Die Hard

By a pretty huge margin.

That. Movie. Is. Perfect.

Probably Kid A, although I have memories so firmly attached to it that I don’t know that I’d want to.

I watch YouTube just fine on Firefox.

Some plugins to Adblock but that’s it.

Nobody tells this guy when to cum!

And I mean nobody!

Hi friend!

Now you do.

Also reported, although the drivel is so bad it’s funny.

I don’t know what I expected but that was mortifying.

Great list!

I’d move some around a bit but very close to what I remember when I watched them all like 5-6 years ago.

The George Lazenby one is truly underrated.

It’s fun watching theater kids fight.

I was IN loss prevention. Literal store detective.

Did we catch the occasional shoplifter? Yes.

Were they as common or as high dollar value as employees skimming or scamming? Abso-fucking-lutely not.

If you’re in retail, rest assured, those folks are there to catch you more than they’re there to catch shoplifters.

I understand how, in retrospect, it may feel like it isn’t groundbreaking, but do consider that before Die Hard, there really wasn’t anything quite like it.

A quote straight from Wikipedia:

It is considered to have revitalized the action genre, largely due to its depiction of McClane as a vulnerable and fallible protagonist, in contrast to the muscle-bound and invincible heroes of other films of the period.

While it did sort of fall apart and away from what made it great in the later sequels, I think it’s important to put the film into the context of when it was released and what it did to the genre.

All that to say, Die Hard fucking rules.

Pass.

I love horror and this ain’t it, bud.
