    Plan A: Try to find a new girl while you systematically distance your feelings, maybe even distance yourself from her for now.

    Plan B: Chloroform.

    Don't ask me, man. I just got the same deal and went through two days of moping and hating everyone for not getting me, and then I was all "I'm totally over her, how silly of me to persue someone that it wouldn't work out with" and now I'm all *longing sigh* "She's so pretty." *longing sigh*

    Hey, Lois Lane still sucks at spelling. Superman gives the same speech about flight being the safest way to travel. Luthor had been in the Fortress of Solitude before.

    A chair, rope, a soundproof secluded room, and some imagination on your part.

    If there's one thing I keep hearing in life, it's that you can't "make" people do anything. At least most of the time.

    I mean, I was totally dominating the dance floor.

    I am not normally able to cut such a rug. Typically, feelings of inferiority and awkwardness override any sense of rhythm and creativity.

    I can't distance myself from her, on account of we're good friends and talk every day. That's probably what scares me the most - that she'll be so use to thinking of me as a friend that she'll look elsewhere for a boyfriend.

    Yeah, same situation here. We're basically both boned and we really ought to move on.

    But it's kind of hard when you're constantly around them, and they're all rubbing their perfection in your face by existing and stuff.

    Meh.

    I was still lacking something... the new guy doesn't have the same innocence that Reeves had. Superman wouldn't go randomly peeping on his old girlfriend and her family. I found that kind of creepy.

    But speaking of continuity, I was watching X-Men 3 last night, and I think I figured out how they're going to bring back Scott, Jean and Professor X.
    When Jean was a little girl, her best friend was hit by a car and she died in her arms. He suffered a psychotic break from reality, and remained catatonic until Professor X helped pull her back out of it and gain control over the two people living in the same mind. I've still got the Marvel Saga (or something like that) comic books where the go over how it happened from like the 70s or something. I think that first instance should give a serious clue as to how she's going to come back, and bring the other's with her.

    I think that when her friend died, she took her 'soul' or 'essence' into herself. This results in the Light/Dark personality demonstrated in the comic books and movie. When she died in X-men 2, she jumped into Scott's mind, rather than doing the whole cocoon thing that happened in the comic. There's no evidence she used a similar technique in the movie, just a suggestion of a psychic cocoon by Professor X. But if she jumped into Scott's mind, then she jumped back out when he released that huge blast of energy at the Lake. Then she 'lets Scott in' and Dark Jean pulls him into her mind, leaving everyone to think he's dead.

    Further evidence is shown later on before Professor X dies when he's pleading with Jean to 'let him in'.

    Finally, when Jean is finally killed by Logan at the end of the movie, she could simply jump into his mind, allowing her to shed her Dark Phoenix persona by letting it die with her body, only to let the real Phoenix, Jean in full control, to later rise from the ashes. Her final words to Logan are "Save Me." (Like a file in Logan's brain/harddrive.)

    There's no way they can't bring these three characters back. They're too important to the continuity of the series. You'd be eliminating Cable, Sinister, Apocalypse, and a ton of other really great storylines that could be retold with a minimum of loose threads.

    Also, I think the 'Last Stand' thing is more of a pun on the death of Charles Xavier. Right before he dies, she telekinetically pulls him to his feet and suspends him in the air. This would have been his 'Last Stand' against the Dark Phoenix as he's pulled into Jean's mind. I predict that when he returns, he'll be healed, able to walk again, and back to looking like proper Picard with reduced powers until it's later revealed that his immense telepathic abilities are whats actually causing his paralysis.

    Once Marvel finishes work on its own production studio and can move away from traditional Hollywood values, I'd say they'll be pumping out sequels like they do comic books.

    Actually, I've been thinking about starting one. I've just read "The Language of God" by atheist-turned-Christian scientist Francis Collins, and he makes some interesting points (as well as gives Dawkins a well-deserve slap behind the head). I've been thinking about discussing it with people around here.

    But for sure, I won't have time as long as the Phalla game is on.

    There are many tendons which can be cut. Each set solves a different problem effectively.
