Cal-ee-forn-ee-a Voted for Him…

IMDB's current poll is:

Only 100 votes or so separated the top four finalists in our "What recent movie star's name do you most enjoy saying?" poll last week, so we're doing a run-off. Whose name of these four do you most enjoy saying?

• Milla Jovovich
• Viggo Mortensen
• Keira Knightley
• Jake Gyllenhaal

As I write, Milla Jovovich is leading with 33% of the votes, Keira Knightley nine percentage points behind. Given the male-skewing demographics of the Internet Movie Database, I'm not surprised that the men are lagging behind, or that one key fun-to-say star name is conspicuously absent.

I remember the movie voice-over ("In a world...") guy saying, in a 60 Minutes interview, that his favorite name to say was Arnold Schwarzenegger. Ah-nold shoulda been compet-ee-tive. Well, no use crying over spilt milk or unscientific Internet polls.
