Merrick here...
Hoping this update actually make sit onto the site. I'm afraid my ever-faithful, much-cherished Mac is approaching Last Day...not much seems to be working correctly anymore...not much at all...and there is great sadness.
An AICN reader called Battletide sent in this quick note, presented below in its entirety...
I was just listening to my fave sports show, The Jim Rome Show, and b/c of Rome's love for all things John McClane, Tom Rothman of FOX Entertainment came on his show to announce the title and set-up for Die Hard 5. It will be titled A Good Day To Die Hard and it will involve John heading to Russia to sweet talk some cops into letting his apparently-wayward son out of jail for something he did....but when he gets there, as you can imagine....things surrounding his son's arrest are not as they appear and world-threatening terrorist hijinks ensue. The role for John McClane, Jr. will be highly coveted in the next couple of months. It goes before cameras in January, and they are going to release it on February 14th just in time to buy the lady some roses and chocolate and then take her to see some terrorists get their asses handed to them McClane style!!!!
I'm assuming Battletide means filming begins in January 2012 for a February 2013 release...
