Christmas Video Vault – Gremlins

Gremlins

‘Tis the season to wreck havoc. Joe Dante’s 1984 tale of that loveable and unique Christmas gift which turns out to be more trouble than he’s worth is now a firm festive favourite, and similar to Die Hard, it has earned a loving place on that list whilst using the holidays ostensibly as a hook [...]

A Good Day To Die Hard – Hunt On For John Jr.

Die Hard

Many remain ambivalent regarding the news of another Die Hard entry being officially greenlit. I have sincerely got nothing but love for the franchise and although I think Die Hard 4.0 / Live Free or Die Hard suffered from being artificially squeezed into a more “friendly” rating/certificate, it was still a welcome and commendable addition [...]

John McClane Returns On Valentine’s Day 2013 In A Good Day To Die Hard

Die Hard

It’s been four years since Bruce Willis last took up the part of John McClane for the fourth time in Die Hard 4.0 / Live Free Or Die Hard, and after taking almost $400m. at the box office, the film showed that there’s clearly still a lot of love for the franchise today, despite the [...]

John Moore

The Die Hard film franchise has been one of the most successful series of films in recent years, taking over $1bn. at the box office since the first film came out back in 1988. Talk of the series’ fifth film has been going on for some time now, and Deadline report that the search for [...]

Will Die Hard 5 Send McClane To Russia?

John McClane

Die Hard 4.0 (or Live Free or Die Hard if you prefer, though why would you?) saw John McClane back on our screens to surprising but welcome success after a decade plus change away. Unlike other recently revived action franchises (I’m looking at you, Rambo), 4.0 showed there was life in the Die Hard dog [...]

A Girl on Boy Action: The Expendables and More

80's movies

As my title suggests, I am a female. Gal, lady, woman, chick, girl.  In some ways I could even be considered a girlie girl.  I like to shop.  I love shoes.  Heels specifically.  I tend to get cranky if I have a bad hair day and I never go to work without putting on my [...]

Welcome aboard the rumour train, next stop? Reboot City. Word has leaked from the mouth of AICN of the rumoured titles for the next films and the Die Hard and Fantastic Four franchises, and while this is barely news of any description they are specific enough to give clues to the directions they may be [...]

Bruce Willis to Die Hard Again

Die Hard - Bruce Willis

The fourth film in the Die Hard series divided cinema audiences and Die Hard die hards. Its deviation form the previous three films made it an odd end to the story of John McClane. Fear not though, as there’s an update to the comment Bruce Willis made recently about a probable fifth Die Hard film, [...]

Six of the Best – Bruce Willis

surrogates1

This week, Bruce Willis stars in the sci-fi action movie Surrogates, directed by Jonathan Mostow. At one time this would have made it a marquee release, with a huge promotional push, but there’s been very little hype about it. Is Willis’ star fading? To put it in perspective, if Will Smith was the star of [...]
