Plot-bunnies: action flicks

[marbleglove]

I have a couple of action flick type fics that I'd like to see:

(1)
In several recent action movies there have been these chase scenes which take place through apartment complexes. I'm not talking about the hallways or public areas either, they go through windows and kitchens and living rooms and bedrooms and all, disturbing various families.

Heh. And M would question his report and generally be deeply suspicious. Bond would finally cave enough to say, Look, it doesn't have to do with national security unless we make it, and we should really write off 005 as having died from stupidity. M would consider this and nod, because she didn't get to the position she was at by provoking unnecessary conflicts, and sometimes you just had to trust in your agent's discretion.

On a complete tangent:

Have you ever stumbled across the Hitman comic book?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hitman_(comics)

It's more than a bit of a spoof. The main guy is a low-level hitman in Gotham with x-ray vision but no other superpowers, and the story is about the thugs that make Gotham dangerous without being high profile enough to attract superhero attention.

But there's one scene in which our protagonist is escaping through his girlfriend's window because her family drops by for a visit, but the fire escape breaks off and crashes him into another building where a big drug deal is happening, and it all goes down hill from there.

Despite the issues involved it is side-splittingly funny. Or maybe because of the issues involved, and I like black humor. :-)

I love the dying from stupidity and I am sure that spech about taking too many risks from 007 would be both ironic and a great warning about what really took place with 005.

I had never seen the hitman comic, I think I will read some of it this weekend! thanks for the rec

And M probably calls him on it, telling 007 that he takes more risks than 005 ever did. And 007 looks his perfect suave self and points out that, unlike 005, he never gets himself into trouble he can't get himself back out of.

which in turn would make M even more curious about what sort of trouble 005 managed to get himself into, but since Bond isnt talking she cant do anything but try to find out throught backtracking his and 005 steps... and all MI6 can find is poor UK grad student who at the time of the chase had been having a beer and friendly poker game with some of his local friends
