       Is that you, David Niven?
     Is that you, David Niven?

    I don’t think Mark Strong fully understands what he’s getting into, playing Sinestro in the GREEN LANTERN movie.  When he talked to USA Today recently, he seemed to only be thinking about the villains’ personality and what he’ll look…

    “…for anybody who’s familiar with the Green Lantern and the origin story, the film closely follows the early comics. Sinestro starts out as Hal Jordan’s mentor, slightly suspicious and not sure of him because obviously Hal is the first human being who’s made into a Green Lantern. He’s certainly very strict and certainly unsure of the wisdom of Hal becoming a Green Lantern. He is a military guy but isn’t immediately bad. It’s the kind of person he is that lends himself to becoming bad over the course of the comics being written, but initially he’s quite a heroic figure… That widow’s peak and thin mustache was for some reason originally based on David Niven, and Hal Jordan was based on Paul Newman Obviously at the time, whoever was doing the original comics must have looked at them as guys doing very well in the film industry, and based those characters on them. So I would like to do justice to the Sinestro that was conceived for the comic books.”

    Strong ISN’T aware that when he squares off with Green Lantern this summer, it’ll be a cage match with GL tagging out to none other than the immortal Hulk Hogan. What’s the galactic master of fear gonna do when the 32-inch pythons and all the powers of Hulkamania RUN WILD ON 'EM!?!!?
     
     

    == TEASER ==
     

     

       Step aside, Adam Strange.
     Step aside, Adam Strange.
    The Hulkster has thrown down the gauntlet! And we already know that the he's already has some excellent experience brawling with intergalactic bad guys. I can easily see him carrying Sinestro up to the top turnbuckle for a flying power bomb that would put an end to the 50 years of villainy no power ring or universal Guardian could stop before.  I think the next question is who would Sinestro be tagging out to, if this were a fair match? It really is no question, actually.   The man has proven his ability to instill great fear on too many occasions to number.   Why, even the “immortal” Hulk Hogan has stated his terror of the man. I’m talking, of course, about Jake “The Snake” Roberts.

    You know, now that you’ve all got me going here (and, yes, YOU are responsible for this) I think it’d be worthy to discuss which wrestlers would join which Corps during Blackest Night. We’ve Roberts for fear, and Hogan already leads his own "corps" of prayers and vitamin-powered Hulkamaniacs (the emotional spectrum they draw from is Hulkamania) It obviously follows that the Million Dollar Man should be an Orange Lantern, right? If you question that if the man has enough avarice for the job, look no further than below…  

      

    I figure the Undertaker would be a Black Lantern. That’s just a GIVEN isn’t it? But what about the Star Sapphires, the Blue Lantern Corps, the Indigo Tribe and, now, the White Lanterns? I want some names people, and feel free to dispute the choices I’ve already made, but you better make a damn good argument as to why my choices are wrong. However, the one, indisputable choice is for the Red Lantern Corps. Wish upon the stars in the Destrucity, because after one look at my favorite wrestler in action below, you’ll know there is no question that this man exhibits more rage than Atrocitus could ever muster…

    Completely agree. I don't get what's going on in this Hulk Hogan/Sinestro thing, but I do love that song.

    lol That's what I was thinking too. 
     
    Red -  Umaga, King Kong Bundy, Randy Orton
    Orange -  Million Dollar Man, Vince McMahon, Ric Flair
    Sinestro - Kane, Undertaker, Big Daddy V, Boogeyman (to a far lesser extent)
    Green - Hulk Hogan, John Cena, maybe Kurt Angle
    Blue -  Rey Mysterio, Shawn Michaels
    Indigo - Referees, Jim Ross, Linda McMahon 
    Sapphire - The Divas

    I posted a list like this on CBR a few month ago. Just using late 80s-early 90s WWF wrestlers Warrior, DiBiase, and Undertaker were the hands-down easy picks. I had the Big Bossman as a yellow lantern. He was a scary dude when he first debuted. What's scarier than a big, evil prison guard with a nightstick? Don't drop the soap! Indigo Tribe? I choose Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka (no one can figure out what he's saying, either). Maybe Ricky Steamboat as a blue lantern. Bret Hart seems like a good candidate for the Green Lantern Corps. Star Sapphire is a tough pick in the wrestling world; Miss Elizabeth from circa late 80s- early 90s would be as good a pick as any. To me Hulk Hogan is the closest thing to a white lantern I can think of.

    I don't get what this is supposed to mean. Is Hogan gonna be in the film? Are Mark Strong and Ryan Reynolds gonna be on WWE? I don't get it. 
    But now I think about it, couldn't some of you guys see Hulk Hogan as Kilowog? 
     

    I can see a bit of the Hulkster in him.

    I think Kane would be a better Red Lantern and the Undertaker should be a Sinestro, since he makes people scared s**tless all the time and plus, he isn't really dead.Torrie Wilson could be a Star Sapphire and in my opinion, Steve Austin is the best Green Lantern candidate.
