Shaq@ShaqMaadWolfHoly hell…. Probably my FAVORITE episode of #Lanterns All the generational curse nods aside This…is the epic, weird, space shit DC is capable of…and it only scratches a SMALL surface (not a pure 1 to 1 adaptation and it doesn’t NEED to be) 9.5 out of 10 for me.13d

Gunner Dobbins (Vox Machina era)@GunnerDobbinsAnyways, I think it’s safe to say it at this point: I do not care for Lanterns. GREAT actors especially Chandler good chemistry, good Hal, altogether good show mostly, but what I like about GL is so far removed from it I can’t gel with it, sorry.13d

jannik@Goldenstories2Releasing the trailer for the LANTERNS finale ahead of October 4th proves HBO and James Gunn succeeded in taking a risky, crime-procedural approach to DC's cosmic lore. ​Instead of relying on CGI skybeams from Episode 1, they built pure suspense and now the finale is primed to payoff every single clue dropped in Rushville.🔥13d

Tyler F Martin@tytheanimatorI feel like I’m living on another planet, like there’s something wrong with me, because there is genuinely no way y’all are enjoying Lanterns as a Green Lantern show. As a show, maybe. But swashbuckling? Galactic space-cop epic Green Lantern with unimaginable constructs, wars and scale? Surely I’m missing something 🥴13d
MaceAhWindu@MaceAhWinduSomeone on here said that the stupid #Lanterns takes on social media are proof that we’re not ready for projects that don’t hold your hand and explain every action in detail but I disagree. I think it’s proof that there need to be more projects like this so that mfs can learn.13d
