First up is The Green Lantern:
This is a DC character, one I vaguely remember, but wasn't that impressed by at the time. Here it's been done very well, although the plot, and the villain along with it, aren't particularly brilliant. Plus DC don't have Marvel's Avengers as a movie franchise to tie all the different heroes together, or Stan Lee to do his Hitchcock thing in every movie. Shame really because the DC heroes were always more iconic than Marvel. All in all, not a bad pizza movie.
Second is The Station Agent:
This was on a few weeks ago, which I missed and, based on Mr. Glitz's recommendation, rented on DVD to see what it was like. It's a drama-without-drama, or melodrama, and not really a comedy, but is nice viewing. Dinklage is quite good, and the supporting cast is good quality. Worth a watch.
