Haven't seen GL, but based on its reviews and that I have seen Thor, I'd go with 
Thor.  I didn't think it was better than either Iron Man or the best comic book 
movie, but I was very pleasantly surprised.  It also grows on you.  After seeing 
it and thinking about seeing it I've come to appreciate it more.  It is what a 
comic book movie should be - fun and nothing about the movie gets in the way of 
that.  


The Detroit Free Press movie of GL was subtly brutal.  Too much CGI and targeted 
for the 10-14 boy crowd.  I don't know about he targeting but from trailers I've 
seen I'm inclined to think that is on the mark re the CGI.

And only 27% on Rotten Tomatoes.  FWIW, its off my "in theater" list and I'll 
wait for DVD/Netflix to see it.  I am however going to see the X-Men movie 
tomorrow.  The weather is sooo #^%*(&@ hot down here there isn't much else to do 
besides drink and watch tv, and the latter gets old quick.  Wish I was in Austin 
- I'd go to the DraftHouse Cinema and combine the two, (drinking and a movie).  
And I'd even keep my cell phone in my pocket, (I do anyway, at least after the 
previews are over).
