At first I wondered why the characters weren't wearing any GL suit or showcasing the GL powers, but then I realized it's a teaser meant to build curiosity, curiosity of if they will ever wear the suit and show the power, or if they will do it earlier, or if they will do it later. I believe that's the aim, to build that curiosity and expectations for the series. Some might disagree, but I can say that such curiosity has been built in me.

Aside that, being a teaser means they don't have to show everything or the juicy part. One may argue that being a teaser doesn't stop them from showing some of the juicy part, and you're right, but on the other hand, being a teaser also justifies them not doing it. So both showing some juicy part and not showing the juicy part are both valid, it's a matter of choice. One isn't more or less valid than the other. As I said, it's a matter of choice, and DC chose to take the path of the latter. One has to understand that, sometimes, there are multiple ways to do a thing, and not just one way. So the best thing to do is, watch the series when it releases in other to sate your curiosity, instead of judging a series from a teaser....

But the truth of the matter is, there's no way there will be absent of GL suits and powers. That's not a move Gunn and DC will be willing to take considering the backlash and negative publicity that will create. Also, the fact that we saw;
** The ring
** A glimpse of a lantern suit in a closet
** John Stewart presumably using the ring in the scene where their car flew off the cliff
** John holding the lantern
** Hal flying
** Hal identifying himself as a Green Lantern
** And Hal using his ring at the end of the teaser

... shows that the GL suits and powers would definitely be part of the series. But the question remains, would it be at the beginning or towards the end? That I don't know. We will have to wait for the series to be released for us to access such knowledge.

As for the setting, that shouldn't be an issue because Gunn has made it clear that the series will be set on Earth and not space. Some may argue that GL is a space story, and hence such should be the case. Yes, they're right, but Hal and John sector is sector 2814, which includes Earth, and Hal and John are from Earth, so it makes sense also for the story to be set on Earth. But one might still argue that they could have started from space and move to Earth. That's a valid argument, but starting from Earth and eventually moving to space is also valid. Both are valid, one isn't more or less valid than the other. So, at the end of the day, it's a matter of choice, and Gunn and DC chose the path of "Earth first, space later". You may not like it, but it is what it is. This isn't about feelings, but logic.

All in all, I like the teaser even though it wasn't what I was expecting, but hey, I understand it's a teaser hence why the juicy part wasn't shown even though they were teased. Also, the teaser's aim of stimulating curiosity worked on me, because I'm over the top curious which definitely will make me watch the series. And finally, it's unreasonable to judge a series by a teaser, but rather judge a series by the series itself. The teaser might be the same with the series, and the teaser might not be the same with the series. The determining factor is the series. So watch the series instead of making complains and judgement based off a teaser. That's what reasoning demands....

Season 2 was trash. Quality keeps dropping with every new episode.

I know no one forced me to watch this, but if you know you are one of those who recommended this movie, just pray we never meet on the street.

ValeeLove:
First we get an already old Hal Jordan, who is supposed to be the center of the universe; and now we're getting an ugly lantern suit to go along with it. Still hopeful but I won't hold my breath.

When it comes to costumes, Zack Snyder does deliver.

His costumes are among the best in D.C films.
