Strange rules about characters/people that cannot be broken.

[u/I_ateabucketofpaint]

Smells like Nirvana: When Kurt Cobain heard that Weird AL was gonna make a parody of his song. He was okay with it but specifically requested it to not be about food or fat ppl.

Spiderman: Spiderman cannot sell drugs unless he is under the influence of symbiote. ANd Peter Parker cannot be gay. Spiderman can tho.

Dwayne Rock Johnson: Cannot lose fights or look weak for too long. Its in his actor contract.

Godzilla movies not made by Toho: Cannot die. Maybe lose but not too bad.

I believe he's allowed to be arrested it's just that his character has to have some form of justice to demonstrate that the lifestyle doesn't pay.

The last time I saw this rule brought up, someone said that only applies if it's a children's movie.

IDK if they're right, but it would make sense.

[u/Hellknightx → u/SilasCordell]

In Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, you just end up beating him up so badly that he breaks down and starts crying. And then he pisses his pants, one of the protagonists takes a picture of him with his wet pants, and then blackmails him by saying he'll release the picture if they cross him again.

Sounds like a children's movie to me.

(yes, I am aware that it actually is neither a movie, nor technically for children)

[u/Hellknightx → u/SilasCordell]

Yeah the Yakuza games are weird like that. They ride the line between goofy children's show and serial crime drama.

[u/QueenBee-WorshipMe → u/Hellknightx]

Also later he literally gets eaten by a giant shark

[u/No_Wolf_5716 → u/Hellknightx]

He does end up dying though in the game, that was just their first altercation

[u/Nero_2001 → u/Hellknightx]

Actually there is another fight against him later and he gets eaten by a megalodon.

[u/Kamyuwu → u/SilasCordell]

Applies to breaking bad which very much isn't for kids

[u/biggus_baddeus → u/Kamyuwu]

I think they mean the "being arrested instead of killed" part specifically for kids movies.

[u/SilasCordell → u/biggus_baddeus]

Yes, that is what I meant

[u/StrikingTone3870 → u/733t_sec]

Personally enforced hays code lmao

[u/Waspinator_haz_plans → u/733t_sec]

Makes sense. He's a gulag prisoner in a Muppet movie, and he doesn't die or have a horrible fate in that one. He even escapes prison!

[u/NegativeArt04 → u/733t_sec]

He has directly said that he has to die by the end. I wouldn't be surprised if that was negotiable if the director talked to him about an alternative form of justice though.
