Ryan Reynolds Debuts CGI Green Lantern Suit

Ryan Reynolds says, "Knucks for everybody!" Err -- that's probably not the first impression Warner Bros. wanted you to have upon seeing Reynolds wearing the Green Lantern suit, but at least it averts your attention away from the CGI-palooza of the thing. Right?

EW debuts Reynolds-as-Green Lantern on the cover of their latest issue, and if you were hopeful the planned all-CGI suit that director Martin Campbell was prepping for the film would look good, well... it kind of doesn't. But considering it's only one still image on the cover of a magazine, it seems prudent to reserve judgment -- at least until the trailer hits. Besides, between the motion-capture suit and Peter Sarsgaard's Elephant Man-like transformation -- not to mention co-star Blake Lively -- Green Lantern is poised to have the best special effects this side of Avatar.
