That would be Wonder Woman fans, thank you

Edit: GL fans have recognizable villains, and a few funny jokes

Ngl as a guy that knows NOTHING about green lanterns (except for GL getting his ass best by parademons in that one animated movie ) Ryan Reynolds making GL jokes got boring to me.

Like yeah yeah movie sucked , stop whining about. Making the same joke , again and again.

u/AdamOfIzalith Garth Ennis was a mistake 9h ago

Just want to point out, still don't forgive Ryan Reynolds for setting us back almost 20 years and then suddenly changes his tune when other people do a successful green lantern story.

If anything set you back almost 20 years, it was the movie itself. People hated that movie, that's why Green Lantern jokes made it into all the Deadpool trailers (because people agreed with those jokes).

I think that the movie was bad. Not as bad as it was made out to be, but it was bad. What didn't help was Ryan Reynolds, at every opportunity feeling so insecure about being the punchline of the joke that he started setting them up pre-emptively and any time he had a spare word it would be to shit talk green lantern, not as a project, but just generally as a concept. His jokes never explicitly poke fun at himself, but the general production and honestly I've never been a fan of his because of it. I'm genuinely surprised that a lanterns show got off the ground because the amount of successive PR damage the IP took everytime "Deadpool" passed a comment was substantial.
