But avarice separates them on the spectrum
Nowhere near as primal, sorry. The whole premise of avarice is arguably rather...civilized.

Yeah, doesn't look like there's going to be much. But to be fair, even the TDK blu-ray was pretty disappointing-- lots of random special features but very little about the actual making of the movie.
It seems there are just some movies or directors who aren't as interested in documenting or explaining everything.
Martin Campbell not being one of them. The lack of features is a corporate decision.
I think a double dip would only depend on the sales of the first DVD combined with if they actually have enough special features footage to show on an uber edition which I seriously doubt they do. I don't believe that Campbell has ever recorded an audio commentary before on any of his film's dvd releases. I think the commentary is in fact a director and cast thingy, meaning they do them if they are available or want to do them.
I can't imagine making Green Lantern LONGER would make it a better movie experience.
Nah, I say Hugh Jackman as Guy.
It's rare, but it happens sometimes. The director's cut of Kingdom of Heaven (which added about forty-five minutes of material removed from the picture by Fox) is a vastly superior movie than the theatrical version.
I don't know... most of my complaints were about the Cloud as antagonist and the Green Lantern Corps looking stupid--you lock your greatest threat away from surveillance? Idiots--I don't think a longer movie will help that.
I'll rent the longer edition but this movie at best will be purchased when it's in a $5 bin, if at all.
Thought we might as well examine it's theatrical run now that it's concluded.
Worldwide=$219m
US domestic=$116.6m
Foreign=$103m
Anyone know how those intial DVD base units sold? Compared to it's peers how does that rank?

Geoff Johns hasn't given up hope of a sequel

Neither have I. Frankly those numbers are decent. They're not smash hit either. Parallax was needed in order to do the War of Light story which they very clearly intended to do over a trilogy. I didn't like the fact that they combined Krona and Parallax together. As for announcing a sequel...they don't have to rush it. I'm not naive enough to think it's automatic or that it will even happen but I'm also realistic enough to think that they will still green light a sequel. We've got sequels that have made less money and been low profile than "Green Lantern" before.
The gross, worldwide, barely covered the film's production costs. Add in the cost of marketing -- reported to be pretty high for this film -- and you're in the hole. Divide the profits between the distributor (Warner Bros.) and the exhibitors (theatres) and things are looking even more dire.
Geoff Johns says that "he hopes the character gets another film," and he'll probably get his wish, sooner rather than later. Just not a film that is a sequel to this version.

I thought most of the complaints was about poorly developed characters, mis cast actors, and dialogue that was groan worthy.
And since the extra footage is just expanding Hal's father's death and Hal asa child the day of that event, it really doesn't address the flaws of the film.
And of course the fact that the transfer is awful, certainly doesn't help at all.
