I imagine that the 2013 <i>Iron Man 3</i> is set in stone, but after <i>Green Lantern</i>, I think Warner is going to be very reluctant to make any movies without Batman or Superman, so <i>Flash</i> and <i>Wonder Woman</i> are probably off the table.<br /><br />I guess my prediction is for two major superhero pictures in 2013, <i>IM3</i> and <i>Wolverine 2</i>, the first of which will underperform and the second of which will bomb, and then nothing but <i>Ghost Rider</i>-sized projects for a year or two after that, though Warner is going to make a fourth Batman without Nolan or Bale, and it will tank.Timhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09491952893581644049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14812333.post-57196505605500430032011-06-21T09:52:56.550-05:002011-06-21T09:52:56.550-05:00"... though he was but the second human being..."... though he was but the second human being to bear the name Green Lantern, though this is not really at all the right moment to dig into the esoterica of Silver Age vs. Golden Age comic book series."<br /><br />Haha!

When I saw the credits (and that abysmal last scene that angered me in its shamelessness & stupidity), I figured out what it was: James Howard Newton had written the music!<br /><br />Is it a bad sign when you can recognize a composer because you DISLIKE the music? I saw his name and just blurted out, "KNEW IT!" complete with raising my hands in frustration.Rickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16611922269342141654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14812333.post-16262222488379183472011-06-18T20:14:50.922-05:002011-06-18T20:14:50.922-05:00Ah, I see you've finally installed some guidel...Ah, I see you've finally installed some guidelines - good for you! <br /><br />I pretty much figured GL would be a dud, although I'm surprised to find out it wasn't as bad as I imagined it.
