This is not a review of Olympus Has Fallen

While we wait for Star Wars, let’s look at a little trivia re: Olympus Has Fallen.

1. As far as I can tell, this is the second movie in which Morgan Freeman has played the President of the U.S. (to be fair, in Olympus Has Fallen, he was the acting President, but so what?). The first one, that I know of, was in the movie Deep Impact.

2. In the movie 300, Gerard Butler‘s character led an army of 300 (few) against tens of thousands of invaders (many). In Olympus Has Fallen, Butler’s character (alone), takes on several not-so-nice people (many).

3. In the movie The Dark Knight, Aaron Eckhart held the political office of  District Attorney. In Olympus Has Fallen, Eckhart’s character has climbed the political ladder and is now the POTUS.

4. In the movie Die Another Day, Rick Yune played a North Korean terrorist. In Olympus Has Fallen, yup, you guessed it. He plays a North Korean terrorist.

Have I missed anything? Feel free to comment.
