Nerd Quiz

January 10, 2007

In honour of finally getting some pictures up, I offer a quiz:

What do these Sydney locations have in common?

If anyone can give me the correct answer in the comments below, I will smuggle you an honest-to-God dead kangaroo that I found at the side of the road. Get thinkin’!

Here’s a hint: I don’t really expect any of you to get this, but if you were me, you’d totally get this.

    Are they all filming locations for the Matrix?

  2. graemepowell Says:

    That’s what I was going to suggest as well.

  3. Beal Says:

    Yeah, well. Yeah.

    But did you base that guess on actually recognizing those locations, or just because you know me?

    Perhaps phaze two of the quiz will become “name the scene.” Don’t worry; the kangaroo is still too big to be shipped off anyway; another week of decomposition and it’ll be ready to go.

  4. James17930 Says:

    I recognized the bridge.

  5. graemepowell Says:

    I was going purely on knowing you. That and it was a nerd quiz, so I felt obliged to say something.

  6. Beal Says:

    The bridge, huh? I was expecting the fountain would be the easiest to get, or possibly the two buildings, for fans of establishing shots. The last one I wouldn’t think anyone would recognize, including myself.

  7. nick Says:

    The bridge is where Neo “Mr. Anderson” stops and talks to trinity for the second time. Just before he it’s the dreaded pill!

  8. nick Says:

    Eats the pill I mean!!

  9. Beal Says:

    One point to Nick for naming the scene. One point taken away from Nick for using “eats” the pill instead of “takes” the pill.

  10. James17930 Says:

    How about all points to me for getting it first?

    Where’s my dead kangaroo?

  11. Beal Says:

    It’s going to be a bit longer before I send the kangaroo out. I’ll save a bundle in shipping if I wait until it liquifies.

  12. graemepowell Says:

    Liquid Kangaroo, that could be a new sports drink or something.
