John Mctiernan was back at the helm. PLus, who doesnt love bruce, sam and jeremy?


I loved how they played the whole race thing in the movie.they did a good job of making it funny, but also messing with preconcieved notions of how the jokes were going to go.

I always loved the part where Samuel l jackson assumed bruce willis was going to call him a stupid n-word, but he was really going to say asshole:D

i wasnt really a fan of any die hards ... i hadnt learned to tolerate bruce willis at that point.

actually i didnt like him until 6th Sense and Unbreakable ...
then i began to respect him .. (he has developed into something other than his initial Mickey Rourke wannabe persona with his maturity.)

thats one of the things i thought was funny in Sin City .. willis and rourke in the same movie at last (even though they didnt share any scenes)

I admit to liking all three of the Diehard films, I love Bruce Willis. Always found him really likeable. But the third is actually my favorite, even though the first had the best villian I think (I find myself wanting to like any movie Alan Rickman is in for some reason....I hate that Kevin Costner ruined Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves for me :mad: I mean Alan Rickman and Morgan Freeman in the same movie, I should have loved it ).

And I just wander all over topic don't I?:o

Rickman, the gentleman bandit .. yeah he's great - and the only decent thing about that Robin Hood travesty ..

Ah you didn't like it either. I have a friend (the same friend that happens to like Rawhead Rex *snicker*) who swears that the only reason I can't appreciate that movie is because of my seething, unreasonable hatred of Costner and that if I just gave him a chance....sure....I liked Bull Durham....lol....

And yes I have seen January Man. I have really thought about that movie in awhile, barely remember anything about it. I remember that I thought it was decent. And that it also had Kevin Kline in it. That's about it.

i was one of the 20 people who actually saw January Man at the theatre .. and i liked it .. i now have the DVD as well ..
Kevin Kline is good in it - as well as mary elizabeth mastrantonio (hottie) and Rickman plays this flakey artist friend ..

its not earth shaking .. but its pleasant .. i'd say it's worth a viewing ..)
