Marry, F*ck, or Kill #5: Last Action Hero (1/?)

Good morning lovlies. Start your morning news scan with this op ed in the Washington Post by Barack Obama. I'm loving how communicative this administration is. I'm also loving the efforts by some members of the US Senate to get rid of the 'Buy American' clause. Nice try, John McCain. Nice try. So now we're facing a watered down version of protectionism. I'm not subscribing to the CRISIS! newsletter, but I'm starting to think it's a good time to go off-grid and self-sufficient. Cabin in the woods? If only.

Anyway, it's Thursday again, which means it's time for another poll. Feverish though I am, (yes still), I've managed to come up with something that should suffice. This one is about action heroes, one in what is likely to be a never-ending series. I promise to occasionally break up the monotony of explosions and beheadings with other kinds of heats, like cookies. Maybe we'll do cookies next week...

Three characters, people, animals, vegetables or minerals are given, and you must choose one to marry, one to f*ck and one to kill. No fence sitting. No halfsies. Ya gotta choose.

[Poll #1344076]

And remember guys, I don't close these polls, so you can go back and vote in previous rounds of Marry, F*ck or Kill.

To start, I'd kill Trinity. Just out of spite. (The last two movies of Matrix trilogy, srsly?)

I'd fuck Sarah 'cause that's all the effort she has to spare while keeping John alive. (And I bet she'd be good at it.)
That leaves Ellen to marry...which is not good either but at least we'd have a chance.:)

But which Ellen? Human or hybrid?

Either?

If pressed, I'd probably have to say the hybrid. For the cool lethal!lesbian factor.:)

Quick, quick, somebody tell me enough about the Alien films and the Sarah Connor Chronicles so that I can choose who to marry and then kill Trinity.

(Sarah is hot. Maybe I'll just hope Ripley would be a good wife...)

Taking you seriously...

Ripley worked for The Company as a pilot and cargo-slinger, when her ship had the misfortune to discover a derelict Alien ship. The entire crew, excepting her, was killed. The Company wanted to preserve the Alien for study in it's bioweapons division, but Ripley managed to take it out, after a battle to the death with a Company android. In the second film, Ripley's discovered and revived from cryosleep. She tries to adjust to normal life, but no dice. The Company approaches her with a job offer - a colony has been established on the planet where Ripley's crew found the derelict, and it's gone mysteriously silent recently. Ripley joins a crew of Company Marines and Paul Reiser, to investigate. Things go pear-shaped as you might guess. In the third movie, she's once again the sole survivor, but this time the an Alien managed to implant a queen embryo in her. She dies heroically By the fourth movie she's become an ass-kicking human-Alien hybrid.

Sarah Connor starts out as a damsel in distress. Hot Guy From the Future tells her he has to protect her from the Terminator, who's out to kill her because she's the mother of the Future Messiah. It turns out Hot Guy From the Future is the Father. In the second movie, it's years later and she's Hot, due to all the training, but also Crazy, due to all the training. In Chronicles she's more stable, but she would definitely cut a bitch.

Trinity - I would have liked her well enough if there had been only one film.

WHO would kill Ellen Ripley? Seriously, Sigourney Weaver is old enough to be my mother, but I'd still totally gay-marry Ripley. Most awesome action heroine of all time, and I'll set face-huggers on anyone who disagrees.

WHO would kill Ellen Ripley?

So far? Two people would.

I'm the only person who would marry Trinity? sad. She'd make a good wife. Sarah Connor is hot but batshit insane, so it is wham bam thank you ma'am all the way, there.

Trinity goes through a sharp decline in the second and third films, but then everyone in the Matrix films does.

I think I've actually blocked those two movies out. :)

I stopped at the second one. I've only seen bits and pieces of the third. Ignoring trash is so working out for me - I don't have to get worked up over it. :D
