OK, so someone here needs to learn their comics history. Especially superheroes in film. Justice said “there was finally ONE black super hero ‘, come on Blade is a marvel comic property, he has three movies to his credit. and let’s not forget WarMachines inclusion in the next Iron Man film Jim Rhodes sure ain’t caucasion. I’m all for equal time, but the coloring of certain propertires is Bulls**t. Jim West, the Honeymooners, etc. I’ve always said if you don’t like the way things are, it’s better just to sit and bitch about them than actually try to change anything. Wait no that’s not right, it’s just what everybody does.

That's fucked up to change the character from black to white why for obvious reasond. But in my opinion if anyone pays close attention to the recent cartoon Justice League you would be able to see that the Green Latern as John Stewart brings more character to the Justice League and depth plus it brings more realism. I mean really the most powerhul superhero league of all time and all of its members are white come on man its 2009 We have a black president

I still don't think this movie will ever come out. You can't make a Justice League movie without Batman and Superman. Fans know Christian Bale and Brandon Routhe and those two characters and neither will likely be part of a new Justice league movie. And if they try to recast they will piss a lot of people off.

I agree with you as well. It's not a matter of race or about Common…it's about the origins of Green Lantern which for the fans has to start with Hal Jordan.

I'm not upset. In fact I agree with you. I am a big supporter of Common and think if he has the decent acting chops and more lines then Wanted and Street Kings he could pull off John Stewart but I agree Green Lantern origins story then you gotta go all Hal Jordan

I can't believe you people are upset. First of all, that atrocity that was George Millers “Justice League” was basically a rush job to get a tentpole film out before the strike. Which is why Common was even considered because his quota is tiny. Secondly, this is a Green Lantern origin movie…Hal was the first “real” Green Lantern on Earth and if you knew that, then you can't possibly argue for John Stewart to be the feature character. Not to mention we barely know anything about his origin as Green Lantern…Hal was the obvious choice.
