They probably figured that everyone has already forgotten about Olympus Has Fallen. Hell, I actually liked OHF and even I forgot about it.

They should just re-title it "Olympus Has Fallen 2: Ghosts of London".

There, that was easy.

Oh yeah. Totally forgot there are 5 Die Hards. We'll say Olympus was 6 and London was 7. White House Down was just a Billy Baldwin wannabe Die Hard.

I would very much like to pretend A Good Day to Die Hard doesn't exist. I wish I could get the unrated cut of 4 without getting the whole boxed set from Australia though. Or maybe I'll just use Vudu.

Just as long as we aren't counting Waterworld as a Mad Max movie .

But that's essentially what it was. Mad Max: Sea World.

Looking forward to more adventures with Mike Banning.

Loved the 1st movie.

But, bummer I just read the movie was pushed back to January 22, 2016. I was looking forward to seeing it in October because it was opening 3 days prior to my birthday. That sucks.

A January opening? Plus I'll bet Star Wars will still have momentum a month after opening. R.I.P. this movie.

Good teaser, but sorely lacking on badass Butler action.

Still sucks this got pushed back 3 months.

Ask Jack Bauer that question

It's terrorists blowing shit and killing folks in London after the Prime Minister dies. The POTUS and Butler's character are there for his funeral.

I can buy into stuff happening to Jack Bauer over and over again, but six terror plots focused on LA ?

The first is a real guilty pleasure for me so I'm definitely looking forward to round 2.
