We see only one solid move from Zan, and that was the block against Quinn, who is definitely no master H2H combatant either.

That and the others have already pointed out that 5 solid hits and a headbutt from Zan failed to do anything more significant than give Quinn a fat lip and a cut. Compared to the people McClane has fought and scored victories against, or even marginally lose to, Quinn is a nobody, and Zan hasn't got any further showings to compare to.

It does nake it unfairly stacked, but Zan is no Jackie Chan, he's not going to out skill McClane, Zan's style is as much brawling as McClane's is, and McClane has fought more dangerous foes than Quinn.

I'm going to just agree to disagree with you on here. There's no way we are going to convince each other, so why bother?

What is there to disagree on, for all Zan's supposed "skill and technique" he failed to seriously injure, KO or kill anyone in HTH.

Hes been objectively convinced by obvious screenfeats, reason and logic, Lestov.

ermm I guess that's up to you dude. But that is what debating is, resolving the issue.

Look at it this way, he's admitting that he's so biased that no amount of screen feats and logic will get him to change his biased opinion.

If I where to look at it this way, then I would ask Lestov only these 2 questions...

#1: Lestov, are you only arguing against McClane because it's McClane? Or is it because Rob, Sadie, Focus and now SMaster are arguing against Zan?

#2: Would you make the same arguments if McClane was not involved?

Pitt's character
Spoiler:

Spoiler:
never truly explained what really causes people to turn into zombies , my guess is that is a virus

if you like The Walking Dead sans the violence this film is for you

doubtful this will make a ton of money.. decent but suspenseful film 6.7/10

he will be missed

Man.

What the **** has been going on in this thread lol

Brings back memories, of when I was also a little girl in France.

Things seemed to have calmed down around here

Hmm.....

You know what, I'm going to change my mind again. I think McClane will win. Dude was taking rifle butts to the face which would have KOed/killed the average man with one hit. If those didn't harm him, I don't see Van Zan's punches doing anything. And as you stated, he had no other H2H techniques. Maybe if he snapped someone's neck I could make an argument there, but he didn't. And Van Zan is good, but IDK if he'll have the speed advantage of Lihn, and Van Zan wasn't displaying the karate kicks Stuart used to put McClane down. Even then, McClane got a good leg sweep in. If McClane leg sweeps, then lands a couple of his DH5 punches to Van Zan, IDK if Van Zan can withstand. At least Jack Bauer is extremely durable and can snap necks like twigs, so I can make an argument for him. But Van Zan lacks both of those traits, so Ill say he only takes 3/10.

Woodchipper thread is bullshit though 😐

Can he out-Samuel L. Samuel L.?

How long until someone makes the inevitable MoS vs McClane thread?

It's take 7 seasons for Bauer to kill McClane?
