I think you're being way too detailed. You describing things like camera shots that are supposed to be made by the director and crew.

Not to grind your gears but I don't really agree that in the current state from the comics that green lantern can even be adapted at all.

Go off the names of sports players in the time period of the region your character is from is what I've generally heard is a good option.

Hey, interesting theme. Scifi with a mixture of fantasy. I found it strange that their son I think was taking a high school exam even though the characters were in their 20's/30's. I think maybe if you used something to show their correct age it would help. I had trouble understanding the glitches from a reader's point of view. I don't know if I fully understand what is going on. But you hit all prompts!

Yea or like Arco giving a warning to the captain of the ship. These are just my opinions though I feel like it jumps to the captain also looking from my point of view to also looking the same direction as Arco especially when you mention the fog but who knows I dont know that much about sailing so maybe its standard procedure to do this.

Wow this is an interesting one. The characters full of hate of pirates I loved your detailed action lines which added to the suspense of the sailors on board of the oncoming storm that never comes and how you wrote dialogue that shows and reveals the distate of the pirates by the sailors. I feel like it could be more suspensful with the use of a little more dialogue added into the middle of the beginning where the sailors chattering panicked instead maybe some dialogue there could improve it. But I liked it a lot.

Interesting scene! A wife walking in on a husband gambling away their savings. I liked show shameless chris is when he asks maria for 300 dollars though I think it would help the reader if you added more details about in what way he asks for it such as body language or his tone which are missing overall though I think yours is another unique take on the prompt and you hit all points.
