FAQ:

Are we talking about a single entry or a franchise?
In some cases we're talking single entry (Dumb & Dumber) but in others we are talking an entire franchise (Resident Evil). Check what's in the parentheses next to each entrant.

We are exclusively looking for officially released entries into each series in a single form of media, i.e. "The Simpsons" only covers the TV series and not the movie. "The Beatles" only covers music that was released on their albums and not quotes from interviews or their movies.

I don't like the quotes you chose! There are better ones!
Post them then! I am choosing popular examples to jog peoples' memories. If an entrant makes it to the next round I will change it up and I'm always taking suggestions.

If you want to rally for an entrant you feel strongly for feel free to post some quotes itt. I don't mind the free bumps.

How do I vote?
Uh, by posting. You can vote in both matches or just one. You can vote once per match. I feel like I shouldn't have to post this but I am anyway.

Yesterday's Results:

(1) Resident Evil > (8) Silent Hill
22 to 1

(5) Rocky > (4) Zelda CD-i
15 to 7

Oh boy! I'm so hungry, I can eat an octo-Rocky!

yes I did workshop that one all contest. there's nowhere we can go from here. I'm cancelling the contest. don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past, you must fight just to keep them alive.

In all honesty I'm kind of surprised neither joke CD-i entry went anywhere. These things commanded the early internet. You couldn't go two videos on YouTube without hearing "I CAN'T WAIT TO BOMB SOME DODONGOS." I guess that type of humor didn't age as gracefully as Yu-Gi-Oh Abridged.

Also I'm happy Silent Hill showed up. I dunno if horror game SFF exists in this setting but Resident Evil is shaping up to be a powerhouse. It's REALLY powerful. But can it escape its own division?

Uh.... let's see.... off the top of my head....

"With Marizpan's radish we're gonna win the competition"
"I was raised by a cup of coffee"
"You killed my brother! I mean, my computer!"
"You all understand! I mean, don't understand!"
"ARE YOU ASKING FOR A CHALLEEEEEEEEEEEEEENGE"
"Licensed video games are never good" (This one was said in his licensed video game)

You gotta understand that I haven't rewatched most of these in a long time. Hm.... oh, last one for now:

"You can't get ye flask"

Homestar Runner

The influence of Homestar Runner is underrated. It had a big role in shaping the 'tone' of early internet content
---

I recently rewatched like a hundred Strong Bad emails over the past few weeks, it was one of the reasons I decided to do this contest

I haven't watched Homestar content in the past decade or so, but it's absolutely surreal being able to basically quote like a quarter of the content of those SBemails. I didn't even realize that some of the things I say regularly are just old Strong Bad quotes lodged in my brain.

If anyone likes podcasts there's a really cool one called What a Cartoon where two guys go through the history of every cartoon ever made and talk about what makes them all unique and special. They did a pretty good episode on Homestar Runner and the Brothers Chap:

As spectacular as "All your base" is, it's only the dozen or so lines it compromises to literally all of Homestar Runner.
