I'll be interested to see the last one! Although it, er, does not appear to have been well reviewed.

I definitely prefer quipping-to-cover-up, scared mess McClane to quippy, confident action hero McClane.

Yes! I understand that a character can only go 'what the fuck is this situation and how can I handle it' so many times before they start going 'okay, I've been in this situation before and I know what to do', but scared mess McClane is so much more fun.
