If you watch movies long enough, you may come to a realization: Hollywood has really only filmed one chase scene, and they've simply been reusing it over and over again for years.

Okay, maybe that's not entirely true, but you know what we're getting at. Like many well-established components of fiction, the chase scene is one that is often comprised of familiar elements which serve their function to add [[RuleOfCool coolness]], [[RuleOfFunny funniness]], or other desired effects.

[[CoolCar Cool Cars]] will be featured often. Also expect TelevisionGeography to take the ScenicRoute, since the scene is usually edited together to be [[RuleOfCool dramatically compelling]], [[MST3KMantra not physically possible.]]
