I would be Marcellus Wallace's gopher. Do odd jobs for him. None of the hardcore hitman or murder stuff, mind you, just mundane tasks like running to the Teriyaki Donut now and again, or maybe a bouncer at his strip club.

Boy, I tell ya, that Bordertown looks pretty tempting, what with its booming pig dung industry and Thunderdome entertainment arena. Real sweet town.

I think the worst would be 'Battle Royale 2' looking like Starlight Express rejects was just painful to the eyes.

Even the movie was flawed the world of 'The Legend of Zu' looked spectacular.
