Go see it. Go. Right now. It was brilliant, and that's coming from someone who's actually read some of the comics and aren't a complete and total n00b. It stayed surprisingly close to the original story and the animation blew my mind. If you get a chance to see it, go. Go, go, go.

Aside from changing the main character from black to white, they stayed close to the story?

There's been multiple humans apart of the Green Lantern Corps. This movie's about Hal Jordan in paticular .I'm not entirely familiar with all of them but chances are one of them was probably black.

Edit: Yeah, there has been. His name is Jon Stewart I think.

Disclaimer: I grew up in Holland, where Comic Book Heroes aren't as pervasive as in America. We knew Superman and Batman from their movies, the Hulk from it's sixties TV show, Spiderman and X-men from their respective cartoons.... so my viewpoint might be different.

You're talking about the animated version, right? And.... I hate to slam that, because from what I've seen, it's an epic series (Wally West owns you all!) but Jon Stewart's inclusion kinda felt like 'Oh man.... we need a black dude in here.....'

Er.... I'm planning on seeing it, but some people whose opinion I can find myself in SLAMMED it, so I'm a bit weary.... but then again, I'm one of those weirdos that found enjoyment in Revenge of the Fallen (Not to mention Green Lantern comes out in August over here....)

But still, Green Lantern concept? I like it. An Alien Police force, physical representations of several emotion trough colors, rings that can turn willpower into matter..... there's a lot of potential here.

I think Green Lantern is one of those hate it or love it movies. I loved it, the next person might hate it. All my friends that have seen it so far loved it. I don't know. You sort of have to choose for yourself, rather than listen to the opinion of others or read reviews.

Probably.... I'm just insecure. That, and I have a tight budget and waaaay to many movies I want to see this summer. (Lessee... there's Kung Fu Panda 2, the final Harry Potter, Captain America, Green Lantern... and maybe Troll Hunter if I can catch it somewhere. And that's just the ones I planned in advance.)

Ryan Reynolds is a better actor than a lot of people give him credit for.
