Green Lantern Will Kick Ass...IMO

Beating out the likes of Justin Timberlake and Bradley Cooper, Ryan Reynolds has signed on to play Green Lantern. Total Film reports:

For those of you out of the loop, Green Lantern (aka test pilot Hal Jordan) is a superhero who draws his abilites from a special power ring, which allows him to do various cool things, including fly, create forcefields, and so on.

Van Wilder has come so far, I feel like a proud father. - NS

The Final 3 To Be Green Lantern

It was announced this morning that there are three contenders in line for the new Warner Bros./ DC Comics flick Green Lantern. They are Bradley Cooper, Ryan Reynolds, and Justin Timberlake.

Bradley Cooper I get. He's coming of a box office hit in The Hangover but I think at best you get one Green Lantern movie out of him, he's not carrying a franchise. He was the least funny part of that movie anyways. I don't get Justin Timberlake, he can't handle this size of a role.

Justin Timberlake + Guy Ritchie - Madonna =

According to British tabloid The Sun, Justin Timberlake is rumored to star in the new big-screen adaptation of the musical Guys and Dolls, directed by Guy Ritchie. (The pop star and director apparently recently shook hands over drinks.) Action star -- and frequent Ritchie cast member -- Jason Statham is also possibly attached to the project.

I love Jason Statham. He woops serious ass. His best project with Ritchie of course is Snatch. With JT attached to this one, it will probably stay that way. - NS
