Couch Potato Theater: Be Kind & Rewind - Green Lantern (2011) Watch: Fandom Podcast Network YouTube Channel Link: https://www.youtube.com/@FandomPodcastNetwork Listen: Fandom Podcast Network Audio Podcast Link: https://fpnet.podbean.com/category/couch-potato-theater Welcome to Couch Potato Theater here on the Fandom Podcast Network. Fandom Podcast Network co-founders Kyle and Kevin welcome back special guest, and one of the original FPN co-founders... Norman! Norman came to us with an excellent idea and twist to Couch Potato Theater. Couch Potato Theater is where we celebrate our favorite movies.... usually. But on this special edition of Couch Potato Theater we look back at films that maybe we, or the public opinion originally didn't like! But now, we may have a different opinion, welcome to Couch Potato Theater: Be Kind & Rewind - Green Lantern (2011). Green Lantern is a 2011 American superhero film directed by Martin Campbell, from a screenplay by Greg Berlanti, Michael Green, Marc Guggenheim, and Michael Goldenberg. Ryan Reynolds stars as Hal Jordan / Green Lantern, a test pilot who is selected to become the first human member of the Green Lantern Corps, an intergalactic police force. He is given a ring that grants him superpowers and must confront Parallax, a being who threatens to upset the balance of power in the universe. The film also stars Blake Lively, Peter Sarsgaard, Mark Strong, Angela Bassett, and Tim Robbins. Green Lantern was released in the United States on June 17, 2011, by Warner Bros. Pictures. The film received generally negative reviews from critics for its script, tone, visual effects, and unfaithfulness to the source material, and underperformed at the box office, grossing $237 million against a production budget of $200 million. It was also originally intended to start a film franchise based on DC characters. However, due to the film's critical and commercial disappointment, Warner Bros. scrapped plans for a sequel.

The Battle of Jakku -- Insurgency Rising mini-series concludes with its fourth and final issue, yet sets up the next four-issue tale -- Republic Under Seige -- quite nicely.

No new comics out this week, but plenty of news out of New York Comic Con from Oct. 17-21, including word that Poe Dameron is returning to comics via Dark Horse, Marc Guggenheim and Madibek Musabekov will have a new monthly from Marvel featuring Jedi knights set before the events of The Phantom Menace and plenty of hype about the Battle of Eriadu that's about to go down in the pages of The HIgh Republic Adventures Phase III.What wasn't revealed? Marvel's plans for Star Wars when The Battle of Jakku maxi-series concludes in January. We're hopeful that more details about what's to come will be doled out in the coming weeks. January solicits are due later this week and there might be some clues there (maybe).Comics Discussed This Week:Not a oneStar Wars Comics New to Marvel Unlimited This Week:Star Wars (Vol. 3) #48News: Marvel's January solicits are due out later this week, as are Dark Horse's March solicits.The Dark Horse Star Wars comics panel on Saturday at NYCC brought news that Ethan Sacks is writing a Poe Dameron comic that's set before the events of The Force Awakens that sees the pilot on a secret mission. So secret that Sacks would say no more.Alyssa Wong is penning a The High Republic Adventures Phase III one-shot that centers on the effects of and fallout from the upcoming battle of Eriadu that's about to unspool through issue #17 of The High Republic Adventures Phase III.Writers also broke down some of the elements of Jan. 22's THRA Annual 2025, with Scott's story focused on Baron Boolan, Justina Ireland's is about Vernestra Rwoh (including a Stellan Gios flashback), while Wong says they've written about Driggit Parse teaming up with a teen to take down the Nihil.Cavan Scott said he is writing another halloween-inspired comic, while Michael Siglain says the guest-star villain of January's start of the five-issue The Bad Batch: Ghost Agents will be revealed shortly.With regard to the Mace Windu and Grievous graphic novels announced at NYCC today, it's worth noting these aren't new. Dark Horse noted back in October 2023 at NYCC that they were among the characters slated to get such books in the Hyperspace Stories graphic novel line through 2024, led by Qui-Gon, which was initially set to publish in July 2024. It's now due out March 4Due out May 20 is Star Wars: The High Republic Adventures Phase III Vol. 3, collecting issues 11-13 and the Wedding Spectacular. The 112-page TPB from Dark Horse will retail for $19.99.With regard to Friday's Lucasfilm Publishing Panel at NYCC, in terms of Star Wars comics, the series Marc Guggenheim is writing is called Star Wars: Jedi Knights, with each issue a self-contained story. It's set before the events of The Phantom Menace. Featured characters will include Yaddle and a new Jedi who is disabled created expressly for the story. It will also feature the Star Wars equivalent of kaijuCharles Soule said he's working on a story about a character he didn't name, but noted that Marvel is working on some "other stuff" that's not yet been revealed or even discussed publicly.Upcoming Star Wars comics, graphic novels and omnibuses:Oct. 29 _ Star Wars Legends Epic Collection: The New Republic, Vol. 8Oct. 30 — Echoes of Fear #3 (of 4), Battle of Jakku -- Insurgency Rising #3, The High Republic Adventures Phase III #11Oct. 31 _ Age of Resistance — Kylo Ren #1 (Trick or Read Reprint)Nov. 6 _ Battle of Jakku -- Insurgency Rising #4, Ahsoka #5 (of 8)Nov. 12  _  Star Wars Legends Epic Collection: The Original Marvel Years — Droids & Ewoks;

A tender side arises in the pages of Doctor Aphra (Vol. 2) #39 in an ending that made us proclam: "Dammit, Alyssa!"In Darth Vader (Vol. 3) #41, the Dark Droids event coalesces nicely into the foundational character building that Greg Pak has been doing since the first issue. The High Republic Phase III #2 (of 10) sees Keeve Trennis deftly balance herself between two enemies as the issue lets loose with a reveal guaranteed to drive High Republic fans into paroxysms.The Revelations (2023) one-shot provides a satsifying look forward to what to expect in 2024, including the hopeful return of a certain morally ambivalent archeologist, along with a classic crime gang from Marvel's '77-86 run of Star Wars comics.
