Geoff Jonhs Talks Sinestro in Green Lantern!
Thu, June 17, 2010 
DC's Chief Creative Officer Geoff Johns was recently on the set of Green Lantern. He posted what he thought of sinestro on his blog:
I just returned from New Orleans, where Green Lantern is deep in production set for release in June 2011. Green Lantern has an unreal crew and cast. Grant Major – the Production Designer on Lord of the Rings. Martin Campbell – the director of Casino Royale. And Mark Strong from Sherlock Holmes and Kick-Ass as Sinestro. And while I was there, there was a test on Sinestro. How he looks. How he moves. An amazing test.
Unfortunately, that test is top secret.
I can say with confidence, however, if you like Sinestro you’re going to love Mark Strong as Sinestro. Powerful, regal, intimidating. Mark clearly has done his research and embraced every aspect of what makes Sinestro one of the greatest, most complex characters within the vast, epic universe of the Green Lantern Corps. I think you’ll be as psyched as I am when you finally see him.
I expected right from the start after hearing Strong had been cast that he'd be great in the role. It seems like no one can play a villain quite like him. He really is the Villains Villain. Lets just hope something is revealed come comic con next month, and that it makes its way online. Fingers crossed.

This is much better than a Smurf movie. Besides they already did Smurfs for the big screen, remember? Avatar :)
I'm not sure what this has to do with the smurfs, but I agree it does sound a lot better.
Avatar was basically just smurfs on steroids in 3D.
I don't know, what does Fargo have to do with Green Lantern? :)
Its just like Fargo, the guy in the movie Green Lantern, he looks like the quiet kidnapper that eventually puts his partner in crime through the woodchipper :)
In other words, it has nothing to do with anything but my salient thoughts, tumbling through the ocean and loving it :)
