Green Lantern/Fridge

Fridge Brilliance

 * Why willpower? Why not an actual emotion like courage? Well, emotions are volatile, and the more obvious choices have been shown to brainwash their Lantern users. Thus, the neutral power is a state of mind rather than an emotion.
 * The Green Lantern: Rise of the Manhunters video game, in its loading screen will occasionally show a message along the lines of "The Green Lantern Ring generates its bearer's costume, based upon physiology & culture", which just seems to be a note about every Lantern having a different costume. The Fridge Brilliance kicks in when you realize that there's a piece of free DLC available, which unlocks Hal's costume from the comics... or rather, unlocks a re-skin of his movie costume to resemble to one he wears in the comics. The ring is generating Hal's costume based upon if the player is more familiar with the comics or movie.
 * In the Film, didn't steal the newly-forged Yellow Ring which Hal advised that no one should use... it broke out on its own and chose him.
 * In the comics, the normally dainty, delicate, and generally softening emotion of love is represented on the emotional spectrum by the Predator: a huge, intimidating, reptilian biped. Basically, it's a purple dinosaur that's all about love.
 * Parallax is, in science, essentially the difference of the perceived position of an object when viewed from different lines of sight. Now, why name the representative of fear after that? Because everyone sees fear differently.
 * Out of all the corps, the Star Sapphires stick out like sore thumbs, with their Stripperiffic outfits (while the other Corps have the standard Hard Light suits) and their tendency to only choose women. Why would this be the case? Well, considering their entity, the Predator, is a guy...

Fridge Horror
"Guy Gardner: Still feeling compassionate, Munk? Munk: Always."
 * Dex-Starr was an ordinary Earth cat when the red ring chose him. He's been able to speak and reason ever since. So either all Earth cats are sapient, or the rings can uplift non-sapient beings.
 * Or Dex-Starr was just "special" to begin with.
 * Considering it was Engrish, cats aren't as sapient as humans. Plus, cats see us as servants anyway.
 * If a Red Lantern loses a power ring, they go into cardiac arrest. So, because of this,  will die the moment he gets out. And since his heart was ripped out, it can never get fixed.
 * Debatable. Blue Lanterns can heal wounds and making a new heart should be child's play compared to reducing the age of a dying star.
 * In that case, let's hope they can keep  on life support the moment he gets out.
 * Turns out  Dude must have been taking lessons from "Hey I can talk without lungs" Lordgenome.
 * During Blackest Night:


 * Obviously, Sinestro's going to turn evil in any movie sequels. But what's his motivation for
 * Being outdone by a novice.
 * That doesn't fit with, well, anything we see of Sinestro in the whole movie. This is a "novice" that he just said, in front of the rest of the Corps with a smile on his face, was a great guy. There is nothing, nothing at all in the whole movie, hinting that he might feel this way.
 * In the Legion of Super-Heroes era, the Green Lantern Corps is defunct because Mogo was destroyed.
 * A lot of Green Lantern villains have had this happen to them: Black Hand was recently outed as a necrophiliac, Hector Hammond is constantly trying to mindrape Hal Jordan in order to steal his memories of all of the sex he has had over the years whenever he's not having his powers jammed, the Manhunters committed an act of genocide against an entire space sector (Sector 666) that was then COVERED UP by the Guardians because they didn't want anyone to find out what their creations did (cause who would trust them to run a police force after their first police force did that) and the survivors (who were naturally pissed off at how everyone and everything they ever knew or loved was dead) were isolated to a lifeless world and left eternally crucified in terms of being made to suffer horribly so as to not give the Guardians bad publicity.
 * The Hector Hammond thing took on ultra-scary terms when you see him LITERALLY eating Hal's memories in Green Lantern (vol. 4) #62.
 * A sort of Meta-example, both of Briliance and Horror. The Blue Lantern Corps, and the Blue Rings of hope have so far been seen as the most benevolent Corps. When you look over at Warhammer Fantasy, the God of Hope is Tzeentch, a Lord of Chaos. Most of the Blue Lantern Corps individuals are religious and saintly, and hand-chosen by a member of the Corps. Considering that some folks are unfettered in attaining their hopes, this was a good idea, but what if a Blue ring chose someone unfettered...?
 * Never happen. As we got to see when Jordan visited the Blue Corps' home planet, Blues pick fellow Blue recruits, whereupon they're taken to the Blue Battery and interviewed by the two Guardians who started the Blue Lantern Corps. Ganthet and Sayd weren't taking any chances on a repeat of Sinestro or Laira's father.

Fridge Logic

 * Wait wait wait what? Hasn't anybody noticed that of all of the "emotions" on the Emotional Spectrum, only four of them are actual emotions? (Rage, love, hope, and fear). Will and avarice are just character traits, as is compassion, though the later-most can be induced or bolstered by empathy or sympathy.
 * They probably count as emotions in the minds of the Guardians and others.
 * I had always understood them as more motivations, than emotions. You would act out of rage, greed, fear, will, hope, compassion or love because they are what give you the strength to perform an action, just as the rings do.
 * Geoff Johns has stated that this is how he sees the colours of the emotional spectrum. They're not necessarily feelings per se, but they're all basic drives.
