| "Whoops!" | |
|
(Knocked) Down But Not Out This film had a whole huge plethora of good "Whoops"es. Here, we have the typical henchperson-shoots-ally scene. The woman baddie shoots the black cop, but Sela clobbers her from behind. Only trouble is, the woman drops, but CLEARLY keeps her eyes open and WATCHES Sela move away from her. I suppose it's possible that the character was just stunned enough to be harmless instead of unconscious (as is customary), but I think she simply believed she was off-camera at that point....

Mask | Hat | Snake-on-a-String Steele has rented a mini-tank (don't ask) and is proceeding to blow away the baddies. But the guy he got it from (the grey-haired man with the anti-tank gun) is in cahoots! The guy seems to have the amazing power to manifest any headgear he desires, in any position. First his blast shield is down. Then it's up. Then he lifts it up again. But wait, there's more! Next, he's bareheaded, but then he's wearing an instant cap! After that, the bad guy goes over to the tank to shoot Steele, only to find Three-Step...ON A STRING. I was rather dismayed to discover that it was somewhat hard to see in the 2nd-generation copy I have, but it's clear as day in the original. Anyway, Three-Step bites the baddie, who then bites it himself within three steps, cheesily counted by a hidden Steele.

| Acting Appropriately Stupid | |
|
I'm So Pissed, I Don't Need a Gun To Kill You The main baddie Kwan is getting away, and Steele is in pursuit. He's got the guy dead to rights. He can shoot him any time. But no. Steele decides to take on the Ultimately Evil ninja swordmaster by putting down his gun. How noble...and Appropriately Stupid.
