[h2]Bruce Kills Zed (Pulp Fiction)[/h2]
Bruce has a long history of being a somewhat reluctant badass. He doesn’t really want to fight people all the time – it just sort of happens to him. He’s the guy that just wants to go home to his wife and kids for Christmas. Will they let him? Of course they won’t. So he has to kill everyone.
Case in point: Bruce’s sequence in Pulp Fiction. The poor guy only wants to get his Dad’s watch back, but instead he winds up found out by the mob boss he screwed over (Ving Rhames), then imprisoned by crazy hillbilly rapists. Great. But after Bruce escapes and can get away totally free, y’know what he does? He goes back to save Ving Rhames. With a massive samurai sword and a LOT of blood. By the time Bruce gets through with him, Zed is really and truly dead, and Bruce has his motorcycle.
Having the option of hundreds of different weapons and choosing the samurai sword to enact righteous vengeance on the bad guys? That’s pretty badass.
