On Oa, the headquarters planet of the intergalactic police force, the Green Lantern Corps, the Guardians of the Universe see alarming evidence that the feared villain, Krona, is coming to destroy the planet. While the Guardians move to evacuate, Green Lantern Hal Jordan helps the unsure new recruit, Arisia, by telling her several stories of fellow Lanterns and the challenges they faced. Through him, we see the adventures of Avra the first Lantern, Princess Laira, Kilowog, the unsociable Mogo and Jordan's immediate predecessor, Abin Sur. When Krona arrives, those stories prove more valuable than anyone expects as Arisia draws a special inspiration from them. —Kenneth Chisholm (kchishol@rogers.com)

Green Lantern Emerald Knights: For fans only
Emerald Knights has a story it does, but it makes up a small percentage of the film as most of it is short tales being regaled to the newest member of the Lantern Corps.
Some are good, some are meh, but the whole thing felt very incomplete due to this.
With fantastic voice talent including Nathan Fillion, Henry Rollins & Kelly Hu the effort/budget clearly went into this but alike the original Green Lantern offering I simply don't get the appeal.
Weird aliens, bizzare powers and lore that keeps shifting.
What bugs me about all these animated movies is that they aren't connected and have no consistency. Characters who died are back, events that happened never took place etc etc and that's very evident here. They really need to make an animated universe and stick with it.
Emerald Knights isn't terrible, I'm just not the demographic.
The Good:
Opening sequence was brutal
Kelly Hu & Henry Rollins
The Bad:
Contradicts the lore in places
Spread rather thin
Things I Learnt From This Movie:
The guardians are smurfs
