• Rex Dart Eskimo Spy is the movie that really needs to be made.

• I personally am a fan of more Maori in movies. Hot. (Hey, I'm a girl of particular tastes.)

• I came here to point this out. Truly an excellent flick, and he's great in it. +1

• Am I the only one who thinks that this dude is a dead ringer for pre-Ultimates Nick Fury?

• I can totally buy this casting. I'd love to hear that voice for Abin Sur... it'd suit him well I think.

• Wha....? booooom! take-the-ring-plleeasse, aaaaagh (dies) aaaand cut, that's a wrap ,thanks everybody

• LMFAO at Rex Dart... [snicker]

• As Brent said, just watch Once Were Warriors. You won't be concerned at all.

• with all the rage in once were warriors, he could be atrocitus. he is a great actor and i'm excited to see how he portrays abin sur.

• I think he has the acting capabilities required to die in a yellow gas explosion.

• I disagree vehemently on your evaluation of Morrison's performance in AoTC. The scenes with Jango and Obi Wan were the highlights of that film, and were well-acted. Way too brief but excellent.

• Ha touche.

• Oddly, the lead actress from OWW, Rena Owen, played a Senator Episode III and apparently also voiced a character. She's pretty bloody fantastic in OWW as well. (And Morrison is scary as hell in that movie.)

• Nobody saw "Barb Wire" (AKA the greatest comic book adaptation ever)? ...and: discuss.

• I don't like Jango Fett. I don't like the prequels. I don' read GL (sorry), so this isn't nerdy IN-YOUR-FACE for me :(

• Uncle Fucking Bully

• What Brent said.

• No kidding. If he brings that kind of intensity...we are a-ok

• You're right. That doesn't explain those three, seeing how they were not directed by Lucas.

• I first read about this on Ain't it Cool News, and they credited Morrison from Couples Retreat before Star Wars. Not very cool, AICN.

• I just watched Green Lantern: First Flight a few days ago, and I thought it was pretty good except for a moment or two; it made me respect Green Lantern a little more than before, so maybe this movie will be something I'm interested in.

• <i>Stilted acting by design!</i> Ah, but that doesn't explain <b>Howard The Duck</b>, <b>Willow</b>, and <b>Radioland Murders</b>.

• Brent is right, "Once Were Warriors" it's a great movie with awesome performances all across the board, and Temuera Morrison kills it in that one.

• Even if Morrison isn't that great of an actor, I don't expect him to have a lot of screentime. He's pretty much the Green Lantern equivalent of Uncle Ben, whose origin-specific death gives purpose to the real hero.

• Lucas is a great director of actors, see American Graffiti and all those naturalistic performances! Star Wars was directed to be to be to the point and like be like an old serial. Stilted acting by design!

• STOP with the assumably already!!!

• they're going to cast Pieface?

• Temura should not be faulted for being in the prequals for one bad role should not condem an actor for life. and sounds like Dc has figured out how to do their characters right on film for green Lantern is shaping up to be good though given what Thomas Kalmaku nick name used to be in the comics. one has to wonder how long he will be on screen? and looks like dc is finaly looking to play catch up. and kick butt

• Morrison was in a movie called "Once Were Warriors," about modern Maori in New Zeland. Incredibly good movie. He's actually a really good actor when, you know, given the chance to act.
