About This Quiz
Are you an honorable swordmaster or a deadly shot?
Weapons have existed throughout the history of mankind and they have had an unmistakable impact on all of humanity as a result. Weapons have helped humans to: create tyrannical empires, ignite revolutions, destroy rivals, and bring freedom to the oppressed. Since weapons have been so influential over the millennia, then it stands to reason that they would also have a noticeable influence over art as well. Poems and ballads about highwaymen like Robin Hood have been penned; stories have been written about magical weapons and futuristic firearms, and now the cycle continues in the age of filmmaking.
The film world has a wide variety of weapons. Some more realistic films like "The Godfather" and "Dirty Harry" will feature real-life weapons, such as the Colt AR-15 and the Smith & Wesson Model 29. On the other hand, Sci-Fi or fantasy tales will feature magical or technologically advanced weapons like lightsabers and the Trident of Poseidon. Are you a movie buff? How well do you think that you know some of the film's most iconic weapon wielding characters? Don't let your guard down and let's take on this dangerous quiz!
