I think "Live free or die hard", whilst cheesy and silly, suits the apparent film much, much better than the pointless nonentity that is "die hard four point zero".

/2p

it also kinda works with the other numberless names:
die hard
die harder
die hard with a vengeance

(although my office is in some contention as to whether the second film was in fact "die hard 2: die harder" or just "die harder")

# It's a software version number reference innit?
The plot's all about 1337 haxors or summat and the producers think they're being clever by using a software type version for the film's title.

A bit like Se7en.
