The Action Movie Drinking Game

by Orlando C. Fernando

May 14, 1999

The premise of this game is similar to other television/movie drinking games over the INTERNET. You must drink the amount indicated for each time you hear a quote in any action movie. This game is, of course, made up and for humor purposes only, so don't really do this at home, folks! ;)

• "I got a job to do." 1 drink
• "Back off man!" 3 drinks
• "What do you want from me?" 3 small sips
• "I'm coming back for you!" 1 drink
• "This is out of your jurisdiction!" 1 drink
• "As of now you are off this case." 1 drink
• "I'll need backup" One whole keg
• "I'm hit!" 5 small sips
• Any swear said before a one-bullet kill. 1 drink
• "But he's your brother." 2 drinks
• "You killed my brother." 2 drinks
• "My brother is dead now. " 2 drinks
• "You're WAY out of line!" 1 drink
• "I work alone." 3 drinks
• "I'm going to break this case wide open!" 1 drink
• "You're the best man for the job." 6 drinks
• "...starring Jean Claude Van Damme!" 1 small sip
• "I know my rights." 3 drinks
• "If I go, you're going down with me." 1 drink
• "That's it! That's got to be it!" 1 drink
• the words "circumstantial evidence", "trap", "parole", or "threat" 5 sips each use
• "This time, it's personal." 1 teaspoon

BONUS GAME: A challenger dares another player to make a sensible dialogues using any 4 lines above (shouldn't be too hard). For each realistic dialogue made up (realistic as far as an action movie is concerned anyway) the challenger must take 1 drink. For example:

Hero: "I'm going to break this case wide open!"
Heroine: "But he's your brother."
Hero:"I know my rights"
Heroine: "Your WAY out of line!"
