Good film, but we've never needed a reason for swordplay. Twelve years
ago we had the moment in a firefight where the PC watches the last
visible Bad Guy fall, and changes magazine and move up... until someone
throws an AK-97 out, and walks out behind it drawing a katana.

"My name is Ito Tamazaki. I regret that I am not permitted to let you
pass."

Now, you could just shoot him... but he knows that too. And you _know_
you're being watched.




Real Life says that the way to win a swordfight is to bring a gun, in
fact more than one gun, better yet several friends with guns... but SR
works well when played for style rather than hardcore reality.
