Henry Cavill being sharp as a tack

I need more of this, please.

That's it. That's literally every smart thing Henry Cavill has ever done. The power of selective editing.
125
If we combined all his dumb moments and smart moments, would it be a balanced video?
8
If we saw all of Einstein's smart and dumb moments it would be mostly dumb moments. Even genius only shines for so long.
2
True. Except for Cavill.
2
How about "guess the bicep game"
9
Yeah, that's a weird game.
4
Guess the bulge

Hide the pickle
3
If I were gay or a girl, I'd make a Twitter just to send Cavill thirst tweets.
... Shit, I might go do that anyway.
42
Shoot your shot
13
Blow your wad
3
Yeah but have you seen him build a PC?
39
Pretty sure he missed his super man call because he was playing WOW.
He knows how to build a computer.

lol, no. I've worked in IT for 15 years...you VASTLY overestimate the technical ability of the average person.
7
at this point
Unless you were soldering chips to boards in the 70s/80s, its been that way for a while.
5
The majority, that's right 50%+, of people are computer illiterate, meaning they cannot send an email or draft a document on a computer.
You live in a bubble (we all do), you should really endeavor to understand just how small that bubble is.
I would wager a max of 20% of people know how to build a PC, and it's probably half that or less.

Maybe anyone on Reddit. But I doubt the average person would even be able to list off all the parts they need to buy.
4
Speed chip, stick stuff, thing where you put the Windows, screen, keys, pointer mousey thing, desk, chair, speakers, computer box, wall plug and screen plug.
I think I got it all.
13
Trying to explain RAM vs hard drive to someone looking to buy a laptop and why they don't need to max out everything to send emails.
5
I did it with my Girl Guide unit a few years ago and none of us had ever done anything like that. We did the most basic build you could possible do and literally bought a book called "Raspberry Pi for dummies". We were pretty pleased that we managed to get it to work even if it took us a few tries. All of the parents though thought that we were basically doing black magic fuckery when I told them we were building/had built a computer. So yeah, it definitely isn't something that everyone knows how to do right off the bat!
3
People always say this but there's electrical grounding, there's knowing the RAM lanes to get dual channel, there's putting the m.2 drive in the correct socket to get PCIe 4.0 speeds, there's knowing that putting an m.2 drive in a socket might disable a SATA drive because they share bandwidth, there's knowing that you need an intel motherboard for an intel CPU, there's knowing that you need an AMD motherboard with an AM4 socket in order to use one of the newer Ryzen chips, there's knowing a whole lot more shit than just putting stuff together.
And sure, most of it is in the manual or an easy seach sure, and you won't face all of these dillemas, but this "it's literally like a big lego set" meme needs to die.

There is no electrical grounding. Those other things are in the motherboard manual under installation, that everyone needs to read.
1
well he only built one for the first time in 2020... and he was asking chat for advice on what to do next sometimes, and things like, do i do this next?
so while he has built one, its a new skill for him.
6
I've neglected incredibly important parts of my life to play WoW and I have no idea how to build computers. I do have some pretty cool mounts in a game I haven't played in years though so that's nice.
2
Woah that Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy one was crazy. There's no fucking way I'd have gotten that at all
31
I thought it was Inspector Gadget
25
I went with The Equalizer.
2
Same here
1
I haven't seen the whole video, but he's promoting a spy film and the answers all seem to be spy films, so that would narrow the choices down a bit. He's still fairly sharp though.
14
Ah ok that does narrow it down a lot I suppose
1
I did but I guess I'm just a cut above the rest just like henry.

Do you have a mouth?

2
I did it as well, so maybe you and I should go steady.
2
Yeah it's a tricky one because the tool ones are all relating to one word together. I was able to piece it together when I realized there wouldn't really be a movie title with three tool words in a row. Once you realize those three are grouped it's pretty straightforward.

Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy
It's quite wholesome that movies are a passion for him also outside of his own works. I don't feel bad as I just don't care for the cinematography that much these days and I had no idea this movie existed or what it's about - doesn't help that back in 2011 I would mostly know the movies by their Polish titles (those that I wouldn't watch myself). Hell, even these days I hardly ever watch movies that aren't sci-fi or fantasy.
2
I don't know what a tinker tailor is let alone a soldier spy.
1
I got it pretty much right away lol. It was just listing out professions.
-11
Oh, you think you're smart, huh? You think you can leap ovah a building in a single bound, huh? Oh, smart guy ovah here, thinks people mistake him for a bird or a plane. You go into phone booths, don't cha smaht guy? Give me a break.
8
I actually got it pretty fast as well, which is funny because I still have no idea what happened in Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy
1
Yeh, I've never actually watched it lol, not that I can remember.
1
From what I remember, it was a fairly straightforward spy thriller but it's taken a bit obtusely. The crux was they were trying to root out the mole in the organisation who was feeding them false info
1
Yeah, it came out when I used to work at a movie theatre. When it was super slow I'd check out large chunks of movies and basically watch a whole one in a shift. Tinker was definitely not a good movie for that.
1
Here is Scott Eastwood playing the same game.
24
Oh god, he's dense.
14
I believe the reason why he isn't that famous is because of his personality.
2
Guy's so dense, he's like a neutron star who decided to try acting.
1
Is whoever this is a known MLS fan? Because the host said it was doable to guess names you’ve never heard of based on emojis. Like how would he have known there’s a person named car car. I’ll agree he wasn’t all there on listening comprehension once he was given a clue.
13
True.. but he couldn't even work out his own name
6
But man... those junkets*... you spend hours and hours in a chair multiple days on end... with 1-2 minutes per person and they can ask you basically anything with that time.
He very well might be... slow... but I can't fault anyone for not being good at a brain game in those circumstances.
^(*Also, to be clear, if that is the worst part of your job.... you still have a pretty great life.)
3
I have no idea who that is, and I would have guessed Car Car immediately. The guy was even saying "it's electric car just don't say electric" or "don't say small, it's just a car"...
2
Yeah after the clues I would have gotten it too. I think my point is more that the ones Cavill was doing were fun movie trivia because it’s reasonable he and the audience would be able to work them out playing along, whereas the mls soccer players isn’t fun or a good game unless he is a fan who would reasonably be able to work it out without a million hints.
1
Agree that it's not fun/good if not a fan of the subject, but they were all easily answerable. I don't follow MLS (don't even know what it is) or any other football/soccer but I still answered them all.
1
Wow, it's like he sounds like he knows words, but doesn't actually understand that he is speaking them or something. That man is dumb. The host had to literally feed him the answers. lol
11
I thinks he sounds tired as hell and kinda not into the game too much, which is understandable, press junkets seem like hell to me
17
Him confusing East and South then saying he did well after being asked how he did tells me he's not always in the room.
9
He was clearly joking saying he thinks he did well...
0
Got the impression he just wanted to answer generic questions about the movie then get it over with.
7
Crib -> Cot seemed like kind of a stretch in his defense unless that's a brit term for it.
6
Cot is more of a British term as is Vid as a short for VCR tape. And Donair or Doner as a term for Kebab is also a regional thing as well.
Honestly I think after the first stupid one, he just quit giving any fucks.
8
That was painful
5
Yeah, he took a while to catch on but not being a soccer fan, I wouldn't have gotten most of those either...
2
I'm sitting her thinking all those cards suck too... What a stupid game.
2
gosh he is so dreamy
15
Thanks

Yeah, her and Cavill were in that shitty "Enola Holmes" movie.

Huh I thought it was good.

You should check if you have COVID-19, I hear a lack of taste is one of the symptoms.
-9†
I'd downvote you for your opinion. But that was a pretty sick burn.
8
Well aren't you just a little cunt
7
What a fanastic burn.
1
I saw the preview for that and thought I could really go for a Cavill based Holmes movie.
2
I'm a big Sherlock Holmes fan. Books, tv, movies, games. That movie was a spit in the face to ACD.

Uses Axii

Watched him say the last one five times and I still have no idea what he is saying or what it's supposed to be. Captions say "tinker tailor soldier's butt."

Tinker tailor soldier spy

Never heard of it... I guess it's just me. Thank you though.
3
It's a movie based on the book by the same name by author John Le Carré. And no problem!

Who's the jerk that wouldn't stop saying junk answers? He was throwing off my focus and I wasn't sitting next to him. I hate people like that.

Mad props for knowing Carpenters "The Thing".

I like this guy more and more every time I see him!
2
can't believe he got tinker tanker solar spite
2
Is this really how my mom looks at me when I answer Jeopardy questions before the contestants?
2
He's just so great. I love that he's a huge nerd. I want to see him do a show on Warhammer or something lol.
2
I'm feeling pretty good for having gotten the Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy one almost immediately. I actually started doubting myself because it was taking them so long.
I didn't get a single other one but still...
2
I need more of this, please.
1
That's funny, I have the same face (not good looking) when I am in deep thought, and less noise definitely helps. I can 100% relate to that comment, "You're just saying words", is a classic response for his and my way of thinking, that spouting out words hoping to hit something is almost like cheating.

I mean it works in dating.

When you roll high in every stat.
He's out there on New Game +
If it makes you feel better about yourself, just imagine he rolled a 1 on peen size.
In all seriousness, I doubt that would detract from the experience much. Look at that guy!
Not if the unit is meter?
I knew it. Typical Adeptus Custodes player.
I was always a little jealous of one of my best friends. Super handsome, d1 athlete, very intelligent, navy officer, wit and sarcasm always on point. Just a commanding presence. I just hoped there was some great flaw, like micro penis.
Well, I was recently packing up his sock drawer (short story not worth telling or relevant to this story), and low and behold, magnum condoms.
Fuck you dude. Fuck you. Love you...
seriously! that guy is basically unfair, ridiculously handsome, very intelligent, humble and overall a great guy. Like how do you top this dude?
You find out he also owns a liquor store and pizza place
Seeing all his other qualities: he'd probably own a pizza place which actually makes a decent salad.
Ah, but here's where a finger curls on the Monkey's Paw: he's so handsome, smart, humble, and great that no partner could possibly match him, and so he's doomed to forever feel in every relationship that nagging doubt of "Am I just settling for this one?"
Maybe he's on grindr

The man is 1 / 101 trillion.
Like a maxed out fallout 4 character.
This seemed more like everyone else rolled low in intellect. If you know your movies, these weren't really difficult.
