If life were a b-movie...

[Andrew]

Who would you be?  I was thinking that a t-shirt along these lines would be cool, but mainly it just got me to musing about stereotypes.

Apparently, according to friends, I am pretty much the ex-military survivalist.  Wonder if I can get a shooting jacket with "Burt" monogrammed on it...

Other options: (off the top of my head)

Victim
Spunky Female Hero
Angst-Ridden Teenager
Computer Whiz
Bit Part Fodder Boy
Old Coot
Kenny

[Newt]

Spunky Female Hero.    That's me.  Been in training all my life for that one.

[Fearless Freep]

I'd be "Computer Whiz" :)

[Ash]

Andrew, you could be Grampa from "Terrorvision"!  "War stories & monster movies are educational.  Their survival oriented!"

[Mofo Rising]

The Sarcastic Guy

Usually killed in the most gruesome manner possible.

[Goon]

        I think I would be one of those scientists who ends up with a wiggly thing stuck on his face.
         If we were b-movie characters/stereotypes, would we have the powers associated with them?  Things like off-screen teleportation, hero's battle death exemption, or survival techniques such as plot conveniences/holes and the ability to transform into a dummy/plastic doll/stop-motion perosn/cheesy CGI person right before we get offed?

I'd be the one who's seen b-movies. "Yeah, you guys go rush off into certain death. I'll do things that make sense and survive, at least until the beginning of one of the multitude of sequels, where my death would be an easy story for creatively bankrupt writers."

[D]

Hmm,
Is there any way to mix two? I'd think i'd be angst ridden old coot. Or maybe the Garbage man from Video dead.  or perhaps I'd just be like paul, and vanish halfway through the film

"Now if you'll pardon me, I must go and  save my lady love Joan Marie from the dreaded spin cycle"

[Dano]

Shady government guy who wants to cover everything up and kill the monster.  I know I'd usually die, but I'd get to wear a shoulder holster.

[Pokethulhu]

Who I'd be in an B-Movie ?

One Word :

Mike

[Bernie]

Sarcastic ethnic guy who dies with a smirk on his lips.

[nshumate]

Definitely old coot.  Been in training since I was twenty-two.

Nathan

[Gerry]

I'd probably be an early (first half of the film) victim.  But hopefully, I'd get laid before getting skewered.  I'd prefer to be one that gets killed without ever knowing what hit him than have it be long and drawn out.

[Chadzilla]

I'd be....

VICTIM

Probably the first, the one that starts the ball rolling, the tired old, hen-pecked travelling salesman whose car breaks down near the toxic waste spill and gets gulped up by a slurposaurus or dissolved by the sentient ooze or something.  I have no real skills to speak of (aside from typing and storytelling) so I gotta be a VICTIM.

[Chadzilla]

Since we posted practically identical posts (i.e. early and/or first victim) perhaps it good be a tag team kill.  One of us gets et while the other watches, then turns and runs, only to be chased down and killed by a POV shot!
