Botticelli 2009!

DQ: Are you American?

IQs
Did you play the latest version of a character driven mad by looking into the time vortex?
Despite being the leader of your country, does your wife get more media attention than you?

I am not American

I’m not John Simm
I’m not Martin Sheen on the West Wing ? Shot in the dark there

I’ve never really watched the West Wing, but I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt and change the wording of the question slightly (John Simm was correct though):

Despite being the (non-fictional/actual) leader of your country, does your wife get more media attention than you?

I was going for J. D. Salinger

DQ: Are you an alien?

IQ: Are you a shriveled evil old bastard out to rule the universe?

@Wash : … take a DQ, will ya ? :slight_smile:

@Johnny Q : I’m not an alien. Neither am I Darth Sidious a.k.a. Zappy Palpy a.k.a. The Emperor

Do you work with a Russian for your father’s brother?

Do you liken yourself to a gadfly?

Were you one of the lawyers on the “Dream Team”?

French President Nicolas Sarkozy, whose former model and singer wife, Carla Bruni, is still a much greater focus for the paps than he is, even in his own country.

I’m still drawing a complete blank on who this is, so I’ll just try narrowing the nationality down a little further - Are you European?

Sorry, that was me. 2 Dopers, 1 Computer is always a problem…

Were you the president of three different countries and the congressionally-sponsored dictator of a fourth?

Are you an alternative rock guitarist who shares his name with a national capital?

IQ: Are you a grainy superhero?

May I first take a minute or ten to bash my head against my desk ? Cause the first thing I thought was “well, there’s Carla… but that’s a B, not an S” :smack:

I am nominally European, or of European descent. My exact nationality is a difficult question to answer.

@Worm : I am not the Sandman
@seodoa : hmm I’m not Carlos Santana ? Is Santana a national capital somewhere ? If not, take a DQ, and another for the multiprez

@Sternvogel : I’m not Shapiro, nor am I Socrates
@Johnny Q : no idea, take a DQ

Ok, time to limit the field further with some more sports questions (yes I know I’m evil and should jump into a volcano, but still… :D)

Are you a striker who’s nickname is "The Little Rabbit?

Are you a midfielder in the Swedish national team who went from playing in the Premier League to playing in the top Swedish division (and kept your national spot)?

Are you the greatest pole-vaulter of all times?

Are you the current world-record holder in the high jump?

Time for some research to cull this trend. If we tolerate free DQs for sports questions, soon enough there will be only sports questions. Why do you hate Botticelli, Worm ? :slight_smile:

I’m not Javier Saviola
I’m not Anders Svensson
I’m not Sergey Bubka (that one I knew, too !)
I’m not Javier Sotomayor

Joey Santiago, Lead Guitarist for Pixies, shares his last name with the capital of Chile.

Simón Bolívar, held the office of presidente in Gran Colombia, Venezuela, and Bolivia. He was also appointed to the post of dictator of Peru.
DQ:

HOLY SHIT THAT’S LOUD LIGHTNING!

(not a DQ, but, seriously, just about peed my pants)

Were your movies made in the United States?

Has the actor portraying you remained the same?

I’m just running out of other S’s; it’s true!

Seodoa, have a nice thunderstorm over there, have ya?

Ok, no more sports for a bit (making me think, which sucks :frowning: ):

IQ: Were you the elected President of your nation, but got killed in a military coupe-de-etat?

My movies were made in the US
The actor has remained the same.

@Worm : well, I don’t think Saddam would really count, so have a DQ if he wasn’t the droid you were looking for. I mean the guy you were thinking of.

Salvador Allende was the elected President of Chile, until Pinochet too power.

DQ: Do your movies follow a set story which goes throughout all movies (eg. Bourne)?

IQ Are you an infamous, most entertaining Pirate who’s made deals with Davy Jones and kissed a Swann?

Yes, my movies follow each other’s story. Because I’m CAPTAIN Jack Sparrow, savvy ?

Congrats to Worm !

*Does victory dance, waving his hands in the air!

Who da man??*

Well, the initials are:
