I thought this was really cool.

80% of contributions to Obama are $35 or less. I wonder what it's like for Romney.

Also, I may have underestimated how much my mom is into Marvel now...

She just gave me a countdown that in 12 hours, we will be watching The Amazing Spider-Man and that she expects me to be ready in 11 hours...

First, she's the one to suggest hitting up a comic book store, now this...

I think her training is complete. Short of actually reading a comic, there is no more I can do for her.

I was a voracious reader...read Jurassic Park at age ten...but I was very, very picky. I tended to stick with licensed properties: Buffy, Star Wars, Goosebumps.

I didn't branch out until I started reading Harry Potter in 1999.

Well, my favorite Tolkien books are actually The Silmarillion and Roverandom...

It's a movie about two runners in the Olympics. It compares and contrasts them...one is the son of Christian missionaries. The other is Jewish in a time that not everyone was kind to them...this would be between the World Wars.

Ultimately, it's a feel good movie about believing in yourself and your beliefs but allowing some leeway for great things to happen. It has an awesome, awesome cast. I'm named after the Christian, Eric Liddell.
Also, it's like 80% true.

Here's a trailer:


There's even a scene or two where Kenneth Branagh, Hugh Laurie and Stephen Fry were all extras in the background.
