Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] gdg for this.

You are in a mall when the zombies attack. You have:
1. one weapon.
2. one song blasting on the speakers.
3. one famous person to fight alongside you.

Included in his version was: "Weapon can be real or fictional, you may assume endless ammo if applicable. Person can be real or fictional." but I think that I'll go with the 'endless ammo' doesn't work. Just my style. Not vital, but it helps explain my response.

My responses were:

1. Large Double Bladed Axe.
2. Thunderstruck by AC/DC.
3. Bruce Campbell (I figure I want to be laughing when I finally go down...)

Goddamnit. You cannot win against zombies. Period. It's you versus EVERYONE WHO HAS EVER DIED. EVER. You sleep, their numbers grow. When zombies attack, if you try to fight back you have 100% chance of either becoming one of them or being torn apart as food. You don't win. Start making signs that read "I, for one, welcome our new zombie overlords" cauze that's what's gonna happen.

so, my answers.

1. cyanide pill
2. doesn't matter
3. doesn't matter

But aren't zombies pretty stupid? There's gotta be a way to cage them up and put them to work. (I'm trying to find the LJ entry where my pal Ray ([livejournal.com profile] 762nato) came up with a plan to lock zombies in an impenetrable room with a treadmill, with a healthy person sitting outside the box in a chair. The zombies would walk on the treadmill trying to get the braaaainz, like the ol 'donkey/carrot trick. Bam: renewable energy for the post 2012 era.)

I guess there's no need for me to find that LJ post after all.

Fuck that "roll over and die & come back" shit!

Dood, you gotta read World War Z and The Zombie Survival Guide.

General Raj-Singh didn't take a cyanide pill in the face of millions of shambling undead. And he got both a statue and a military maneuver named after him.

Ahh... too true, but where's the fun in that?

Besides - I figure that my chances are slim and none, but I'm a zombie in the end either way, so why not go out swinging?

Yeah, I saw that and instantly thought: "Ohhh... good call!"

I mostly want him there so I can hear what remarks pop out of his mouth when I fire up the flame thrower.

not to sell his facial expression short.

1. Acid-thrower (since we're allowed fictional weapons)

2. "To Sir With Love" by Lulu

3. Chuck Norris is too obvious, so: John McCain, so the zombies can't tell whether I'm with a live person or with a zombie myself

Truthfully, I somehow managed to not think of good ol' Chuck (which surprises me). I like your idea better though. And if they don't think that he's one of them? Can you say sacrifice boys and girls? I knew you could.

1. The Pope mobile (Ha! Take that! I'll be as well-preserved and safe as my birthday pie!)
2. Explosivo by Tenacious D
3. Patch (the character, not the guy IRL who sometimes goes by that name). He can regenerate, dontchaknow. Plus, I hear he has a thing for chicks with short hair.

All wins in my book!

I wonder if Patch would regenerate after he was converted to Zombie mode?

1. Proton pack (Ghostbusters)
2. "The Ace of Spades" by Motorhead
3. Hillary Clinton - I can use her as bait

1. = good call.
3. = bad call. Zombie bait requires brains.

1. Ninja sword
2. Ode to Joy
3. River (hottie from Firefly/Serenity)

But gotta love Bruce Campbell, with chainsaw-hand and lever-action shotgun.

Nice.

Didn't River Tam take out like a bajillion Reavers by herself? I'd say that qualifies as a Good Call.

1. M-71, which was that big waist-mounted machine gun Vasquez had in Aliens, so I can scream, "LET'S ROOOOOOOCK!" and mean it at least once in my life.

2. I'm torn: do I go with something superbadassssss that'll keep my adrenaline going non-stop? If so, then I choose "Get Up Again" by Flaw. Or do I go the complete oposite direction with something completely inappropriate to keep me laughing like a crazy person until the end? If so, then I choose "Dragostea Din Tei", aka the "Numa Numa" song. How fucking funny would THAT be?! Mah gawd.

3. The Risen Jesus. This way, either:
A) I get confirmation that the whole Bible thing was in fact just a bunch of hype, and he was just a normal human like the rest of us. In this case, he's useless in a fight and hey - I was going to die anyway, but now I get to die with a smile of I-told-you-so vindication on my face. OR...
B) The Riz really is the son of a God that actually does exist in an actual Heaven, and holy shit (ba-dum-bum), am I set up in the best of situations! The Riz is probably the one person who can get me out of Zombietown, probably just with a wave of his hands. Or else I still die, but I go down swinging beside the son of God, and that gets me into the V.I.P. section Upstairs.

2. Spybreak
3. Yoda

Nice. I was thinking about a katana myself actually, and Yoda? Zombie are you, or zombie you are not... there is no 'sorta'.

Plus? There's always the force push from a jedi master. Not such a bad thing to have in those circumstances, methinks.
