Time Bandits Trivia Questions

1. What is the name of the boy who accompanies the time bandits on their adventures?

From Quiz
Time Bandits

Answer: Kevin

The time bandits enter Kevin's bedroom through his wardrobe. At first the bandits are frightened by Kevin's flashlight, mistaking the glow for the Supreme Being. Once they realize Kevin is just a boy, they attack him. The Supreme Being appears, demanding, "Return what you have stolen from me. Return, return the map. It will bring you great danger. Stop now". To escape the ever-approaching giant glowing head, Kevin helps the bandits push his moveable bedroom wall. Kevin was played by Craig Warnock.

2. The bandits were initially demoted to which of the Supreme Being's departments?

From Quiz Time Bandits

Answer: Repairs

The bandits helped the Supreme Being with the creation of the world and the universe. Their new position involves the use of a map to repair holes in space and time. But the bandits have a better idea: "You see, to be quite frank, Kevin, the fabric of the universe is far from perfect. It was a bit of a botched job, you see. We only had seven days to make it. And that's where this comes in. This is the only map of all the holes. Well, why repair them? Why not use them to get stinking rich?".

3. Who is the first historical figure the time bandits encounter?

From Quiz Time Bandits

Answer: Napoleon

The first time hole brings the bandits to the battle of Castiglione in 1796. The bandits, who describe themselves as international criminals, perform a song for Napoleon: "Like the wallpaper sticks to the wall Like the seashore sticks to the sea Like you never get rid of your shadow, boy You'll never get rid of me. Me and my shadow Strolling down the avenue. Me and my shadow Not a soul to tell our troubles to. We fit together And when it's twelve o'clock, we climb the stairs. We never knock, cause nobody's there. Me and my shadow All alone and feelin blue." After the show, Napoleon develops an instant affinity for the bandits because of their small stature, and appoints them as his generals. In this capacity, the bandits are able to infiltrate his palace. They wait for him to overindulge in wine, and proceed to steal whatever they can, including his golden hand. Napoleon was played by Ian Holm.

4. Who is the self-proclaimed leader of the time bandits?

From Quiz Time Bandits

Answer: Randall

Randall: "Do you want to be leader of this gang?" Strutter: "No. We agreed, no leader." Randall: "Right. So shut up and do as I say." Even though the bandits have no "official" leader, Randall positions himself in that role. The late David Rappaport played Randall.

5. According to Robin Hood, what haven't the poor got to rub together?

From Quiz Time Bandits

Answer: two pennies

Robin Hood (played by John Cleese) insists that the bandits meet the poor, who will be receiving the riches they stole from Napoleon. "Oh, you must meet them. I just know you'll like them. Charming people. Of course, they haven't got two pennies to rub together, but then, that's because they're poor." He proceeds to call forth the poor, who receive a piece of Napolean's wealth, and a punch in the face by Robin Hood's sidekick.

6. After he obtains the map, the Evil Genius will have an understanding of many things. Which one of the items below does he not mention?

From Quiz Time Bandits

Answer: cd players

Evil Genius: "When I have the map, I will be free, and the world will be different, because I have understanding." Robert: "Understanding of what, master?" Evil Genius: "Digital watches. And soon I will have understanding of videocassette recorders and car telephones. And when I have understanding of them, I shall have understanding of computers. And when I have understanding of computers, I shall be the Supreme Being! God isn't interested in technology. He knows nothing of the potential of the microchip or the silicon revolution. Look how he spends his time: forty-three species of parrots! Nipples for men!"

7. Who is the King that the young boy meets in ancient Greece?

From Quiz Time Bandits

Answer: Agamemnon

King Agamemnon is the leader of the Greek forces during the Trojan War. Kevin is thrilled to find himself in ancient Greece, and asks Agamemnon if he can stay permanently.

8. Which doomed vessel do the bandits fall onto?

From Quiz Time Bandits

9. The Evil Genius is controlling which bandit's mind?

From Quiz Time Bandits

Answer: Og

The Evil Genius influences the bandits through mind-control to bring them to his Fortress of Ultimate Darkness, in order to procure the map. Og, who is the strong silent type, suddenly has an idea: "There is a place where we could find the greatest thing a man could want. The goal of everybody's hopes and dreams. The most fabulous object in the world".

10. In which age do the bandits encounter Winston the ogre?

From Quiz Time Bandits

Answer: Time of Legends

Winston and his wife live aboard a ship, which, as the bandits discover, is the hat for a giant. Winston pulls aboard the bandits in a fishing net. Winston's wife intends to make the bandits into dinner, and orders Winston to put them into a large cauldron. Winston, who has an extremely bad back, has trouble picking up Kevin. Kevin tells Winston that he knows a way to help his sore back. Winston ends up overboard, along with his wife, thanks to the cleverness of Kevin!
