10 More Movie Post-Credits Scenes That Went Absolutely Nowhere

10. Sinestro's Yellow Ring - Green Lantern

Even in spite of the popularity of multiple different iterations of the superhero, there is yet to be a proper appearance of a Green Lantern in the DCEU. There was one shown fighting Steppenwolf in Justice League, and Nathan Fillion has been cast as Guy Gardner in Superman: Legacy, but until then Martin Campbell's 2011 movie is all fans really have.

The sad truth is that no one enjoyed this movie, and it has even been ridiculed by Ryan Reynolds on numerous occasions in the years since. The franchise is as dead as a franchise can be, leaving one thread dangling without a resolution.

The post-credits scene shows Mark Strong's Sinestro - to some, the best aspect of the underwhelming movie - donning the yellow ring he wanted to use against Parallax earlier in the film. This was a clear setup for the character evolving into his typical villainous form in the future.

However, with Reynolds now firmly planted as the world's Deadpool, the critical and commercial failure of Green Lantern, and no real call for a return to this particular universe, the chances of ever seeing this version of Sinestro in his classic yellow suit are as low as they could possibly be.
