If so, maybe you could think about having something personal between them.  And through out the movie you could have little parts of a flashback of what happened between the two, until it all comes together, or just have a single flashback.  I dunno if those ideas are any good, but there you go.]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[I think that the story is pretty interesting.
Here's some rough ideas:
[list=*]
[*]Maybe there should be an explanation for why or how the 'hero' got his springy legs and how the other bounty hunter got his arm.[/*]
[*]Both of the bounty hunters have these 'flashbacks' of their early childhood which they both find out later that they were best friends or they were related to each other or something like that.[/*]
[/list]

Those are just some random ideas that I thought of.]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[[quote=MMproductions] You should toss some emotion into the fight. Like make the baddy put a knife to a passerbyes throught.[/quote]

That's a great idea. Want emotion? Toss in some knife action, stir, and VOILA! Out pops some emotion!

No, but in reality, the best way to add emotion is probably not to just stab some guy on the street. The audience needs character development before they start actually caring about anything that happens.

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[[quote=Sean]My train of though is that he's not good or bad, just neutral. [/quote]
Ah, raises some interesting questions: Can someone really be neutral?  Can a person do an action which is truly neutral?  Maybe every action is either good or bad and only inaction is neutral.  Then again, sometimes inaction can also be good or bad.  Things for me to ponder further.... :)  

Maybe by neutral, your hero is really still a bad guy, but somehow better than the other bad guys.  But if he's murdering the other bad guys, then perhaps he's actually more bad than them.  Maybe by taking out the bad guys, he's performing a public service, a vigilante of sorts.  

No matter how you slice it, I think trying to present a neutral main character is going to be difficult to pull off.  And if you do pull it off, people then might not care if he fails or succeeds, which is also probably not what you're going for.]]></content>
