Ryan Reynolds recites Green Lantern Oath asked by Connor

On July 24, 2010, Ryan Reynolds publicly recited the Green Lantern oath for the first time. He was asked by Connor, a young Comic-Con attendee. This was NOT a studio plant, but just Ryan being a good guy!

Dude. It was my kid. Totally real. Not staged. Thought of the question himself.

[lylyeoh]

The kid asks what it _feels_ like to say the oath. Not sure if the kid asked for the oath to be recited.

@lylyeoh: I can assure you that it was not staged. I'm the kid's father. He's just really awesome and wanted to ask that question.

@dhridley

your son rocks sir.

All the people saying this was staged and not real are awful! I saw the official Comic Con video and the little boy did ask this and the reason Ryan recited the oath back to him was because people up front started yelling that he should and he was nice enough to do it for his fan. This is an incredible video and this little boy was very lucky and very smart to think of this question :)

I love how some of y'all are doubting that the kid asked the question.

But anyway this is probably one of the most epic moments I have ever seen. I wish I was in your son's shoes at that moment :D

Totally Staged !

Although cute and funny...no way that kid thought to ask "what does it feel like"

No Way !

i saw a fan trailer, the oath was so much better in that. If he say the oath like that in film, puppies will die.

Anyone else get a lil chill when he recites it?

[ShadesAtKnight]

@lylyeoh People were yelling "SAY IT".

i know bout fury, but the marvel universe is made to film, not the ultimate marvel universe, hal was the original galactic policeman green lantern, i have nothing against stewart but his lantern comics weren't my faves, guy was a funny dick, kyle was okay, his stint was a lot better than any stewart i ImO and kilowog never was the main focus of a series.

Hal Jordan is Green Lantern? I beg to differ, 'cause Alan Scott was the first one before Hal came along. Not to mention there is Guy Gardner, John Stewart (And you don't like Stewart because he is black??), Kyle Rayner, Kilowog, etc. I find it funny fans act like only Hal is GL, when that is not true.

And btw, Marvel blackening Fury was based on The Ultimates where Samuel L. Jackson gave his blessing to use his likeness before Iron Man movies was made.
