So, apparently ryan reynolds has been cast as hal Jordan for the GL movie. Like, along with deadpool. This will bring his superhero role tally up to three. Too much? Or just seizing a high commodity?

I can't take Reynolds serious as Hal Jordan. I think you can only play Deadpool AND a straight conservative with responsibility-angst and an iron will if you are bi-polar :shifty

I could have seen him as Flash, though.

Whether or not he burns himself out is up to him - he doesn't have to be in all the moves at once, or one right after another. But he has chosen to do so.

I just hope he manages to get through all the demands without going a bit loopy. Or get sick.

I don't know about too thin. Remeber that one year when Jude Law was all over the place? Maybe Ryan Reynolds is going to have something like that going on.

But I'd like to see him in some more stuff. I've only seen about three of his movies, and I've enjoyed him so far (especially as Wade/Deadpool. I finally went to see Wolverine!). He's an excellent actor, hilarious, and I suppose he's good looking as well.

On a side note: He's not going to be Flash, then? And, excuse me for not knowing, who is Hal Jordan?

He's a Green Lantern, and I have to agree with Freak. I can't see Reynolds as Hal Jordan.

yeah, different universes is okay. But to play to leading characters in the same continuity. That is... what is the word? blasphemy? ridiculous? I don't know... fill in your appropriate word.

Darn. He would be way too cool as Flash. . . but I wish they'd just leave him with Deadpool. you know?

And I thought there was only one Green Lantern. Am I missing a bit of important information?

THere are a whole bunch of Green Lanterns, like a whole squadron of them. But that's beside the point. The actual point is made clear in this well done debate: Link
