#FridayMovieNight#DiehardWithAVengeance #popcornX - pre-9/11, this opening scene was impactful ... Post-9/11? Eerily as heck. The "smoke in the street" notion would appear in recent mass hysteria films repackaged in superhero tales, like "The Avengers" and "Man Of Steel", and soon, where "Bruce Wayne" run into, in #BatmanvSupernan #DawnofJustice (flashback scene to MoS too tho :p).

#FridayMovieNight#DiehardWithAVengeance #popcornX #BruceWillis ... One thing which I totally enjoyed about the #DieHard filmd, was the flawed #JohnMcClane - flawed character, shit family life, and generally in perpetual "FML" mode hahahaha ... But there is ONE thing is is eventually good at; his job. (I can relate... :p)

Before he was Bruce Wayne's butler - oops, I meant Wayne Senior's "Security Chief", he was a terrorist/thief ... #FridayMovieNight#DiehardWithAVengeance #GruberaBroa #popcornX #JeremyIrons

#FridayMovieNight#DiehardWithAVengeance #popcornX - What? No "terrorist along to his death from a skyscraper", or an "exploding airline jet", and peeps don't remember #DieHard 3? I liked the plot change at the end, although it took the oomph out of the climax with #JohnMcClane and "Zeus", and attempted another orgasm before the credits rolled ... Which perhaps by then, it's like dude's already rolled over exhausted and gone back to sleep... :p
