Good point. In reality, not only does the bad guy win, but the bad guy has influence with the powers that be who enact laws that make it harder for the good guy to bring the bad guy to justice.Realizing that the hero will defeat the villains in the final battle no matter what....in most instances.
Thought of your post tonight when watching something something spoiler something.Good guys infiltrate security system. Security screen glitches. Bad guy tap screen. Glitch disappears.
I can't remember which movie it was, probably one of those comedic "buddy cop" popcorn flicks, but there's at least one out there in which the bad guy starts his "Here's my evil plan" monologue and the moment the "hero" realizes what the villain is saying he shoots him in the head, then turns to his "partner" and shrugs as if to say, "What?" I wish I could remember which movie it was, because that one scene played out perfectly.Good guys that let the bad guys monologue for the longest time, when good guys have a chance to end it right there...
