    Movie: Die Hard 4 : Live Free or Die Hard

    Ok... i was very pumped about this movie and didn't know it was out today but yes it is out.

    On my way home however, i heard it advertised and it is rated PG-13... WTF

    I am now not sure if i want to see it or not for fear that it has been toned down and completely re-packaged. Yippy-kayay motherf***er is not suitable for children 13 and under... surely the explosions and what not are there, but the death toned down... whats next, lethal weapon 5 : home for the holidays rated PG ?

    Lol!

    I was so looking forward to this movie too.

    Maybe Bruce Willis mellowed out in his old age. :/

    Now that you say it's PG-13, I don't know if I will bother. :/

    Trust me. I saw it tonight, it should be R. The MPAA has been a little more flakey than usual. Add a couple squibs, change a few shots/angles, this movie would have definitely been R. I'm convinced a bribe was made to get it to PG-13.

    It was great. It's not a witty as the first one (hard to top that one), not quite as gruesome as the 2nd (no icicle through the eye), but it's a pretty awesome movie. Lots of comedy mixed in with tons of explosions and gunfire. A typical Die Hard flick. Some scenes are a little over the top. But it was a lot of fun, and there's plenty of parts that make the audience cringe, and then immediately laugh.

    Plus it's got Mary Elizabeth Winstead as McClane's daughter.

    thanks Ryllharu.

    PG-13 means so much more money than if its R...

    I may goto see it this weekend, although they have this movie called Paprika showing at the angelika downtown and i might goto see that, the people w\ animefest sent an email alerting me to this one so die hard may wait for a week or so.

    Oh, you lucky so-and-so! I was biting my nails wanting this to come out in a city near me, but no such luck was had. In any case, go see Paprika as well. I hear it's pretty amazing.

    On topic: I wanna see this. I was expecting it to suck, but people have been telling me it's fun and also maybe kinda good??

    <@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs

    Man, I saw it last night and I thought it was great! I'm really not sure how they got away with pg-13, because it definitely needed to be R, because of all the asskicking and cursing... BUT DAMN! Every scene gets a litle more over the top than the previous one, and after awhile all you can do is laugh uncontrollably at the sheer awesomeness.

    And speaking of laughter, there were a great many funny bits throughout the movie, as well. My friends and I used the "I'm a mac, and I'm a (whatever seemed apprpriate) joke throughout and I expect someone will have a ytmnd out already.

    Anyway, go see it!

    Lol if John McClane and Jack Bauer had a death match to see who's more badasss I'm not 100% sure Jack would win. McClane is just plain crazy in this one.

    Ive actually discussed this at length...but i think jack would win it, since, you know he's tougher. it'd be close, cause mcclaine is willing to try some crazy shit, but in the end i think it'd be jack. I mean, you gotta root for the guy that bites people to death.

    !!! thats a very interesting comparison !!!! and honestly i've got to give it to jack.... the man gets tortured... stabbed .... then goes on for the next 23 hours of a day with no food, drink or toilet... gets mangled... shot.... and blown up and he's still rollin at the end of the day...

    anyhow, i just saw it !! and i was not at all disappointed. I think they did a good job with it.

    cast wise, was really good. had me going the whole time, especially when the kid started talking about this warlock guy and i was just anticipating who it would be !!! and BUAHHHAHAH it was !!!!!_______________! no spoilers here soooo good though, and they completed it for me at the end when the bad guy bit it and i got to hear what i was waiting for. Yipppy Kayayyyy motherfuckkkerrr!!!!! two thumbs up here.

    (i will note that it was 8:10 and we only saw die hard because the 8:15 transformers was sold out, but we were only going to see the 8:15 transformers because it was past 8 and i didn't want to miss any of the movie)

    I saw this movie a week or so ago and liked it a lot. It's the kind of movie I would go see with my dad. An alright plot with tons of really fun action and general badassery. I really liked the Credence Clearwater Revival scenes =p
