Hi, your first taks is to identify the movie and your second one is to take a similar plot from anotehr movie and turn it into a Shadowrun narration.

If things go well, I can even think of a prize or two (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

***

The opening is that Seattle is in a state of civil war. A group of Shadowrunners have stolen plans for a cold fusion bomb being developed by Shiawase.

One of the Shadowrunners Lana Human has possession of the plans, but is ambushed by Shiawase's security troops. Before she is captured Lana uploads the plans in an AI controlled mini drone "2msrt4u" with a data file and offer for the job. The mini drone escapes into the barrens with the help of an Otomo drone "Kne-Xion". The two drones are quickly captured by gangers who sell the pair to a ripper doc called Oliver Stalker and his nephew Jeremiah "Jimmy" Stalker. While Jimmy is cleaning the mini drone he accidentally triggers part of data file on which she requests help from a former Army General Mike Nailsmith. The only "Nailsmith" knows is an old hermit named Mad-Eye Nailsmith who lives deep in the barrens. Oliver though dismisses any connection. Saying its a fools errand.

During dinner, 2smrt4u escapes to seek out Nailsmith. Jimmy and Kne-Xion go out after him and are met by Nailsmith, who reveals himself to be the General and takes Jimmy and the drones back to his squatter place in the Barrens. He tells Jimmy of his days as a Physical Adept and General. He also tells Jimmy about his association with Jimmy's father, also a comrade of his, who he says was betrayed and murdered by Shiawase's head of security Paul Saito, Nailsmith's former underling who turned to the corporate track. Nailsmith then views Lana's message, in which she begs him to take 2smrt4u and the cold fusion bomb plans to the rest of her Shadowrun team. Nailsmith asks Jimmy to accompany him to out of the barrens and to learn the ways of a physical adept. After initially refusing, Jimmy discovers that his home has been destroyed and his aunt and uncle killed by Shiawase in search of the drones. Jimmy agrees to go with Nailsmith, and the two hire smuggler Jack Morgan and his troll co-pilot Grynder to transport them on their ship, into Seattle proper.
