20 Questions With A Lanternologist - Jim

So while the other guys don't have to do this, I thought it would be a fun thing for the forum. 20 questions for a particular Lanternologist. This thread is for me, Jim Ford. I'm going to say keep your questions limited to 2 each, and I cap it at 20. Questions can be about me, the cast or general Green Lantern stuff. Fire away!

What is your social security number?

13. I've always found that number lucky for me.

3. If there was a live action (New 52) New Guardians movie, who would you pick to play the original line up? (so no Atrocitus or Carol, although I would also be interested in knowing who you would like for Atrocitus....)

4. Who would you pick to play Atrocitus in a live action movie?

5. Why is your name Choanata?

6. Where did you meet Lauren?

That's only 5 questions.

I was going off of Odinson's numbering.

3:New Guardians:
Kyle-Zac Efron
Glomulus-CGI voiced by Dan Castellaneta
Bleeze-Rachel McAdams
Fatality-Kerry Washington
Saint Walker-Jason Statham
Munk-Mickey Rourke
Arkillo-CGI Voiced by Mickey Rourke, but digitally modified.

I'll post a blog on the website late explaining my choices

4: Conventional wisdom would tell me Michael Clark Duncan. So if he lived in a world separate to the GL movie, so there was no Kilowog overlap, definitely MCD. Set in the same universe as the movie, I don't know if it would work well, but I'd be curious to see how Jeff Bridges did in the role. He brought some good rage as Clu in Tron: Legacy. Maybe give him a little echo effect and alter his voice to sound more guttural.

5-My name isn't Choanata, it's Jim, silly!

6-The first time we met in person was at Dave and Busters, and it was an outstanding date. But as for how we met, Match.com!

6. Why?

7. If you could be a green lantern for a day, what would you do?

Spaceflash wrote:6. Why?

6-Sorry Spaceflash, only sometimes Why. As in who, what, where, when and sometimes why.

7-When I drive my car and someone cuts me off or are just driving crazy and dangerous, I kinda wish I had a ring to create a giant croquet hammer to joist boink them off the road with tremendous force. They would surely die from it.

But if I just had the ring for a day, I would use it to fly into space and do a scan for the closest technologically advanced race. Fly there at warp speed and borrow some super high tech device. That way even if I lose the ring, I have other cool gadgets to keep me occupied.

Maybe I'd save a life too, but only if they were in danger and I happened to be nearby. I'm like classic Hal, I ain't going out of my way to save some jerk. They gotta be real close. I have parades and dances to go to, lol.

There are no stupid questions, just the people that ask them! lol

I can't remember if I knew you guys met on match.com


7. Why're you so damn ugly?

9. What is your favorite curse word / curse phrase?

7-You only think that because I'm holding up a mirror every time you look at me.

8-It's a conditional thing that needs to be evaluated for each occurring.

9-Well James Lipton, that's a tough one. I don't think I have a 'favorite' actually, As much as cursing is a part of my vocabulary, I don't take particular enjoyment from any particular word. I probably favor 'fuck' more than others though, due to it's versatility. As far as non-curse words go, it's a toss up between robot and monkey.

10. What's Your Mother's Maiden Name?
11. What's the Name of Your First Pet?
12. What's the Name of the Town You Were Born in?

(And Thanks for letting me open up a credit card in your name!)


Those are not serious questions, just felt like I had to do it!

Well, since they aren't real they won't count towards the 20. But:

10: Earhart. She had me just before she took off.
11: Clifford. He was an amazingly huge dog. Like, bigger than a house.
12: Let's go with Coast City for this one.

You tend to favor "fucktarded".

That really is a fantastic curse word. Fucktarded. Without the social stigma of saying "retarded", but conveys your frustration even better.
