In a universe as vast as it is mysterious, a small but powerful force has existed for centuries. Protectors of peace and justice, they are called the Green Lantern Corps. A brotherhood of warriors sworn to keep intergalactic order, each Green Lantern wears a ring that grants him superpowers. But when a new enemy called Parallax threatens to destroy the balance of power in the Universe, their fate and the fate of Earth lie in the hands of their newest recruit, the first human ever selected: Hal Jordan.

Hal is a gifted and cocky test pilot, but the Green Lanterns have little respect for humans, who have never harnessed the infinite powers of the ring before. But Hal is clearly the missing piece to the puzzle, and along with his determination and willpower, he has one thing no member of the Corps has ever had: humanity. With the encouragement of fellow pilot and childhood sweetheart Carol Ferris (Blake Lively), if Hal can quickly master his new powers and find the courage to overcome his fears, he may prove to be not only the key to defeating Parallax…he will become the greatest Green Lantern of all.

Now that they're showing more finalized shots of the suit, I'm more hyped for this one.

I wouldn't put my hopes up. This is PROMO ART. The final look at the suit is already in the trailers. That. Is. It. Full fake-looking CGI mode ON. This is like the PROMO ART on Superman Returns (ugh).
Case in point, see this Superman Returns Cinefex cover that's taken from one of the PROMO ART.

The GL suit I'm afraid wont look this real.

I'm with you about 50% pal. Promo art always looks much better than the actual film suits. Once you add movement to it, it completely changes the visual quality.

But, from what I've heard the film's CG should be quite better than what we saw in the first trailer. The guys at Sony Imageworks (bleh) have been getting their asses handed to them because of the poor reception from the trailer.

Have to say these are wonderful pics.... Feel better knowing that they're still working and tweaking on the costume. This could be mediocre or it could be epic. Hoping for the latter !

The lantern emblem on the Chest will definitely be different, I think the final product will be more of a projection and less of a physical part of the suit, which I like better myself.

I showed these pictures to my wife last night and she said, and i quote, "Wow, Ryan Reynolds is really starting to look like Hal Jordan now". I couldn't agree more. I want another trailer!!
