John McClane kicks Ass

According to hope, the band did the filk song and vid for the first three movies, but was asked to pull it by FOX. Only when they had DH4 in the can, FOX then asked to write another verse for that movie, and released it as part of their viral marketing campaign. This version went up in early 2007, and is also on the DH4 DVD.

Fascinating, eh? And a heck of a lot of fun.

it's the yippee-ki-yays that get me. dammit, john mcclane, why do you have to kick so much ass?

you are very mean. i've never seen these movies and still don't want to, but the vid was obviously done with a skilled fan-sensibility and is quite likeable, and the final chorus is now stuck on repeat in my brain!
