Ryan needs to be Green Lantern again


What happened is not Ryan's fault and I think he needs a second chance with a better writer and villain. He needs to be in Justice League as well. He can be both Deadpool and Green Lantern he does amazing work. Please come back Ryan to the green.

He was really rubbish in this, but i agree i think it was more to do with the weak script and material. Then again the whole concept is a bit dumb.

He said he'll never play another comic book character again besides Deadpool.

I think he's a douche bag pussy for what he did to bash this film during Deadpool's campaign. I agree he should champion a sequel, but now that he's a Marvel icon, and publicly rips on GL, chances are slim. Sorry Ryan, Deadpool will never be as interesting as the story that requires the words "Billions of years ago" to explain its premise.

reply

Douche for bashing GL? This movie almost ruined his status and career and it wasn't even his fault !

Deadpool will never be as interesting as GL lore? To whom? You effing idiot. Deadpool is making almost 800 million $ worldwide, with an R rating and without China market.
GL made 219m $ around the globe in it's entire run, with Pg-13 and 3D.

You're either gay for GL or a desperate child.

Im sure people on china wouldnt take a liking to deadpool. I just rewatchwd GL and it is really underrated and deadpool is overrated. I enjoyed both films but i think deadpool did so well because it was new and edgy. GL will always be more interesting though because of the entire lantern corps and the imagination/power behind the rings. A 4th wall breaking merc with a mouth although entertaining, is not as interesting. At the end of both movies i was craving a GL sequel more than a Deadpool one, especially with the sinestro ending.

reply

I seriously doubt there is enough money in the world to get him to do this character again.

reply

I was just thinking about if they had added the character to the new "Justice League" movie, should (or would) Ryan reprise his role as Green Lantern?

We all die. The goal isn''t to live forever, the goal is to create something that will.

reply

Agreed! Even a cameo, like Batman in Suicide Squad, if nothing else other than to gauge fan reaction. GL was/is a long time member of JLA in the comics.

reply

He was brilliant in this and enjoyable in every frame. I quite liked the film because of him. Ryan is a great actor but he's the same in Blade Trinity, GL and Deadpool so you can hardly say HE was rubbish

reply

I liked Reynolds as Green Lantern but I can't see any way he'll risk coming back to it. Why would he? He's doing very nicely with Deadpool.





All for a box of chocolates...

Hopefully Reynolds will be in Green Lantern Corps.

reply

If he can play a 2.0 version of Deadpool then there's no reason why he couldn't do the same with this.
