I’ve seen too many “type of men” uquizzes full of guys that I have never heard of and who were overwhelmingly too young to even be considered mildly intriguing to me. so here’s one for the daddy kinksters and old men lovers.

Limitless: Eddie Morra [ENTJ]
UNOFFICIAL TYPING by thembtitruth
Extroverted Thinking (Te): Eddie is constantly on the move, ambitious above everything else. He dominates his environment, organizing people and facts alike to suit his plans. He remarks at one point that if he isn’t moving forward, he feels like he’s going to explode. His desire to “shake up the free world and get things done” outbids any of his other drives and motivations. He doesn’t seek to understand, to balance, or to experience beyond his tireless pursuit of execution. Te assimilates current information into a common thread into which new data can be integrated and from which insights into the behavior of data can be extracted. If this doesn’t ring a bell, nothing will.
Introverted Intuition (Ni): The power behind Eddie’s brilliant analytical and executive skills is his incredible memory and pattern recognition ability. These are powered by intuition. The strong auxiliary perceiving function organizes information: here it is, here you go. It also creates these flashes of insight, like the one Eddie has in the water, about the solutions to problems and the content of the future. Ni allows Eddie to recognize the man following him despite seeing that man sparingly over the course of the movie (long term and therefore introverted). It even supplies Eddie with the metaphorical and analogous style of his monologue.
Extroverted Sensing (Se): This perceiving function gives Eddie Morra his athletic aptitude as well as his loves of aesthetics and experience. It compels him to seek thrills, like bar-hopping, sex with random strangers, fights on the subway, jumping off of cliffs, driving and nearly crashing cars, and many others during the movie. It also gives him his love of fancy suits, fancy perks, fancy parties, a fancy view, and otherwise fancy fancies. He is compelled to exercise in order to appear athletic and to command his immediate environment. Because this function is eclipsed by a powerful judging function, many of the moments of Se involve its support of Te. This would include his noticing the loan-shark gazing at him through his window, his attention to the color of the suits of his body guards, his perception of the wardrobe details adorned by Carl Van Loon, etc.
Introverted Feeling (Fi): Perhaps the least noticeable of Eddie’s functions and of the functions of ENTJs as a type is the inferior feeling function. ENTJs experience this through inexplicable adherence to trivial customs and virtues that don’t seem to be fueled by Te and through short, irrational phases of extreme sentiment. Eddie experiences the latter with respect more to his relationship with Lindy than anything else. Despite no tactical advantage, he seeks her companionship soon after getting his life back together. He often talks admiringly of her and does the best he can to protect her. In many ways he seems to love her. Of course, this function is the least developed and least understood in ENTJs, and that inferiority manifests in ethical lapses. These include Eddie’s propensity for murder, manipulation, infidelity, and self-destruction. Only the former even stirs Eddie’s Fi, and even that fails to cause any long-term upset in Eddie’s life.
Note: Eddie is often incorrectly seen as “untypable.” Firstly, NZT is famed to produce the “perfect type,” and since no type can possibly be better than any other, Eddie must be all types at once. Well, no. Of course not. Any feeler will tell you that. The show also clears some of this up. Brian Finch is a clear ENFP both on and off the pill, implying that NZT has no effect on type whatsoever. Just for thoroughness, let me go through some of Eddie’s proposed types: ENTP, ESTP, and INTJ. The first one occurs because ENTPs liken themselves to super geniuses often and see Eddie’s amazing information processing as a sign of Ne. Unfortunately, this is a symptom of widespread ignorance about the behavior of Ni by Ne users. Eddie’s pattern recognition is too slow and long-term to be Ne. ESTP is not too bad. Eddie clearly demonstrates his sensing side, is not overly moral (ESTPs are the most likely to be psychopathic of all types. Just look at the PCL-R and the reason for that will be obvious), and has manipulative tendencies. As celebrity types even points out in a clever infographic, ESTPs and ENTJs are often confused for one another. Eddie is not an ESTP, however, because his need for stimulation is secondary to his ambition and because his analytical process is clearly Te and not Ti. INTJ is a pretty good bet. After all, they share the same functions in basically the same order. What makes Eddie ENTJ instead of INTJ is his extremely powerful Te and his attention to Ni. People tend to be more aware of their auxiliary functions than their dominant functions, since the dominant functions seem to just be a fact of life. Eddie often remarks about his intuition, memory, and pattern recognition, but rarely discusses his executive caliber and ability to formulate extensive and effective plans. He also works far more in the open than in the shadows as INTJs are prone. This is a sign of extroversion.
