No Right Answer: Lethal Weapon Vs. Die Hard

Lethal Weapon Vs. Die Hard

You can never have too much of a good thing, unless that good thing is machismo. Body oder becomes intense, fists get thrown and no one ask for directions ... ever. So if there is only room for one action movie series on the shelf, which will it be? The boys take Die Hard vs Lethal Weapon to the gym, and see who benches the most.

A great fan of Die Hard since I grew up with the movies, but Chris puts up a good argument.

And PMSL at the quote of the week.

 

[BrotherRool]

How on earth did you manage to defeat the _Alan Rickman_ argument? He's frickin' Alan frickin' Rickman?

I take my hat off to you sir

 

[Frozen Donkey Wheel2]

Why did Chris get a point for "Gary Busey is officially to old for this shit"? That doesn't even mean anything!

Seriously, why does Chris ALWAYS win?

 

[therandombear]

I side with Lethal Weapon...mostly because I've watched the movies tons of times...and never actually seen Die Hard. >.>

 

[SlightlyEvil]

I have to vote Die Hard. Lethal Weapon, while a great film, is very much of its time. Die Hard, on the other hand, could just as easily be set today (swap out the Japanese corporate overlords for Chinese and away we go). Die Hard has a rare combination of a great, relatable-yet-badass hero, and a diabolically awesome villain.

Only reasoning you need with Gary Buesy is that he's, well, Gary Buesy.

Alan Rickman is much nicer than the overwhelming majority of his roles would make you think. He once followed my friend (who was working on a play he was in in London at the time) for 3 blocks trying to get her attention just to say good morning. His first words when she finally realized he was there were "That must be some bloody good music you're listening to."

Gary Busey still terrifies me, but I kind of want to work with him someday. Just to see if he's that nuts away from the media.

Going to have to disagree with the winner of this round.

Die Hard is vastly superior to Lethal weapon.

 

[Sovereignty]

I really think Kyle should have just kept saying Bruce Willis' most famous line from that movie, over... and over... and over.....


Seriously his arguments did die hard no justice!

 

[JochemDude]

Lethal Weapon ain't got shit on this guy

That's all the argument you need

 

[GonzoGamer]

I'm with Die Hard.
Seriously, the original is probably my favorite action movie of all time... AND one of my all time favorite Christmas Movies too.
Bruce Willis as the hero and Alan Rickman as the villain. Really, what more could you ask for?

 

[esperandote]

I haven't seen letal weapon but im going to say Die hard is better.

Also, die hard had Samuel L. Jackson

 

[RTR]

I couldn't have asked for a better intro.

Now that I thinkg about it, having Alan Rickman as a second dad would be awesome. Also, I didn't know he was Jafar.

 

[scarab7]

I would have mentioned Bruce Willis shot himself in four and still got the bad guy. Toilet bomb for the win, low blow man, low blow.

 

[Kojiro ftt]

I can't believe you guys even had this discussion. I don't know any guy who doesn't own and watch Die Hard on a regular basis. But Lethal Weapon? My mom is the only person I know who owns those movies, nobody else.

 

[Kenjitsuka]

Bah, sucks that Die Hard didn't win.
Kyle, I like you, but you loose way too often

 

[RandV80]

Didn't Lethal Weapon have Jet Li as a bad guy? That's a pretty terrifying concept right there... although loses points for the fact that Gibson and Glover manage to pull out a two on one win against him in the end.
