going to Fly Now

Seriously? What kind of irritating, self-evident line is that? "We're going to fly now?" AHHHHHH!!!!! I'm sorry, but this latest superhero film is just pushing all the needlessly wrong buttons, with visual effects and performances so obvious that it makes me gag. I pray that I don't actually get put in a position to see this film, because I imagine no other outcome than extreme and excruciating pain. So no, I don't care about Green Lantern.

Theatrical Trailer: Green Lantern

I hate it when a trailer like this comes along and almost fools me into loving it. Footage for Green Lantern hit the net a few days before this trailer, and I absolutely hated it almost entirely. It looked like they spliced some Ryan Reynolds comedy into our superhero film. This trailer does a good job of clearing some of that off, and it almost got me to believe in the facade they were fashioning. It ultimately didn't work, because of a few cheesy lines, some obvious and corny CGI, and that guy with the head. I like the logos, and the effects used for the tagline had me remembering the old days of film trailers. However, for the most part, I know what this film will turn out to be, which is probably some half-assed attempt at what Spider-Man had. Take a look and judge for yourselves.
