Ajax's alternative downfall

Post by Lion »

If I could I would let Ajax go down while fighting the Furies.  How would you have Ajax go down?

I dunno.. when you see Ajax you sorta expect him to have some kinda heroic death
(usually they make the unethical guy get killed and do something that you wouldn't expect in movies)
Maybe like taking a bullet from Luther for another warrior or something to add some more.. drama in the movie i guss lol

i dont agree, better to get arrested remember they want to make him seem tough, if he gets wasted you dont seem to get that same impression of him being tough, if he goes down down pulling a becnh and hitting a cop before they get him makes him seem a tougher guy, and not to get killed by another gang, maybe the movie wanted to show that no gang can take him down but for his drity mind hence the cop woman

To go with the dirty mind thing stevo mentioned, I think the best choice for an Ajax downfall would have been the Lizzies, but that would mean scewing around with the Furies fight scene.

I dont really think Ajax can have a different downfall he did something that had a downfall all ready for him, he knew gangs and cops were on them but Ajax being Ajax didn't care and he went down the Ajax way by trying to make sure he wouldn't just  stand there and get dragged in the car.

I see what you are saying.  As opposed to the arrest, you thought of a more honorable sacrafice.  Sort of like a true "warriors", death.  Well, if that were to happen, i would assume that Swan and Snow, would have arrived late.  I guess that he would take as many as he could, but eventually it would be to overwhelming, and some furies would get shots in, eventually giving blows to the head, or throat.  Youknow the vital spots to kill someone.  And thus thats how he would have died.

I don't mind Ajax being arrested, tho' I don't like the reason for his arrest. It would be much better if he was arrested after a big fight with the police, not for the attempted rape. :?

His downfall would be for the same reason - his weakness for women. I would have had him take a bullet from the Lizzies - while pushing Rembrandt out of the way, so though he died due to his weakness, he would still save another Warrior in the process.
not bad but wopuldnt be the same because he would be taken out by a gang still, hes a tough character so you wouldnt want him taken out by some gang they want to give u impression that he cant be stopped by another gang but by his lust for women

This would be both. His lust for women would cause him to let his guard down to be seduced by the Lizzies. (Rembrandt was the only one who wasn't buying it.) When they started shooting, it would be too late. His lust would have led him to his doom, but he would be hero enough to save Rembrandt before he died.
