    Depending on how you look at this, it may not be big news.  According to the Hollywood Reporter, Warner Bros. and director Martin Campbell will be shooting "Green Lantern" at Fox Studios Australia in Sydney.  The movie is set to have a budget of $150 million. 

    Pre-production will begin in July and filming should start in November.  That means they will have a year to complete once filming begins since the movie is scheduled to be released on December 17, 2010.  Doesn't seem like a lot of time.  Perhaps a lot of the special effects work will begin before filming?  There isn't a cast yet (that we know of).  The good news is if you're in the area, 500 jobs will be created for the movie.  Start working on your resume now.

    Amen to that King Saturn! Green Lanternhas got to be the nextIron Man. It has to be fun. It has to be positive and upbeat. It can't be either Superman Returns or like either of the Batman movies. New Frontier showed that Hal and Barry are on the same level as Superman and Batman.

    I think the key to success for this movie is a villian whom makes the movie, apart from needing a good story and good action and what not.  This is movie is gonna need a villian who you love to hate.

    this success of this movie could make GL replace Wonder Woman as part of the Big Three. In my mind Hal already is.

    Well I think it's awesome that its coming forward but I'd rather they push the release date back and make a good movie than rush the whole thing and release a piece of crap.

    It's looking good so far, an accomplished director, a decent budget, more than the first X-Men movie was made on if I'm not mistaken and a definite release date. DC seem to be taking this seriously, I'm quitely optimistic. Fingers crossed they get the story and casting right but like I said, it's looking good so far. My votes still for David Boreanaz for Hal Jordan if anybody from DC is reading this ; )

    This movie really needs to shine so that DC can expand into their universe of other characters. They have so many great characters like Flash, Green Lantern, Aquaman, Green Arrow, Black Canary and so on. As long as these great characters have been around it's time for them to get some more recognition in the mainstream.
