Trailer Time: Green Lantern, starring Ryan Reynolds

As promised a couple of days ago when we first saw glimpses of it, here is the full official trailer for Green Lantern, starring Ryan Reynolds as the emerald warrior himself, Hal Jordan. Right off the bat, I've always dug GL's origin, which is about as golden age as you can get. Seeing it presented here in action makes my palms sweat with excitement, I'm not gonna lie. But then I think it goes way overboard with the CGI effects, expected considering this is mostly a space faring comic book adventure, but it doesn't all look quite up to par. Green Lantern's powers are such that it's always going to be a fine line between cool and cheesy. Let's just hope the finished product is a bit better than what we're seeing here.

Anyway, here's the trailer. It should be attached to Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows coming up this Friday, so keep an eye out for it!
