The first entry in the series to go ‘orange-and-teal’ in its visual palette feels a little off from the Die Hard universe, but this trailer is cut with a fair bit of editing flourish, and anyone directing a Die Hard sequel should be able to leap over the low-bar set by Len-Fucking-Wiseman.
And while I do like stuff blowing up real good, and Willis pleasantly smirking for the camera, with that title, they might have riffed on this wonderful goofery from Starship Troopers: Marauder
Gotta say, despite my reservations, looks pretty fun. Love the musical snippets of Beethoven calling back to part 1.
Yea, I liked the use of the symphony, because that is a really good scene in the original film, particularly the way Alan Rickman ends the sequence by saying “MERRY CHRISTMAS” in that breathless way of his.
Meh.
