^ True that. Bruce said he's going to do 6 total Die Hard movies so there's 2 more to go. I hope he knocks a UFO out of the sky with a rock.

For Riggs? yeah, It would be.... (Being too "old for this shit" back in LW3)

But as you can see by Die Hard 4.0, McCalne could easily do another few movies.


Cheers up though. LW 5 could happen still.

It could be set in an old folks home. Riggs is investigating why Roger keeps waking up with gown off and his ass bleeding every morning*, when he stumbles on his zimmerframe trying to arrest a Jewish nurse who he blames for the cause of all wars.. after breaking his hip he investigates from his bed and Murtaugh swatting off Rigg's various assailants with his crutches/throws bedpans at them.

On the subject of thin, whilst you're at it.....explain the Lethal Weapon "Thin joke".

















* Plot spoiler: It was Riggs all along. But neither Riggs or Murtaugh cant remember the midnight buttlove due to meds and dementia.

Mhm. Even though Riggs and Mac are roughly the same age through their movies.

Yet McClane, being genuinely better than Riggs, is able to kick ass well over a decade after Riggs got "too old for this shit".

"Too old for this shit."

Riggs said it: Screen feat, by your standards.

And lets face it, the rest of his screen time attested well to that assessment.

Riggs couldnt even get past a lazy jab and got his ass beat by Jet Li, Jack Travis and Jack Travis' Nan, Mrs.Travis...

McClane was putting crown victorias up Helicoptor pilots' asses and was modifying the sphincter size of military jets, trucks and freeways.

Don't compare The McClane Factor to something as stupid as toonforce actions. And Scooby Doo is hardly the reason the gang ever solves cases anyways. It's usually thanks to Fred and Vilma's traps and intelligence.

Eh...the plans usually always happen in the end no matter what. I'm referring to the old Scooby Doo by the way. I have no idea what happens in the new ones. Usually in the old ones I recall the "final" trap always working regardless if Shaggy and Scooby really did anything or not.

And yet he won the day, as usual.

Mhm. You mean when he took on four asians in Murtaughs house an kicked their asses? (A feat Mac could never hope to replicate.)

quote:

Yet he killed them. Hmm.

See, Mac HAS to resort to such measures. Why? Because what he fails to accomplish with his h2h or guns, Riggs does daily.


You see, Riggs is better than Mac. In every possible way, except maybe mass destruction, and luck. Riggs doesn't need luck. Superior skills>>>>luck, all day every day.

Nope. He and his husband Murtaugh won the day. BIG difference.

McClane routinely takes out groups of assassins. This is obvious to anyone who has seen the die hard movies.

Oh so NOW you accept that logic? Flip Flopper. Besides Riggs AND MURTAUGH killed them.

No, McClane was being both creative and timesaving (Two things Riggs is bad at) with is for the win.

(Your hypothesis has been shown to be weak and for the fail. McTriumph for the man from New Jersey.)

Mac wins the day with outside assistance. Every time yes

Just accept it. Mac resorts to such destructive because he HAS to. He lacks Riggs? He does what Mac does, only quicker and with greater efficiency.

Shall I name off a few instances that prove this?

Riggs has had WAY more efficient help than McClane man. You know it, as well as I do.
