Discussion Should I watch it?

So I am a huge Green Lantern fan, Im reading the comics watching the animated series, yada yada, but I recently watched Lanterns with my grandma and we both really enjoyed it but she doesn’t like animated movies so I can’t really watch the other stuff with her. Now here is where I gotta ask, do I bite the bullet and watch the green lantern 2011 movie with my grandma, I’ve seen it, I know it sucks but maybe just maybe it will get her to watch the animated stuff and be more interested in my boy green lantern. so should I or no?

Saw it in theaters, thought it was fine I guess. Personally feel like the animated movie green lantern first flight did a much better job of adapting green lanterns origin than the live action.

I think your completely correct just for some reason my grandma despises animated material so I think this might be my only choice, I mean maybe she would give it a shot but I don’t think so for the animated stuff sadly.

I enjoyed it for what it was. It was one of my first superhero movies. Don’t go in expecting an Oscar, but I can be a fun watch. I think it’s somewhat overhated tbh

As always with these questions my answer is always yes. Your mileage will be much different to anyone else’s. You may like it. You may hate it. Either way you find out how you feel.

Watch it or don't, I don't care.
