Not as smart as you might think but I've still got it

So anyone who knows me will be aware that I'm a big fan of the movie 'Braveheart'. Yeah yeah I know it's VERY loosely based on real events and that Scottish history got a serious dose of Hollywood treatment, but it's fucking brilliant. Fact. Here is some proof:


Look at that face! Classic Mel. Anyway, I've seen it about 20 times at least, so imagine my dismay when I did a trivia quiz on it and only scored 11/20. Actually, I say that but it's still better than 50%. Yeah? You think that's shit? You try it then smart arse and see how you do...click here to accept my challenge.

Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, now thats's a different kettle of monkey brains entirely (in joke alert). I know it line for line, having watched it every Saturday afternoon since the age of six until about oooh 11? I still try and watch it at least twice a month in some capacity, in fact I'm planning on putting it on this afternoon, lest I forget the dying words of Indy's other side kick when he gets shot by one of Lao Che's henchman. Just kidding, he says 'This time Indy, I go first...quark' (I added the 'quark'-death chortle?)

So I know what you're thinking at this point, where on Earth is this going? I can tell you with all honesty I don't know. So I will end this post with a picture of Indiana at his best and a poem about two of my favourite films.

If you look carefully you can see that Steven Spielberg's  right arm is really a trouser leg

Two really awesome film characters

William Wallace has a blue face
Indy's face is always dirty
Who would win in a fight?
Neither because they are both awesome
Instead they would combine 
The result would be William Jones
Possibly the most extra-ordinary human being to roam the Earth
But with the most ordinary name
This was a mistake
