"Cutting Butter With A Chainsaw"

Yeah, But Imagine If He Were a Toon

This clip is only a sample of the shenanigans during this interminable gun battle in the Chinese chop shop. (The other "WHAT?!" clip is another.) Here, Dolph absolutely decimates a highly improbable army of bad guys in an extended firefight that rivals that of Bloody Wednesday.

This clip culminates in Dolph taking advantage of the fact that one of his foes got himself drenched in paint thinner...

"WHAT?!"

Hey, Free Guns!

The hero mows down dozens of baddies, and every time his gun runs out, he shoots a baddie and the baddie's gun drops right into his hands. At one point, he flips onto his back and flings himself backward, serendipitously landing atop a mechanics dolly (you know, those roller things they use to get under cars). Merrily he rolls along, reloading as needed from his foes. Unload. Shoot a bad guy with your last bullet. Grab bad guy's falling gun. Repeat.

Hey...falling shotgun! I can use this in a couple of creative ways!
