Think of a character, and the genie will tell you who it is.

(i managed to find a couple obscure ones, but so far it's figured out Yojimbo, John Koenig, Cthulhu, and Trinita'.)

lol wow it worked.

i thought of maximus from gladiator, and it fucking got it lol.

and it just failed. i was thinking of tom seizmore's character in saving private ryan and it was wrong.

BUT ... it did pick vin diesel's character from saving private ryan lol. pretty crazy.

Pretty good as long as you don't go too obscure.
