# CINEMATIC AUDIT · MINIGUN (MINIGUN, 27 Oct)

Films 25 + skins 7 = 32 kills. The cinematic samples (cine-a/b/c/d) are not counted; CLINCH (cine-d) is the bar.

**Result:** KEEP 12 (37.5%), REBUILD 20 (62.5%).
- **KEEP** = serious, brutal, not a gag; ★ (8+ on all four) or at the doorstep of it.
- **REBUILD** = a gag or comic core, map-dependent (needs one map's element), or weak (pre-8+ audits around 5).
- Rebuilt slots keep their key. A kill that leaves the rotation without a rebuild gets `retired`.

Scores are from `_tools/8PLUS_SCOREBOARD.md`, as B / C / S / A (brutality / cinematic / script / animation).

## REBUILD (20)

| key | name | rarity | why |
|---|---|---|---|
| minigun.the-trick | THE TRICK | RARE | **GAG** (the magician's sawing box, the saw a minigun). Wave-1 slot → SIEGE |
| minigun.wont-start | WON'T START | RARE | **GAG** (the getaway car won't start). Wave-1 slot → LAST STAND |
| minigun.static | STATIC | RARE | gag (the night guard asleep at the monitors); a drawn booth set |
| minigun.hold-still | HOLD STILL | COMMON | gag (the knife-thrower's act); a drawn plank-wall set |
| minigun.the-hose | THE HOSE | COMMON | map-dependent (the kitchen knife block / SHARP); gag tone |
| minigun.the-gap | THE GAP | RARE | map-dependent (GAP / DROP; owed on gapless maps) |
| minigun.skin-cartoon | THE DRINK | EPIC skin | cartoon gag |
| minigun.skin-taped | CRACKED | RARE skin | weak (pre-8+); a single-gag core (the taped barrel spits) |
| minigun.brrrt | BRRRT | LEGENDARY | pre-8+ (~5); a generic shred, no story |
| minigun.red-hot | RED HOT | LEGENDARY | pre-8+ 5/5/5/4; map-tied (the saloon lights); the 8+ rebuild was never installed |
| minigun.all-at-once | ALL AT ONCE | MYTHIC | 7/7/8/7; the multi-victim slot wants a cinematic ONE VS MANY |
| minigun.reload | RELOAD | EPIC | pre-8+; a drawn feed cover and belt gag beat |
| minigun.quiet | QUIET | EPIC | pre-8+ (the 8+ rebuild is in a work copy); a drawn brass carpet and stairs set |
| minigun.reeled-in | REELED IN | EPIC | pre-8+; the rooftop mast (a map-tied cast) |
| minigun.iai | IAI | EPIC | pre-8+; a strong idea (the sword vs the rate), but staged on a drawn dais; a candidate for a DUEL rebuild |
| minigun.the-shield | THE SHIELD | EPIC | pre-8+; overlaps the SIEGE idea, so rebuild it as something else |
| minigun.spin-up | SPIN-UP | LEGENDARY | pre-8+; the canyon wreck drawn |
| minigun.the-lure | THE LURE | LEGENDARY | The Deep only (anglerfish); keep as the underwater kill unless the user wants it cinematic |
| minigun.together | TOGETHER | RARE | pre-8+; a quiet corner execution in the cage (2 victims) |
| minigun.locked | LOCKED | RARE | pre-8+ (the 8+ rebuild is in a work copy); a drawn door set |

## RETIRE LIST

None yet: every gag above is a rebuild slot over the coming waves. Wave 1 rebuilds THE TRICK (SIEGE) and WON'T START (LAST STAND) in place. If the user wants fewer minigun films overall, the first to retire are STATIC, HOLD STILL, THE HOSE and THE DRINK.

## WAVE-1 PICKS

2. **minigun.wont-start → LAST STAND "STILL STANDING"** (scripted in `cine_wont-start_choreo.md`)
