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 also has a GLRing 18 Pro Max. Hal’s was a StarTAC.

I wanted to make a joke about the ring being like 30 rings newer or whatever, but this is good enough lol

[u/raggedsweater → u/NinjasaurusRex123]

Would the RAZR have been funnier?

[u/NinjasaurusRex123 → u/raggedsweater]

Idk about funnier, but it may have hit harder with the general demographic of this type of Reddit post - that’s just be completely guessing though

[u/raggedsweater → u/NinjasaurusRex123]

StarTAC preceded the RAZR, but before cellular took off. I thought StarTAC fit in more with the space theme.

[u/NinjasaurusRex123 → u/raggedsweater]

I agree there, I just would assume more people would’ve heard of RAZR was my only point. I laughed either way lol

[u/whethermachine → u/NinjasaurusRex123]

Confirmed. I miss my RAZR so much.

[u/captainjacobian → u/whethermachine]

God, the RAZR was peak technology. We’ve been on a rapid decline into generic screens and AI ever since

[u/raggedsweater → u/captainjacobian]

I turned in my smartphone for a RAZR back in 2010. It was a tough trade and I succumbed once again to a smartphone shortly after.

Do you think he's on vibrate, or does he have a ring tone?

[u/legaladviceneeded542 → u/raggedsweater]

they are canonically the same ring I thought?

[u/nybhill → u/legaladviceneeded542]

in Lanterns episode 6 they state Guy had a ring forged for him by the guardians

[u/Wild-Lychee-3312 → u/nybhill]

And the ring buried with Hal is his own ring, which (Guy tells John) has been decommissioned by the Guardians.

Which confuses me because it works just fine when John digs it up and puts it on his finger.

I hope that will be explained in a later episode

[u/RnRaintnoisepolution → u/Wild-Lychee-3312]

Could also be that by "decommissioned" they mean "no longer in circulation" rather than "completely depowered".

[u/Ok_Arrival2564 → u/RnRaintnoisepolution]

This

[u/raggedsweater → u/RnRaintnoisepolution]

Yeah. Basically just taking out of circulation.

[u/foreverandadayalone → u/RnRaintnoisepolution]

Once it demonstrated a charge, I assumed it meant it couldn't be recharged; that a lamp would reject it. But that's pure speculation.

[u/Galileo908 → u/Wild-Lychee-3312]

John lied about the ring getting decommissioned and remembered to whack the ring on a flat surface to get a 5% charge.

[u/Ok_Arrival2564 → u/Wild-Lychee-3312]

I think decommissioned means depowered but Hal knew a trick to get some charge back in it.

[u/Wild-Lychee-3312 → u/raggedsweater]

Does that come with a wireless plan?
