View Full Version : Looks like Attacking The White house is hot in Hollywood
First came Olympus has Fallen. Now there is "White House down"
What will be next?
Seems like it's in to make movies were The white House is under attack.
Haven't seen none of them yet. So I can't say if they are worth the money
I'll have to wait until they come on Blue-Ray.

From what I hear Olympus has Fallen is a steaming load of don't-watch-this.
White House Down is directed by Roland Emmerich, so it will do exactly what it says on the tin and probably quite well. Just don't go in expecting Doctor Zhivago.
Didn't Jack Bauer already put down one attack on the White House? It must be time to call him in again...
<O>

Had forgot all about our jack Bauer. However his job was made in 24 hour/episode.
In these two films the hero(es) did the job in, well I don't know how long these movies are.

I would make some crass joke, but odds are with my luck, i'd have a federal swat team in my living room shortly thereafter. :shifty:

White House Down was supposed to be a comedy movie IIRC.
Olympus Has Fallen was a very good movie I think. It was worth renting. :rock:

Don't care how many times movies whack the White House.
Give credit where credit is due.
The British did it first!

Olympus has Fallen is a steaming pile of "die hard knock off"
It is Die hard in the white house. I was waiting for Gerard to say " Yippy Ky- yay mother effer"
Soooooooooo Original.
I love Gerard Butler, it hurt me to see him in this steaming pile of hot garbage.
Haven't seen them, but "White House Down" is a pretty stupid title. :dead:
I seem to remember some one mention Olympus has fallen in an another thread. I can't remember which I do however recall his negative response about this movie.
It was something like it couldn't be done etc etc.
When you watch a movie like this one or like Battleships then just watch it as you were totally unknown to some of the facts known to you.

I started a thread killing this movie, and was kinda taken to task by the community in it.
I maintain my position, this movie is a pile of horse manure.
One jet patrolling DC, thats it? Post 9-11 Really? *spit*

Then I was right. Now I wait until some one go and watch White House down.
I guess I will see both of them when they hit the blue-ray market here in Denmark.
I will however NOT buy Olympus.... Have heard enough about the quality of the movie, action and performance in this one
Don't know about the other though

I watched my copy of it for free, it said something about for my consideration at the bottom.
Yeah thats it, I am an academy voter (err maybe someone I know). Thats my story and I am sticking to it.
Gerard rocked, the script stunk, thank goodness for Morgan Freeman,
Sounds like Bruce could be back in Die Hard White House. :hmmm:

Already done, Gerard has more hair, and not as much tabloid exposure.
Look forward to Olympus part 3, Gerard gets hair plugs.
All about his visit with Ron Howard, and his insecurity about hair loss at a young age.
Guest starring the Fonz.:D

Well I've just watched it (purely for evaluation purposes) and IMHO it doesn't even begin to compare with Olympus.

Way back when there were only two Die Hard movies, an American sitcom made a joke about Bruce's next movie: Die, Already!

Budget cuts and sequestration. Hollywood is all about fantasy.
