Lanterns [Crime, DC Studios] (Page 1 of 2)

Oh... I'll lower my expectations before watching then.

You'll like it.  It's a mystery so I'll watch to know what it's all about, but it feels very familiar and pulled from sources like I've seen this before, some of the ideas from Captain Marvel, Men in Black, and X-files, among others, feel like they're in here.

Ya, your spoiler comments are great reasons for why this is mid, it doesn't focus on the science fiction part of the DCU Green Lantern story as much as it focuses on the mystery crime drama, and we're also left without inciting incidents for our lead characters journeys but thrown into the middle of a punctuated story at different time periods.

I also thought the dad looked too young and I bet a lot of people thought the same thing, but at 21 years apart, it works, ish, also....

This is where I see this show going:

The mystery is compelling, and the special effects definitely feel HBO, the rest of it feels CW.

Wow this show reminded me of starring at a blank white sheet of paper. Dull, boring etc etc. Will give it one more episode before I decide to kill it.

Just realized only 8 episodes, so I will kill it now. Thank goodness I did not waste too much time on this.

Too much wrong with this show.

Without even knowing their name? Who is writing this?

Fixed. But I did not consider those spoilers. But I value your opinion so I fixed it. Thank you for helping me.

James Gunn & Tim King most notably; the same kind of people as Taika Waititi who said "I will ruin your childhood".

PEE-YEW!  Yet ANOTHER 'made for the modern audience' adaptation by Hollyweird.  You know it's gonna be bad when they publicly announce "...saying GREEN Lantern Corp just sounds dumb" and they always ignore the source material.  There were so many woke tropes that I lost count before it ended.  One of which caught me off guard and made me laugh was when I saw the sign for Sheridan County, lol.  That's a 'dog whistle' to let the viewer know this is a bad place run by evil white men who love guns, militias & using the word "colonizers" when referring to aliens.  In short, it was 'comically bad', LOL.

1x02 had a slow start but ended pretty good, I liked it. Story is moving forward and problems are getting solved which suggests this might not be another Damon Lindelof mystery box show.

I hope this goes away, but her accent drove me crazy this episode, I was like, what accent is that, even Hal brought it up, and I was reminded of this quote:

Amy Poehler Makes Fun of British Actors Doing American Accents

I have zero faith in anything produced by DC anymore, I've been giving everything by them a pass since Aquaman came out, and this is probably gonna go unwatched too.

There's a lot more than one bullet hole.  You see a whole string of them going down at least a foot from the top one as he walks away.  Makes it seem like this has been going on for years as he grows taller.

Maybe Sr. is

103 - OutKast - An origin story retcon that's less interesting than if they just followed the traditional story.  The comic character of John Stewart is more human and realistic than the TV show. 

wokity woke woke woke.... ffs!

Brothers! What we do in life...Echoes in Eternity!
