Each color represents one of the five major continents of the world.

No Klaus its regions of the world. So blue is Oceanic, meaning the ocean.
That way if Atlantis is ever found they will have been represented, wether or not they participate. :)

Re: The New and Improved Trivia Thread
As stated by others, the colors were chosen because every flag in the world contains at least one of them. The NUMBER of rings (5) represent the five continents (not counting Antarctica of course).

Re: The New and Improved Trivia Thread
That's correct. Every flag's colors are represented here. The only exception is white, which the rings were flown on originally.Originally Posted by Alladania

Re: The New and Improved Trivia Thread
Its not that every flags COLORS are represented. Its that the rings include at least one color of every flag in the world as I stated.
For instance there are several flags with orange, but its not represented in the olympic rings

Correctamundo Clueless! In Paradise Lost, Pandemonium was the place in Hell where Satan and his minions hatched their evil plans.
Your question Clueless?

Re: The New and Improved Trivia Thread
The movie "point of no return" was based off an european movie. What is its title? And if you know, what is the name of the actor playing the protagonist?
Clueless? I don't think anyone has a good answer for you.

Just a stab here, but if Point of No Return was about the female junkie/hoodlum recruited as an assassin, I think the European version was La Femme Nikita. It's been years since I've seen the latter, but I think the male protagonist was played by the same guy (whose name I never recall) who played the antagonist (bad cop) in Jet Li's Kiss of the Dragon.

Aye think you're right to link it to La Femme Nikita (The Movie). I have that DVD. I'm not gonna go refer to my DVD lol for the male actor.
I think Bridget Fonda was the actress in the US version.
Good memory Tantalyr.
Very good! La Femme Nikita is correct.
The actor playing Nikita is Anne Parillaud. Very difficult follow-up question
Well, you're next Tantalyr.
