BurningBeard Posted October 2, 2019 Posted October 2, 2019 First one to say Die Hard is their favourite Christmas movie gets a slap

BurningBeard Posted October 2, 2019 Posted October 2, 2019 In my house, we go on this bizarre Christmas Carol merry-go-round where we always end up watching: Muppets Christmas Carol Scrooged (the best Christmas film) the CGI Jim Carrey version of A Christmas Carol I like em all but by the end I've had enough of that fable for another year.
BurningBeard Posted October 2, 2019 Posted October 2, 2019 I can't help but like With A Vengeance the most. That's also the last one they made IIRC 1 1 3
Contentious C Posted October 2, 2019 Posted October 2, 2019 (edited) Kiss Kiss Bang Bang is my favorite Christmas movie. Look up "Christmas movie" in the dictionary, and you know what you'll find. Edited October 2, 2019 by Contentious C

J.T. Posted October 3, 2019 Posted October 3, 2019 (edited) Die Hard is my favorite Christmas movie. Here is the late Charlie Murphy summarizing my feelings about men slapping men. Apply the wisdom that comes with being forewarned. Edited October 3, 2019 by J.T. 3
Execproducer Posted October 4, 2019 Posted October 4, 2019 Keep up the Christmas love because the Chaos is going to come up shortly after the Havoc. 1
AxB Posted October 4, 2019 Posted October 4, 2019 Just merge them and do a Christmas Horror theme. Gremlins and that.

The Natural Posted October 5, 2019 Posted October 5, 2019 Die Hard (1988) is the best Die Hard. Die Hard With A Vengeance (1995) is the best sequel. I choose to ignore the rest. 1

I choose to ignore the rest. I guess I'm the only one that liked Live Free Or Die Hard. Also, maybe controversial, but I think the best one is With A Vengeance, but it might be because I've seen it more than all of the others combined.

I think it's a valid choice to lie With A Vengeance the most. I don't personally, but I totally can see it. DHWaV is a really strong buddy cop movie, with a really good blend of action and humor. It's just, Die Hard has the best action movie villain ever, and a bit tighter of a script. I have a hard time imagining anybody not having those two as the two best though. As for LFoDH... I haven't watched it in years, but I mostly just remember wishing there was more Mary Elizabeth Winstead and finding Justin Long super fucking annoying. Edited October 9, 2019 by Brian Fowler 1
Casey Posted October 9, 2019 Posted October 9, 2019 (edited) Yeah, if your top two isn't some form of the original and With A Vengeance, then I just don't even know. I think I can count the amount of times I've seen Die Hard 2 on one hand, and A Good Day to Die Hard only once. The other three I've seen multiple times and I love them. Justin Long is pretty annoying in Live Free or Die Hard, but he's supposed to be. Timothy Olyphant was a decent-to-good villain - not as remarkable as Alan Rickman in the original, but I think I like Olyphant's performance more than I did William Sadler from Die Hard 2, but it's probably tied with Jeremy Irons from the third. Sadler and Sebastian Koch from the last movie are at the bottom, that's for sure. Mary Elizabeth Winstead didn't get a lot of screen time in A Good Day to Die Hard, either. But nobody really likes that movie, so I think people forget she was actually in it. Edited October 9, 2019 by Casey
Brian Fowler Posted October 9, 2019 Posted October 9, 2019 (edited) Just a cameo at the beginning, right? I've only watched that one once, and who knows if I'll ever watch it again. And, I get that he's supposed to annoy John McLane. But he also annoyed the piss out of me in a way that actively detracted from the movie. To the point that's my main takeaway, that I wanted Olyphantastic to succeed in killing him all fucking ready. Edited October 9, 2019 by Brian Fowler
Casey Posted October 9, 2019 Posted October 9, 2019 She appears briefly at the end of the movie, too. I'm pretty sure both times you see her in that movie, it's at or around an airport, though. I don't know why they haven't gone with a Lucy McClane spin-off starring Mary, though. 1

I was disappointed when they followed up with the son instead of doing this. 1
