Green Latern shines at the box office opening night -Martin Campbells most anticipated comic book hero movie of the year gets thumbs up

Green Lantern Dir. Martin Campbell and Actress Sol Romero
Green Lantern grosed $21.6 million at the box office last night: According to early figures online, the comic book-superhero was less than anticipated, but had a lot of competition. By comparison, Thor, the last comic superhero movie hit near $26 million on its opening night in May.

The media, especially the LA Times reviews (three articles on Friday) were brutal. Those reviews and a few others will not help the weekend gross receipts expected to be around $55 million.

It is a fun movie, not dark like some DC Comic Book films have been in the past. In fact you can take your children to this one. It has more going on than Spiderman, at least the first debut I saw. My predicting is when it goes global and plays in Europe and Japan, it will proove the media was wrong, again about this flick that cost around $200 million to make with Martin Campbell at the helm. I think the PG-13 film will do well, and I give it two thumbs up.



Mr. Popper’s Penguins was not even a close second with arouhd $6.4 million. That’s about what Jim Carrey’s comedy movie made three years ago with Yes Man.

Enjoy the exclusive photos below on premiere night in Hollywood with Martin Campbell and his wife Actress Sol Romero, Ryan Reynolds, Blake Lively and others. Please feel free to comment on what you thought of the movie Green Lantern, thx.

One of the most talked about superhero films gets the green light for a premiere in Hollywood Thursday and opens on this Friday. In New York the buzz is already starting to pick up with a scheduled midnight showing on tonight (Thursday) for the Green Lantern.

The movie is based on the DC comics character of the Green Lantern, and is one of WB's most promoted and early buzzed movie promises in 2011. The animation is spectacular and the storylines promises to keep Green Lantern comic book fans happy. 
Original Green Lantern
Comic Book  (Wikipedia)
The first Green Lantern (Alan Scott) was created by writer Bill Finger and artist Martin Nodell in All-American Comics #16 (July 1940).
Each Green Lantern possesses a power ring and power lantern that gives the user great control over the physical world as long as the wielder has sufficient willpower and strength to wield it. 

The ring is one of the most powerful weapons in the universe, and can be very dangerous. While the ring of the Golden Age Green Lantern (Alan Scott) was magically powered, the rings worn by all subsequent Lanterns were technological creations of the Guardians of the Universe, who granted such rings to worthy candidates. These individuals made up the intergalactic police force known as the Green Lantern Corps.

After World War II, when sales of superhero comic books generally declined, DC ceased publishing new adventures of Alan Scott as the Green Lantern.
Warner Bros. did the usual blocking off several blocks on Hollywood Blvd. at Mann's Chinese Theater location jamming traffic the whole day, so Green Lantern fans can snap photos of Martin Campbell and Ryan Reynolds, Green Lantern cast and other celebrities who show up.
Many of the Green Lantern cast members were on the black and green celebrity carpet last night. The media lines to interview Martin Campbell and other stars
was a quarter mile long in front of Mann's Chinese Theater.

A native of New York City, Bassett & her sister D'nette grew up in St. Petersburg, Florida with their mother Betty. She received her Bachelor of Arts Degree in African-American studies from Yale and also holds a Master of Fine Arts Degree from the Yale School of Drama.

Comic book fans will be watching the red carpet covered by most entertainment tabloid TV shows and trades. This also means tourists will get to see those masked men in tight uniforms getting their pictures taken on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. 
Economists are predicting that Hollywood and Tourism are leading economic indicators to turn the economy around, so we'll see if Green Lantern movie help does the trick. Two thumbs up.
