My favorite mutant cameo in X-Men Origins: Wolverine was Deadpool. Not because of his bizarre transformation into Mutant XI (where did he fit those Katanas anyway?), but his smarmy, grinning alter-ego. The idea that he would come back to play the character didn’t thrill me unless they were going to do a reboot. But the news that he’ll be playing Hal Jordan, the Green Lantern is good news. He’s got a classic hero face, a self-depricating style of humor and obviously can get in shape for any costume changes. Thank goodness they didn’t go with Justin Timberlake.

About time they got Green Lantern into theaters. One of the most underrated superheroes ever. As for Ryan Reynolds, yeah, he was pretty good. I can totally see him as Green Lantern.
I'm glad they didn't go with Carrot Top.

Dang, Rickroll…I wish I'd thought of that.
