How accurate is the movie Braveheart?
Just to add another few inaccuracy Edward longshanks wasnt an evil villain. The Scottish continuously pillaged england so he was trying to tame them and secure the northern border. As people had been since the Romans.York wasn't sacked I don't think it ever was… If you ever see yorks walls you would know why.The Scottish didnt have blue paint. That was the British back in Roman times.Kilts were not worn then by Wallace and other lowlanders. This was most likely put in for American audiences.Wallace didn't go round and kill all the lords in some revenge attack. Infact he was on the run.When executed he wouldn't have shouted freedom. By this point he had been dragged naked through the streets by his heels. Hung and cut down while still breathing. Had his manhood cut off. His guts cut out and burned infront of his eyes (then at this point he is supposed to have shouted). Also they wouldn't have given him the option of a quick death as he was classed as a traitor. So the priest asking him to swear to the king and it would all end is dramatic.That said it is an amazing film as long as you watch it as fantasy. Sadly it engenders hatred from the Scottish due to its evil send up of the English. When the real situation was much more complex. In fact a Scottish king ended ruling England so the Scottish were not downtrodden peasants even at this stage when the film is set.
Who is your favorite movie character? Why is that character your favorite?
Oh. there have been so many meomerable characters accross generations. For me, it is very difficult to pick one. However, I have one all time favourite. And he is none other than: CAPTAIN JACK SPARROW from PIRATES OF THE CARRIBEAN. Jack Sparrow He's Charming, Witty, Smart, Funny. He is tracherous and mostly survives all his odds using his wit and negotiation skills rather than by force! And, Johnny Depp has lived this character like anything, he portrayed the character in an off-kilter manner and has just proved again how versatile an actor he is. This is his famous line - "Gentlemen, m'lady, you will always remember this as the day that you almost caught Captain Jack Sparrow." that he utters usually, he eventually escapes saying this! Marvellous! The other characters which have been admiring me since are: 2. IRON MAN/Tony Stark - Robert Downey Jr. 3. BATMAN/Bruce Wayne - Christian Bale4. SPIDERMAN/Peter Parker - Tobey Maguire5. WOLVERINE/Logan/James Howlat - Hugh Jackman6. JORDAN BELFORT - Leonardo Di Caprio - Wolf of wall street7. Admiral General Haffaz Aladeen - Sacha Baron Cohen - The Dictator8. Billy Costigan - Leonardo Di Caprio - The Departed9. Ethan Hunt - Tom Cruise - Mission Impossible10. James Bond - preferably Daniel Craig (Haven't seen the earlier ones).

Top 10 movies of the 21st century?
Avatar - Now, personally, I didn't enjoy this movie, but it was technologically advanced and visually stunning. Brokeback Mountain - Beautiful, sad, well-acted, and groundbreaking. I don't think much can top it. The Departed - This movie had everything - talented cast, complicated and engaging plot, masterful directing. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind - Another film with a great cast and a truly original plot. It showed a lot of Kate Winslet's and Jim Carrey's range. Finding Nemo - Great tale with even better visuals. The computer animation was so detailed. It's one of the most graphically beautiful films I've ever seen. Inception - This movie was just so creative and fascinating. I was sure it was going to be overrated, but once I watched it, I was converted. It was a great film! Little Miss Sunshine - Really different take on family crises and road movies, but still so genuinely funny. It's the only movie that has ever made me laugh until I cried. Moulin Rouge! - It merged the popular with the classic and revised the entire musical genre. Plus, who knew that Mark Renton could sing? The Pianist - That movie was simply one of the best biopics I'd ever seen. It shows the Holocaust's horrors so well, and Adrian Brody was indescribably good in his role. Traffic - Another brilliant cast and script. Very well-done.
Actress's Name that Played.(10pts who gets it First)?
If I am right in the movie her name was Lara...and that would make it: Ashley Scott. The Rodriguez chick was on the SWAT team and they got together in the end!
