They're having a Justice League movie out soon with no Green Lantern in it.  If missing a key character for the Justice League doesn't sound rushed to you then I don't know what is.  And you can't say it's all part of their plan because that's just plain stupid.  

...Ok fine, either they're rushing it or just stupid.

The Avengers came without some key characters like Ant Man, who had a movie in production before Iron Man. Do you really think Marvel had one plan and stuck to it? Spider-Man got added to Civil War in the last 2 weeks of shooting. That's not rushing?

While I do agree with you that the Avengers didn't use the full original cast but we clearly see they purposely wanted to change it slightly by titling the first Captain America movie 'The first avenger' when clearly he wasn't.  I was a bit disappointed they didn't keep the origin of Ultron tie in with Ant Man.  Spider-man isn't even a staple for the Avengers and wasn't added into the group until the 90s?  And yes that was rushing, but that's because of licensing issues.

But that aside, no comic group is more iconic and memorable than the Justice League in which Green Lantern has always been a staple in the group. So to not have Green Lantern in the Justice League movie is highly disappointing.  The only logic I can think of is that they're rushing it.  I can't see why they can't take the time to find a Green Lantern unless they're being rushed.  Not like they have licensing issues unlike Marvel/Sony/Fox.

Honestly, is everybody perfectly cool with Justice League not having Green Lantern? I just think that's completely wrong.
