Loved them both, especially Thor.

2nd time seeing them (saw them in the theater when they were first released) and I appreciated Thor a lot more, and I thought Kenneth Branagh made a real classy superhero film.

Not in the class of X-Men First Class, though.

Green Lantern was a childhood dream come true. Grew up reading all those GL comics of the 80s and I always wanted to see one of my favorite superheroes on the big screen, and it became a reality. The highlights were undoubtedly Sinestro, CG-ed Parallax and the world of Oa, and the sore point? Ryan Reynolds. He has to be the most annoying choice to play Hal Jordan. Also, a stronger script might have helped the film as well. I thought a lot of things happened too quickly, and the actors were more cardboarded in their actions, with Reynolds giving exasperated looks more than once.

Both films look absolutely gorgeous in High-Def. Specially Thor.
