The Coen Brothers' Movie AMV

[SamuraiJake]

Hi there, I'm looking for suggestions on a new AMV idea I have. The Coen Brothers (No Country for Old Men) are coming out with a new comedy called "Burn After Reading" ...but I'm having a bit of a problem finding the best anime selection for it. There are a few criteria which much fit with the trailer:

Lockers, locker room
A woman who is self conscious about her body
Telephone conversation
A punch in the nose
A main character who is a spy, but a perverted ladies'-man too
Mention of computers ("PC or Mac?")
CIA spies and office supervisors
No guns, but bladed weapons should be shown (knife, axe, etc.)
and of course, a dead body.

I initially thought of a few ideas:

Samurai Champloo
Azumanga Diaoh
Fullmetal Alchemist

Any other suggestions?

Neon Genesis Evangelion

[Fall_Child42]

Neon Genesis Evangelion

This is a really good and yet very sad suggestion.

[JaddziaDax]

it's the first thing that came to mind O.o

[MishaGirl]

Darker than black?

[Ijexis]

Neon Genesis Evangelion

It's actually funny how NGE meets EVERY SINGLE ONE of those criteria...

I think Gunsmith Cats has just about all of those criteria in it. The only one I'm not sure about is the self conscious woman.

Evangelion would probably work, but I'm curious about Gunsmith Cats. I've heard of it, haven't seen it yet. Are there any specific examples to draw from?

Oops, sorry I took so much time to get back to you on this.

No guns, but bladed weapons should be shown (knife, axe, etc.)

There's a female, Russian hitman that almost always uses bladed weapons.

Lockers, locker room

I remember there are gun lockers and such; but I can't recall specifically if there're any normal lockers.

A woman who is self conscious about her body

Well, you might be able to use the scenes where Rally and May are getting dressed for a ceremony.

Telephone conversation

There's several with close-ups on the faces while they're talking; including the female hitman.

A punch in the nose
and of course, a dead body.

I'm sure someone gets decked, but I don't recall any specifics. There's plenty of corpses too.

A main character who is a spy, but a perverted ladies'-man too
CIA spies and office supervisors

There's a blackmailing ATF agent who's always spying on Rally and May. If I remember correctly he ogles them in their underwear in the first episode. Also, there's a couple scenes with his supervisor; who happens

Spoiler :

to be a spy/ on the take

.

Mention of computers ("PC or Mac?")

Rally and co. hack into a database in the 2nd episode.


Anyhow, I hope this helps you out.
