1 | * About two thirds through the sequel, Cocheta finally gets through to the military HQ and we get this exchange: |
2 | -->'''Cocheta:''' HQ! Answer, Goddammit!\ |
3 | '''Military Dispatcher:''' What? Who's this?\ |
4 | '''Cocheta:''' Delta-2! We need a pick-up near Northside Park!\ |
5 | '''Military Dispatcher:''' ''[hysterically]'' What do you want ''me'' to do?\ |
6 | '''Cocheta:''' Send a pick-up, you moron! |
7 | * One of John's lines for running over a civilian in the first game is a cheeky nod to ''Film/NightOfTheLivingDead1990''. |
8 | -->'''John:''' You bunch of yo-yos! |
9 | ** One of his lines is a reference to the famous BoomHeadshot meme when he runs over a zombie or a soldier. It also helps that his voice actor, Joshua Tomar, has a pretty similar voice to the one in the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ovsVU6mktOw classic video]]. |
10 | * The dissonance of a military chopper firing 30 mm chaingun and Hellfire missiles at you while desperately yelling: "STOP! THIS IS A MATTER OF NATIONAL SECURITY!" and "STOP! OR [[ThreatBackfire YOUR VEHICLE WILL BE DESTROYED]]!" is as jarring as it sounds. |
11 | * The first commander's gradually more frustrated responses for the checkpoint crews failing to stop Creasman. As well as the soldiers reporting it in a way that they're afraid of the commander chewing them out. |
12 | -->'''Checkpoint 1:''' Checkpoint to Base! We're unable to stop our target! It's continuing its run on Highway 65!\ |
13 | '''HQ Commander:''' You couldn't stop a single car!\ |
14 | -\ |
15 | '''Checkpoint 2:''' Checkpoint to Base! We confirm a black car coming our way. Orders are to take him out?\ |
16 | '''HQ Commander:''' Affirmative!\ |
17 | -\ |
18 | '''Checkpoint 2:''' Checkpoint to Base.,, Uhhh... the target is still going.\ |
19 | '''HQ Commander:''' ''Are you kidding me?!'' Maintain your position. The ''next'' checkpoint will handle him.\ |
20 | -\ |
21 | HQ Commander: Base to Checkpoint 4! Stop this prick, will ya?!\ |
22 | Checkpoint 4: We'll try, sir!\ |
23 | -\ |
24 | '''Checkpoint 4:''' Uh... It's a negative, sir. Target's still going.\ |
25 | '''HQ Commander:''' ''This is a bad joke!'' [[PrecisionFStrike DAMN it!]] |
26 | ** Also this exchange: |
27 | -->'''Soldier:''' Target in sight. Orders?\ |
28 | '''Commander:''' ''[[AskAStupidQuestion What do you think?!]]'' '''KILL HIM!''' |
