1. Hey now, let's not knock Seth Green or David Boreanaz. I loves me my Buffy (though I will admit that Green would've been an inappropriate choice).

Gosling would be great.

2. Only knocking them as polar opposite, and not entirely great, casting choices for this. I adore the Buffy. :)

3. Seems like a fine choice to me. Honestly I don't care a whole lot who they pick as long as they make a good movie. I've been waiting for this one for a long time.

4. Ryan Gosling would be a great choice to be Green Lantern.

I don't think that Seth Green has the body type to pull it off. Neither does Justin Long.

Angel would be a nice choice aswell.

5. I don't know. I've never seen anyting with Ryan Gosling in it. But from his pictures he looks a little on the boyish side.

And in David Boreanez' defense he already played the voice of Hal Jordan in the New Frontier animated movie and his voice really worked. But I'm not sure about his look either.

I think it should be someone with more many, rugged looks like Hugh Jackman. Hal Jordan has a very classic masculine look in the comics.

6. Ryan Gosling is amazing. He could do for Green Latern what Robert Downey Jr. did for Iron Man. I'm all for comic book adaptations that get a lead, and don't make the thing ridiculously cheesy a la Daredevil. It's cool the talented 'indie' guys are getting these roles. they bring a whole new depth.

7. No, yeah, this is great. I mean, I would have expected Hal to be played by, y'know, a grownup, and not a skinny little wisp of a lad, but no, yeah, I see what they're going for. Sure, who better to play a cocky, swaggering test pilot than someone who looks like a slightly simple-minded little boy. Hey, you know, not the direction I would have gone, but I'm sure this fey manchild will do a great job. Or at least he'll put in a good effort and earn a gold star and an attaboy.

8. I recently spotted Gosling at my gym and he's beefed up quite a bit. Physically, I think he'll fit the role of Hal Jordan.

9. ....but but but he doesn't even resemble Jordan!

10. As long as it's not Seth Rogen ....

11. I'd like to see Thor brought to the screen. Anyone born within the last twenty years would not know who I am talking about, but he was a interesting character in the comics.

12. Gosling would be a great choice for Green Lantern. Maybe the sequel could be a Green Arrow crossover where they go on a roadtrip.

13. Ryan Gosling is an amazing actor. He really commits to his roles. I am sure he would make an amazing superhero. I would love to see what he does with the role.

14. David Boreanaz all the way... Gosling is good but David is perfect for the role, hes just an amazing actor. The only other person I could see in this role is Jensen Ackles.

15. As much as I respect Ryan Gosling as an actor, I still see Hal Jordan played by Josh Duhamel. (Las Vegas, Transformers). He's a talented actor that looks the part. As far as I know Gosling is one of the few actors on WB's list along with Duhamel, so anything can happen until casting officially starts. (It's all gossip right now as far as I know)

He're's Josh:
