What did I learn from Die Hard in a Lamas movie?

I learned that there are no bad Lorenzo Lamas movies to riff. At least that I have seen so far.
I learned that movies and TV shows of this era were groanable with stereotypes.
I learned that Clark Kent glasses are still the number 1 disguise in any movie
I learned that as I get older that when a cop or good guys gets mowed down that there is a moment where I contemplate how their parents feel about all the time raising them and how it wasted
I learned that if you want to be conspicious as a bounty hunter its best to drive a bright frikken white Porsche!
Did anyone else think this felt like a pilot? I should go read the IMDB
Did anyone else feel like a Hilander movie was going to break out at any time? It was probably just me.
Oh was it odd that the cops were hiding someone in a construction office park with paper thin walls
Do all tracking devices have bright blinking lights? Must make it hell for the FBI and CIA
Shame for our lady killer that her unlimited ammo code to run out at just the wrong moment.
Fodder's just this guy, you know.

Actually it looks like she suffered from a stove pipe jam. That is the casing from her final shot failed to eject properly and got caught in the port, preventing the slide from going back and the next bullet cycling in. Yes this absolutely does happen with automatics. I had it happen during a firearms qualification, but I cleared it properly in time and got an 'attaboy' from the instructor since many of us were being tested at the time and it was an opportune moment to show the issue that can happen with an automatic and to not freeze up when it happens. Either the on set armorer or the writer probably has some familiarity with firearms since its rare a layman would know about the issue and include it.
