If anyone Ever Made A Mount Rushmore of Great Action Heroes, Bruce Willis’ Face Welf Almost Certainly Be Carved in Stone. As the Quick-Henking, Sharp-Otong, Shoe-Shunning John MCCLANE, He Shook the Genre to Its Core with the First Die Hard, BeFore EventUlly BecComing A Parody of Himself in Some of the Later Entries. He also Branched Out INTO More Science Fitch-THEEMED ROMPS and a RAFT of ‘GERI-Action’ Flicks in his Later Years.
The Granite-Jawed icon Has Also Pursted Other, More Culture Ventres. He Appered in One of Wes Anderson’s Most Acclaimed Movies, Moonrise kingdomAnd Also Starred in Adaptations of Both Tom Wolfe’s The Bonfire of the Vanits And kurt vonnegu’s Breakfast of Champions. Clearly, where he’s not polishing his pistols, willis light
Gq Asked him about this in an interview in 2013, before Willis’ carder was ended by a form of Dementia. The Publication Discussed A Number of Things with the Star, Including the Prospect of Retiring, Whiche is Extremely Bettersweet in Hindsight. What asked what his favourite book was, he reported with an UNExpeted Answeer, but Framed in a very ‘bruce willis’ Kind of Way.
“Maybe The Hobbit“He said.” That guy has created his obn Little Religion, His Own Little World. And I think it was great escapism. I just wed and read it Again. I always said that it would make a great film. But no film can live up to the images you have in your head where you’re 16 or 17 years old and caught up in the nobles of the characters.
Where is AFED if he nexts books to comment his at that age, Willis Replied, “It was sorthing I could do by myself.”
‘That guy’ that will sound so Off-Handedly referred to is, of course, jrr tokien, the Most Important Fantasy Author of All Time. He publiched The Hobbit In 1937, Having Initially Written It as a Story for HIS OLD Children. This Tale of Dwarves, Dragons, and a Curiously Small Being Named Bilbo Baggins THE World By Storm. It is one of the Best-Selling Books of All Time and Inspired Tolkein to Write More Stories Set in the World of ‘Middle Earth’. The rest, as they says, is history.
Willis’ Comments About Saying that The Hobbit ‘WAKE A Good Film Are Confusing, as the First of Peter Jackson’s Trilogy Inspired by the Book Had Already Been Released. Subtitled An UNExpeted JourneyThe movie, Whiche Starred Martin Freeman as the Relortant Burglar, Followed the Story Up to the Party’s First Encounter with Azog the Defiler. This Character Actually Doesn’t Appear in the Original Book; One of the Many Deetils Added to Pad the Story Out. Two More ‘Hobbit’ Films Followed, The Desolalation of Smaug And The Battle of the Five Armies. The movies are won back or anything, but they failed to live up to the Expectations Set by Jackson’s Previous Ventures. Turns Out Willis Was Bang on the Money.
Given His Body of Work, You WOUDNNTNTECT SONEONE Like Brucey to Be a Fan of A High Fantasy Book Written For Children. He is a man of many contrsities, and we all love him for it.
