Line 134:
'''Steve Rogers''': Right. I caught his act in Stuttgart.
'''Tony Stark''': Yeah. That's just previews, this is... this is opening night. And Loki, he's a full-tail diva. He wants flowers, he wants parades, he wants a monument built to the skies with his name plastered... Son of a bitch. }}
* Knowledge of the [[Trope Namer]] gives the hero one in [[Indiana jones and the Dial of Destiny]]''. Indy and Helena are in the outer part of Archimedes’ tomb, which is, of course, your typical [[Temple of Doom]], with a chamber that floods with deadly (and foul-smelling) methane gas. The chamber has a pool of water next to a Statue of Athena, goddess of wisdom and war, plus several metal weights near her feet. Indy realizes that Archimedes was most famous for an experiment involving water displacement, so realizes that he has to simply shove the weights into the pool until it overflows, and the entrance to the tomb proper (with no gas) is revealed.
** At the end of the movie, Indy inadvertently [[The Gump| helps Archimedes himself]] with another Eureka Moment, his discarded watch making the artificer realize how to make the eponymous mechanism work.
