Rather than Shinji Ikari being a normal, well adjusted... Okay, rather than him being the canon character, what if we had the opportunity to portray him with the persona of someone different, while still keeping his physical form and personal identity?

Vote for the persona you want to see Shinji in as he goes through the original series:

1) Rooster Cogburn

2) Kyle Reese

3) John McClaine

4) Robert Neville (of "The Omega Man", not the latest "I am Legend")

5) Timmy (South Park)

At first glance, my brain combined choices 2 and 3 into "John Cleese". Can we have that instead?

Uma numba three since I don't know the rest aside for Timmy. Plus now I can imagine Bruce Willis doing Shinji's voice acting.

I'm surprised no one picked him. I mean, Reese is at least WAAAY better for the role than Mr. Die Hard.

Quoted for truth. It seems that people are running out of ideas in the fandom section...

Okay... this is just messed up... Shinji as either John McClaine or Timmy of South Park? I could see people voting for "Arubalhdurhg... SHIN...JAH!", but comparing him in the voting to John McClaine?

Is this the point where, to settle the dispute, to propose a "healthy understanding between post Bardiel Toji and Shinji" scene as an option in selecting 5?

Okay, that's it! John McClaine it is!

Tokyo-3 train station

"Due to a state of emergency, all civilians must retreat to the designated shelter areas!" the automated public address system blared as all the wildlife in the surrounding area scattered. As the tremors grew in intensity, the young Ikari found himself bolting for the nearest shelter hatch.

"Oh Shinji, what the hell were you thinking?" Ikari yelled at himself in a mocking tone. Stupidly, the boy turned to look behind him as he continued to run flat out down the road from what looked like...

A giant green foot came crashing down into the street, sending fragments of asphalt everywhere.

He would have continued to stare at the monster, but the sound of the oncoming car-

CRASH!

Shinji found himself cradling his side as he crumpled into a fetal position on the hood of the Renault, the windshield crumpling into a shattered mess.

"Oh God!" Captain Misato Katsuragi squeaked, throwing herself out of the vehicle. "Shinji? Shinji?!?"

Does Shinji...

A) Lie on the car, complaining with more self-criticism

B) Shove Misato back in the car, and make her drive

C) Commandeer Misato's car, and floor it while Misato yells directions in a hysterical fashion

D) Make up cowboy aliases while pouring 5 gallons of water into buckets

C and D both sound fantastic, really. I...kind of want to just go with D, though, for maximum ridiculosity.

edit: GGSS, instead of announcing that you don't care about a thread, don't post in it. Also you are not required to accompany your every thought with several random emoticons.

D)

He has to defuse the random N2 mine in Misato's car, so that he can later use it to blow up an angel.
