went to watch Die Hard 4.0 today, and i tell you, it was one hell of a flick! i've never been so amazed by an action flick before this one. the actions were terrific (recall: the cool escape from a missile-firing F35 jet which includes a trailer which got smashed from the top and broken highways, the crazy fight with evil chick Mai played by Maggie Q that ended up with her going down with a car that burst into flames at the bottom of an elevator shaft, that insane scene at the tunnel where john mcclane totally beat a helicopter with a car... actually, there are tons of it, but if i mention every single one of them, that's no fun). and the witty lines are the best, for both the good guys and bad guys alike. here are some that i can remember:
Thomas Gabriel, the baddie, reminds John McClane how unwise it is to tell matt farrell and war10ck to trace his IP in front of him:"Detective, covering the webcam does not turn off the mike."
Lucy, John's daughter, and Matt Farrell gets to know each other after they were caught by Gabriel's men.Matt: hey.. i'm matt. matt farrell.
Lucy: i'm lucy.. lucy mcclane.
Matt: i thought your name was lucy genoro?
Lucy: not today.
matt is amazed after seeing how john managed to overthrow one bad guy stylishly.matt: did you see that?
john: see what? i did that.
when gabriel first got in contact with john.gabriel: officer mcclane..
john: it's
DETECTIVE mcclane, you a******e.
matt asks john about their plan to save lucy (and the rest of america).matt: so what's the plan?
john: find lucy, and kill everybody else.
matt: i know, but how do you do that?!
also, just now i received this in my email inbox from one of my french class classmates..rather meaningful..
-Nobody is perfect until you fall in love with them.
-Love starts with a smile, grows with a kiss, and ends with a tear.
-Don't cry over anyone who won't cry over you.
-What do you do when the only person who can make you stop crying is the person who made you cry?
-The hardest thing to do is watch the one you love, love somebody else.
-If u love something...let it go.
If it comes back to you it's yours....
If it doesn't then it never was.
-A kiss is just a kiss until you find the one you love. A hug is just a hug until it's from the one you're thinking of. A dream is just a dream until you make it come true. LOVE is just a word until it's proven to you.
