   STREET PHILOSOPHY #4: Unofficial Rules For Fantastical Combat:
I wrote this up one day at school when I was bored last year. This covers any sort of fighting you will see in movies, television, or video games. I think it's all rather true.


- Smallest guy = toughest guy.
- Big, strong guys are only good guys if they have a tremendous sense of humour.
- Big, strong bad guys tend to be the 2nd-to-last boss.
- 2nd-to-last fight is always slightly gimmicky/harder than the final "skill" fight.
- Bad guys always have tons of lackeys.
- Final fight shall always be won by the good guy - unless it's just really, really, really close (and bad guy turns out to be not so bad).
- Final fight is only won after a special technizue/weapon/realisation is used.
- It's okay for the good guy to get beat up a bit during the beginning of the battle.

- Female fighters always kick ass.
- Female non-fighters are always capable of taking out a couple guys through imaginative use of their surroundings.
- The cute, Asian girl can always kick SERIOUS ass.
- Steel railings are insanely good cover against bullets.


This is only half of the list I came up with . . . I had a lot of time on my hands that day, you see.
