What do think Bauer does? He only finds out about the terrorist plots maybe 2 hours before they happen, and has no info whatsoever on the terrorist plot. He doesn't just have to dispatch bad guys. He has to find out what they know as well, so his job is a shitload harder. Also, unlike DH villains, 24 villains are very motivated towards their goals

Bauer ripped out a man's throat with his teeth. He's very spontaneous

The next most effective counterterrorist agent next to McClane, of course. Who is so good that he kills all those badguys and he isn't even a member of an organisation like that.
But those bad guys are below 24 bad guys. And it also takes a longer time period. Die Hard and it's subsequent sequels do not take place within a real-time format. They usually occur within a 6 hours-long or more timeframe. Jack takes out bad guys of the same quantity and difficulty in (literally) 15 minutes
McClane pulling the fuel port cover off of the wing made it very convenient for McClane to do that... Yes.

Not meaning to rude, but... so what? All pretty base level stuff. not McClane level stuff. This is why the 40 year old virgin is not admitted to such an illustrious proceeding. McClane extrapolates the necessary info as he goes...point?

So is McClane. If you believe otherwise, you are either yet to watch the Die Hard movies, or your mental.
Personally, I think its a need to watch the movies, rather than the latter. Your future posts'll be the judge, I guess.
Whos the 21st president..?

Says you. So what if they aren't in a real time format. Especially a "TV real time format". Not McClainian enough of a time frame, Im afraid. You you see, Die Hard and all subsequent sequels are movies (as in the M of "MVF"😉 and there fore are compressed a little. 24 is ridiculous as the scenes of Jack Bauer taking a piss or shit or not featured....so don't be silly.
McClane pulling the fuel port cover off of the wing made it very convenient for McClane to do that... Yes.
Yes. As he was the one doing the taking off of the cover, it, like the subsequent destruction of the bad guy passengers, was all down to him. 🙂
This makes little sense. Especially in context of the post you respond to. No offense meant. McClane would lost exactly NO love ones.

Indeed. It is unfortunate for McClane that when Marwan captures him (even though the fact that you have presented me with NO evidence that he is a good interrogator, and especially one on the level of Jack, tells me he can't even make it half way into Day 2, so he probably won't even get this far), he's not going to set up some elabrote James Bond death trap and give him a pill bottle to tell him where to go
(since if Simon didn't do that, that cop even stated that Simon would have won, so seriously if not for the fact that Simon is an absolute dumbass (and remember, this is the height of "McClane-level stuff 😆 "😉, McClane would have lost)
Marwan is going to capture McClane and shoot him in the face. McClane is hilariously out of his league

McClane's most dangerous plot was the shutdown of all the electricity on the eastern seaboard causing one nuclear meltdown
Bauer stopped a plot to meltdown all nuclear reactors in the US, and that wasn't even the whole plan
Not to mention he's stopped a coninential pandemic
When McClane saves a continent we'll talk. 😆

Whats all this talk about Marwan capturing McClane?
Its a thread about Jack Bauer failing the DH gauntlet.
Besides Marwan would die and have an amusing quip laid at his body by a victorious McClane, if screen feats are anything to go by.
McClane interrogates Hans in DH1 (remember the scene where Paintball is mentioned?), Simon over the phone in DH3, gaining vital info that would go on to their respective asses getting killed up. If your implication is that McCalne cannot torture someone to gain info, I'd say you were speculating.
Just like you are saying that Marwan would be able to shoot McClane in the face. You ignored my previous perfectly good explanation that there may be many factors that would prevent that or prevent McDeath. (McDeath: happening once, not at least three times like with Bauer)

Well whos to say that if the Grubers, or any of the others had lived (espcially with their ill gotten power and finacial gains, that they wouldnt have done something on a continental level had McClane not stopped them...most were international operators. And that guy from DH4.0 probably had the capability to have messed with world level systems, himself.

So really, if Simon was not stupid, he would have won. So McClane couldn't even stop a plot of Simon's caliber, since Simon's defeat completely relied on him being stupid (and it was stupidity, because he had no reason to do it, but unreasonable pride, which, a grand total of...let me calculate here...NONE of Bauer's foes have, ESPECIALLY Marwan), so if he fails at even stopping that plot, how's he going to even hope to accomplish stopping Day 4's plot against actual terrorists. It's amazing what happens when you actual watch the material instead of making baseless accusations of your bias 😉
Matter of fact, I'm going to love him in Day 3. He's going to crash in on one of Saunder's couriers and get infected and die horribly 😆

-Terrorist suicide bombing on buses/SIX suitcase nukes
-Genocidal African dictator who has tech than can control the infrastructure threatening POTUS to withdraw peacekeeping troops or else he will blow the main tank of a pesticide plant, killing tens of thousands/Rogue PMC threatening to launch Missiles loaded with a pathogen at the US unless POTUS gives into demands/ PMC consortium threatens to start WWIII (Yes all of that in one day)

Remember he accomplished all the feats of DH3 with a monster hangover combined with excessive pill-taking. We've discussed the McClane constitution before Sadako, how could you forget?

Bierko is the kind of guy who, when seeing he's down to one can of nerve gas and the law hot on his trail, improvises to use it gas a docked submarine and launch missiles at the US in revenge.

Gotta give Bauer credit:
As TV villains go, his opponents were decent.
But most of this boils down to this:
Bauer lacks the credentials of being McSuperhumanly resistant to damage and as lucky/intuitive as McClane. Bauer might not have made it off of the roof or the out of the vent. And almost certainly not out of the Boardroom, and definitely not the whole movie.
If your argument is that Bauer could replicate McClane's moves then whats the point..? Peewee Herman could try to do everything that McClane did if he studied Die Hard enough, but since Peewee would lack the attributes, he'd fail.
Same with Bauer.

WTF does that mean. Bierko, who was only a secondary villain compared to Jack's main nemesis that day, the POTUS, makes Simon look like a fool in terms of intelligence and planning. And McClane would curl in a fetal position if he had to take on Marwan. That's the thing about TV characters. They have a lot more feats 😉

The point of this thread is can Bauer survive the Die Hard films. Since Bauer can replicate his feats, which allowed him to survive those films, he can easily do so as well. Sadly for McClane, he makes it maybe a few hours, before he has to take a time out to cry to a fat cop, which, considering how shit works on 24, would have allowed the terrorists to detonate a nuke because McClane didn't move fast enough

That's a complete strawman argument you have to pull out your ass because you have no defense that Bauer can easily survive the DH movies, whereas McClane can't handle even 48 hours in the life of Jack

Sadly for McClane, he makes it maybe a few hours, before he has to take a time out to cry to a fat cop, which, considering how shit works on 24, would have allowed the terrorists to detonate a nuke because McClane didn't move fast enough
😆 What the **** are you trying to say?
That's a complete strawman argument you have to pull out your ass because you have no defense that Bauer can easily survive the DH movies, whereas McClane can't handle even 48 hours in the life of Jack [/B]
Well, your Marwan facing reaction remains speculation: As Marwan didn't/couldn't man up and Face McClane.
Which is doubley moot anyways, as that is off topic.
Nope. DH 4 feats more or less solo by themselves.
Nah. DH 4 feats more or less solo by themselves, but all four films (maybe the fifth one too) kinda make that supposition laughable.
So you'd have had Bauer take on Hans and his guys when they had their meeting with Takagi? He'd have been NAILED...!!! Remember that they were way better shots than the guys that Bauer faced particularly Karl, who at one point was actually able to hit something, as he proved when he shot McClane.. (Naturally McClane went on like the champ he is and proceeded to boss the joint.)
He was stressed about not ever seeing his family again.
Of course, Bauer never even cared? 🙄
Besides its film lore 101. First tears fall, the the bullets rain hard.
You never saw Ichi The Killer, I take it...
Karl was machine Gunning through that vent and all the bullets missed McClane. "His wings are like a shield of steel"..
McClane always moves at exactly the right speed at which it is required that one moves at in order to save good guys and violate the badguys horribly, with time left for witty quips to be committed too..
