   I have to remind myself that Scarlett Johansson's last name is spelled in Swedish, because when people pronounce it in English it sounds more like the Danish Johansen, and also other Swedish descendants in the US have usually streamlined it and removed an "s" after a generation or two, so it's rare to see the original spelling in non-Swedish media.

   I'm trying to remember her name as pronounced in Swedish, to have something to hang the spelling on.

     @clacke I'm not following. I thought her given name was "Smokin' Hot."

     @Jason_Dodd It is, but I'm talking about her Actors' Guild screen name.
