Though they should have made a game
So, I know this is a gaming discussion site, but sometimes we must divert our lives from such wonders as Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath and Mercenaries to watch silly movies on TV like The 6th Day with our friends named Dan. On this particularly fateful day (yesterday), a new favorite movie line ever was bestowed upon me, and I would like to share it with you.
To set the scene, the main bad guy (some jerk in a suit, head of an evil cloning company) has finally captured Arnold Schwarzenegger (who was cloned himself - or was he?) with the help of his henchman and henchwoman (who have both been killed a couple of times throughout the movie and been recloned). Bad guy is explaining to Arnold that he is actually the clone (!).
Bad guy: "[Henchgirl], how many times have you been cloned?"
Henchgirl (sassily): "I dunno, I've lost count."
Bad guy: "You see [Arnold], we keep track of what generation a clone is. We leave a small mark on the inside of your lower left eyelid."
Arnold: "!"
Henchgirl pulls down her eyelid to reveal four small marks.
Bad guy: "She's been cloned four times."
Movie goes on as usual, i.e. awesomely. Brilliance, no? She lost track of four!? Four fucking times? Man, best thing ever. Now, back to videogames.
