Linterna Verde: La serie animada

So much better than the mediocre at best movie anyhow. While not one of my favourite animated shows, I found Green Lantern: The Animated Series very interesting. I didn't think the animation was that bad actually, it is simplistic of course but with the fluid colours and backgrounds they do have a slickness too. The only disappointment for me in this regard was the rather goofy character design of Zox. The music is very cool in its intro and is atmospherically haunting in the background scoring. The writing is superb, it is humorous and in a subtle way, intelligent and also has some thought-provoking depth. The premise showed some great promise, and it is more than lived up to in the exciting and very well-written story lines. The characters at least do engage, Hal Jordan does take some getting used to and the guardians' rather petty personalities may also leave some people cold, but the villains(while not on the same level as Sinestro) are fun and I like Ganphet, definitely the most likable of the guardians to me. The voice acting is brooding and dynamic in equal measure. In conclusion, I do love this show, it is not perfect but the potential was there and it has met that potential and I do hope it continues to do so. 9/10 Bethany Cox

First, let me say that I am not at all a Green Lantern fan. I've never read the comics, and the character has never appealed to me before. I am, however, a huge fan of Bruce Timm and the DCAU (DC Animated Universe). Batman: The Animated Series, Batman Beyond, and Justice League/Unlimited are my favorite animated shows of all time. BTAS, in particular, had a huge influence on me as I started watching it at a very early age as a child in the 90s.

When I first heard about Green Lantern: The Animated Series, I wasn't interested at all. Then when I heard that Bruce Timm was the executive producer, I thought it might be worth a try. I forgot about the series for a time, until I stumbled upon it again on Amazon. They had the complete series on Blu-ray. I read a couple reviews, and on a whim I decided to purchase it. The price was excellent for getting the complete series on Blu-ray, but I was really just taking a chance because I had never viewed an episode or talked to anyone who had. That was possibly the best Blu-ray purchase I have ever made!

This series is fantastic. I went into it pretty skeptical and not at all a Green Lantern fan. All I really knew about GL was from what I'd seen on JL/JLU. The writing and dialogue is very sharp, the plot is solid, the characters are fleshed out and well developed, the music is epic, the voice cast is incredible, and everything is really top notch! The cg animation and the designs are beautiful! I wasn't sure if I would really like the cg, but it really grows on you and I have really come to appreciate it.

All this to say, if you haven't seen this yet, please give it a shot. I'm not certain but it seems like this show is under-appreciated and I have no idea why. Maybe people simply don't know about it. If you like any of Bruce Timm's previous work, you will LOVE this show. Its maturity level and overall tone is right up there with the greats like BTAS, BB, and JL/JLU. This is seriously, one of the best animated series of all time!

So, how is it that Warner Brothers produces massive piles of steaming crap whenever they try a live-action film version of their comics, BUT...

Their animated series are better than 99% of ANYTHING on television or at the movies (and yes, that includes the Marvel universe stuff, including "The Avengers", which I loved).

Seriously; my wife and I just finished binge-watching the "Green Lantern: The Animated Series", and we were absolutely blown away.

Why the hell doesn't Warner Brothers let Bruce Timm (producer) do all their live-action stuff?

The linked storyline of the two seasons - 26 episodes, total - was epic, exciting and completely satisfying. The scripts were excellent, the characterizations superb. If this had been a primetime show, I would never have missed a single episode.

Thank God for Netflix!

Seriously, if you're a fan of the superhero genre, or if you just like intelligent story lines, good dialogue from funny to moving (and beyond) and a seamless, fulfilling story arc telling a truly epic adventure, do not miss this gem.

It's not a diamond in the rough; it's a perfect emerald.

The new Green Lantern: The Animated series, brought to life by uberscribe Bruce Timm, definitely has the goods.

It has good writing, a decent premise and animation, great voice acting and good character portrayal.

The show's CGI animation is actually not that bad, it grew on me. Hal Jordan's character seems a bit off here, to be honest. Instead of being stiff and serious, he's pretty much a space cowboy. It does feel a bit off, but I'm getting used to it.

All in all, the show has great writing and a strong premise. I really enjoy the show and will be glad to see it run at the very least a couple more seasons.

This series and the animated direct-to-video movie "Green Lantern: First Flight" got me to love the superhero, the Green Lantern. I had looked at episode snippets on YouTube out of curiosity, and I really wanted to see the series before purchasing the DVD sets.

I had watched the first thirteen episodes during the week, and I thought it was an awesome series. It's also a fantastic depiction of DC Comics' interplanetary superhero. I loved Season One's arc "The Red Lantern War," in which Hal Jordan and Kilowog travelled through the far reaches of space in a prototype spacecraft called The Interceptor. Atrocitus and his Red Lantern Corps were killing Green Lantern Corps members.

You know, it's a shame that they didn't produce another season. So anyway, I really love this series.
