Yep. Turning John Stewart into a Yellow Lantern in everything but name is much more than just "one insanely particular version of individual characters." It's a complete rejection of everything that has ever existed about Green Lanterns.

From the post: "The whole point of the show is defying the path that is set before you..."
The whole point of the show is JOHN defying the path that is set before him. He can't be working for The Man and The System because he's a Strong Black Man who says "aks" (sometimes), so screw the all-powerful Guardians. This is BlackpantherLantern and he does what he wants without white people telling him what to do. He has an un-sanctioned ring, his own charging lantern, his own oath and his own lantern color.
I have no idea how that fits with the lore, but I'm pretty sure a legit GL wouldn't be scared (I thought that was a no-no) of a ringless John Stewart like bowlcut was so I'm not sure the lore matters much.

Yep. Completely accurate.

The people who made this show should never find work again. All of them. They injected viewpoints completely incompatible with a civilized society throughout the entire season.

Oh come on, everybody's ok with a little hysterical murder every now & then.
Nicholson wasn't wrong. "I think of a man, and I take away reason and accountability."

"Lanterns" writer Tom King on Hal Jordan's murder: "We had a big debate. It was like, 'Does Kerry Kane get punished?' Nothing could punish her more than the fact that she did that thing and she has to live with it. There's no, like, jail isn't worse than that."
First time I've seen this Tom King guy talk. He seems just as fricked in the head as the other writers.

Fell asleep 15 minutes in 
I'll finish at some point.
Not reading the thread to avoid spoilers but my guess is the board hates it. Hopefully I'm wrong.

No spoilers from me, but you're not wrong. It was an abysmal finale to a horrible show.

“There’s, no, like jail isn’t worse than that”
Unless it’s Hal going to jail for trying to save people. This also make no sense, “he takes the blame”? He’s a green lantern, this alien manhunter attacked earth using satellites nobody knew about with the tech that exists in this universe? There’s no municipal court that’s going to try him, that’s so stupid it could only be in this show. There’s no way he’d be held accountable anyway unless the court is packed with evil Manhunter cultist which wouldn’t happen because again, the scale and nature of the event. This show is retarded

Ok ok..
I enjoyed the show for the most part. A little "who dunnit?". A little superhero stuff. A little backstory on the Lantern that will move on to be in the Justice League.
And well, the end was just nuts. Really cant understand what happened? The sheriff lover killed Hal? Hal was stuck in jail to end like that? No proper funeral for Hal? Hal was rebuilt just to die? The plant survived fire? Unbelievable.
And now here is me grasping for something.
This is the plan. Hal gets revived , feels the disrespect (with a little coaxing from Sinestro), and becomes one of the main baddies in the 2nd big crossover DC movie.
I mean.. I hope there is a plan.

James Gunn has literally said if you die in the DCU, you stay dead
What a joke. And the acting in the death scene

I came here to read opinions about the finale and instead got 2 retards arguing for 5 pages.

> The Batman part II delayed to 2087
