rewatching The Nude Bomb recently, i noticed a few things that seem to have been borrowed and reworked for the new movie...
for instance:
what do you think? am i on to something? or am i just stretching things too far?
for instance:
- in TNB, Max fights KAOS villains while skydiving; in GS, 99 fights a KAOS agent during a skydive
- in TNB, Max talks to the Chief during the skydive; in GS, Max talks to 99 during the skydive
- in TNB, Max starts off with a parachute, but doesn't have one at the end of the fall; in GS, Max is supposed to take his parachute, but doesn't have one when he falls
- in TNB, there is a double agent in PITS working for KAOS who tries to kill Max and then makes a run for it; in GS, there is a double agent in CONTROL working for KAOS who tries to kill Max and then makes a run for it
- in TNB, an agent from PITS (Max) sits in on a UN meeting to discuss the possible threat from the villain; in GS, an agent from CONTROL (Chief) sits in on a Homeland Security meeting to discuss the possible threat from the villain
- in TNB, Max talks to the President (seen on screen, but not at the UN meeting) about the villain's threat; in GS, the Chief talks to the President (seen on screen, but not at the HS meeting) about the villain's threat
- in TNB, the villain kills other villains who were on his side; in GS, Siegfried kills one of his henchmen and one of his henchmen tries to kill Siegfried
- both films seem to forget the events of the original TV series
what do you think? am i on to something? or am i just stretching things too far?
