How to ruin Die Hard 4....

Recommended Posts

Is nothing sacred? I want John McClane to smoke cigarettes, shoot funny looking Europeans, laugh about it, give me a yippe somewhere in the movie.

 

We don't need him giving his son advice on hitting on women, sinking free throws...or even devote a half hour of movie time to win his heart back after not being there.

So Willis went from Ben Affleck to Justin Timberlake.

Is that a step up or step down?

 

And wait, Jessica Simpson auditioned for a part? Please tell me she didn't get it cause a movie with Timberlake AND Simpson might cause the world to collapse in on itself.

 

Add in Clay Aiken and this might be the greatest train wreck of a movie in history.

It might sound goofy but McClane's family life was something I found underdeveloped in the Die Hard series, so I can certainly understand why they would do this.

 

Anyone notice a pattern in Bruce Willis' career? Does Die Hard then is in crap for a few years, then does a hard hitting cool film like Pulp Fiction/Sin City for street cred, then goes back to Die Hard.

 

Now he just needs to do a big dumb "save the world" actioner and a supernatural thriller.

Yeah, but look at the alternative:

Ben Affleck was rumoured to be in the running to play McClane's son - but the studio are (and not surprisingly) looking for someone with a bit more 'pull' at the moment.

 

Thank god!

Yeah Affleck is kinda old to be Bruce Willis' son in a movie. Unless Bruce knocked some chick up when he was like 14.

 

Anyone know what kind of heels will be in this new one? I think the Germans have been kinda played at this point, though Germans are always the best Evil Foreign Heels. I mean compare a German heel to say whatever Eurotrash heels are in movies now....no comparison.

I'm gonna have to go with Russians as the better heel country.

Yeah, so in Die Hard 1 when they shoot out the glass and his feet get cut up, he could have just brushed the glass out of the way with the side of his foot as he went along. I do it all the time if I break something. Or if he wanted to be extra careful, took his shirt off and moved it out of the way with his hands.

I thought the exact same thing when I saw the movie the first time
