Brand-New "Die Hard 4" Trailer, Website Launch, Etc.
Already two of my movie-nerd pals have messaged me to complain about the "over-the-top" nature of this just-released "Live Free or Die Hard" trailer. I think those friends are nuts, because this is one seriously enticing little promo clip. (Plus, we have a new flipbook!)
"Somewhere between the jet fighter and Kevin Smith I forgot this was a John McClane flick," is what one of my friends whined, to which I responded, "Hey, throw in the kitchen sink if you want to. It's "Die Hard 4," for cryin' out loud, not a Merchant Ivory production."
Bigger, louder, faster is the way action sequels work, and I say this brand-new theatrical trailer does a fine job of selling "Live Free or Die Hard." Between the high-flying mega-mayhem and the always-cool Bruce Willis, the movie's already a guaranteed smash. Here's hoping it's up to the standards of its three predecessors! (I'm counting on you, Len Wiseman!)

Once you're done with the trailer, feel free to click around the newly-updated official site for the fourth "Die Hard" adventure, which hits screens (loudly) on June 27th.

on Apr 05 2007 05:45 AM [b]Sexy[/b] Damn Bruce Willis is lookin hot in this movie! He should always keep his head shaved! (Reply to this) |

on Apr 05 2007 05:58 AM Even I have to admit that some of the action scences are over the top. But who cares!!! It's John McClane, It's what your paying to see, Yippe Ki ya ....!!!! (Reply to this) |

on Apr 05 2007 06:14 AM This is definately going to be the biggest disappointment of the summer. As previously stated, this doesnt look like a DIE HARD film; but just another run of the mill summer yawn inducing action flick. And as stupid as it may sound, Willis hair made him John McClane. Seeing him bald seperates you from the character; it's like John Wayne without a cowboy hat or for that matter a hawaiin shirt wearing Harry Callahan. But as far as Im concerned by the trailer its already at three strikes, 1. Kevin Smith 2. The guy from MAC commercials 3. A bald Bruce Willis. (Reply to this) |

on Apr 05 2007 06:28 AM ya, thats the f-35b, newest one, can hover till it runs out of fuel!!! From what I saw from that scene it reminds me of the Harrier jet scene from True Lies. This movie is going to rule!!! (Reply to this) |

on Apr 05 2007 07:22 AM That is the fricking COOLEST action I've ever seen. Yipi Ki AAAAAAAAAAAHHH! (Reply to this) |

on Apr 05 2007 09:32 AM [b]Looks weak[/b] I have to agree with gratefuldawg; I don't know about it being the biggest disappointment of the summer, but it definitely has the potential. Bruce Willis just isn't John McClane anymore. Working with M. Night Shyamalan has ruined him. I don't think he'll be able to get back into character enough. Hopefully, I am wrong. As long as he doesn't spend the entire film in a state of quiet tension that he always seems to be in his other movies. And yeah, the guy from the Mac commercials is poison. We know John McClane is a badass; we don't need some schmuck following him around saying so. (Reply to this) |

on Apr 05 2007 10:04 AM Looks freaking awesome. This will not be a disappointment whatsoever. And people, it's John McClane. The guy's middle name should be Superman, because he can get out of any kind of situation. So in shorter words, it's always been over-the-top. "just another run of the mill summer yawn inducing action flick"...I'm gonna feel real sorry for you when you have to eat major crow... ...not really (Reply to this) |

on Apr 05 2007 11:35 AM McClane > All (Reply to this) |
on Apr 05 2007 01:09 PM all of them have been over the top...shutup. (Reply to this) |
|
on Apr 05 2007 01:22 PM I'd have to agree. Over the top. The first one rocked. When he jumps off the back of the plane.....haha, yeah, over the top. But I'm a sheep, I'll still see it. (Reply to this) |
on Apr 05 2007 03:21 PM i hope he takes on the government in this one. (Reply to this) |

on Apr 05 2007 04:23 PM LAME!!!!!!!! (Reply to this) |

on Apr 05 2007 06:57 PM In reply to this comment (#860325) "The first one... when he jumps off the back of that plane," eh? At least you're not confused about theis one looking kick-ass. Can't wait. Snobs need not attend. (Reply to this) |

on Apr 05 2007 07:52 PM [b]I'd rather see...[/b] Smith get dragged behind the Jet Fighter. This thing has stinkeroo written all over it. For all I know, if I was going into this trailer blind, it could pass for numerous Bruce Willis movies. It could be a sequel to Mercury Rising, Last Boy Scout, Hostage or North for that matter. You can't go home again (for the fourth time), especially when you force feed the audience. (Reply to this) |

on Apr 06 2007 05:26 AM no he didn't just jump off a moving fighter jet. ugh... (Reply to this) |
on Apr 06 2007 09:09 AM You guys think too much. (Reply to this) |
|
on Apr 06 2007 10:00 AM In reply to this comment (#860329) I was a little confusing. I mean Die Hard rocked. And in the TRAILER for this one, when he jumps off the back of the plane, that is ridiculous. (Reply to this) |
