John Mclane vs the Joker

Scenario #1: The Joker and his henchmen take the Nakatomi building hostage, Mclane is the only one to avoid them undetected. Basically the same Scenario as Die Hard 1



Scenario #2: Mclane has been transfered to Gotham at the point in TDK where the Joker's attacks had piqued(where he has the henchmen and the hostages switched and awaits a confrontation on the top floor). In this scenario the GCPD send Mclane in by himself to deal with them.

Mclane loses both.

Joker is smarter than Mclane by a good amount.

So was Hans, and Hans' brother... and the guy in Live Free or Die Hard... and probably the guy who was the bad guy the second one...

Mclane has made a career (and millions of dollars at the box office) of killing people who are smarter then him...

My opinions of the scenarios,

1. Mclane makes his way through the tons of Henchmen, eventually finding himself one on one with the Joker himself.

... John shoots him and his dogs.

"Would you like to see a pencil tr- AGH MY JUGULAR!"

no expression

Same thing happens in the second scenario.

Resourcefulness and firepower win out?

John Mclane kills jets with trucks. I would say that his resourcefulness and ingenuity is superior to the Joker's. I wouldn't even say that the Joker is more intelligent than McClane. I'm not even convinced that the joker is all that intelligent. He is cunning, for sure, but he is really just smarter than the dumbasses around him. The reason he is such a formidable foe to batman is because he knows batman so well.

John McClane has the last laugh in this one. He does what it takes to get the job done. The only chance the joker has at winning in scenario one is if he goes fcuking nutty (like he always does) and just blows the building to shit at the beginning of the movie wink

Since John McLane has no idea what he's getting himself into, he will die by Joker's hands easily. McLane is probably expecting one of his common nutcases, and not the emperor of nutcases himself stick out tongue

Well, I would say Joker is "prep-god" in TDK. In the whole movie, almost everything that happened, he planned or had numerous other plans should something go wrong. He even almost had Batman at the end (which is total BS IMO, Batman almost losing to those stupid dogs).

The Joker has prep in both these scenarios, if you read the first post trough smile

And Joker is smarter than all of them too. no expression

Joker, despite his claims of the contrary, was a master planner, he planned on Harvey Dent going insane, guess what? He did.

No one, not even Batman, outplanned the Joker.

John shoots him and his dogs? I'm sorry sir, but that bullshit laughing stunt would not work on a Joker trying to kill someone. As a matter of fact, Joker probably just escapes and blows up the building with everyone in it. Mclane won't have the luxury of bad guys who are only sticking around there so they can rob the bank, Joker doesn't give two shits about money.

Second scenario goes somewhat the same.

Not to mention, John McLane, in all of his movies, in the end looks like a torn, worn, ancient rag. I mean .... it's a wonder the man can even walk after his movies (Yeah, I know, in the 3rd he didnt take all that much beating).

And in all of those movies, compared to the Joker, all his opponents were amateurs.

No, John aint getting out of this one alive.

John launches car filled with gasoline off median, car flies up and crashes into an airliner filled with terrorists, which subsequently crashes onto joker. Joker fails.

The only problem with your absolutely flawless plan would be that John wouldnt do that. It's a hostage situation, remember?

He does it at just the right angle so that it only picks off the joker.

And the Joker will place himself by the window and just signal the airplane to hit the spot with those blinking stuff.

Not required. The plane hits the joker because that's what John Mclane set out to do.

I haven't seen the Dark Knight yet, unfortunately.

No matter what though, McClane is the most bad ass man on the face of the earth.

Some how some way, yippie ki ya. McClane ftw.

Being badass will do you no good when your dead.
