Best Magritte homage ever.
Word.
Although, it got muddied with the 'let's play ball' line, which McTiernan doesn't quite adequately explain. It came down to 'I liked the line.'
Somehow weaving in something about anonymity would have been more confluent and literary-y, but hey, still a great scene.
Die Hard rules. Rules, I tell you.
In the Best Action Picture of all time category I nominate
Bad Boys II.
Your one stop shop for clever use of corpses.
Problem is, everything else about that movie sucked. I loved the first one a lot, and they'd have to pay me to see a III now.
Although, just for inspiring so much of the
Hot Fuzz
cinematography--I am grateful to them for that.
Yeah Hot Fuzz went a long way towards convincing me that it's OK that I liked Bad Boys II.
Fuck y'all all. FUCKIN' HARD BOILED!!!! If you've never seen it in a theater (or a really superlative home system) you've never really seen it.
Hard Boiled is on my list. That's the sequel to Infernal Affairs, right?
Okay, okay, if we're straying out of English language, I wouldn't even bother comparing
Die Hard
to Woo's best.
not to mention Luc Besson.
