Olympics? Or Die Hard 5!!!

I have the opening ceremonies on in the background while working...It's all pretty cool looking, impressive scale, etc - But I can't help thinking how it's a perfect set up for a Die Hard-esque plot.

All these world leaders in one stadium, in the middle of China. Suddenly during the ceremonies, the stadium is locked down and the Chinese government is holding everyone hostage!

Their plan is to kill them all, and take over the world, sucking it dry of all it's natural resources and then blasting off to their secret Chinese Moon Base.

What they didn't account for was John McClane. Somehow back in the doghouse after saving America in Die Hard with a Vengence, John finds himself lowly noodle salesmen in rural China.

Never being able to let go of his cop roots, he senses something is a fowl and sneaks into the stadium before the hostage crisis takes place.

Now he has to save all the world leaders and take down the Chinese government with the help of his spur-of-the-moment sidekick Yao Ming.

Will he rescue the world leaders?
Will he blow up China's Moon Base?
Will he save his noodle saleman business thing?

Die Hard: Gold METAL

Next Summer.
