burnie: there are things in storytelling that you just take for granted as a writer that are a big part of the culture. i also don't go in for like japanese storytelling about [fake japanese accent] "oh, that my uncle." jack: wh-what?[laughing sounds] joel: and then a giant robot attacks them. jack: [fake japanese accent] oh, that's my uncle. [static] jack: that's all star trek is.
it's putting someone on a planet, coming back and finding them pissed off. burnie: pretty much.joel: listen. yeah. burnie: that'd be a great beginning to a star trek movie is a dude just standing on a planet, watching his shuttle leave. and they leave him there. and he just goes, "you fucked up." and then he just sits. and waits. [laughing sounds] gus: seasons pass and he gets covered with snow
and the snow melts and he gets covered with flowers. jack: [laughs] burnie: and he develops his own space ship. with interstellar travel. and goes kills the motherfuckers. [murmurs of agreement] geoff: left 4 dead was great in that you're forced to play as a team. joel: i agree with you... a hundred percent. burnie: yeah, i don't really work well on teams.
geoff: no you don't. you- you yell well on teams. joel: you're good at the yelling part. joel: everyone stop what you're doing!gus: the second... the millisecond joel: i am tackled. how come you didn't respond in two nano seconds? my god. gus: the nanosecond a hunter is on burnie you headset is screaming at you. burnie: you know what? because in an apocalypse, all the matters is that i survive.
