This was the FBI's revenge for getting blown up in Die Hard.

I'm surprised Cnn would cover something like this, nice reporting Bill.

It’s also a war on cash.

FBI or cops ask you a question, no matter how seemingly innocuous , invoke your 5th amendment right to stay silent.

Thank you so much for posting this! The last thing they want in the prison system is for rich well-educated people to come in there and start telling the truth about the prison system.

Think of how good the following franchises would be if had stayed in control of them, Die Hard, Jack Ryan, Predator

andi toja kinda like if James Cameron had stayed with Terminator and Aliens. McTiernan made Hunt For Red October but the next few Jack Ryan films were quite good Clear and Present Danger and Patriot Games. Sum of All Fears was good too.

At his age with his intellect it is frightening that these ideas had never occurred to him. The power of propaganda.

Well, atleast he's slowly getting back to directing. I mean he's making short films for Ubisoft but it's a start.

Excellent filmmaker who got caught up in the system. He probably should have gotten probation, but I admit I don't know all the facts of his case. I remember reading about Pellicano and when Mctiernan's name came up his it just always felt to me. Hope he gets back to work because he knows how to make quality films. What he's gone through will embitter mostly everyone. Hope he can manage those feelings and stay positive going forward.

We need many more people with monetary clout and a big audience to wake up and get angry. I never understood the war on drugs. Why not a war on pedophiles? Or a war on poverty? A war against starvation? A war against corporate greed? Fuck, we are all ruled by a fleet do assholes.

I never was aware of his name just the films. I was driven to him by a tweet that included him on a list of directors that made at least three classic hit films. Stunned to hear his revelation about mass incarceration and racism, the new Jim Crow, a “giant deregistration machine”

I want this Predator director John Mctiernan back to direct Predator prequel movies starting with skulls just like Ridley Scott did with the Alien prequel movies and he will continue.
