Didn't see any of the Die Hard movies, and I wanted to see this one. Will give that one a rent.
What no 2 disc?

As the press release states, there is no unrated version available... yet.

I've actually just amended that because of a graphic on the Fox Home website!
Somehow this movie was incredibly entertaining. It's possibly the zany duel between a semi and a jet that gets me going, or perhaps the car versus helicopter showdown. Over the top and loving it!
I was so skeptical when I first heard they were making a Die Hard 4. The first is supreme, and this one comes damn close.
I never had a more exciting time at the theater. Way better than the second, slightly better than the third, and almost as good, if not on par with the first.
Definitely sold here. And after seeing Timothy Olyphant in this, I really can't wait for Hitman.

You owe it to yourself to at least check out the first. The second is almost a re-hash of that one with a different setting. If you like them both, check out the third, and then see this. It's a great series.

U GOTA BE KIDING ME (sorry for the caps)

I liked this as much as the first one; it was awesome. Hopefully the Unrated cut adds some of the swearing back in, and doesn't cut the "Yippee ki-yay" line with a gunshot like in the theatrical release. Even if not, I'm still picking this up.
I hope the "and more" includes the Kevin Smith & Bruce Willis chat on Live Free or Die Hard,as I also hope there will be a special Kevin Smith Commentary on LFODH.
That DVD stinks of a non-American 2 disc release, commentaries and a bit more please. This is Fox too who like to pull that one.
Europe will get a 2 Disc SE for sure.
As for the film it was good but the first film is the only great one, part 2 is decent too. Part 3 was pretty boring and Part 4 enjoyable but really stupid.
p.s - The American title for DH4 is so stupid. Thankfully it wasn't used elsewhere.

Terrible film...neutered the character of McClane and had some of the most ridiculous and absurd action scenes I have ever seen.
Watchable I guess but easily the worst in the Die Hard series.
ummm... why make a trilogy collection when there's now 4 movies? talk about retarded marketing..lol
WOW! I got my wish! Blu Ray Release, when they were releasing these on just DVD's (AGAIN) I said I hoped these come out on Blu Ray. Fox was listening, finally wow DIE HARD HIGH DEF ROCKS!!

I agree with this whole heartedly.
Its not Die Hard without some gun fights, it was a computer hacker movie, and the bad guy was the worst of the series. But, the plane versus the semi-truck scene was AWESOME!

I'm gonna wait it out for the unrated version.
Cool stuff. The whole DH series on blu-ray will set a very high standard on Fox.
I liked this movie but I won't buy the dvd. Because I'm 100 % sure that in 2008, Fox will release all the four Die Hard movie with a bonus disc each. An huge tetralogy containing 8 discs. So people, don't buy this on November 20. Just be a little patient and buy the 8 disc boxset. Knowing Fox's strategy, you know that it is coming in 2008.
I enjoyed it more than the other sequels.Yippee Yay Ki Yay Mothertrucker
Outside of the Bourne Ultimatum, this was easily the best sequel of the summer. Everything in the film worked. From the action to the humor. My only real complaint, was that Cyril Raffaelli should've had more screen time.
Anybody notice the UNRATED banner on the cover art above for DIE HARD 4?
I loved this movie! It was nonstop action and entertainment from start to finish. But that artwork is terrible, however, I'm sure it isn't final.
Ugh, single disc? Goddamn, I smell a double dip.
for those of us who bought the trilogy box from a few years ago, i cant see any future collection giving more to the first three movies as far as extras go.....that "five star" collection was pretty damn packed. let's hope when the inevitable 4 movie super duper collection comes, they'll port over all those extras for those who never bought it originally.
I think the original DVD artwork for Die Hard 1,2,3 on the original DVD's would blend in better with the Blu-Ray Disc artwork for Live Free Or Die Hard. I believe this means new video transfers are on the way for Standard Defintion of the first 3 films.

I hope they use the original DVD artwork for all 3 Blu-Ray films. Leave that eye candy artwork on the DVD's. The original DVD's had very nice covers.

I would bet a new boxset for DVD with new improved video is on the way!

Next year all the movies will be in yet another box set. For that, I shall wait. Plus, I want the R rated version where he completes Yippe Kay A Motherfuc*er.
Question...on the recent re-release of the Trilogy, are they new transfers, or just re-issues of the Ultimate Collection transfers?
I hope an 8 disc Collection Set is release very soon.
