If you find "Green Lantern" somewhat lacking this weekend, don't blame Jack Black.

Seven years ago, long before Ryan Reynolds got involved, Black was set to star in a spoofy take on the superhero written by "Saturday Night Live" vet Robert Smigel. How different might it have been?

According to GQ's Mike Ryan, who got his hands on the old script, Black's protagonist would have been selected for the Green Lantern corps owing to his bravery in eating coyote brains on a reality show, and his mentor, Sinestro, would have distracted Black during a crucial scene with the thought of Elmo knocking boots with Barbara Walters.
