Block 30 - Now get up

[NAHTMMM]

Each other and ourselves, definitely. There are still lots of good jokes we haven't touched on yet, I can feel it.

(Also, I'm rather waiting for trips and semester finals to be over before I really focus on something like this. I don't know about anyone else.)

[KillerGodMan]

^Same here

Hey, my post count says 912, that's the date I signed up (september 12) cool!

[Standback]

I promise to give the last four blocks another round in the next two or three days. Really-truly. Been busybusybusybusy - first with a Gilbert&Sullivan play, then with Pesach cleaning and a roleplaying convention. G-d willing, at some point or other, I will recall the meaning of 'free time'.

[Rayinne]

Well, I know I could do more myself, but my mind keeps drawing a blank and giving me error code LI7. Argh, if I can drop robots and princesses on things, I can do this...

[Zeke]

Drop robots and princesses on things? What game are we talking about here?

[Standback]

Neo: Un-GAK!
Smith: Kill him again! Kill him again!
Neo: Freeze.
Bullets: We can do tha-- HEY!


I'm ready to vote on most of the blocks... about time we wrap this fiver up, no? On the other hand, if NAHT and/or others will be coming back with a new wave of variations, I think we can wait a bit longer...

[NeoMatrix]

Neo: *GAK!*
Smith: Check him.
Jones: He's Dead, Jim.
Smith: Who's Jim? Have you been cheating on me?

or

Neo: *GAK*
Smith: Check him.
Jones: Well, he has a wallet with some money in it, and some picture of him with another guy next to a phone booth.
Smith: Let me see that. *Pause* No Way, Dude!

or

Neo: *GAK*
Smith: Check him
Jones: He's done. Let's go home.
Matrix: Neo has activated God Mode
Jones: Oops!
Smith: When I said check him, did you check for God mode?

[Rayinne]

Actually, it's not a game reference. It's just me being bitchy. I mentioned being from The Site Formerly Known As The Vault once, ya know. Anyway, fiving time.

Trinity: You can't be dead, you can't!
Tank: Uh, see that gauge on his vitals?
Trinity: Yeah...
Tank: It's been switched with some minimalist art. Here, let me put it back.

Neo: *UN-GAK*
Agents: DIE!
Neo: No. You didn't say the magic word.
Agents: Um, please?
Neo: Actually, I was looking for "abracadabra."
Smith: GAK!
Neo: Wow, it actually works.

Neo: JACK-OUT!
EMP: EXPLODE!
Trinity: SMOOCH!
Neo: Huh, that tasted like a red M&M.

[Standback]

Oooo... I liked the first two of those a lot, Rayinne.

[Captain Proton]

All right. this is my first attempt at FBC, so please be gentle.

Tank: Neo is dead.
Trinity: Look who knows so much. well, it just do happens that our friend here is only mostly dead. that means we can bring him back.
Morpheus: But what does he got that's worth living for?
Trinity: True love.

Agent Brown: Well boys, congradulations for a job well done. let's go.
Neo: Go on now, go. walk out the door.
Agent Smith: GASP! youre alive!
Neo: Did you think i'll crumble? did you think i'd lay down and die?
bullets: Wheeeeeee!
Neo: oh no, i won't! i will survive!

Hmm, a Princess Bride ripoff and a potentially perfect tie-in with a block with "Pseudo-GAK!" in it (yes, I think Neo should apply what he learned earlier in the fiver). I like it! -- Pteryx

Maybe even: Dammit Jim. I was thinking of 'dammit smith' first too, but I think it's still less funny.

[Standback]

Vote time!

Proton's Mostly-Dead Block (slightly revisied):

Tank: Neo is dead.
Trinity: Look who knows so much. Well, it just so happens that our friend here is only mostly dead.
Morpheus: But what's he got here that's worth living for?
Trinity: True love.

NAHT's Cheat-Code Block (slightly long):

Sentinels: Here we come...
Morpheus: Oh no. I really hoped it wouldn't come to this, folks, but I'm going to have to--
Trinity: Nooooo! Don't turn on the EMP, Neo is alive! I just know it!
Morpheus: Who said anything about turning on the EMP? Now let me concentrate...Up, Down, Right, Right, Down, Select, aaaand...
Neo: Un-GAK!
Trinity: Morpheus, I didn't know you knew the code for a 1-Up.
Morpheus: Much good it'll do Neo if I can't enter the Invincibility code quick enough.

KZiti's Necrophile Block (slightly risque):

Morpheus: Well, looks like Neo's dead.
Trinity: Really? That's kinda hot. *kisses Neo's corpse*
Neo: Un-GAK!
Morpheus: Hooray! Neo's alive again!
Trinity: You mean I just kissed an alive person? Ick! I need a toothbrush. . .

As for Neo finishing off Smith, I loved this one:

Rayinne's Magic-Word Block:

Neo: Un-GAK!
Agents: DIE!
Neo: No. You didn't say the magic word.
Agents: Um, please?
Neo: Actually, I was looking for "abracadabra."
Smith: GAK!
Neo: Wow, it actually works.

[Gatac]

I favor the Necrophile, because I'm a huge fan of Sexy Losers.

Gatac

[Xeroc]

I say "Cheat Code" then "Magic Word" are my favorites for the blocks!

[Pteryx]

My vote's definitely for "Mostly Dead", preferably coupled with a "Pseudo-GAK!" in the previous block -- though it can work with other types too. -- Pteryx

That's unanimous, then!

...no, wait. No it's not.
Multanimous?
Is that even a word?

Rayinne's Magic-Word Block:

Smith Should say Sorta-GAK! Because he doesn't really die.

Oh, I vote for that one!

[Pteryx]

I think we need more "Smith dies" blocks to choose from, so let me try...

Neo: Whoa. You're all numbery!
Smith: If you're so interested in numbers, count these bullets!
Neo: OK. *freezes bullets* One, two, three, four --
Smith: OK, now you're bugging me.
Neo: How 'bout if I Neo you instead?
Smith: To be perfectly honest I'd rather die. Pseudo-GAK!

[NAHTMMM]

Neo: Have you heard of the movie "Alien", Agent Smith? The aliens--
Agent Smith: As it happens, I have, Mr. Anderson. They tear out from within unfortunate crewmembers who promptly go--GAK!
Agent Jones: Awww man, did you HAVE to do that? We were gonna hold a surprise retirement party for him just three days from now...

^ I feel obligated to point this out again by the combination of running gag, overkill of cliche, and sheer irony...


I also like my (unfortunately long) block about Morpheus cheat-coding Neo a 1-Up, BUT: We seem to have Neo faking his "GAK!" anyway, which renders this cheat code scene contradictory, or at least confusing.


On the other hand, this pun still seems to fit:

Neo: Un-GAK!
Agent Smith: GASP! This is too stunning for me to absorb!
Neo: Here, let me help you.
Agent Smith: GAK!

I also liked

Trinity: You can't be dead, you can't!
Tank: Uh, see that gauge on his vitals?
Trinity: Yeah...
Tank: It's been switched with some minimalist art. Here, let me put it back.

and Captain Proton's Princess Bride scene, because it does fit rather nicely.
