People watch you. Judi Dench keeps talking. "Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah. Can you help Riddick?"How do you respond?(I) don't care!(W)ho cares?(S)crew you!
>I
"I don't care!" "Good so we can rely on you then!" Judi says.

FUCKING SO OTM
god I wish more games I mean movies I mean philip K dick adventures I mean games would let you just get a package with your entire inventory in it right at the beginning
I mean imagine how boring the film would've been if we had to follow Ben Affleck around while he COLLECTS the watch, the fortune, the paper clip, the bullet, the stamps and the lens and the ball bearings and the half dollar coin and the infragoggles and the cigarettes and the matches and the etc. Oh wait, that's why I don't enjoy text adventures/interactive fiction/Sierra bullshit!!!

The phone is ringing. The screams of your family emanate faintly from it as you reach feebly for it.
>TAKE OFF SHIRT
You take it off.
>USE SHIRT AS A TOURNIQUET; SAW OFF LEG; SCREAM UNINTELLIGABLY;GET GUN;LOAD GUN;SHOOT VOYEUR
Man, that would be great.

There was a moment when Ben Afleck opened up a car bonnet to look at the engine, the engine was trashed and he looked at it and said "The engine looks like it's been flattened with an industrial presser" (or something similar), which just sounded like the result of an 'examine' command.

If I were rich, I would love to spend my days creating obsessive artifacts like that. Trying to think of other works that could be recreated in a similar fashion...
