I vote for magnetism like Magneto had. That covers a lot of ground. I would use it to bend other people to my will and bring about my new world order.

Manipulation of time, definitely.

Age wouldn't be such a big deal if I didn't want it to be.

Make things you enjoy occur more slowly if wanted...make things you don't like fly by.

It's not an inborn power, but I would so have a working Green Lantern ring.
I think I would want one of the Kyle Rainer style rings with the Hal/John/Guy ring ability to also translate all known languages.

That was a no-brainer question for me. I think about it often.
Yep, I'm a dork.

What does everyone here think about Jack Black getting the lead in the upcoming Green Lantern movie?

I never thought about that before, but that would rule.

I'd say that I'd want to be able to fly like Superman. I'd mainly do it to hang out in rafters, or avoid using public transportation though.

Superspeed like the Flash has in the comics.

You can do pretty much whatever you wanted considering the speed of light is like a snail compared to how fast the Flash can move. It'd be pretty nice to be able to run litterally any where what so ever on the face of the Earth in a second. And you could get filthy stinking rich playing sports.

Jack Black (and whoever casted him, and probably the writer and director and producer) is gonna ruin the Green Lantern movie. It makes me sad.

I would *definitely* pick Green Lantern powers. Although... Forge's powers from the X-men would be *really* sweet. No, you know what, in terms of everyday usefulness, Forge's ability to make whatever machine his mind can come up with totally trumps Green Lantern. I'll make a fortune off of flying cars.

Kind of cliche, but to fly. Itd be pretty cool to just be able to take off and go whereve you pleased. Im sure you could find a way to make money off of it too, therefor allowing you to just fly yourself wherever you wanted to take some damn nice vacations
