Rooting for the bad guy

Okay, this is probably a bit redundant, this being a horror forum, but are there any things (movies, games, tv shows) where you want the bad guys to get away with whatever they are doing? Not just wantiong to see Jason hack someone up, but when they have some brilkliant scheme that you would just lobve to see it pan out.

My example. I am watchin Die Hard right now, and i actually kind of wanted the bad guys to get away. Their plan was perfect. had Bruce not fucked things up for them, they would have gotten away. they all woudl have been in a non-extridition country earning 20% on 47 MILLION dollars.... if that is just annual, that would be $9,400,000 a year for sitting on your ass. Gotta sympathize with wanting that kind of life.

Here is how it breaks down:
that is $783,333 a month

$180,769 a week

$25,753 a day



figures to a salary of about $3,561 an HOUR


Anyway.. i also always felt for Neil McCauly in Heat (Robert Dinero). Sure, he was a bad ass, but he wanted to retire to a nice, calm life in New Zealand...
