Bruce Willis Shits On Die Hard Fan Pitch

Recently a Die Hard uber fan decided to take out a full page ad in The Hollwood Reporter, pitching his idea for a Die Hard sequel.  It had John McClane being locked down in the joint while Islamic extremists got up to some nasty shit at the scene.  The ad must have cost thousands of dollars.

This weekend a representative from THR asked Willis if he was aware of the pitch. He wasn’t, but that didn’t stop the rep from outlining the plot for Willis anyway. Willis made the dynamic following statement: “It seems far away right now… I don’t know.”  Translation: No way in hell, pal.

But really, is it worse than a man in a truck trailer destroying the United States, then being stopped by a middle aged cop with some nerdlinger in tow?  Or what about a middle aged cop from New York launching Operation Barbarossa V 2.0 and laying waste to half of Moscow?  I hate to be a cynic, but short of Renny Harlin pulling a Neill Blomkamp, this franchise is bagged and tagged.
