Um actually, Nosferatu is an old word meaning "vampire" and is part of the film's full title "Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror". The actual character's name in the film is Count Orlok.

as soon as Orlok showed up, i knew everyone was gonna get it wrong. i just wasnt expecting Trapp to as well

[@Nairnpeters]

Yes I'm glad someone else caught that too. Putting down count Dracula would have been more accurate then Nosferatu, because he is based on Dracula and was what they call him in some of the releases of Nosferatu

Raziel, a name pronounced terribly here, is no longer a vampire like the titular Kain or his brothers, but is now a wraith, having been executed by Kain. He no longer subsists on blood but by reaving souls, much like the wraith blade attached to his arm named Soul Reaver. Through time travel shenanigans, Raziel is the actual spirit trapped in the Soul Reaver too.

[@matthewbullion7935]

[@SimonMoon5]

Um actually, when Alan Scott first made his ring, it was not just ineffective against wood. It was actually only effective against metal. At least, that's what we were told. Then, since Alan kept getting clobbered by wooden objects (he could protect himself against metal bullets, for example, but not a baseball bat), the limitations on his ring slowly changed. Of course, even when it was only effective against metal, it still let him do other things, like walk through walls (and of course, the walls were not made of metal). But he tended not to use the ring much early on in his career. He was more of a generic action hero, punching people a lot. In fact, he often did a maneuver which was a clear ripoff of the comic strip character "The Phantom". Just as the Phantom would punch someone so hard that his skull shaped ring would leave a permanent imprint in someone's face (which Mythbusters later proved was impossible), Alan Scott would punch people and leave a permanent impression of his green lantern shaped ring.

[@KelpTheGreat]

I don't know how Mythbusters went about testing that particular idea, but I really want to believe they just straight-out punched a dude in the face while wearing a ring, and called him every couple of weeks to ask "hey that impression gone away yet?"

7:45 I love the fact that you keyed in to that particular chapter Amy! On top of everything else that makes it great, it was the most heavily edited chapter when Tolkien went back to bring "The Hobbit" in line with the cannon of the Lord of the Rings trilogy he was in the process of writing. He shifted the "Riddles in the Dark" chapter from a surprisingly cheerful exchange with a much nicer Gollum over, what was then, one of many harmless magical rings in a magical world to an exchange with a twisted creature over what was the single most powerful and corrupting artefact in Middle Earth! Definitely a tonal shift for the book in that chapter.

Um Actually Spike is called William Pratt. Also known as William the Bloody, although he does not like to advertize that the full title is William the Bloody Awful Poet. Spike is a nickname.

[@jb888888888]

Um Actually many vampires in the Buffyverse take on a new name when they're turned. William Pratt -> Spike, Liam -> Angelus, etc. Darla was turned so long ago she doesn't even remember her human name.

[@RabblesTheBinx]

@@jb888888888 Um, actually, William didn't take the name Spike until much later. Hell, Angelus and Darla only took new names because that was a thing in the Master's coven. Once they left his employ, they didn't give a damn about their rules. Giles theorized that it came from his preferred torture method using railroad spikes, but it turned out, like the nickname "William the Bloody", to be a reference to his terrible poetry, stated to be "so bad it'll make you drive a railroad spike through your own head". Also, fun fact: "Liam" is actually a short form of "William", so Angel and Spike actually share a first name. That also means that Buffy had at least three different love interests in her life named William.

Um, actually, "The One Ring of Power" isn't the answer to any of the riddles between Bilbo and Gollum. "What have I got in my pocket?" is a question, *not* a riddle.

[@russelljohnson7004]

"Doozer ennui" is the phrase of the year.

[@KickyFut]

I really, *really* love this show! I hope they can figure out how to do it in the now times...

[@amalaspina]

Um actually, Raziel was formerly a vampire, but in that picture and every time you play as him, he is actually a Wraith.

[@crystalwolcott4744]

Title of Words should be called "A Bowl of Mac and Cheese" because it fits the format perfectly and I love it

[@xiongrey19]

Um actually: “RAH-zee-ehl” Sounds like Samael, Rahmiel, and angelic sounding names.

[@FulcanMal]

Yeah, that pronunciation hurt me. Man I miss those games.

[@sleepinghermit7778]

Umm actually Raziel *IS* an angelic name, it's from the Kabbalah.

[@xiongrey19]

Yep, didn’t mean to sound like it wasn’t. I meant to have “other” in front of “angelic”. The Angel of secrets it i remember correctly.

[@sleepinghermit7778]

Yep, literally translates to "secret of God". Got to love that.

[@aljanssen7748]

Demi nailed it with the Tom Waits joke! It really does sound like his lyrics!

[@ChinmaiNaregal]

Give us Brennan dammit!!

[@ryanlee2935]

love how Trapp insisted on video game representation for Name That Vampire but left comics (Morbius) out in the cold

[@andersonjoshua18]

Um, Actually... there are only 9 riddles; 'what have I got in my pocket?' is not a riddle.

[@timmyhkvt]

It is definitely not a proper riddle, but both Gollum and Bilbo treat it as one, so it counts as an orderly part of their game.

[@porgiepuddinandpie]

amys laugh is everything to me

[@Gravefalcon]

Um actually Raziel is a soul reaver in this picture, he's not a vampire anymore by that point

[@draken882000]

Also, we should tell him it's pronounced (Ra' Z' elle).

[@bcj7064]

Um actually Raziel was always the soul reaver, due to some time traveling timeliness bullshit

[@user-ns5zn1zl1z]

Id argue that a soul reaver is a kind of vampire or at least he is given how he eats/ heals

[@gyishin]

@@user-ns5zn1zl1z this

[@blindbeholder9713]

*Wraith, he was always a soul reaver.

[@Crobinso2508]

Wolves of the Calla is amazing. You're dead to me, Jared Logan.

[@SentiNel090]

Um ACTUALLY, Raziel is not a vampire in this picture anymore. He turned into a soul devouring wraith after spending centuries at the bottom of the Abyss.

[@SentiNel090]

Also, you totally butchered the pronunciation. The stress is on the Ra.

[@micahstarnes3327]

I'm the same way! I'm almost 30 and have not seen a full episode of the Simpsons. I know The Simpsons is hilarious, and I know I love the show; but because of when I was born watching a full episode feels like rewatching family guy.

[@marclemieux4902]

I really hope that the champion of Um, Actually gets the power to retcon one thing in Um, Actually's lore, so future contestants have to put up with awful fanfic, too.

[@ejgoldlust]

My favorite Ned Ryerson trivium (or, um, actually, tidbit) is that his two best known roles are for playing someone who doesn't remember what happens from one day to the next (Groundhog Day, Memento)
