So, your watching an action show or movie and the main character is getting chased around by some assassins or something in a big city right? my question is why don’t they just start going towards wherever has the most people possible? (I know it’s scripted, but wouldn’t that make much more sense than to keep running farther away from people who could help you?) even if the bad guys have guns or are trying to kill you, If your surrounded by people, scream help, tell people your being chased, bring attention to the bad guys who are CHASING YOU. they don’t have to know the reason WHY your being chased. am I just thinking too hard about it or what 😭 like if I’m being chased I’m going into the busiest place possible so people can SEE what’s happening. they don’t know who is in the right, all they know is there’s some person being chased by scary looking other people. I don’t know, it allways bothers me when watching shows. I guess if the assassin’s are desperate enough they’ll just shoot you in a giant crowd of people, but STILL!
