Live Free or Die Hard John McClane is back! And I couldn't be happier. Of all the tough guys out there — Steve McQueen, Sean Connery, John Wayne, Arnold Schwarzenneger, Sly Stallone, or even Hugh Jackman — Bruce Willis is the one tough guy that makes the rest of us regular guys feel like we could be like him. He's so easy to identify with in the Die Hard series because he always seems like a regular guy caught up in some real serious shit.

This time around, a little less so with McClane acting a little too comfortable with all of the danger he's dealing with. But I guess that's realistic too. If we'd gone through what he's gone through, a terrorist attack might seem normal to us also.

Besides, comfortable or not, McClane has always been cavalier in the face of his own destruction. It's his swagger and his upbeat quips that we all hope to be able to have for ourselves when we find ourselves in a jam.

The movie is flippin' sweet, by the way. It is on par with the first one and definitely has more action jammed into it than the first two combined. The Apple kid is great. The villains are great. It's all good, my friend. But then, you've probably already seen it by now, haven't you?

The same night I saw the movie, I arrived home and watched a little Ben Stiller Show archived on AOL's video site. In the episode with Flea, Stiller does a spoof trailer for Die Hard 12: Die Hungry, that totally cracked me up.

And then two days later, a friend forwarded to me this video on YouTube of the Die Hard Music Video, which just reminds of why I like John McClane so much. Check it out -- but beware. The tune will be stuck in your head for days. You're gonna love it so much, you'll want to learn the lyrics. So here you go:

Remember when we first met John McClane?
Argyle picked him up from the plane,
And took him down to Nakatomi Tower...
To meet with Holly.

He came to get her back and to be her man,
But Hans and his buddies fucked up the plan,
And that's about when everything went sour
At the Christmas party.

And the terrorists were over-zealous,
But it was sweet when they killed Ellis!
And, with a little help from Allen,
John McClane kicked ass!

We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die as hard as we can!

No one dies harder than John McClane,
Even when his wife's stuck on a plane
About to crash into the Potomac River...
On the eve of Christmas.

And airport security kicked him out,
But John McClane is just too damn proud,
And nothing could have made him not deliver...
'Cause that's his business!

And with a lot of fights and gunplay
He blew that plane up on the runway.
And, with a little help from Allen,
Holly's plane could land!

We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die as hard as we can!

Yippee-ki-yay, motherfucker!

No one dies harder than John McClane,
Saving all the passengers on the train.
But Simon wasn't clear with his intentions:
It was just a distraction!

And there was no way McClane could know
That Hans Gruber was Simon's bro.
And that's what made it "Die Hard: With A Vengeance"
With Samuel Jackson!

And the good cop wouldn't miss this,
Even though it wasn't Christmas.
He didn't get any help from Allen...
But only in part three!

We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die as hard as we can!

Finally we're back with John McClane
Now we got a choice, and the choice is plain:
We can live free or we can die hard,
As hard as we can.

From taking on a terrorist he's never met,
To taking on an F-35 jet,
With the greatest car explosions by far...
This sure looks sweet, man!

And we know what the basic gist is:
There ain't no Allen, and it's not Christmas.
We don't know but we're pretty sure that
John McClane kicks ass!

We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die as hard as we can!

Yippee-ki-yay, motherfucker!
