I FOUND IT ON YOUTUBE I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS HOW CAN IT BE I DON'T REMEMBER CRAVEN SHOOTING THAT MANY PEOPLE?

Their Jedburgh is in the CIA but British. Because their Craven is a Yank. IT DOESN'T WORK THAT WAY ROUND, DAMMIT.

EMMMAAAAAAAAAAAAA

SO WRONG

DON'T BLINK

LOOK JEDBURGH IS KILLING IT WITH SPOILER!

[wolfy_writing]

You're right about that. I saw The Wicker Man, and it had over-intense Christians, and Britt Ecklund, and interesting pagan bits, and Christopher Lee being fascinatingly weird, and it was awesome!

There was also a comedy trailer on the internet involving Nicholas Cage screaming at women and being killed by bees, but it's obviously too goofy to be a real movie.

Craven simply wouldn't shoot that many people. He wants to understand what's going on, and pointing guns at people and shooting aren't really conducive to that.

And Jedburgh can't be British, because if you take away all the Americanness, you lose the essence of Jedburgh.

And Emma's not going to be killed over things involving fancy security clearance, but over eco-terrorism. Because she's an eco-terrorist and on the side of good, and a threat to the people with power. The story's complicated that way.

Therefore, this cannot be Edge of Darkness. It's a bad AU fic, a coincidentally-named Mel Gibson vehicle with no real connection, a horrible prank on Edge of Darkness fans, or all three! Much more logical.

Imagine how many people their Jedburgh will shoot inna face.

[wolfy_writing]

Probably none. Because he's British, and British People Don't Do That Sort Of Thing in that kind of movie. He'll just stand around being cryptic and vaguely ominous, but ultimately a bit pathetic.

Which is a shame, as Jedburgh shooting people makes sense and is canon.

[nostalgia_lj]

He is CIA still I think, but also British. It probably makes sense to Mel Gibson.

[wolfy_writing]

It probably does. I don't want to contemplate how, but it probably does.

[nostalgia_lj]

I bet the Jews did it, since he hates them.

[wolfy_writing]

Jews put British people in the CIA?

...yeah, that's a stupid enough to work. Think the Jews killed Emma?

[nostalgia_lj]

Who else could it be?

[wolfy_writing]

Either Evil Muslims or Evil Corporations. Those are the two remaining movie villains. Unless you're talking Indiana Jones, which has just moved from Nazis to Evil Communist (genuinely nasty Soviet people, not Communism in general).
