Some people say that Batman is way overrated. Maybe. However, John has, oh, almost NONE of the training that Batman has save for his police training and experiences.I say that McClane is way too overrated.
But I'm not going to be a fanatic about it.

Batman wouldn't let that happen, says I. He's a trained ninja, FFS. Once John and Batman see each other, they are both gonna attack and/or duck for cover.

I don't need to. The same thing can be said for McClane. It's not fanboyism, it's common damn sense. Nobody is just going to stand there and become a target.

Batman wins. For one he will know that going into the building with Terrorists there will be Automatic weaponry. So he isnt going to walk out into open space so carlessly and as soon as Batman sees McClane, or rather some guy with an Automatic weapon, hes going to assume he is a terrorist and then pacify him. Either with his little throwing "Bats" ,hitting in the arm so McClane drops the gun, and yes Batman is THAT accurate hes a freakin ninja for cryin out loud, or by using smoke pellets to obscure Johns sight. John hasnt had training with smoke and Batman has so it would be no great feat for Batman to find and take John out. Batman has the experience dealing with guys with guns. And if you followed the DH story even John Mcclane said he was lucky to have survived.
McClane doesn't have a chance here. It's the motherfooking Batman, man. Yeah, McClane has luck and ingenuity but Batman IS luck and ingenuity. I think McClane is a near crack shot but Batman focuses his tactics around defending against guns. Guns have never been a problem for Batman before so there is no reason to believe they will be now. McClane is still the coolest though 😉
