Yup. Spanked him, burped him, smacked him on the bing bong.

If they are say, twenty or thirty feet apart, yeah, Riggs long distance shooting will come into play. Even more so at close range.
Dude, look at the fight at the end of LW2. McLane wouldnt have been able to pull that off and survive.

Hmmm, since the helicopter in DH1 was blown up from the roof being rigged from Hans. During that time McClane was trying to hide from the helicopter and jumped off the building.

McClane takes this, Riggs usually needs the help of his negro side-kick to win, he couldn't even take out Jet Li by himself, as where Mcclane would have just shot his ass and belched out a cheesy one-liner.
Only James Bond, Austin Powers and 80s era Arnold Schwarzenegger could dream of matching McClane's capacity cheesy line delivery.
But McClane has a prestigious line in verbal abuse to accompany it.
If I could beat an opponent in battle by either fighting and then simply knocking them out like every other action movie,
or by cramming as much Land Rover as a I could into their anus as they fall down an Elevator shaft as a finishing move..?
The car option would be the more entertaining/tempting.
Especially after they have kicked me in the face but failed to kill me......
That finishing move should be incorporated into the next Mortal Kombat game.
Why are these fools arguing that McClane getting kicked about a bit is somehow a negative? When as you explained, his opponent eventually had to pay the McPiper, as they all do.
Could Riggs use a Crown Victoria to take out an airborne helicopter filled with armed shooting men? Could Riggs have survived the F-35 attack? Could Riggs have defeated that French mercenary parkour guy without his side-kick? Answer to all is: NO
Bond films need bigger more exciting plots, larger than life villains, and some humour.
I thought Casino Royale was somewhat acceptable as a reboot and Bond starting out as a "rookie" and he hasn't developed the charismatic Bond style yet. But in QoS he was just as rugged, and lacked charm that all the previous Bonds had.
^ I'm thinking the complete opposite. In fact, overall I enjoy older films compared to new ones (lets same after 2000).
Regarding Bond films, I really liked the sharks, the lasers, Jaws, electric eels, Dr evil, and definitely the I-cud-kill-u-now-but-i'll-delay-and-kill-u-with-some-bizarre-method-while-i-reveal-my-diabolical-plans-and-you-can-somehow-escape thing.
Edit: Rofl, just noticed how off-topic we've gone.

Absolutely.
He definitely looks like a emotionallly desolate killing machine when he needs to also.. if he smiled occasionally and had a Scot accent, he'd be Connery.
I like the updated no-messing violence too.
Sheer efficiency and brutality.
McClane would approve.
EDIT: Indeed, Placidity. We are approximately 25 miles south by south west of the thread but its ok this road'll lead back onto it.
As Bond could kill Riggs too...
