Question about Anthony Hopkins: We saw in Titus that he's an Emperor, and yet in Proof,
we saw he was an insane mathematician. While at the same time Silence of the Lambs says he's a psychologist cannibal, but Mission Impossible places him as the leader of some secret group of good guys for the American Government. And I've seen him in other movies, as well.

Who is he, really?

Is anybody investigating the truth of this man? Am I the only to see this?

Who, really, is Anthony Hopkins?

All these contradictory documentaries - something really fucking odd is going on, I'll tell you that much.

Probably the CIA and MI6 are both in on this.

1. He's just a seller of used books
Now that explains everything, doesn't it?

2. This video instruction should clear up any confusion.

3. That movie, Proof: it's fiction. Obviously.
I mean, he's a mathematician AND he's insane? Mathematicians are profoundly normal and well-adjusted. So the movie is clearly a made-up tale.

I'm betting that Hopkins is a cannibal. That's seems the most believable. And it best explains his appearance on Oprah.

5. All I know for certain about him
is that he's married to Shirley MacLaine and is having an affair with Bo Derek.

7. And that's another cog in this insane wheel of conspiracy.
How could he be president of the united States while an Emperor of another, different sovereign nation?

Someone had to have been working behind the scenes to let a foreign Emperor serve as president.

And he had such a long role in American politics.

I bet this goes beyond the CIA. Curious that Anthony Hopkins/Nixon shows up on the scene right around the time of JFK's assassination.

9. Well, England didn't have a problem with that when he was King Richard I
I guess being Nixon was no big deal since he had been President before - John Quincy Adams.

You'd think the newly formed USA would have been a little touchy about having a King of England be President, but perhaps that was when they decided to let bygones be bygones.

I suspect Romulans are involved in this.

11. Titus wasn't an emperor. Just a general.
A really brutal, successful general with 23 sons who all died revolting deaths, a daughter who was treated in a terrifyingly awful manner, and who killed his tormentors, had them baked in a pie and served to more of his tormentors. And then he was killed. "Titus" was not a family film...
