A text I got on my cell this morning from Cookie:
"What?! Nicholas Cage names new son Kal-El. Yep... Kal-El Cage. Child will inevitably kneel before Zod."

I did a bunch of theatre with a guy who used to draw Superman. His name was Jon Bogdanov, and he named his son Kal-El. He's in his twenties now I think. But how cool is that?
Not as much cool as it is asinine.
Nicholas Cage naming his son Kal-el, yes, that's asinine... but at least my guy had some sort of emotional tie with superman.
That connection has to be damn good.
Right, I am no more likely to name my child: Joss, Malcolm, Kaylee, Wash, Inara, Jayne, River, Buffy, Willow, Rupert, Xander, Wesley, Fred, Harry, Ron, Hermoine, Dumbledore, and so on... I am very attached to those characters and people, but I think that is why they become pet names, and not people names. Plus, Kal-El --- you can't pull that off. Clark -- yeah, I'd go with it. But come on, KAL-EL!!!!!!!
And why would you name your son after a character that you were once slated to play but didn't get to because the creators realized.... oh my god, nick cage as SUPERMAN! WTF! and snapped out of it. What does that set up for your son!?
Sorry, I am a bit dramatic. :)
Do you people see what misery and ill-will Superman brings to this Earth?? He's tearing us apart! Damn him and damn the phony Americana bullshit he represents!
And Margo Kidder, if you're reading this, Teri Hatcher was a better Lois Lane than you'll ever be!
