Don't recall nerve gas or suicide bombers anywhere in there. And even if they did borrow an idea from Die Hard, they sure as hell outdid it as well (I'd much rather watch the entire 24 series than the entire Die Hard series).
Also, like I stated, they were far more dangerous than Hans and his boys, and put the airport terminal in a far more dangerous position than the people in Nakatomi Plaza were. So compared to them, Bauer would trash the Nakatomi mercs, using the proven tactics I outlined here:
Listen, it was a direct copy from Die Hard and Die Hard 2, just going to have to deal with the facts. 24 COPIED DIE HARD AND DIE HARD 2
Though Bauer did surrender like a ***** just 35-45 mins into the terrorist taking over the terminal. So I'll have to see if they copy any more of the DH films going forward into the season.
1) I have a 100% track record of countering all your "evidence" as I get to those parts in the series
2) Your evidence is still inadmissible in the MVF, so I counter it only as a courtesy to you

Once again, far deadlier threats than Hans and his boys. Are you telling me based on the videos I just posted than Bauer won't skullcap them exactly the way I described?
So ignore the evidence posted? Bauer fell for the lesser ruse of the assassin, he didn't bother checking her ID and just accepted she was an FBI agent cos he had a shiny little badge, one that can be picked up for the price of a Coke and a bag of chips at the local novelty store. Pure amateur hour from Bauer in that scene.

The "lesser ruse of an assassin?"
Massive McDownplaying. Habib and his 5-year-trained terrorist cell who threatened a nuclear holocaust are far above lessercommon thieves such as Hans and his amateur crew, who get so distracted by candy bars that they don't do patdowns .
Given your McDownplaying, I'm not surprised by your blindness
All the female assassin did was take the dead FBI Agents badge, clip it to her waist and Bauer fell for the ruse. That's far lesser than Hans changing his voice, demeanor and putting on an Oscar-worthy performance. Which McClane didn't fall for with his super insight.

Pure unmitigated Mcbias for a few reasons.
1)You massively downplay the FBI impostor. she spent 5 years training for an attack that massively outweighs Han's chump plans and put on a far better performance than Hans.
2) You massively overhype Hans' performance. He still had a noticeable accent, his demeanor didn't really change, and it definitely wasn't "Oscar-worthy".
3) Bauer was able to see through his own brother's lies, and his brother is a farrr better liar than Hans, so Hans would be detected by Bauer and have his neck eaten immediately
4) Chicken McBytch nearly fell for the same ruse in DH3, but didn't because he recognized the badge number. Had he not met that guy earlier in the film, he wouldn't have detected the impostor in the elevator through any intellectual means and would've eaten a bullet.
Tell that to Fayed and Nokavich. Bauer manhandled their entire squads single-handedly
Now, let's talk about why McClane always likes to hang around smooth black guys......
1) Her "five year planning" had nothing to do with her killing an FBI Agent, taking the badge and Bauer being duped by said shiny badge. Considering what was at stake, you'd think he'd have the common sense to ask for ID.
2) LoL, wut? He had a completely different accent and demeanor was of a scared civilian; he was effectively not Hans Gruber anymore. Oscar worthy.
3) Great, he knows when his brother is lying. I do too with my bros, since we grew up together.
4) "Nearly fell" isn't the same as "completely fell for the ruse", one is still successful while he other is pure failure. Thank you for proving that Hans would have tricked Bauer and Bauer dies in Die Hard, about 60mins in.

1) She can improvise. Non-Amateur professional terrorists are capable of doing that.
2) Until the Academy confirms this, I'm saying that your judgement is McBullshit
3) Well in that case, Christopher Henderson. Henderson is also a far better liar than McClane, and [SPOILER - highlight to read]: Bauer force-feeds him a bullet in cold blood
4) Once again, it ended with a bullet in her face, so thanks for proving Hans dies halfway into Die Hard.

McClane didn't ask for evidence with elevator guy, so he's just as guilty of amateur hour-ness.
His ruse sucked, which is why am average cop like McClane could spot it instantly
He's smart enough to nearly cause WWIII out of revenge
Once again, you assume it would get to that point in the film. It won't. Bauer will WTFpwn Hans and his McChump mercs Nokavich-consulate style and end the siege before Hans even has time to fully interrogate Takagi.
Also, it's funny, considering that's exactly what elevator guy did. He exposed himself by wearing the badge of a guy who happened to be McChump's partner earlier that day. McClane did not have the resourcefulness to detect him just via instant observation, as you are trying to play his intelligence up to be.
Because it's common to ask an elevator guy for ID? LoL. Scrapping the barrel.
Incorrect, it was a complete transformation. Hans was channeling the spirit of Stanislavski. Stop downplaying.
But not check ID. Is he an idiot savant maybe?
Sure it would. You're "Bauer runs in and kills all while doing backflips" is just fanboyism. He'd be busy looking for a phone to call Tony for the first 60mins.
That just proves that McClane has super powers of observation. Thank you for pointing out another McClane+.

You are scraping the barrel. Bauer would never fall for such a piss-poor acting performance. Assassin chick was a far better actress than Hans
Bauer wouldn't be fooled. He's taken on worse liars
Once again, Assassin chick put on a far better performance than Hans or Elevator guy. Bauer would spot their shoddy performances immediately
Wrong. You are downplaying. Watch the videos. Bauer one-mans terrorist compounds on an hourly basis, and those terrorists are far more dangerous than McChump's villains
