Zombie Meme

I saw this on my internet travels (here to be exact)  and decided to share:

You are in a mall when zombies attack. You have:

1.) One weapon.

2.) One song blasting on the speakers.

3.) One famous person to fight along side you (Historical or Fictional).

What are your choices?

 

1. A Baseball Bat.  I'll go with Rich from the above link. More free range of movement, less chance of it getting stuck in someone, less chance of hurting yourself. But I'd make it a steel bat. Steel bats don't splinter and break as easily.

2. Something by Evanescence. I'd say "Bring Me To Life" but that would be a bit to self-referential to the situation at hand. Maybe "Sweet Sacrifice" or "Tourniquet"

3. Wow. Like Rich, I can't just choose one. Here are my top three:

Bruce Campbell as Ash:

 

Which really is a no-brainer.

John Wayne as he was in pretty much all of his movies:

 

I mean, let's face it. He always played a mean, onery S.O.B. He was good with guns and if he had your back, you back is had. Who wouldn't want the Duke by their side as the face down the zombie hordes.

Obi-Wan Kenobi, sometime between "Phantom Menace" and "Attack of the Clones":

 

To start, he's a Jedi, which is nice to have on your side when you're fighting zombies. The zombies get too close? A wave of the hand flicks them away. Heck, he could send a display rack flying into a group of zombies from across the mall. On top of that, he has a sword that could cut through anything. ANYTHING.

And this was a tough choice. Anakin/Vader you can't trust. Luke, Mace Windu? Not really sure how good they are. Yoda? I could fight zombies with Yoda. But I wan't this particular version of Obi-Wan. One not that far removed from the guy who was jumping up and down waiting for his shot at Darth Maul but schooled enough to kick some major ass.

Honorable Mentions: Alexander the Great, Genghis Khan, Dirty Harry, Wolverine, The Incredible Hulk, The Bride from Kill Bill 

Looking at this post, this might be the geekiest blog entry I ever written. And, good lord, have I written a lot of geeky blog posts.
