Smoking cigarettes and watching Captain Kangaroo.

TF2 and Mike. This is Studio 2009. Only on the
Geekcast Radio Network. Joining me, as always,
is Steve Megatron. Hello, sir. How are you? Good.
How are you? I'm going crazy, don't you know?
That's normal. Around here at this point, after
17 years, yeah, pretty much. Or as Primal would
say, sometimes crazy works. I don't know how
I'm going to make that work, but we'll try. Oh,
God, it didn't even change. Jesus, Mike. It's
a good thing you don't see the scripts I use.
Oh, boy. Anyway, today in episode 143 of the
podcast, we continue on in the Christmas in July.
In July, vengeance grows there, because it is
Die Hard with a Vengeance, 1995, May 19th, 1995,
if I'm not mistaken. Hopefully I have that correct,
because heaven forbid I have to correct myself
again. Yes, May 19th, 1995, in theaters, 30 years
ago this year, Die Hard with a Vengeance. We
are covering all five Die Hard films here in
Christmas in July. I'm just going to say it hands
down, this is my favorite of the five films.
If I had to watch Die Hard on repeat, this would
be the one I could watch on repeat. Nothing?
I was going to say, you don't want to watch Die
Hard 5 as your favorite? I've never seen it so
far until we get to it, and yeah, nope. I don't
know. Maybe we'll, maybe that'll, I don't know,
but Yippee -ki -yay, Mother Russia isn't exactly
inspiring, but no, with a vengeance, I don't
know if... I saw this in theaters or not. I know
I was 15 at the time when it came out. I know
I saw a lot of movies in theaters in 95, but
I don't remember if I saw this in theaters or
not. And again, as we've done in the others,
we are going to die, die, die hard as we can.
Yippee -ki -yay, motherfucker. No one dies harder
than John McClane saving all the passengers on
the train, but Simon wasn't clear with his intentions.
It was just a distraction. And there was no way
McClane could know that Hans Gruber was Simon's
bro, and that's what made it Die Hard with a
Vengeance with Samuel L. Jackson. Uh, the good
cop wouldn't miss this, even though it wasn't
Christmas. Ha ha. Not Christmas. Uh, didn't get
any help from Al, but only in part three. And
we're going to die, die, die, die hard, die as
hard as we can. So that's pretty much what this
one is. And yeah, no, I, I don't know what it
is about this one. I really like this one a lot.
I like the addition of Zeus. you know, Samuel
L. Jackson's character. It's just like, and again,
so the first three films. This is essentially
John Wick before John Wick was John Wick. Because
even though the John Wick movies take place like
a day or so apart from each other or whatever
it is. I remember that off the top of my head.
These movies, Die Hard, Die Harder, and With
a Vengeance all take place a year apart from
each other. Because they specifically say in
this, it's been a year since John and Holly had
their fight on the phone. He says that in this
movie because he then ends up leaving her on
the pay. Because at the close to the end of the
movies, it was like, yeah, just call her, call
her. Here's a quarter. Call somebody who cares.
Yada, yada, yada. Calls her up on the pay phone,
asks the consuela or whatever the maid's name
is. Is Holly there? Holly gets to the phone and
obviously I think that's the truck scene or something.
John has to go and save the day or whatever else
and leaves Holly on the phone. Later he's like,
oh crap, I left Holly on the phone. Zeus is like,
yeah, just call her back. I did find that funny
that he said that to her. Yeah. But yeah, no.
Watching this, I almost didn't have to watch
it, but I knew I was going to anyway because
I just love this movie. And what I love about
this movie is the distractions, the look this
way so I can do this over here, the this, the
that, the other thing. And then obviously it
all boils down because the Gruber family are
just money grubbers. It's just a heist. It's
just a this. It's just a distraction. Yeah, it's
just the gold. They just want the money. Like...
Back in the 80s and 90s when plots were simpler
and they just wanted the money. Well, I find
it funny, too, that that Simon didn't want he
didn't really care about hurting the kids. He
used that as a distraction. He didn't really
care about, you know, anything. He just want
to keep John McClane busy. And it felt like a
fun grudge because he was just like, I don't
like John McClane because he did kill my brother.
But at the same time, I didn't like him much
anyway. Yeah. And so he made it personal. But
at the same time, at the end of the day. That
wasn't his plot. He didn't care. No, he didn't
care. He didn't care at all. What are some of
your thoughts on With a Vengeance? I genuinely
liked it. One, you got Sam Jackson. Yep. Who's
awesome. Yep. But then you also get... You get
John McClane in this weird situation. I find
it funny that at the beginning of the movie,
he's a drunk. They had to go fish him out. Yep.
You can tell the dude's had a hard life. He's
lived through a lot of crap. He's just like,
I'm just a mess. And he knew he was a mess. Yep.
And then all of the crazy stuff that He ended
up having to deal with, but I think he played
well off of Sam Jackson as well. Oh, absolutely.
Between the Zeus character trying to save him.
Yeah. And he's like, call 911. I got to stop
somebody from getting killed at the beginning.
Yeah. And then Simon calls him the Samaritan.
as they're going about but i don't know i there
there was a lot here that made it different from
the first two yeah oh yeah in a different and
better way like i yes a lot of the explosions
a lot of the you know unrealistic things that
happened between all three movies uh the first
was probably the most realistic realistic out
of the three uh the second was kind of like out
there This one's just as much out there in some
ways, but at the same time, you got an entirely
different situation with the heist. Getting away
from the exploding ship. Yeah. There's no way
they would have survived that. But again, it
was unique. And so for that, I genuinely enjoyed
what they did with it. Yeah, absolutely. And
the one thing I noticed on the rewatches that
we've been doing with the first three films is
that the explosions at the end of every film,
the rooftop explosion where John gets blown,
not blown apart, but he gets blown back, the
explosion where he's in the plane because he
gets in the ejector seat and he gets blown out
from there. And then the explosion in this. And
I'm like, huh, they're not all the same explosion,
but they're all very similar looking explosions
kind of thing. And I was like, huh, they kind
of matched it. Not really, but it was very, very
interesting to see all of that. But yeah. And
yeah, Jeremy Irons is a perfect foil as as. Hans'
brother, Simon. And they did the whole Simon
Says thing, of course, because, you know... Oh,
boy. I would hate... Just, man, that would be...
That's kind of like me with that stupid cereal.
Which one? You know which one. Do I? Yeah, you
do. Life. Oh, look, Mikey, he likes it. No, I
don't. I've never liked Life. Not enough sugar.
Anyway. But, like, it's just like, oh, look,
Simon Says. Oh, look, there's a game named Simon
Says and this, that, and everything else. But,
you know, but Jeremy Irons, man, like. This was
the, I can safely say, looking at his filmography,
this was the second time I had, the first time
I'd seen him on screen, but the second time I
had heard his voice, because the first time I
heard his voice was a year before as Scar in
The Lion King. Oh no, Mufasa, it's you who should
be afraid of whatever his line was. Uh, but yeah,
no. And then I actually, um, dungeon, he was
in dungeons and dragons. Uh, I mean, he's a wonderful
actor. He's done a bunch of stuff. Kingdom of
heaven, Aragon. Uh, he was in the pink Panther
too. I'm assuming is the villain. I don't know.
Batman V Superman justice league. Really? Oh,
really? He was Alfred. Oh, that's right. Yeah.
And he was, he's probably the best Alfred we've
had in a while. No joke. Like he legitimately,
like he actually was like working in the bat
cave and like that's coming up with stuff. Like
he was actually like that, that mentor and you
know, the one that you expected kind of like
the, uh, the one from the animated series. Yep.
It was very hands on. Yeah. Yeah. Very cool.
Very cool. I'm looking at his TV credits to see
if there was anything. Oh, yeah, Dr. Captain
Jackson on two episodes of SVU for Law & Order.
He was the bar rag on The Simpsons. He was the
voice of the bar rag in two of The Simpsons episodes
from years ago. but yeah no he just has that
that presence and he's got that gravitas he's
he's like he's like a lot of those actors that
have that kind of specialized voice that have
that kind of certain tone that just kind of command
it you know like almost like a morgan freeman
yep oh absolutely 100 absolutely love this guy
yeah i swear there was another movie i had seen
him in and i absolutely love him in and i Can't
find, I'm looking right at this. Like, I know
I'm legally blind here, folks, but come on. No,
I guess not. I don't know. But, uh, but yeah.
Uh, but, uh, but yeah. And I mean, like, I don't
think we really need to go down. Samuel Jackson's
filmography, but I will look at it just because
just to cover our bases here. But I mean, like,
I mean, I can probably read it off just, you
know, Mace Windu, um, the guy from the, um, who
was it? It was, um, Oh, um, unbroken. Or is it
Unbroken? Unbreakable. That's Elijah Price, Mr.
Glass. He was John Shaft in the 2000 version
of that. But, I mean, Samuel L. Jackson is Samuel
L. Jackson. Pulp Fiction was in 94. You know,
but I forgot he was in Jurassic Park. My buddy
Dave Draper and I covered Jurassic Park a while
ago here on the podcast. Isn't that where he
got his start? No, he got his start on something
called Together for Days in 72. That was his
debut, where he got probably the biggest guest.
Well, I don't know. This is up for debate, folks,
but 1990, he was Stax Edwards in Goodfellas,
so that would probably be the biggest debut for
him. but he had stuff before that. But going
forward after that, The Return of Superfly, Strictly
Business, Jungle Fever, Patriot Games in 92,
Menace to Society in 93, he was in Loaded Weapon
1. We should cover that. Have you ever seen Loaded
Weapon 1? It's been a long time, and I don't
remember enough about it, but I love the National
Lampoon films. Yeah, yeah. It's an American parody
film directed and co -written by Gene Quintano
and starring Emilio Estevez, Samuel Jackson,
Kathy Ireland. It's basically a spoof. But after
Jurassic Park was Pulp Fiction, and then I had
seen him after that, obviously here in With a
Vengeance. After With a Vengeance, I had seen
him in a movie I will be covering next year.
I don't know who with, because I don't know who
else is a fan of this movie besides me. 1996
is The Long Kiss Goodnight. It's an American
action thriller film. It's another Rennie Harlan
film. So Rennie directed... Die Hard 2. It's
with him and Geena Davis and a bunch of other
people. In 97, he was in Jackie Brown. He was
in Out of Sight with Clooney in 98. Obviously,
like I mentioned, Mace Windu in 99 in Star Wars
Episode I. He was in the XXX movies with Diesel
and all that. He was in SWAT from 2003, but I
mean, Samuel Jackson is, and that dude, that
dude is the most generous, awesome dude ever.
Any interview, any, anything you ever see him
do, you hear him talk about the philanthropy
that he and his wife do. Oh my God. That dude
gives away more money than, than anyone ever
has in Hollywood ever. What else I got on here?
Many awards, obviously, big box office, you know
all about that. Here's what you don't know. These
are, and there's a few of them, the organizations
that Samuel L. Jackson and his wife, LaTanya
Jackson, give to. Alzheimer's Association, American
Institute for Stuttering, American Red Cross,
Artists for New South Africa, Bedford -Stuyvesant
Restoration Corporation, Black Economic Alliance,
The Brain Trust. Cedar Sinai, Broadway Cares,
Equity Fights AIDS, Carousel of Hope, Children's
Defense Fund, Desmond and somebody, Tutu, Legacy
Foundation, Earth Island Foundation, the Hollyrod
Foundation for Autism and Parkinson's Disease,
In a Perfect World Foundation, the Joseph Lowry
Institute for Social Change, Magic Johnson Foundation.
Spelman College, Morehouse College, NAACP, Legal
Defense Fund, National Action Network, Kidney
Foundation, Solutions Coalition, the Smithsonian
National Museum of African American History,
Spelman College, United Negro College Fund, and
the Urban League. Denzel. There's a clip out
there somewhere on Instagram or YouTube or something
where Denzel Washington was given an award to
Samuel L. Jackson. And Denzel was just listing
the things that Sam and his wife give money away
to for charities. Oh, my God. Just so amazing.
Obviously, I've had enough of these monkey snakes
on this Monday to Friday plane. He was in Jumper.
And then in 2008, you know, Mr. Stark. He became
Nick Fury in Iron Man, and he would go on to
be Nick Fury throughout the rest of the Marvel
Cinematic Universe. So just absolutely love Samuel
L. Jackson. And like you said, the two of them
playing off of each other in this Die Hard with
a Vengeance, again, could not be made today.
Oh, heck no. But it was, it was great. Like,
yeah, no, it was awesome. It was fun. It was,
yeah. And that's why out of, I genuinely liked
those two anyway. And so like having them together,
like it's just, and they act again together,
uh, later on in a couple of other movies, uh,
unbreakable, I think is the one that the biggest
one. Cause I think Bruce plays the, yeah. Cause
like I mentioned, uh, Sam plays Mr. Glass. And
Bruce plays the other guy. I forget what the
other guy's name is. I saw, like, the first 30
minutes of Unbreakable, and at the time when
I saw it, I wasn't in the... This was years and
years and years. This was, like, when it first
came out. I wasn't really into it at the time.
So, you know, whatever. But I guess I'll have
to go back and give it another chance at some
point. But, yeah, he plays David Dunn, Bruce's
character in Unbreakable. I think they both were
in Unbreakable, too, weren't they? Probably.
Split, I think, is the sequel's name. Well, the
movie, I think Split was the second film, and
then Glass was the third. Right, yeah. And I
think he came back for Glass. Although, I don't
know. A ton of it. I don't think I've seen the
second or the third. I may have seen the third.
David makes a cameo appearance in the 2016 split
where he visits a cafe. And 16 years later, David
has become a superhero vigilante named the Overseer
in Glass. This is just me. Quickly scanning Wikipedia
over the appearances of David Dunn. I don't know
if it's Bruce Willis or not in those films, because
I'm just looking at the David Dunn character
page. So I don't know if Bruce is in all three.
What was your favorite scene in With a Vengeance?
Well, aside from the water, where they're at
the water fountain, having to figure out the
amount of water. Yes. Yeah. And then they were
just making it way too complicated. Yeah. Yeah,
that was hilarious. I mean, you get that, and
then you get them going through the tunnel, and
yeah. Yeah, that was hilarious. Yeah, Bruce Willis
is in Glass. Yep. I mean, he's on the cover.
Okay. Oh, it was in 2019. Okay. Yeah. Yeah, he's
in both. Yeah. oh i didn't know mcavoy was in
that okay yeah he played the crazy guy with 24
personalities oh boy i i don't know if i can
watch like like i said i think i originally back
in 2000 when unbreakable came out i think i made
it 30 minutes into that film and it was a little
too i was 20 years old at the time i was it was
a little too unhinged for me at that time in
2000 So I don't know if I would actually be able
to make it through a triple feature of unbreakable
splits glass. So, I don't know. It's something
I'll have to think about in the future. But yeah,
Die Hard with a Vengeance. It's, like I said,
up to now. Look, folks, you've already heard
our first two Die Hard episodes. And I stand
by what I said in both of those, and I stand
by what I say in this one as well. But I'm going
to say this. After watching 3 and 4, as standalone
story movies featuring John McClane, I like 2,
3, and 4 better than I like the first one. I
like the first one for what it is. I think the
first one grounds it, though. Yeah, no, it does.
It absolutely does, 100%. And I said this in
the first episode, and I said it in the second
episode, and I'll say it here. If there was only
one Die Hard, and they never made anything else,
even if we didn't get the awesome film that we
have here with With a Vengeance, which would
be a crime if we didn't get this. But if we never
got this and we only had one Die Hard and it
was a single story and they never did anymore,
it would be an even better classic film than
what it already is. But because it is so self
-contained and we only see that character. have
to act in that confined space and we don't get
to see him breathe I'm not saying they're choking
the character I'm just saying we don't get to
see his full potential as a New York City police
officer or an LA police officer yes I know technically
he was a New York police officer the first one
what I'm enjoying more out of seeing John McClane
as a character and seeing Bruce Willis act as
the character is getting to see him out in the
world as the cop that he is. When we get to the
next episode, he even says, I do this because
he says something effective. I do this because
it's who I am. It's something to that effect.
He says it to Farrell. He says it to... To Mr.
Macintosh over there. And I'm going to say that
joke. Be prepared, dude. I'm going to make that
joke every 10 minutes in that episode. Because
Justin Long. Hi, I'm a PC. And I'm a Mac. Because
that's all he was before Die Hard 4. The main
movie I liked him in was Accepted. I don't even
think I've seen that. It's a comedy movie, but
he creates a college because he didn't get in
it called South Harmon Institute of Technology.
Oh, my God. Spell the acronym. Yeah, I got it.
Oh, God. It's funny, though. It's a funny film.
Yeah. And then. Yeah, they have a comedian like
a guy that's kind of a washed up. person taken
over is like the dean of the fake school so uh
but yeah anyways this i i i prefer like i do
like this film overall better than the other
two so i do see where you're coming from with
that um i i do enjoy the first film from a realism
standpoint yep Uh, however, like the second film
in the first film, I kind of have to be in that,
that mood to watch it. Like the first film is
good for what it is. This one is more, more fun
in a lot of ways. Like as odd as that is with
all the explosions and all the things going on.
I mean, it's serious and it's grounded, but it's
also like, I don't know, more entertaining from
a, just a shut your brain off where you watch
ability. Uh, and then I feel like the fourth
one's kind of tied with the second in a lot of
ways. Yeah. But so with a vengeance, I can, like
I mentioned with the first two films, I, they
are not like they're rewatchable when I have,
not when I have to rewatch them, but like, say
somebody is like, Hey, we're doing a diehard
blah, blah, blah. Would you like to blah, blah,
blah? I'm like, yeah, sure. I'll watch the movie
and whatever. Yada, yada, yada. Anyone's asking
me to be on a diehard podcast anytime soon, which
is fine, whatever. But like, like I mentioned
in the other episodes, I don't rewatch those
to rewatch the movies. This, and I don't even
rewatch, I don't even put them on for background
noise. This movie, I'll put this movie on for
background. because this movie has a better soundtrack
and it has a better sound for background to me
than the previous two do. This movie starts out
with Love and Spoonful's Summer in the City.
Like, you can't not start your movie with that
and think, oh, this is going to be a party pooper
movie. This is going to be whatever. I think,
what does it got? The Saints go marching in when
they're doing all the load up for the gold and
whatever at one point. So yeah, this to me has
a better sound. Will I eventually use this as
background noise? Most likely, probably not.
But when I was watching this movie today, I was
like, huh, okay, I can get... With this movie,
I can, you know, this would probably be something
if I really was in the mood to have this on as
background. It probably isn't going to be that,
but it could be. It's in the running, whereas
the other two aren't. But yeah, no, absolutely.
I really enjoyed this rewatch. Every time I do
rewatch this movie, I really do enjoy it. And
like we said, the chemistry between... Bruce
and Samuel L. Jackson. Bruce Willis and Samuel
L. Jackson is just... Zeus and McClane, man,
just... It's just so good. I almost wish they
would have gotten another outing. That should
have been Die Hard 5. Yeah. Yeah. There's so
many things I would have wished for at the end
of this movie and at the end of the next one.
And none of what I would have wished for would
have ended up being whatever the hell we actually
got in 2013. Agreed. So, yeah. All right. Did
the film keep your interest throughout? Yeah.
Yeah, totally. Are we itching to watch the next
film now? Yeah. Yeah, I like the next movie.
I like the next one, too. Yeah, yeah. Would you
recommend this film to people? Hell yeah. Yes.
Yeah. Zero to five with half points. What are
you going to give with a vengeance? He's fighting
his urge, folks, because Steve never gives fives.
It's a five. I'll probably give it a five because
of those two. Yeah, it's a five. And it's got
German irons. Yeah, you can't not give it a five.
I really like those three. Yeah. Even the small,
like, I was dreading. The one thing I was dreading
because of how I know the man is today, the one
thing I was dreading was the, I don't know. That's
the next movie. Yeah, no, there's nothing in
here. There's nothing in here. And they even
make it better. The back and forth between the
two of them about all the racial stuff, they
talk it out, make it a conversation, and they
don't just judge each other. They don't just
go off on each other. They don't just say, blah,
blah, blah, fuck you and walk away. yada yada
yada yada yada blah blah blah blah blah and whatever
whatever they actually sit there and and it's
so good so yeah fives all around we're gonna
go to a quick ad break we're gonna come back
to close the show right after this this gentleman

The Once Upon a Geek Podcast, part of the Fire
& Water Podcast Network. Hi there, Boss fans.
My name is Jesse Jackson, and I'm the host of
Set Lusting Bruce, a Bruce Springsteen fan podcast.
For the past decade, my guests and I have shared
heartfelt conversations, unforgettable fan stories,
and deep dives into the lyrics that have shaped
our lives. From the passionate debates over sways
and waves. Deciding on if Mary gets in the car
or not. To deep dives from greetings to letter
to you. We've covered it all because Springsteen
isn't just music. He is a great companion on
this part of the ride. So grab your suitcase
and your ticket. Put on your favorite Springsteen
t -shirt. And join me for our 10th anniversary
year, set listing Bruce, 10 years strong and
still making our way to the land of hope and
dreams. On the Simplistic Reviews podcast, we
talk movies. We talk TV. We talk. Hello, Julie,
what the heck are you doing? Trying to make our
spot sound more exciting by adding explosions.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure you could have got the
point across with sound effects, not the real
thing. Car, car. Download the show on iTunes
or at simplisticreviews .blogspot .com. I'm sure
your insurance company will cover that. No, they
won't. No, they probably won't. We are back here
inside Studio 2009, only on the Geekcast Radio
Network. We have died hard with a vengeance.
That's right, folks. All right. Episode 143 in
the books. We are almost done with the Christmas
in July. cast radio network any final thoughts
about with a vengeance sir any other things you'd
like to say any promotions you want to do any
anything no usually he talks so i can take a
drink but apparently not well i can i can mention
that you know i do have a podcasting book coming
out yeah that's what i was hoping you were going
to mention mr altered audio i'm going to alter
your audio Yeah, so I mean, I have that coming
out next month, actually. What date? Where can
people get it? How much is it going to cost?
Like, give us the... I like to be a problem.
You've been doing this for 20 fucking years.
I really have to explain. I have to explain this
shit to you? No, I just, I like to be a problem.
Specifically for you. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, it's
coming out on August 8th. And it's going to be
on Amazon, on Kindle, on Barnes & Noble. And
I'm working on getting it into distribution platforms
so that it can get into libraries or actually
physical bookstores for order. And the book will
be $15 .99 for the physical edition and $9 .99
for the digital. So here's the actual good, interesting
question. When is the audio version coming? Yeah,
you know, you're the second person that said
that to me in the last week. I mean, if we could
get that shit on Audible, you'd make tons of
bank right there. Actually, you need to contact
Audible to make it an Audible original. That
would be fucking amazing for you. I probably
could do it now. I actually thought about that
earlier because somebody was like, hey, when
are you going to do blah, blah, blah? And it
was like in a forum. And then I had somebody
physically ask me. Yep, you should do it. Actually,
you make number three. I triple dog dare you.
You can't undo a triple dog dare. You got to
do it. I can. You got to do it. No, you can't.
You can't undo a triple dog dare. Once you stick
your tongue to that pole, it's stuck. Anyway.
