Caption Contest 160: “What’s that whirling sound?”
Posted on April 16 2018 by Rod Lloyd
Happy Monday, everyone. It’s time again for another Zelda Dungeon Caption Contest, so let’s prepare for liftoff. I decided to experiment a bit with last week’s image, opting to veer away from a traditional Zelda screenshot and go with a silly Photoshop featuring Link as a helicopter. I personally thought the image was pretty funny, but it may not have hit everyone the same way. I get it; contestants want real Zelda images. So, to get the contest back on track, I’ve exchanged the helicopter with a Peahat.
Last Week’s Contest:
Mumbo Jumbo turned our hero into a chopper.
By: Christian Beach
By: JoJo
By: Xaragon
By: Brent McNiven
And here are our non-photo caption winners:
- Dylan: “Metal Gear Zelda: SKYWARD Chopper!”
- Matt Kitt: “I IDENTIFY AS AN ATTACK HELICOPTER
you thought the gerudo getup was pushing it?” - Cenzi Q: “Ok, Zelda DLC is getting pretty ridiculous…”
- Lifeoflink: Link: “Oh, yeah, Groose? Can you loftwing do this?”
- Jebradiah Drake: Hyrule Soliders: My lady Zelda, Link has been fatally injured! If we do nothing he’ll soon be dead!
Zelda: it’s ok! We have the technology, we can rebuild him. Better, faster, stronger!
*one week later*
This Week’s Contest:
The Running Man has cheated in one too many races.
Here are the guidelines:
- Please refrain from using offensive material (racial, sexual, overuse of offensive language, etc.) We want to make the contest fun and accessible for fans of all ages. When in doubt, keep it Nintendo.
- If you don’t have the ability to edit the image, just leave it as a comment. We make sure to have a separate list of winners for this category.
- Photo editing and manipulation (i.e. Photoshop) is allowed, but these entries will be part of a separate list of winners for this category.
- Everyone is entitled to their own opinion at Zelda Dungeon. In fact, we encourage discussion based on those opinions. However, please do not insult other fans’ work. What may be funny to one person may not hold true for another…and that’s OK.
- Have fun and be creative!
Don’t forget to check back throughout the week and upvote your favorites, and maybe you will be one of next week’s winners!
