Experienced Protagonist: Downplayed as while John is a war veteran, that does little to help him in becoming a Green Lantern and he's interacting with characters who have been heroes for far longer than him. The other heroes have been at this for awhile, with the much older Adam being considered a Living Legend on the cosmic side of things.

comment
Mythology Gag: The presences of Vixen and then Hawkgirl, and John interacting with both and the suggestion that he'll likely be working again with each, nods to their portrayals in the DCAU Justice League series. Hal's Face–Heel Turn and the destruction of the Green Lantern Corp are directly taken from the Emerald Twilight storyline, down to his wearing numerous Green Lantern Rings, while Hal's intention to destroy everything and build a new universe are from the Zero Hour event where he was also shot through the heart by Green Arrow.

Uncertain Doom: Adam's Heroic Sacrifice qualifies as this. While the others take it that he's gone for good, Adam's words beforehand hint that he's not expecting to die but it's not clear if his metagene could protect him from the alterations to the Zeta Beam weapon or if he's simply being optimistic.

Thou Shalt Not Kill
 Green Lantern: Beware My Power / int_2f94135c
comment
Thou Shalt Not Kill: The movie as a whole explores this idea. Green Arrow practices this and the rest of the Justice League is implied to as well until he has to break it to stop Hal but Hawkgirl, Adam Strange and John have all crossed this line before and are shown to be otherwise morally upstanding individuals. John in particular is seen to struggle with the idea of lethal force, suffering PTSD and being reluctant to use it despite being tempted. The overall idea is shown that while there are times where killing is unavoidable it should be put off unless absolutely necessary and only for the right reasons.

Broad Strokes
 Green Lantern: Beware My Power / int_547196be
comment
Broad Strokes: The film continues Adam's story after his own DC Showcase short, though there are some contradictions between the two. The main one is that his short implied Adam lived in a Used Future where humanity had expanded into space travel, so it's likely that in this version Adam had been living with alien miners instead. Also the color of the Zeta Beams were yellow in the short but are blue in this film.

Time Skip: This film hints that a large amount of time has passed since The Long Halloween due to: the Justice League having officially become a team as well as having created the Watchtower, along with how they have a close enough relationship with Hal and the Green Lantern Corps for John's power ring to explain the Watchtower to John; Martian Manhunter having returned to Earth and becoming a member of the team; and Vixen making her debut in this film with Wonder Woman also being mentioned.

comment
Replacement Goldfish: Subverted with Oliver and John. Oliver was best friends with Hal and was furious when he learned that his ring was now in John's possession, and while understandable not wanting to admit his friend was dead he's very short and bitter towards John. However he does start warming up to John as he shows he has potential as a hero and after learning Hal is alive any resentment he has vanishes. In the end it's clear that while the two are now friends Oliver doesn't see John as Hal's replacement and instead as a hero of his own right.

These Hands Have Killed
 Green Lantern: Beware My Power / int_bdd7fd6b
comment
These Hands Have Killed: A major part of John's PTSD is how much blood there is on his hands. He tries to avoid resorting to lethal force as a result but the combat situations he's forced into have him clearly tempted to kill again. He manages to make some peace with it at the end, citing his belief that even if crossing the line may be unavoidable at times it can at least be lived with because it was done for the right reasons rather than it just being the easier choice. Green Arrow has this at the end. As a proponent of Thou Shalt Not Kill it heavily weighs on him when he has to kill Hal to stop him. The fact that Hal was his best friend only compounds the issue.

comment
Adaptational Wimp: Despero in the comics is such a powerhouse that he can overpower multiple heavy hitter heroes like Superman, Shazam, Power Girl, and Wonder Woman all at once. And even scaled down versions of Despero in other media portrayals are all strong enough to give the main heroes a climactic fight. In this film, Despero is defeated by a rookie (in terms of being a Green Lantern) John Stewart in one hit and has the added bonus of looking older and frailer than other depictions.
