The 'Die Hard' Thread
 

This thread is dedicated to all those who love John McClane.

If you have not seen any of the 'Die Hard' films, here's a thumbnail history. Well, up to part 4 anyway!:

Die Hard - Music Video - NEW 4th Verse! - YouTube

"Remember when we first met John McClane?
Argyle picked him up from the plane,
And took him down to Nakatomi Tower...
To meet with Holly.

He came to get her back and to be her man,
But Hans and his buddies ****ed up the plan,
And that's about when everything went sour
At the Christmas party.

And the terrorists were over-zealous,
But it was sweet when they killed Ellis!
And, with a little help from Allen,
John McClane kicked ass!

We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die as hard as we can!

No one dies harder than John McClane,
Even when his wife's stuck on a plane
About to crash into the Potomac River...
On the eve of Christmas.

And airport security kicked him out,
But John McClane is just too damn proud,
And nothing could have made him not deliver...
'Cause that's his business!

And with a lot of fights and gunplay
He blew that plane up on the runway.
And, with a little help from Allen,
Holly's plane could land!

We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die as hard as we can!

Yippee-ki-yay, mother****er!

No one dies harder than John McClane,
Saving all the passengers on the train.
But Simon wasn't clear with his intentions:
It was just a distraction!

And there was no way McClane could know
That Hans Gruber was Simon's bro.
And that's what made it "Die Hard: With A Vengeance"
With Samuel Jackson!

And the good cop wouldn't miss this,
Even though it wasn't Christmas.
He didn't get any help from Allen...
But only in part three!

We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die as hard as we can!

Finally we're back with John McClane
Now we got a choice, and the choice is plain:
We can live free or we can die hard,
As hard as we can.

From taking on a terrorist he's never met,
To taking on an F-35 jet,
With the greatest car explosions by far...
This sure looks sweet, man!

And we know what the basic gist is:
There ain't no Allen, and it's not Christmas.
We don't know but we're pretty sure that
John McClane kicks ass!

We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die as hard as we can!

Yippee-ki-yay, mother****er!"

Further to my post on the bulletin board. Die Hard in order.

1- Die Hard
2- Die Hard 2


3- Die Hard 4.0
4- Die Hard with a Vengeance.

The first two are by far the best, the first being an all time classic film, but i do like the other two very much.

That song is brilliant, ha ha

My order is the same as Dem's too, as much as I enjoy 3, I prefer 4 due to the amount of WTF moments, i.e John destroying a chopper with a car, riding on the wing of a fighterjet etc etc, plus his daughter is damn fine too!

I found the terrorist in DH4 a little underwelming, but the film was still great fun

My DH-O-Meter...

Die Hard
Die Hard 2

Die Hard 3.0
Die Hard with a vengeance








A Good Day to Die Hard- Which is truly awful.

Same film? ;)

Die Hard = Die Hard With A Vengeance
Die Hard 4.0 (which is think is very underrated. Timothy Olyphant is superb)
Die Hard 2

Haven't seen the new one

Bollocks! You know what I meant!:tongue1:

For me it would have to be...

Die Hard
Die Hard With A Vengeance
Die Harder
Die Hard 4.0
Olympus Has Fallen*
A Good Day To Die Hard




*Basically Die Hard.

Is Olympus Has Fallen any good Pedro?

Its one i fancy buying as is the forthcoming White House Down.
