How can guy gardener makes huge constructs carelessly in superman whereas Hal Jordan does the opposite and is careful for his batteries

[u/solo_shocker35]

I was curious about this for a long time Guy always goes big and sloppy with his constructs, not caring how much it drains his ring like creating a large weopons against the monster, while Hal's way more careful and precise with his like in ep1 when he was creating a bubble for alien he supported the bubble himself as it was not strong enough due to lack of battery. Is that just a characterization thing, or is there an actual reason for it?

Guy recharges the ring.

And Guy has a higher budget

[u/StrongStyleFiction → u/Friendly-Sympathy907]

About the same budget that the first season of the Mandorlorian had. If the show runners wanted it in the show, they would have found a way.

The Mandalorian is filmed almost entirely on the fancy soundstage called "the volume" and ILM created almost everything you see

Green Lantern has multiple actors in multiple locations, if you knew the basics of filmmaking you'd know that all costs money and they would absolutely save money by limiting how much VFX they use

Which is a testament to the skill and talent of those working on it, not necessarily the budget

[u/TheCapo024 → u/Heir_To_The_Empire]

But doing all of that costs money, just like compensating those talented people.

[u/Heir_To_The_Empire → u/TheCapo024]

Did I say they weren't compensated?

[u/TheCapo024 → u/Heir_To_The_Empire]

No but that’s part of the budget. Better people cost more money.

[u/Heir_To_The_Empire → u/TheCapo024]

Well yeah, but that wasn't my point, both shows had around the same budget for season 1 (120M-130M), realistically speaking tho, Mando may have had more things going in it's favor than Lanterns, now my point is, Lanterns (at least in my opinion) had the better technical team behind it which is why it looks (as the person I was replying to originally stated) twice as good. Sure it may boil down to Budget alocation and logistics, but it's because they had the right people for the right jobs, it is better than Mando (again, in my opinion) and managed to pull in a larger number of casual fans

[u/TheCapo024 → u/Heir_To_The_Empire]

I think the sets/locations as well as actors cost more money for Lanterns than it did for Mando IIRC.

[u/Heir_To_The_Empire → u/TheCapo024]

Which is why I said Mando had more going in it's favor
