will totally Facebook friend you! *giggle* *LOL*
Aaron Paul is like the only one that would remotely increase ticket sales. James Badge Dale and the like are alright, but totally listless to the public at large.

I don't know where you got the idea that these guys should look 20. A 20 year-old would have to be born in 1991 -- 3 years after the originals release.

The actress that played Lucy in Die Hard is 30, FYI.

James Badge Dale is 31, Aaron Paul is 32, DJ Contra is 31, and drumroll.... Liam Hemsworth is 21.

For a 2013 release, all of these guys could be made to look around 30 -- which they are! Bruce Willis is 56 FFS. Get over it.

If you read the next sentence where it says 1988, you would recognise a simple mistake.
I was under the impression that "a X year old" (with the emphasis on 'a' ) meant the same thing as "in his twenties", but apparently I was wrong. That still doesn't mean the very next sentence does not directly show what I had in mind. (young kids, 1988)

Also I did not give a shit about how old they are in real life or look in different pictures. It did say 'look' in caps.
(btw, wikipedia claims the son to be from 1984, so he won't pass 30 anyway if they stick with that year.)

"Since the first Die Hard in 1988, John McClane has found himself in the wrong place at the wrong time, with the skills and attitude to always be the last man standing, making him enemy #1 for terrorists the world over. Now, McClane faces his greatest challenge ever, this time on an international stage, when his estranged son Jack is caught up in the daring prison escape of a rogue Russian leader, and father and son McClane must work together to keep each other alive and keep the world safe for democracy."

I love me some Die Hard, and as ridiculous as this plot sounds, it at least sounds like they're getting to the roots of what made Die Hard a franchise: action in confined spaces with no way out.
 
Starring Varro? Nice.

From the writer of Wolverine and the director of Max Payne? Blech.

BTW, petition a mod for a thread title change or make a new topic.

Live Free or Die Hard is a great action movie, but it doesn't really feel like Die Hard.

I was hoping for Aaron Paul, too. Never seen Spartacus.

I agree with this. Live Free or Die Hard was all over the place. I feel like Die Hard movies are supposed to make it seem that everything is out of John's hands yet he still finds a way.

Ahaha, this is just funny.

Die Hard is a franchise about family. The Wife in a Skyscrapper, wife in a plane, brother from another mother vs nº1 vilain's brother, the son I never had is a nerd and also my daughter's future laid, and now....my actual son looks like an asshole.

Two more actors have signed on for the upcoming fifth Die Hard installment, A Good Day to Die Hard. Variety reports that Sebastian Koch and Yulia Snigir have signed on for villainous roles, playing characters named Komorov and Irina, respectively. They join Bruce Willis, returning as John McClane, and Jai Courtney, playing his son, Jack.

The film puts McClane on an international stage -- truly a NYC fish out of water in Moscow -- and introduces his estranged son Jack. An apple that has not fallen far from the tree, Jack may even be more of a hardass than his father. Despite their differences, they must work together to keep each other alive – and the world safe for democracy.

Koch is best known for roles in The Lives of Others, Black Book and Unknown while Snigir, a Russian model, is making her English-language film debut.

A Good Day to Die Hard begins production next month, aiming for a February 14, 2013 release.

Rated R or bust!

Good luck. This is John Moore, Rothman's puppet, making this. There's no way it's going to be R rated. Even if they somehow do an "unrated" cut, it'll be just like Max Payne, with ridiculous stock sound effects and horrible CGI blood thrown in during the editing process. This is going to be a sterilized PG-13 action film that will be boring as shit. Moore is the only director I've ever seen that can take interesting premises and fuck them up and make them as boring as he does. He somehow sucks any excitement out of the movies he makes.

John Moore? ewwwwwww

Can't be worse than Max Payne? right? please be right? please.. oh god no.

Max Payne? That was his least offensive film. How about Flight of the Phoenix remake? The Omen remake? Behind Enemy Lines? All absolutely terrible.
