Jack Bauer runs the Die Hard Gauntlet

you say McClane can do the same thing? He can take out terrorist compounds using only a handgun and not get shot? Really? Can I see this proof, which you fail to represent

That's basically your reply to everything: Bauer would have shot them. I find that hard to see if he doesn't have a gun. Bauer fails DH2 too. /period

When did I say that? But considering his insane luck and resourcefulness and the apparent idiocy of Bauer's adversaries. It's probably possible, but more so cos of the weak adversaries than McClane's awesomeness.

He took out the terrorist infested NY in Die Hard 3 without getting shot once.
He did took out four hitman in an elevator, using one of their own guns to take out the other three.
He also wasn't shot in Die Hard 2, where he killed bad guy after bad guy, many of them all at once, saving the hostages. 🙂

This is what I anticipated. Even after pointing out how stupid it is for people who haven't watched the show to make judgement on this thread, it happened anyway, and I knew it would be those few people too. 7 Pages of uninformed baloney.

I don't mind. Quite honestly, I'm just humoring them because Robtard is reminding of RJ with his illogical bias towards characters he has some sort of sexual attraction to against a character whom they are hopelessly outclassed,, and I kind of miss RJ, so this is a good subsititue

You're clearly just as biased towards Bauer as I am McClane; possibly more since Bauer is now launching cars and H2Hing F-35s. So hello, Mr. Pot.

I get the impression you want me to have a homosexual attraction to McClane, does this fantasy do something for you?

The difference being that I can actually back Bauer's feats against McClane. The facts I'm bringing to the table are real and documented.

You haven't shown anything McClane has done (including the Ford launch) that Jack couldn't have easily replicated or done even better provided he was placed in the same circumstances

You can down-play McClane.

See what I mean, "Bauer can do anything McClane can do, only better."

Because (short of the car-launch, because he's never found himself in those circumstances) Bauer HAS done everything McClane can do AND done it better. Name me some stuff McClane has done that Bauer can't replicate if he was placed in the same circumstances.

See, Bauer withstood 20 months straight of torture without saying a single word out of sheer willpower and then on the day he came back killed 50 people. See, McClane doesn't have feats on this level, so it's not something that McClane can replicate

Matter of fact, there's no proof that he can even achieve that level of durability at all. See. This is what I mean. I can back Bauer in this fight, whether or not I was a fan, because his feats are documented. It's not a question of whether Bauer outclasses him, it's a certainty

But since I have such a bias, tell me, what are some of these feats that McClane has? You have yet to present them.

Big mouth for a small bite, I guess.....

And you still haven't answered how McClane lasts even an hour into Habib Marwan's terrorist plot

That car-launch was pretty much impossible, in non whacky-super-cop-action-hero-land that car would have smashed into the tollbooth; possibly through it and that would have been that.

Illogical conclusion. Bauer withstood torture and killed people, ergo he can launch a car and defy reality.

Matter of fact, McClane has since he's lives in loony-toon-action-land.

So Bauer can't replicate it because he lives in a different universe?

Is that seriously the best you can come up with?

LoL. Can Bauer replicate say bending bullets? After all, he's killed more people than Wesley and survived torture; even climbed a wall after.

So (in regards to McClane) you think going down in a plane crash shot down by a commando team trying to kill you is less intense than an exploding apartment?

No answer to my question?

I'd have to see the plane crash. "Plane crash" is very vague.

McClane was married to Holly for at least 5 years.

5 YEARS.

My apologies. I completely forgot about Jack saving hundreds of thousands of people by running into an exploding natural gas plant to apprehend the terrorist, despite the fact that shit was blowing up millimeters away from him. That outclasses every explosion McClane's every had to tank, especially some small apartment

Nope. It doesnt.

And McClane saved more than hundreds of thousands, by cramming a whole SUV up a lady's backside then saving the entire eastern seaboard from nuclear reactor doom/firesale lunacy. (This was after taking the chopper down, and before killing the jet.)

While Bauer is laughing at that pathetic counter-terrorist scramble, he'll lament about how he had to stop 104 nuclear reactors from melting down in every power plant in the country, and then he'll lament how he had to saved the entire continent from a pandemic
And then he'll lament about how he single-handedly stopped WWIII (This was after going down in a plane and killing everybody who did it, and then...killing everybody else)

Whilst he is at it, he can lament his lack of box office action, also his lack of having survived 4 Die Hard movies. (as well as his own TV series..😛 )

It's okay. He'll just lament his various Emmy awards and what many call being one of the greatest and most innovative shows ever created. How many awards has Die Hard won?

Jack is too dignified to take on terrorist plots as lowly as the one in the DH films in comparison to the ones he takes out .

Let's talk about McClane's lack of being able to possible survive just a 24-hour period in the life of Jack, whereas Jack usually defeats villains of DH caliber and their merc teams on an hourly basis.

Also, Bauer doesn't have the advantage of the main villain letting him live AND giving him evidence. Bauer actually works for his evidence with his SKILLS. He isn't completely reliant on his adversary deciding just for plot convenience to drop the ball. Like I said, the fact that Simon's retarded ass was the most intelligent of McClane's adversaries REALLY takes McClane down several tiers

See Bauer's an actual badass. He doesn't go up against dumbass chumps (like Karl, who didn't use his opportunity to shoot him, or that F-35 pilot) like McClane does. Bauer actually takes on legitimate threats, and not guys who wandered off of the nearby Down Syndrome center

Not to mention, as I've stated, McClane would have gotten his ass captured and gave in like a little piggy to the torture in minutes. And definitely wouldn't have lasted an hour and a half. You say that he would have tanked it? PLEASE prove it
