Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Green Lantern: Emerald Knights is a 2011 direct to DVD Movie out of DC's DVD Movie line.An anthology much like Batman: Gotham Knight, framed as Hal Jordan telling tales of the Green Lantern Corps to the newly recruited Arisia Rrab as they prepare to fight an attack from the Antimatter Universe.Features Nathan Fillion as Hal Jordan, Jason Isaacs as Sinestro and Elisabeth Moss as Arisia, as well as Eddie Berganza, Alan Burnett, Todd Casey, Dave Gibbons, Michael Green, Marc Guggenheim, Geoff Johns and Peter Tomasi as writers and Chris Berkeley, Lauren Montgomery and Jay Oliva as directors.While something of a tie-in to the Live Action Film it's not in the same continuity, and shares the drawing style and character models with Green Lantern: First Flight, though it's not a sequel to that either (where Hal is the rookie and Arisia is the veteran).Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The anthology, with a framing story that is loosely based on the first Tales of The Green Lantern Corps. Comic Book miniseries, contains the following stories, which are mostly adapted from comic storylines going from the Eighties to the current volume, of: The First Lantern, the sole original story in the anthology. Kilowog, based upon the story "New Blood" from issue three of Blackest Night: Tales of the Corps. Laira, based upon the story "What Price Honor?" from issue six of Green Lantern Corps Quarterly. Mogo Doesn't Socialize, based upon the Alan Moore story of the same name (originating from issue 188, Vol 2 of Green Lantern). Abin Sur, based upon "Tygers", also by Alan Moore and originally published in the second edition of Tales of the Green Lantern Corps Annual.

comment
Canon Foreigner: The first Green Lantern Avra is exclusive to this animated film, as not only is his story the only one in the anthology to be original rather than adapted from the comics, but the title of first Green Lantern in the comics belonged to Rori Dag, whose origin isn't at all like how Avra became a Green Lantern (and was subsequently retconned by the Wrath of the First Lantern arc of Geoff Johns' run and the "Out of Time" arc of Green Lanterns, which respectively established that a being called Volthoom was the first Lantern in general and that the first Green Lanterns were seven recruits gathered to fight Volthoom).

Kilowog's drill sergeant Deegan, Laira's father Kentor and the first Green Lantern Avra also qualify as examples of the trope in regards to the Framing Device, as the stories featuring them end with the implication or overt depiciton of their deaths.

Ambiguous Situation
 Green Lantern: Emerald Knights / int_1f6983f7
comment
Ambiguous Situation: At the time of the movie, Sinestro is still a loyal Green Lantern, and he writes off Atrocitus' foretelling of his Face–Heel Turn, describing the monster as a false prophet. The audience knows that Sinestro's fall is an inevitability, but it's not clear if Sinestro is lying about the validity of Atrocitus' prediction, or if he's giving an honest opinion and just hasn't decided to turn on the Green Lanterns yet. There's also the fate of Bolphunga. He's last seen getting blasted by a Green Lantern beam from Mogo, but we don't know if he's dead or if Mogo just apprehended him.

comment
Dare to Be Badass: This is a point of the training that Kilowog and Deegan before him tried to instill in new lantern recruits. Justified in that some recruits never even had combat experience before joining the Green Lantern Corps, and thus need training and a good kick in the ass to turn them into proper Green Lanterns.

Mythology Gag
 Green Lantern: Emerald Knights / int_26ac510e
comment
Mythology Gag: The phrase "Mogo doesn't socialize" is used three times when his story is brought up. Tomar-Re is the first to do so, referencing how he was the one who told Arisia the tale of Mogo in the original comic story. Arisia wonders if Krona's coming is the "blackest night" foretold in the Lantern Corps oath. Sinestro replies that it's merely dusk. Comics readers know that Sinestro has a point. Hal Jordan alludes to Ch'p, an alien squirrel-like Lantern, though he is unnamed but briefly seen. Jordan says that Ch'p was his backup against an army of Manhunters, the Lanterns' evil robotic forerunners.

Adapted Out: Abin Sur's story, an adaptation of "Tygers" from the second edition of Tales of the Green Lantern Corps Annual, omits the child Abin Sur rescued after being informed by Qull that she is the only survivor of the ship crash he arrived to investigate. In addition, the foretelling of the downfall of the Green Lantern Corps omits Sodam Yat and replaces the Children of the White Lobe with the Sinestro Corps, while Qull himself is omitted due to Atrocitus taking his place as the prisoner interrogated by Abin Sur who foresees the demise of Abin Sur and the Green Lantern Corps.

Adaptational Sympathy
 Green Lantern: Emerald Knights / int_39a41690
comment
Adaptational Sympathy: Kentor Omoto's portrayal in Laira's story is more sympathetic than how he was portrayed in the source material. The original comic story from issue six of Green Lantern Corps Quarterly established that Kentor used to be a Green Lantern, but was kicked out for being a myopic zealot and is ultimately confronted by his daughter for his cruel reign over their planet. The Emerald Knights version makes it so that Kentor was never a Green Lantern and resents his daughter for being chosen over him, but in the end is remorseful of having to fight her.

Alternate Continuity: The film shares character models with Green Lantern: First Flight, but is demonstrably not in the same continuity, the most notable discrepancies including Abin Sur's design being somewhat closer to how he was depicted in the comics, the fact that none of the characters are voiced by the actors who voiced them in First Flight and how Sinestro has yet to betray the Corps and obtain a yellow power ring when his Face–Heel Turn was the major conflict of First Flight.

Hal Jordan alludes to Ch'p, an alien squirrel-like Lantern, though he is unnamed but briefly seen. Jordan says that Ch'p was his backup against an army of Manhunters, the Lanterns' evil robotic forerunners.

Posthumous Character: In Laira's story, her mother; Laira is unfavorably compared to her mother by Ree'Yu (Laira notes that she inherited her mother's humility), and an image of his late wife visibly moves Kentor as he and Laira fight. Abin Sur is dead by the time of the framing story, but his legacy survives in his ring (now wielded by Hal Jordan) and in the memories of his friend Sinestro (who narrates Abin Sur's story). Kilowog's drill sergeant Deegan, Laira's father Kentor and the first Green Lantern Avra also qualify as examples of the trope in regards to the Framing Device, as the stories featuring them end with the implication or overt depiciton of their deaths.

Art Shift: "The First Lantern" and "Kilowog" have a decidedly more cartoony style and proportions compared to the other shorts, which may be because those are the ones that focus the least on human-like aliens. The stories of both aren't Lighter and Softer though, they match up pretty well to the rest of the film and it isn't as dramatic a shift as similar DTV movies have done. "Laira" serves as the only segment not animated by Studio 4°C, and is instead animated by JM Animation.

Villainous Breakdown: Bolphunga spends weeks on a planet searching in vain for Mogo, slowly being driven insane from chasing endless reports of green lantern energy from his recon drones that lead to nothing. So he tries to firebomb the surface, which is completely undone in seconds while a giant Lantern symbol materializes. Finally he realizes what Mogo is. He doesn't take it well.

comment
Took a Level in Badass: Avra goes from a mere scribe to one of the first Green Lanterns, and from there, the first Lantern to realise the true potential of the Power Rings. When she first got her ring, Laira could only call for help from the other Green Lanterns. By the time she returns to her homeworld, she's become a one-woman army. Hal notes that aside from Sinestro, Laira is the Lantern he'd most want by his side in a pinch. Arisia starts the movie nervous and uncertain of her role as a Green Lantern. By the end of the movie, she's earned her stripes, the esteem of her comrades, and even has her own entry in the Book of Oa.

Dramatic Irony: A bunch of holograms show happy moments from Laira and her father's lives as they fight. As usual, references to Sinestro being a good guy who'd never betray the Corps are played for as much of this as possible; Hal notes that Sinestro is the one Lantern he most wants by his side in a crisis (the two become arch-enemies in the comics), and Abin Sur is convinced that Atrocitus is lying when he foretells the rise of the Sinestro Corps.

Fatal Flaw: In his story, it's shown that Abin Sur was so dedicated to his duty that he would forgo resting in favor of working, and would only stop working to charge his ring when its energy dropped to unacceptable levels. This leads to him nearly dying when his ring power drops too low during the fight, the same thing that - as Atrocitus predicts - is what later led to his Death by Origin Story.

The anthology format doesn't have time to make him anything else, but it's particularly noticeable since Kilowog's and Laira's stories were able to carry the emotional weight that Krona's lacks completely. The Khundians appear in Kilowog and Laira's stories as a ruthless invading army, but they get no characterisation beyond acting as a generic threat in Kilowog's story and a background influence in Laira's.

Alien Blood: Deegan bleeds green. Jaydians bleed blue. Ardakian Trawl's species bleed indigo. Bolphunga's first opponent bleeds yellow. The dead Lanterns shown in Atrocitus's vision have either red, purple, or blue blood.

Shout-Out: The Guardians plan to move their library to the Broome-Kane star system. Deegan to Full Metal Jacket. As an interesting point of fact, the character of Deegan is referred to in the Blackest Night comics as "Ermey", a direct Shout-Out to the man who played the aforementioned Drill Sergeant Nasty, R. Lee Ermey. Laira's transformation sequence also resembles Sailor Moon's.

Super Hero Origin
 Green Lantern: Emerald Knights / int_c85c20f6
comment
Superhero Origin: The first story is about the first four Lanterns and their first mission, showing the origin of the Corps. Kilowog's segment is all about how he learned how to become a Green Lantern under the tutelage of Deegan. Laira's segment also briefly goes over her origin, telling of how she got her ring during a Khundian invasion. In a sense, the whole film could serve as Arisia's origin story, detailing her first major victory as a Lantern when she defeats Krona.

Determinator: Green Lanterns run on Heroic Willpower, but Deegan stands out for successfully fighting back against a Khundian tank while being fatally bombarded by the same tank. Bolphunga isn't called "The Unrelenting" for nothing; he keeps up his hunt for Mogo for months without even considering giving up. When he realises exactly what he's fighting, however, Bolphunga finally relents.

Big Damn Heroes: During a skirmish with some shadow demons, Laira, Kilowog, and Sinestro swoop in just in time to keep Hal and Arisia from being overrun. Sinestro, Kilowog and Laira blast in to save Arisia from a Shadow Demon. Mogo in the final battle, single-handedly killing Krona's entire Shadow Demon army and pushing the planet into him when he was previously holding it at bay. He's literally a big damn hero.

Instead, Laira's predecessor is Galius Zed, and Kentor resents his own daughter for inheriting the ring instead of him.
