How To Remake Die Hard

lena dunham die hardI ended up in this gchat yesterday and just thought this was the best idea ever.

Not as good as my idea for a restaurant called Bucket – you just order a small, medium, or large bucket of food and get whatever they bring you – but still pretty good.

me: they should do a shot-for-shot remake of die hard but reverse the sex of all the characters

her: everyone would say none of it rang true
her: because the original is so believable/true to life lol
her: and the director wouldn’t be able to resist dumb cat fight scenes either

me: it would be interesting as an expensive experiment

her: it’d end up terrible because no one understands #girls

me: what if lena dunham played bruce willis and marnie was hans gruber

If they did a big-budget version of this, I’d definitely see it.

In any case, my Guys Who Watch Girls podcast with @robertcarroll doesn’t happen anymore, since we collectively decided we didn’t want to watch Girls anymore. I’ve continued to watch it anyway.

Would you see my Die Hard remake.
