Costume.

If all three make enough money then I guarantee they will make a 4th
 
I keep hoping that is a mid transformation shot and the ribs will come together to form a solid suit. I really am not feeling the alien bio look at all.
I like the alien bio look,but will definately reserve judgement until I see it in action things may change when its on big screen.

Remember the first picture when so many complained how it looked like muscles?
 
It still does , that's at least how my brain interprets it
 
The suit's line pattern is suppose to be based on human anatomy.
 
I still do wonder if they really needed to cgi the suit. This costume seems perfectly feasible to make. The man seems to me to be the only thing that required cgi due to how it moves with the face, but that could have been a good prosthetic job.

If they would have made a real costume for him it would have to have a zipper on it. That wouldn't be right since Green Lantern's costume doesn't have a zipper. Come off it guy, Spider-Man, Iron Man, and even Daredevil had CGI costumes for at least their action scenes. There is nothing wrong with using CGI. In fact it makes films better to watch.

Come on now Dnno1, you know movie magic would've hid that zipper. :funny:

It was the approach chosen to take, considering the suit is a construct made of light and energy. It was weird at first, based on the early pictures but now that we're seeing the more completed look in recent trailers, I'm totally digging it.

It could have been done with prosthetics.
 
are there any moer pics from teh book from the suit?

are there bigger pics?

thanks

They used prosthetics for some of he characters in the film (Sinestro and Hector Hammond). I don't think you were going to get the great skin-tight effect that you are getting with Green Lantern using prosthesis. You'll never be able to get movement of the stomach muscles without spending a lot of money on robotics or something like that. Like I said before, CGI was used for films like "Spider-Man", and Iron Man and they did very well at the BO. Stop hating that effect.

I know, I'm with you on that.

But remember the complaining that came with the first picture? There was even a picture with bacon something something.
 
Sweet jesus the CGI has improved ten-fold in the new tv spots. Hal's suit that looked like a bad photoshop job months ago is just awe-striking to look at now.
 
so when hal gets ko'd does his suit go away? when it's on does he have to keep focus to keep it on? or once he slips the ring on the suit is on till he takes it off?

thats really the best reason you can come up with for why they need to have a completely CGI costume? a zipper?
:doh:
 
I think, like IM, for the majority of action scenes the suit should be CGI. But then in scenes like the one when he's talking to Blake Lively or the one when he was showing his friend (I know right?!) they shouldve had an actual suit
 
You would lose the notion that the suit is a construct. In addition, you would lose the remarkable skin tight effect that flaunts Reynolds animated abs (something I believe is to be one of the major selling points of the film to the female demographic). The CGI costume is a great idea and is only a normal progression of what how costumes have been treated in the most successful CBM's over the past decade.
