Welcome to The Hollywood News Cack-Handed Commentary. Every week, we provide a commentary track for a classic movie. Get your DVD (or a Blu-Ray is it? Well check out Mr Money Bags) ready and hit play in time with us. Simple. It’s like watching a film with your movie-buff mates from THN right there with you. But without the smell.
This Week: Die Hard. I shot a kid. It was dark, he had a ray-gun, looked real enough. This sort of thing happens over Christmas but the fun must end. As we enter the new year and leave the season of good will behind, it seems the perfect time to watch the greatest Christmas/not-Christmas film ever; Die Hard. Ryan is off this week so join John, Michael and Jason as they, and you, enjoy Hans Gruber and co get picked off by Mister Detective John McClane.
Listen along as the boys exchange the worst Christmas presents of all time to the sound of Brucie and Alan swapping quips and detonators. Have a happy new year and remember that the quarterback is toast.

Cack-Handed Commentary #1: Miracle On 34th Street
John is a gentleman, a scholar, he’s an acrobat. He is one half of the comedy duo Good Ol’ JR, and considers himself a comedy writer/performer. This view has been questioned by others. He graduated with First Class Honours in Media Arts/Film & TV, a fact he will remain smug about long after everyone has stopped caring. He enjoys movies, theatre, live comedy and writing with the JR member and hetero life partner Ryan. Some of their sketches can be seen on YouTube and YOU can take their total hits to way over 17!
