First off, everone seems to be complaining about the mask. Saying it's too curved and looks like a quick photoshop job. Some of that's true, but I don't mind it so much.
The one thing I'm not liking is the sort of muscle/living costume feel i get from it. Like it's tacing a strange alien musclartur on the person's body. In the comics, GL's uniform is created from the ring. Maybe that's what I'm not liking. It dosen't feel like a uniform for an itergalactic police force, as much as it does some strange more nature based hero.
Still, I like the glowing chest emblem, the ring, and how it seems the costume will glow with power. I want to hold off on judgement, because really right now I'm fan boy picking. I'll still see this movie on opening day-and yeees, I will be wearing one of my Green Lantern t-shirts. Maybe the Kyle Rayner one just to see if I get any reactions from the Hal fan boys.
What do you think about it?
