English language help - pretty please

Or I should rather say - cultural reference. Because I too often lack those, for obvious reasons =)

One of my prompts for art_bingo is JACK FROST.

First thing that I though of, was the movie. But the guy there was simply a snowman, right? I thought it would be a litle too easy, so I read "jack frost" Wiki page and then googled it, for a good measure. And ended up knowing even less than at the beginning.

So, when you say "Jack Frost" - what you actually mean?

Well... I always pictured him as a fairy type sprite with icicles hanging from him... a little bit like the one in the Santa Clause: The Escape Clause (3rd?) movie :-)

I didn't see any of the Santa Clause movies... But this sure looks interesting =) And thanks for explanation.
