You gotta stick with this one for about 20 seconds before it gets good.

Also, this recent AVGN episode mentions Spezi:

(I suppose, since it's Pepsi, that they shoulda gone with Schwip Schwap.)

I always liked it when AVGN uses the game review as a setup for a short film at the end of the video.

(It was apparently big news some half a month ago that some crazed fan drop-kicked Arnie, but I just found out a couple days ago.)

What's that guy yelling after he dropkicks Arnold? "Help me" is pretty clear, but the second part isn't. Kind of sounds like "I need the cotton candy."

I'm pretty sure he's saying, "Help me! I need a Lamborghini!"

If it were a scene from a mid-aughts action movie, it would be part of a scenario where a mob boss has some poor schmuck of a gamer's family held hostage, and the schmuck has a short time to perform a series of escalatingly ridiculous tasks--all designed to follow a video game's basic structure--before his family is executed. Why a mob boss? Why video games? I dunno. Maybe the mob boss's kid got teabagged by the gamer. Maybe the kid was humiliated and killed himself.
Somehow, a Lamborghini is involved. Probably some sort of GTA Lamborghini-jacking task. Unfortunately, the man is in a Lamborghini desert, and he despairs. He despairs, that is, until he finds out a car-rich celebrity is in town. Maybe. Just maybe.
He seeks out the celebrity. He finds him. Security is tight. He shouts at the celebrity, but his cries are drowned out in the din. He has one shot. He dips into his gamer reserves for a solution. No. No. No, that won't work either. All of a sudden, he has it: the Liu Kang bicycle kick. That'll get him over the guards. It's not a move that gives him a lot of control, granted, and he'll probably keep pedaling until he lands his blow, but the celebrity in question is famously tough, and time's a-wastin'...

If that were the scenario, mission accomplished! I love Arnold's tweet after the fact: he thought it was normal "jostling of the crowd". What else would the model T-100 say? lol

I dunno, but I imagine Matrix would say something dad-jokey like "Drop in again sometime!" or "I guess he got kicked out!" or "Like a Lamborghini to the slaughter!" or "That was no mean feat!"
