Jimmy Olsen from Superman is a twin of Marvel's Iceman? Or a different Jimmy Olsen.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I just saw Shawn in Mariachi Gringo, so he's my favourite. He was also Eric Summers in Smallville. Aaron was Jimmy Olsen.

Eureka's Henry, Joe Morton? Or are you referring to a comics character?

I'm pretty sure that's who she meant given Terminator 2 and Brother from Another Planet preceding Eureka.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

And Speed, yes, I'm familiar with Morton. I just wasn't sure it was him she was referring to. Thanks, Frank.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Saw The World's End (which I kept calling "The End of the World!").

Started off slow (I think my brother was about to lynch me) and man, did it have a lot of pathos, and SP showing his age worked for the character.

And when it picked up, man did it ever! I think the action sequences/fight scenes were among the most impressive that I've ever seen! Nick Frost continues to steal my heart.

I had a big laugh at how the end was won (because my little brother is gifted with the "don't bother arguing my illogic, it is futile, and I shall wear you down" ).

I was sad that Martin Freeman bought it, mostly because I was distracted by the Martin Freeman, but especially sad about Peter, because that actor is freaking adorable with his chipmunk cheeks and sweetness.

I continue to wonder why Bill Nighy does these voice roles when he adopts such a bland voice to do them. I felt the same way in Rango.

brillig

Saw World War Z at the dollar movie. I was OK with giving it the benefit of the doubt because a) it was cheap, b) Brad Pitt's cute, and c) zombie movies are inherently illgocal. But then we got to the zombie swarming Jerusalem's huge wall--and no one noticed until they cleared the top! Was there not one medievalist or student of military history to tell them "Yes, you've built a kickass wall, now patrol the damned thing!"

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

People really seem to think a big fucking wall will just solve all your problems (see also: Pacific Rim).
