Sly is back! Again!

So we get a Rocky movie and Rambo movie in back to back years?

Sylvester Stallone gets credit for one thing...he knows what he can do (be Rocky, or Rambo), and he knows what he CAN'T do (be someone besides Rocky, or Rambo).

Bruce Willis knows this well...Die Hard, Die Harder, Die Hard Until You're Dead, Die Harderer. All of them = AWESOME. What's not to love?

Actually, I'm being rough on ol' Bruce. He's been in plenty of movies that weren't Die Hard. Of course, most of the characters were developed for him so he just had to be McLane again. Seriously though...The 5th Element, good. Whole 9 Yards, good. 6th Sense, good. Even Sin City, and hey, I'll go out on a limb here and say Unbreakable was good, too. Don't you love when you get what you want? You're going to a Bruce Willis movie, he gives you Bruce Willis.

There was this sort of running joke that we were going to name our son Bruce Willis, then change our last name from Jolly to Willis. It probably won't happen, but at least we can still do the Die Hard theme in the nursery. Growin' up Bruce, y'all.

I could have done without the Mac guy in the last Die Hard movie. And yeah, I find it hard to believe you were using your Mac computer to hack all that crap (he was actually using a Mac in the film...he's probably got some stipulation built in that says he can't be seen using a PC or else he loses the money gig with Apple). All told however, Mac guy did a respectable job, but he had a lot of help from whoever was writing his lines. He was also exactly what I was expecting....jittery, counter-culture geek.

It's refreshing to get what you're expecting.

You were probably expecting me to say a little more about Sly and Rambo. Sorry about that.
