I wanted to be impressed. But the trailer left something to be desired.
Its like it couldn't make up its mind if it was serious or a comedy. Some of the character acting was horrible (not him especially but some of the coworkers). At the end when he is showing the costume to his friend. Beyond the obvious CG below his neck. They made his waste TOO thin. The only way someone would look that skinny is with all the fat and skin cutaway.

the cg still has until just before next summer to polish up. I'm sure it will all look fine.

I'm afraid the super hero movies are being milked dry. This trailer was really disappointing

Haters gonna hate! I dug it. 
I was never a Green Lantern fan (always was a spidey kid). Maybe that's why I got saw this and said "yeah sure, looks fun."
Are those of you that dislike the trailer disappointed because you're heavily invested Green Lantern fans, or are you looking at it as you would any other movie?
I enjoy Ryan Reynolds' humor and delivery, and I'll be watching this movie, regardless of the reviews. That being said, I'll most likely wait until video release, unless I hear that the CG is a "must see" on the big screen.
I say keep the super hero movies coming! ...but leave Spidey alone now

I think it looks like it'll be bad. Not awful, just bad. As good as the first Hulk at best. As good as X-Men 3.

Wow, that looks like it'll be right up there with Batman and Robin.

The ending where he shows his friend the suit came so far out of left field that I couldn't help but laugh.
As for the rest? Eh, whatever. Another super hero movie.

I could do without the silly jokes. But other than that, doesn't look too bad.

Why am I the only one laughing? Did you miss the pink Power Rangers villain? Hilariously amateurish compositing? Crummy animation? The lousy writing?
Not even a little chuckle?

Sinestro wasn't a 'bad guy' at first. He was the greatest Lantern until Hal came around.

If you can't do better than Iron Man then maybe it shouldn't be done? I'm a pretty big Green Lantern fan but I've been hiding my fandom under a rock ever since this was green lit, mostly because the market has reached peak saturation and I'm just waiting for the backlash.
It might be good, it looks like rental at worst. It will probably be better than Hulk or at least I hope so. I'll try to keep my mind open until it disappoints.

^^THIS... I don't plan on sitting through the Fantastic Four reboot, The Hulk reboot, or the Spiderman reboot, Xmen reboot, etc.. etc..

That was pretty underwhelming.

The attempt at comedy is very bland :/
I think it will be 'ok', but so far, I am not excited for this.

To be fair, I don't think that they could possibly do worse with the Fantastic Four reboot than they did with the original. The two Fantastic Four movies they made were...just awful. The Hulk movie they made with Edward Norton was better than Ang Lee's effort, but still not exceptional.
I'm not sure about Green Lantern yet. I think that the female supporting lead in that trailer was terrible. (her acting) I'm worried they might be going a little too strong with the comedy on this one. I have no problem with Hal Jordan being a bit of a wise-ass. He's a fighter pilot, you expect that sort of attitude from someone confident enough to fly a jet. But what the hell is up with his sidekick/friend? Green Lantern doesn't need a "buddy" to share his secret with. He's part of an intergalactic peace keeping force, and has tons of other Green Lanterns that he can kick around with. There isn't nearly as much pressure for him to reveal his identity to some schlub on earth.

Can't be worse than Daredevil! Although, I think you'd be hard pressed to find a movie, super hero or not, that's worse than Daredevil.

In all fairness, I thought Ironman looked about this bad from the trailer before I saw it.
Let's give Martin Campbell some credit. He's directed some pretty good movies in the past (like Casino Royale, Golden Eye, and the Zorro movies).

Suprised at the negativity I am seeing... I was impressed by the trailer. Probably wouldn't have gone to see it in the cinema, probably will now.

i thought it looked kinda cool. Too much flying through space, and green dudes hovering, but it doesnt look terrible. From the trailer i kind of see a Fantastic Four vibe to the movie (which isnt good lol), but it should still be kinda cool.
Everyone is so jaded, the irony! :P

Yea this looks pretty bad; still will go see it but not expecting anything good.
