During the 1980s and ’90s, John McTiernan was the biggest director of the era. Not only did he direct everyone’s favorite Christmas movie of all time, 1988’s Die Hard, but he also made the Arnold Schwarzenegger classic Predator, the first (and best) Jack Ryan film, The Hunt for Red October, and Last Action Hero, which a lot of people hate but is a cult classic around these parts.
His career continued going strong in the nineties, with Die Hard With A Vengeance and The Thomas Crown Affair. Still, bad experiences of The 13th Warrior and Rollerball led to a cooling period. Even worse, he wound up in jail due to a long, convoluted story which we dig into here. So will McTiernan ever make a comeback? Join us on WTF Happened to John McTiernan, written by Taylor James Johnson & Brad Hamerly, and narrated, produced and edited by Taylor James Johnson.
