In Response To: Pathways influences... (PerseusSpartacus)

: ...or vague resemblances?

: In Robert Zemeckis's 1984 film, Romancing the Stone , there is a scene in
: which the main protagonists are digging underneath what was once a small
: puddle. Their dig reveals a statue which closely resembles the Easter
: Bunny. One of the characters (can't remember who, but I think it was the
: one named Jack Colton) says something like "Is this someone's sick
: idea of a joke?"

: On Happy Happy, Carnage Carnage we find the Easter Egg at the end of a
: long hall. Examining it reveals the following text: "Although you
: don't have any formal schooling in the morphology of bird's eggs, you get
: the distinct impression that this is someone's bad idea of a joke ."

: Hmmm... "bad idea/sick idea of a joke". Strike one! Remember that
: we're looking at an Easter Egg and an Easter Bunny. Strike two! Also
: keep in mind that Romancing the Stone is an adventure movie and Pathways
: into Darkness is an adventure game. Strike five! "Three, sir."
: Strike three!

: Also, in the same scene of Romancing the Stone , the characters crack open
: the rabbit statue to reveal an emerald. Interestingly, this emerald looks
: similar to the Emerald found on Lock&Load .

: Is all this a coincidence...

: ...or is it the real deal?

I've been looking for an online version of the script to verify this quote. But no luck. Anyone got a verification source?

Also, isn't it a heart shaped emerald in Romancing the Stone?

Cheers
Hamish
