I want to see a ghoul Frank Sinatra singing on the strip with the rest of the Rat Pack, who would also all be ghouls.

That would be awesome, maybe it could be a giant wooden horse that has collapsed and if you have a strength of ten you can move it and there is a body with a large pack underneath.

How so? I thought it was better than like any of the releases at that time.(the dvd release I didn't catch it in theaters)
Spoiler
Hitting a cat at 90' with a bow & arrow, while blind and wearing a gas mask was a real break in the suspension of disbelief for me. I liked the middle of the film a lot, but the beginning and the end were too Hollywood IMO.

The Salton sea style reinactment of an assassination of a president.
This time with molerats in wigs and dresses on a stage rigged up like an oil platform.
While a bunch of high legionaires one obese without a nose are dressed up in tribal outfits shooting as many guns as possible into the rats, as a mini nuke goes off and blows everything up.

The movie svcked because the main story was based on religion. Also I knew that Eli was erm, you know, before I saw the movie.

I think that I read something about the Space Jockey race trying to use the Aliens as weapons, but they failed at it and the Aliens killed them all. Maybe the SJs were trying to invade Earth? I don't remember the exact details.

I would also like a shotgun called "Boomstick."

Or something that references The Stand. Field of roses, maybe? Or a dead body with 2 special revolvers.

None of that bothered me in the least ~(erm... I don't know what "erm" means in this context).

An update on Goris would be nice.

Come on, Obsidian, throw my favorite character a bone.

Oh and a crashed vertibird, dead enclave troop and a yellow reactor key card.

You can't craze on a reference. Plus, I doubt they're the first.

That and Boomstick is a common slang term for gun.

I almost want a Kenny Rogers The Gambler reference. You would just find a body with the note:
1. Know when to hold 'em
2.Know when to fold 'em
3. Know when to walk away
4.Know when to run
5. Never count your money at the table

I'd like references on what is/had happened to the other areas around the world. Like, it'd be good to know if Australia was still up and running, or how badly so and so got hit etc. A bit of info on the outside world.
