Green Lantern


 * [first lines]
 * Tomar-Re: [voice over] Billions of years ago, a race of immortals harnessed the most powerful force in existence. The emerald energy of willpower. These immortals, the guardians of the universe, built a world from where they could watch over all of existence; the planet Oa. They divided the universe into three thousands six hundred sectors. A ring powered by the energy of will were sent to every sector of universe to select a recruit. In order to be chosen by the ring, it was said one must be without fear. Together these three thousand six hundred recruits form the intergalactic peace keepers known as The Green Lantern Corps. Of all the threats the Corp ever faced, the gravest was an entity of fear, known as Parallax. Only the legendary Green Lantern, Abin Sur, was capable of capturing and imprisoning this beast. Which he did on the lost planet of Ryut.
 * Abin Sur: I’m gravely wounded. Heading to the nearest inhabitant planet for the selection process. Tell the guardians, it’s Parallax.
 * [to the woman he’s woken up next to]
 * Hal Jordan: Sorry! Gotta run. Make yourself at home, okay? There’s, uh…water in the tap.
 * Carol Ferris: Never mind that you crashed a brand new F-35, you broke the rules of engagement! You sacrificed your wing man. And you ruined the contract that this company and half the statements depend on.
 * Hal Jordan: I’m sorry. I thought that this was a dog fight. I was under the impression that the objective was to win.
 * Bob Banks: The objective was to show what the Sabers could do in actual combat. And in combat, no pilot is going to crater his own plane.
 * Hal Jordan: I did. Now you know you gotta boost the ceiling and your robots. I also showed you what they can’t do.
 * Carol Ferris: You didn’t have to make that point in front of the commander of air force acquisitions! Since I’m going to have to lay off most of my company anyway, you’re fired!
 * Hal Jordan: It’s too late, Carl. I quit. Thank you for the opportunity. I appreciate it.
 * Carol Ferris: You don’t get out that easy! He’s not fired! And you don’t quit! You’re grounded, pending the results of an investigation.
 * Bob Banks: Watch your back.
 * Hal Jordan: That’s impossible, Bob.
 * Carol Ferris: Wanna tell me what happened up there?
 * Hal Jordan: The controls locked up.
 * Carol Ferris: Don’t give me that, Hal. You had a window and you could have recovered. Did you choke? You wouldn’t be the first pilot it happened to, and I know…
 * Hal Jordan: The controls locked up! What the hell is all this, anyway, huh? What’s with the ridiculous suit? I know that you dad’s been bucking for you take over the company, but this is taking it a little too far!
 * Carol Ferris: The matters of my career choice are not on the table right now!
 * Hal Jordan: You’re a…you’re a pilot, Carol! And a good one. Giving that up to fly for a God damn desk is bullshit!
 * Carol Ferris: Hal, I like the business part. And I’m good at! Which by the way doesn’t mean I’ll never get in a cock-pit again. It isn’t one way or the other. That’s a way a child looks at things and we aren’t children anymore. I just don’t wanna see someone I care about getting hurt. Least of all you.
