<< < (8/10) > >>

ummmkay:
okay, okay, i will add to my previous statement that i don't really like movies of that sort anyway and the fact that the title is idiotic just seals the deal for me. also i have never seen die hard. DON'T HATE ME

Jimor:
Well, I'm not going to say you're not allowed to dislike the title, but the movie literally exists because of it, so in the marketing sense, it's the kind of pure genius that strikes once or twice a generation.

[Cowboys and Indians. Cowboys and Indians. Cowboys and Indians. Cowboys and Indians. Cowboys and Indians... Cowboys and Aliens? Cowboys and ALIENS!!! Holy Fuck! I just created a license to print money!]

And reading the Production History, that's exactly what the guy set out to do.

Kugai:
"Good evening Dr. Jones"
"What's yer name boy?"
"Bond.  James Bond."

ginandphonics:
"Writers Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzmann say one of the biggest challenges was convincing Harrison Ford he could wear a hat that wouldn't immediately remind everyone of Indiana Jones."

Lies, damned lies.
