Class of 75 Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 Yes. Of interest the part of John McLane was originally offered to Frank Sinatra as he had played the same part in a couple of films in the 60s. Contractually he had to be offered part before Willis but obviously refused due to age. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Costanza Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 Die Hard is a superior action film, one of the very best in fact. A good day to die hard however is one of the worst films I've ever seen. Lost count of how many innocent civilians Bruce Willis would have killed and the setpiece with a fight in Chernobyl FFS.

Angry Haggis Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 For me, yes it is. And as it’s bad it’s also very enjoyable 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

westbow Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 On 20/12/2023 at 15:54, Carl Fredrickson said: Die Hard is most definitely a Christmas movie. As much or more so than pish like The Holiday, Four Christmases and Love actually. We watch Die Hard & DH2 in the build up to Christmas every year. Also on the list is the Muppets Christmas Carol, Elf, The Grinch Who Stole Christmas, The Lampoons Christmas Vacation, Deck the Halls and Its A Wonderful Life. Added to the list this year is Violent Night. All good choices. Home alone 1 & 2? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
