Ilia Gofman I'm a bit lost for words, this Green lantern animated series was amazing, really well made. I thought the film was OK but this animated series was great. It's just a shame it was a bit short at only 26 short episodes, but this is a bit like chocolate truffles with either alcohol or fruit centre like strawberry, which are small and expensive but so much more enjoyable than any other bigger chocolates. I'm 30 years old now but I've still enjoyed this animated kids show from every point of view. In particular I've enjoyed the dialogue with it's occasional seriousness and technical words. That makes this show appeal to the older audience as well as even more so for the younger audience.I have to compare this animated show to others. A lot of other animated shows are boring mainly because of their dialogue, that sounds like it was made to appeal to only bichy little spoilt brat teenagers. So even though most kids shows have some of that, this show was much more "grown up" from that point of view. I hope that there will be more animated shows like this one.
hatboxdragon My first experience with this series was catching the occasional episode on free-to-air TV, and it honestly struck me as kind of stupid. But tempted by the art design, I sat and watched the series consistently and got hooked.Off in the Frontier Zone, someone is killing Green Lanterns. Hal Jordan, Earth's Green Lantern, and his colleague Kilowog discover the Red Lantern threat and are tasked by the Guardians of Oa with gathering intelligence. On their ship the Interceptor, run by an AI (dubbed "Aya" by Hal), they start their return to Oa, meetings friends and foes along the way. But the Guardians have not told them everything ...I love the art design and music for this series, but it's the characters that kept me watching. Hal, the maverick pilot who is always ready to accept people and give them a chance; Kilowog, gruff and by-the-book, but noble at heart; Aya, a genuine personality who develops a mind of her own; and Razer, a Red Lantern who makes the journey from despair to hope. The voice actors are well cast and genuinely good, able to make moments of drama or comic relief equally believable.The story arc for each half of the series is broken up by some standalone stories, but many elements that seemed to be over and done with are brought together in later episodes. While the overarching plot is gripping, some of the episodes along the way are less strong as you might expect in a series. There are quite a few clichés and plot holes, it's true, but for me they are well and truly outweighed by the strengths of this series. One thing that particularly struck me with the scriptwriting was the adult approach taken. Strong emotions are in play here, sometimes justified, sometimes not; and while there are times when the characters make good decisions, at others times they don't. It's refreshing, and realistic, too, to see characters struggling with situations where there are no easy answers. You don't have to be a Green Lantern fan to enjoy this, as the scriptwriters did a good job of making the core concepts of the Guardians-Green Lanterns easy to pick up.If there is a message from this series, it is that hope is never wasted; anger has its value; and love and friendship matter most of all. I'm not a Green Lantern follower, so I can't say whether this is a good addition to the history/concept or not. What I can say is that I love this particular version and I am genuinely gutted that no more episodes will be made.
Istiaque Hossain Ullash the idea of CGI superhero animated series is new, all thanks goes to DC to try something like this, and i am not impressed with the decision of canceling the series. they should think out of the box more often, as they have some good competitors on the market. the series was good, better than expected, a good storyline, better animations, better voice actors and good action sequence, what else you want apart from these? storyline was very good, it can be compared with the of 7 voyages of sinbad, as they visit one after another planet and make something cool. there are many things left to show , so i hope DC will consider making a second season, and it will be a great pleasure to see a CGI justice league series, though it will be costly, so they can make the animated movies with CGI, it will be wise decision to join them with DC cinematic universe too. hope they will take the right decision for HAL JORDAN.
Johnathan Green Green Lantern: The Animated Series has quickly become one of my favorite television shows. I heard about it when the fan-base had just found out about the potential cancellation that it is facing, and the video clip attached persuaded me to give the show a chance. It has more than proved its worth in cartoon networks programs, and it has achieved so much in its first season alone. The plot and character development have such depth and meaning, and still manage to teach kids the moral lessons that all shows targeted towards children strive to achieve. It has taught lessons on second chances, about ignoring differences and embracing the similarities we share. Hal Jordan took Razer as a prisoner, and treated him with compassion despite the destruction and pain he causes as a member of the Red Lantern Corps. Razer grows from his pain and although he still struggles, he tries to make himself better, and has a story everyone can relate to. A story about falling down, about not getting things right the first time, or even the next time or the time after that. A story about growing up and moving forward, which is a positive them amongst all the crew and even the minor characters. This is a show that can have such a positive impact on kids, and people of all ages. The fans are struggling much like Razer, to keep their show alive for another season. For a second chance, for a show that has so much potential and such passionate viewers. For a second season that can make a difference.
