Over at Comicbookmovie.com, they have gotten their hands on seven Green Lantern aliens from the upcoming movie starring Ryan Reynolds, and if they are legit, the movie costumes and character designs are pretty close to the comics – with the exception of Hal Jordan’s costume, of course.

The seven aliens are Boodikka, Bzzd, Morro, Galius Zed, M’Dahna, Rot Lop Fan, and Salaak.

The images are after the break.

First off, the official Green Lantern movie logo:

Looking good.

And the SDCC goodies just keep on coming. Warner Brothers has just released teaser posters for the upcoming Green Lantern movie starring Ryan Reynolds. We have four posters in all, featuring a portion of the Green Lantern oath, and as much as I hate the (unfinished) Green Lantern costume, the posters are giving me hope for this film.

Check out the teaser posters after the break.

Err… okay. So. Here’s Ryan Reynolds as Hal Jordan in the upcoming Green Lantern movie. RJ likes the damn thing, but… I dunno. Not exactly a fan of the glowing lines going around the suit. Also the old-school ring isn’t doing anything for me; they should’ve used the newer ring designs. I like the mask though. I’ve always thought that Ryan Reynolds as Hal is an oddball casting choice, but it’s a gamble that just might work, especially with Martin Campbell at the helm.

Anyway, that’s the costume. What do you think?

I’m pretty sure you guys are all aware by now that us guys at Comicgasm are all huge Green Lantern nerds. And we’re obviously excited for the new Green Lantern Movie, starring Ryan Reynolds as Hal Jordan/Green Lantern, Blake Lively (HHHNNNNGH) as Carol Ferris, Peter Sarsgaard as Hector Hammond, and Mark Strong as Sinestro. Okay, we’re not exactly excited with the guy playing Hal Jordan, but Martin Campbell’s directing this, and if Casino Royale is any indication, this movie is going to be awesome.

A few months before, we’ve seen some concept art of the GL movie leak. We don’t know if those were the concepts they used for the movie, but they were awesome. Now, from MTV, we have here newly-revealed promo art for Green Lantern. (continue reading…)

Okay. Blackest Night. What a ride.

So I just finished reading Blackest Night 8, and what can I say? It’s fucking awesome. It has all these moments that both made me geekgasm and cringe. Dialogue is still typical Geoff Johns: cliche-riddled but somehow it works. But in the end it’s so fucking awesome I totally forgot about the book’s flaws and I just sat and took it all in.

Okay then. Now on to the SPOILER-FILLED PART OF THE REVIEW (don’t read any further if you haven’t read BN #8): (continue reading…)
