I can go for the pizza block. I strongly agree with NAH's opinion that we really should use a "Pseudo-GAK!" block of some kind for the second, though. If you don't like the two already presented, I'd like to hear some others of that sort. -- Pteryx

The Pseudo- Gak can easily be inserted into "Game Over":

I vote for my version of the phone call:

I do like standback's Game Over idea better than mine, though: Quote:

^Agreed

This is one place where I'll gladly go with the majority:

^Works for me. :)

I'd buy that for a dollar! Um, I mean I vote for that combo as well.

I would like that combo too

Smith: Game Over, Mister Anderson.
Neo: Pseudo-GAK! Matrix: 9 CREDITS. CONTINUE? (Y/N) -one thing... as opposed to Tank, Neo actually dies but comes back to life, so "Pseudo-GAK!" doesn't really work. So how about "GAK?"? that might work better... Smith: Game Over, Mister Anderson. Neo: GAK? Matrix: 9 CREDITS. CONTINUE? (Y/N) |
I dunno. I don't think it really makes that much of a difference either way. Sure, just plain "GAK!"may be more a more technically accurate reflection of the film, but the whole "pseudo" business makes a good running gag, plus is a nice sort of commentary on the writing if you care to analyse it that deeply; sure, we all know he dies, but even when watching it for the first time, did anyone actually for a moment doubt that Neo would somehow survive anyway? A subtle critique of inevitable cliché, if you will. :D

point...
but still... "Psuedo GAK!" seems wrong for some reason... |
Near-GAK?
Not-quite-GAK? Almost-GAK? Gatac |
Almost-but-quite-entirely-unlike-GAK?
I just like 'GAK?' I see it as... Smith: Blammers! Neo: GAK? Morph |
Almost-but-not-entirely-quite-unlike-GAK?
I just like 'GAK?' the way I see it... Smith: Bang! Neo: GAK? Morpheus: GAK? Trinity: That means I get to bring him back to life if I kiss him -something based on that... |
GAC!, maybe?

"Almost-GAK" might work, 'cause then we've got a whole The Princess Bride thing going on.

Yeah? Well I know something you don't!
(also I agree) |
Hmm... I still think "Pseudo-GAK!" is best for running gag purposes, but something else could be used -- if we make it clear that he's misremembering:
Neo: Uh, crap, how did that go?... Um... Almost-GAK! Though I also like whoiam's take on the "9 Credits" block. -- Pteryx |
Agreed!
Also, you must have tea and cake with a *KillerGM has been shot before he could start making Eddie Izzard referances* |
