History VillainsOutShopping / Film

* In ''[[Film/TheFastAndTheFurious Fast and Furious]]'' (the fourth film in the series), the BigBad Braga and his [[TheDragon right hand man Phoenix]] are visiting a church [[note]]To donate/bribe his way into heaven[[/note]] and betting at a cock fight respectively, when the heroes come for them, just before the climax.

* In the third film in the ''Film/Taken'' series, Liam Nelson's character Brain Mills, tracks down four assassins that tried to run him off the road and [[NotQuietDead believe they succeeded at killing.]] But instead of going back to any kind of safe-house, he finds them casually shopping for booze at a gas station/liquor store with one of them even [[AffablyEvil flirting with the girl at the cash register and showing her a trick he knows]].

* One scene in ''Film/SuperMarioBros'' features Koopa ordering pizza. The guy taking his order even treats him like any other customer, even though the guy can see that he's the [[BigBad despotic dictator]] ruling his city with an iron fist. [[BigLippedAlligatorMoment The scene serves absolutely no purpose]].

* A trailer for the 2017 ContinuityReboot of ''Film/MightyMorphinPowerRangers2017'' shows Rita having a donut at a Krispy Kreme [[StrollingThroughTheChaos as her forces wreck the city around her.]]

* ''GangsOfNewYork'' has a TruceZone example in the form of Satan's Circus, the rowdy tavern on the Five Points where all of the locals - including the gang members, who have agreed not to attack each other there - can go to take part in immoral and probably illegal but not exactly villainous activities, like drinking themselves stupid or gambling on dogfights. Amsterdam Vallon even walks in at the same time a group of [[StreetPerformer Street Performers]] decide to come inside, playing fiddles and singing folk tunes to everyone's delight. The Nativists play cards at a table off in the corner - although Bill ''does'' stab one of his men in the hand. And Amsterdam and another one of Bill's men wind up having a trivial argument and agree to settle the matter with a vicious fight.

* In a rarity for the Film/JamesBond films, {{Film/Goldfinger}} takes a break in the Swiss Alps to buy from fruit from a roadside vendor.

** While filming in London, a group of [[WeAreNotTheWehrmacht Bundeswehr]] panzer officers were surprised to see the World War II-era costumed soldiers. They inspected the extras, and pronounced their uniforms "absolutely correct."

* Played with in Creator/TimBurton's ''Film/{{Batman}}''. The Joker and his gang visit an art museum. No, they're not there to rob the place; nor do they kill anybody (though they do temporarily put them to sleep with knockout gas). All they want to do is admire the paintings and sculptures...that they are [[MadArtist "improving" by crudely splashing them with paint, slashing them, breaking them, etc]]. But then, of course, the Joker's ''true'' reason for going to the museum is revealed: [[spoiler: he had lured Vicki Vale there by pretending to be Bruce Wayne inviting her to dinner at the museum café, with the intention of kidnapping her or torturing her, or both; Batman's rescue attempt is how he and Vicki end up meeting.]]

** ''Film/KillBill'' has a couple of points where members of the Deadly Viper Assassination Squad are shown after they give up their life of assassination: getting married, working as a bouncer at a local nightclub, and [[spoiler: raising a daughter]]. This is between assassination attempts and bone crunching ninja mayhem.

The Nativists play cards at a table off in the corner - although Bill ''does'' stab one of his men in the hand for no good reason. And Amsterdam and another one of Bill's men wind up having a trivial argument and agree to settle the matter with a vicious fight.

** In ''Film/FromDuskTillDawn'', the bar scene can be seen as that with the Gecko Brothers and their hostages as they are casually enjoying shots. Of course this is long before the bar staff go on a vampiric rampage.

* Practically the entire plot of ''Film/LordOfWar''. Not a scene goes buy that doesn't consist of criminals, drug lords, terrorists, and warlords buying guns (not just guns, but tanks, helicopters, artillery, etc) from Yuri. One of his customers even comes to visit him in New York when he's gone legitimate, hoping to "do some shopping."

* Literally in ''Film/LordOfWar''. Just about the entire film consists of criminals, drug lords, terrorists, and warlords buying guns (not just guns, but tanks, helicopters, artillery, etc) from Yuri. One of his customers even comes to visit him in New York when he's gone legitimate, hoping to "do some shopping."

* Drake/Dracula in ''BladeTrinity'' visits a goth store soon after he is reawakened from his slumber. He is so disgusted by the sight of what the goths think reflects the nature of vampires that he ends up killing the two clerks managing the store.

** Also done in ''TheGodfather 2'' where a younger adult Vito and his family visit Corleone for a vacation, [[spoiler: before he gets revenge against the Don who murdered his father, brothers, and mother when he was a child.]]
