Green Lantern: Les Chevaliers de l'Emeraude

This is WB and DC doing a little warm-up for the big budget movie on Green Lantern that is coming out this month.

As always, the Animation Team probably has a better grasp on the characters and settings than the suits in Hollywood ever do.

The Green Lantern Corps faces an inter-dimensional threat, and while they wait for the final confrontation, they tell stories of the greatest accomplishments of the Corps.

The movie is probably at its weakest in the fact that they have Nathan Fillian of "Firefly" fame doing the voice of Hal Jordan (Why isn't he doing it in the Live Action version? Why?) but he is only involved in the wrap around story that keeps the plot moving from one section to the next.

The stories themselves are quite good, though. Each one a little gem, even if a bit predictable even for the fan who is familiar with this universe.

After loving the sublime Batman: Under the Red Hood earlier in the year, I decided to give another DC straight-to-DVD animated film a watch and I'm glad I did.

The plot is told as pretty much a frame story of episodic flashbacks of the Green Lantern's past. All I found interesting and easily accessible for a newbie, like myself. There were a few giggles at some of the silliness in the GL universe but that's inherent in the conceit itself, anyway.

The voice acting was mostly strong, the animation had some spectacularly awe-inspiring scenes, the score too was good and it importantly had heart to back up all the spectacle.

Overall, possibly the best superhero film this year in terms of consistency and I like this brave team that's sort of like an intergalactic police force-7/10.

The six Green Lantern stories in a single animation film. Kilowog and Mogo are the coolest. Thanks to HBO Asia for giving us this.

I recently watched Green Lantern: Emerald Knights (2011) on MAX. The plot revolves around a new recruit who is mentored by Hal Jordan to prepare for an impending threat to the universe. Jordan emphasizes the importance of understanding the history of the Green Lantern Corps as a lesson for facing future challenges.

Co-directed by three directors, the film features the voices of Nathan Fillion (The Suicide Squad), Jason Isaacs (The Patriot), Elisabeth Moss (The Handmaid's Tale), Henry Rollins (Feast), and Arnold Vosloo (The Mummy).

This should have been called the Green Lantern Corps. While each story is well-written and enjoyable to follow, the first and last ones stand out as particularly strong. Witnessing the origins of the Green Lanterns was fun, and the animation style is solid, capturing the essence of the comic books. Additionally, the inclusion of a diverse range of characters from the universe adds depth to the narrative, with some surprising twists towards the end.

In conclusion, Green Lantern: Emerald Knight is a commendable addition to the DC animated universe. I would rate it between 6.5-7/10 and strongly recommend it.

In the midst of preparing the Green Lantern Corps in the face of threats from hiding enemies, Hal Jordan tells the story of the Green Lantern members against a new recruit, Arisia.

This film is not part of the sequel to the film Green Lantern: First Flight. This film does take character designs from previous films, ranging from the designs of Sinestro, Hal Jordan, Kilowog, Tomar, Abin Sur, Guardians to Arisia itself. Overall, this film does have a much better visual appearance than the previous film. Green Lantern: Emerald Knights presents more stories from Green Lantern Coprs members, such as Kilowog, Laira, Mogo and Abin Sur rather than discussing resistance to Krona, the antagonist in this film. Krona itself became a warmer and sweetener of stories only. Without action-packed resistance and not too much trouble. Also resisted with quick and precise strength. There wasn't much to see Hal Jordan's action in action or anything else. The stories told did not have any influence on the main conflict, namely against Krona. This film tries to give an introduction to other iconic characters who often appear in Green Lantern stories. Not only from the four characters, but the story of the beginning of the first ceirta existence of the Green Lantern Corps itself. Naturally, this film is not a sequel and looks different from the previous film.
