What would John McLane do?


I couldn't help imagining during the scene where Siad has returned to Israel alone and is waiting for the bus, what would Die Hard's John McClane do in this situation? He'd highjack that bus and go Grand Theft Auto style and start running over people and pets, and get a fleet of police cars chasing before crashing the bus into a gasoline tanker parked outside the Prime Minister's mansion, detonating himself, the cops, the politicians, and several city blocks in a victorious fireball.

An attempt at humour I assume?

I don't think John McClane would blow himself up;
I think he would turn up in the entrance of the bus, blow Saïd's head clean off and go "yippekayee, *beep*
But I'm glad he didn't, that would have been a shame for Paradise Now.


What are you,DENSE? RETARDED or something? Who the hell do you THINK I am? I'm the goddamn Batman!

I could see if he had an ugly girlfriend or had bad teeth and was all shot up drugs all the time and felt completely worthless. But chicks obviously dug him (hot ones too), so there is no way he would blow himself up. It's stupid.

There's a little bit more to the world than that.

Voting Democrat over Republican is like asking your rapist to use a condom.
