Quote from: DEViANCEive never seen No1 tbh, but I loved No2 and 3 so will defo be seeing this

I hate it when people get all arsey when someone says they havent seen a film. "Oooh you have to see it" and all that b*ll*x!


However in this case - ITS TRUE! I cant believe you didnt watch the first - its one of the greatest action films ever (in fact it probably IS the greatest action film ever!).


Oh and as for baddies - yes Alan Rickmans Hans is my favourite movie baddie ever. I even sampled him saying What was it you said to me before... yippie kai yay, motherf*cker" at the beginning of a song I put out once (shush copyright shush!). But then he was a great baddie in Robin Hood too - mans a legend!
Career, Wife, Mortgage... my sig was better when it listed guitars and PC's and stuff!

OK I have seen em all. Watched the two disk Ultimate Action Edition which is a bit harder than the cinematic one. Cert 15.

Everything is there for a Die Hard film still. OK Willis is a bit older, and there wasnt as much swearing as in previous ones, but that doesnt make much difference TBVFH. Its still a well packed action film along the lines of someone just happening to be in the wrong place at the right time and having to kick the baddies collective butts. Better than 3, possibly than 2. Although Willis thought it equalled the first I am not too sure.

Graphics certainly were massively improved, the one niggle was the exploding gas pipeline which wasnt believable at all.

I was just about to start a thread about Die Hard 4.0, just finished watching it.

I know sh*ts bad right now with all that starving bullsh*t and the dust storms and we are running out of french fries and burrito coverings.

There are plenty of niggles in all four Die Hard films, but to be honest Id sooner see a massive explosion no matter how implausible it is than something that might actually happen in real life. Its camp comic book style action complete with quips, larger than life characters and witty one liners at its finest.

The thing with that is everything else, including hitting the helicopter with a car, is plausible, even the fire hydrant stunt. Same with the other films although they had nothing on the scale of this. It could have been quite possible to drive a truck loaded with explosives in to destroy the building, although not quite as visually impressive.

State of the art jet fighters need to get within 10 feet of their target before engaging.

Yep, I was going to say if there was ever a gripe to be had about Die Hard 4.0 it would be the F-35B sequence which for all of its faults was still fecking awesome to watch.

Quote from: neXusahaaa, Found out now why they are called differently now in the us, Apparently the idea of the title has always been 4.0 first which indicates digital and computers as that is the underline theme of the movie but apparently The American Folk as always did not get the title and so the different title for the US folk as apparently most of them do not even realise the plot line and what is going and only know of what mainly happens.

Oh dear, poor chaps over there (just seen it on tv)
