Not exactly the keenest observation in the history of observations, but I've noticed a marked tendency for the protagonist and main villain in anime series to be an INTP and an INTJ, respectively. A few examples that come immediately to mind:

Spike Siegel and Vicious (Cowboy Bebop)
Daisuke Aurora and Shun Aurora (Heat Guy J)
L and Light Yagami (Death Note)

However, I have to lodge a disagreement over Picard: he's totally an INTJ! He spends all of his time in his ready room unless needed and is described by other characters as being "a very private man". He also takes all of his leave time for trips focusing on solitude and reflection. Another good example of an INTJ good guy is Admiral Adama. INTJs are the villains so often that it's good to see a few good guy INTJs as well...

Does anyone think Indiana Jones is an ENTP?

I've always thought of Indy as an SP. What makes you think J, Natrushka?

I just figured ENTP because he's not entirely a thrill seeker. I always thought of his adventures as focused on the big picture rather than the adventure itself. He's definitely got purpose behind his adventures.

And no, there is no way he's a J.

J = decisiveness. The "Get it done" quality. Although thinking back to the state of his house in RotLA and his obvous disrespect for the rules... I am chaging my mind. He's probably a P.

Most sites (I just checked) list him as an INTP or ENTP, btw.

What about Ted Danson as John Becker in the show Becker? I labeled him as ENTJ.

We shall never know, as Mengele was killed by the dogs of the young Hitler.

Why did the young Hitlers look like emo kids? (And don't bother showing me that Hitler "Original Emo Kid" pic -- I've seen it already! :P )

And the real Mengele died of a stroke/drowning.

And he was alive when The Boys from Brazil was made.
