‘Inigo Montoya’ shirt upsets travelers, leads to awkward flight

Wynand Mullins of New Zealand told Stuff Magazine that he was asked to remove his T-shirt because other airline passengers found it intimidating. And, yes, we suppose if one weren't familiar with "The Princess Bride," seeing a shirt that reads, "Hello! My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die," might be a little alarming, especially on board a plane. For the two or three of you who haven't, the movie features a character named Inigo Montoya, played by Mandy Patinkin of "Homeland. " Mullins explained to Stuff that a flight attendant had approached him before takeoff and asked that he put on a different shirt due to some concerned passengers. I thought it was all a bit silly. The flight attended apparently told Mullins she would attempt to find him another shirt, but never did, so the T-shirt stayed on.

Lovecraft's 'Herbert West: Re-Animator,' films such as George Romero's 'Night of the Living Dead' and TV shows like AMC's The Walking Dead (which returns Sunday, February 12th), but their existence isn't just limited to the page or the screen. Turns out, they walk among us. They have always walked among us. In fact, they are one of us. The history of the undead reaches farther back into our culture than you might think, and not just as the lumbering metaphor of an apathetic public or mindless society. The modern "zombie" comes from a 1929 novel about Haiti.

Behold, The Ultimate Patrick Stewart / Liam Neeson Showdown. Here’s Patrick Stewart and Liam Neeson appearing on The Graham Norton Show for a showdown of eminently likeable veteran UK actors, to be settled the only way a Picard / Qui-Gon battle could be: By figuring out which actor has the cooler action figure.

Behold, The Ultimate Patrick Stewart / Liam Neeson Showdown

There’s something extra-amusing about having two highly accomplished serious actors on the same show only to spend the time playing with 10-year-old plastic toys. It’s just surreal that you can all now witness my recurring dream when I was 13 about me and Captain Picard playing with action figures: Best part of the video?

Spies find no record of Chaplin's birth. Posted Fri 17 Feb 2012, 1:36pm AEDT A British spy probe into Charlie Chaplin was unable to find any evidence of the silent film star's birthplace, while his real name was shrouded in mystery, newly released documents reveal. MI5 agents were asked in 1952 to investigate Chaplin's background by the United States, which believed the actor was a communist sympathiser whose real name was Israel Thornstein. Chaplin, one of Hollywood's first and greatest stars famed for his 'Little Tramp' character, believed he was born in south London on April 16, 1889. But an exhaustive search by MI5 found no record of his birth anywhere, nor anything to suggest he was any kind of security risk, declassified files from MI5 reveal. "It's very unusual, particularly after investigation by MI5, for the date and place of birth for such a well-known celebrity as Charlie Chaplin to remain so mysterious," said Professor Christopher Andrew, the official historian of MI5.
