MimeWars
Like Robot Wars, but with mimes | |
There is a caged arena.
Inside the arena are mimes equipped with radio-controlled prosthetic weapons, like Goonies-style mechanical boxing glove arms. Or rubber chicken guns.
Each mime has another mime on the outside of the arena controlling the prosthetics attached to the inner-mime.
The
inner-mimes are free to move about as they see fit, but only the outer-mimes can activate the weapons.
Many mimes enter. One mime leaves.

I'd prefer the last line read: Many mimes enter. No mimes leave. |
|
|
This should be more like that Bum Fights obscenity. Using drugs and cash, streetmimes are goaded into pitched battles with one another. If either one makes a noise he or she automatically forfeits the pay. |
|
|
Would you really need a cage? |
|
|
What if the mimes go berserk and break free from the
cage? Think of the bloodbath! Maybe they should have
shock collars just in case. |
|
|
Wouldn't they only pretend to fight? |
|
|
What if two imaginary winds from opposite directions kept blowing them away from each other? |
|
|
There is also the possibility of one climbing an imaginary rope to safety. |
|
|
Besides, you would never know when one was really hit. Don't they paint tears on their faces, and fall down for some unknown effect alot? Maybe this is just mime wartime strategy. |
|
|
If a mime falls in the arena and there is no one around to not hear it, do they still not make a sound? |
|
|
I like the pretend fight thing from [phoe-phoe]. What a great skit that would be. A midget mime standby could hold up "SOCK!" and "WHAMMO!" signs like in the old Batman. |
|
|
(I think it's pronounced, "fifi".) |

Mime Wars are an excellent idea. Especially since mime is an age old art that has very kindly gone out of fashion. In this case, I think it should be mimes vs. clowns. The winner of that heat would then compete against chihuahuas. The winner of that heat fights pigeons. And so on. A truly epic contest. |

Did they have a hard time learning sign language? |
|
|
<british english>Blast, I thought that Bum fights link was going to be something a lot more interesting. </british english> |
|
|
[nichpo] I would definitely have to agree there. Thought it best not to check at work though... |
|
|
You might be happier with the link I just posted... |
|
|
thanks for the link [alx]. I don't feel half as lonely or wierd now. |
|
|
k_sra, clowns can beat mimes any day - it'd be no contest. |
|
|
Oh yeah? What about chihuahuas? |
|
|

I would very much like to see stage magicians thrown into this (I mean the uninventive types that keep doing the same old tricks just with slight variations). |
|
|
I would very much like to see Paul Daniels thrown anywhere.....other than in my direction. |
