Okay this? This. Is. AWESOME. I so needed the boost watching this gave me today. And as to Nathan Fillion playing Hal Jordan.... I'm having serious
difficulty thinking of any downside. The best (or only) recent portrayal of Hal was David Boreanez voicing him in the New Frontier movie, and whilst
that hit all the right notes for me, I still think Fillion could better it, we've seen he can do damaged, heroic assholes on Firefly, and whilst Captain
Reynolds and Hal Jordan are two very different beasts, despite the superficial similarities, I think he could do it. Plus there's the fact that he's an
actor that we KNOW would research the core material and do his utmost to respect the fans without pandering. (If for no other reason the Whedon would be on the
phone to him giving him a stern yet supportive geek-out the second he heard about it).
