I just finished watching the movie Miami Vice and although I think it was a mediocre movie, I did see a lot of potential for Shadowrunning ideas and scenarios. The negotiation scene in the derillect cafe is something that I could very well see and have seen being played out in an SR game, along with the drug running, infiltration, gun fights, and the twists and turns in the plot that could give you whiplash. You prompted a mirade of ideas for campaigns and missions in my head while watching it. But I was also trying to think of other movies that have the same aspects of shadow possibility in them and if anyone else has seen a movie that has a lot of potentiality in it?
