Die Hard - What's the Difference?

As Christmas approaches, why not celebrate one of the best holiday films ever? Ok, so Die Hard isn't your traditional Christmas family movie but bet you didn't know it was based on the book, "Nothing Lasts Forever" by Roderick Thorp. Here are the top differences between the novel and film.

Read the book Honestly if this was a movie, I'm sure the ending will haunt you, great plot twist and ending straight up sad

[@shamusbob7969]

The book, though I never read it, being a big Die Hard fan, sounds like an extremely dark character study on a very angry man, and it sounds absolutely insane and like it would make a great movie in itself. The way it ends and how unlike McClane, Leland is the one who gets a lot of people killed, including his own daughter by getting involved.

[@shamusbob7969]

In order Die hard 2 based off the novel 58 minutes Die Hard with a Vengence based off a screen play for a Brandon lee movie called Simon Says which got shuffled around until Fox got the script and made it Die Hard 3 ....as DH3 came out in 95 (2 years after Lee's passing) yeah... you can see what happened there. Live Free or Die Hard was based on the article "A Farewell to Arms" in Wired (you can find it easily enough)which outlined how the increasingly cybernetic world could be turned around on the people.

There are those who say Die Hard is a Christmas Movie, and there are those who are wrong.

[@connornyhan]

It's still a Christmas movie.

[@connornyhan]

milster It's about as much of a Christmas movie as Home Alone. Both main characters are only in this situation due to it being Christmas, although Kevin McCallister is more of a psychopath (or sociopath) surviving a dangerous situation by beating the crap out of two low level burglars, whereas McClane is a father trying to not only survive in a deadly situation but save the lives of many others too. In my opinion Die Hard has more of the Christmas Spirit than Home Alone (which I do love btw).

[@connornyhan]

Technically A Christmas Carol could have taken place at Thanksgiving, or New Years. In fact most Christmas movies could take place at any time of the year. But in order for that to happen there sripts would need modification, and Die Hard would need to be modified too. It's a Christmas movie, and a damn good one. Stop trying to refuse it is.

[@connornyhan]

milster totally irrelevant. It's not like the only reason he was there was because he was visiting his family since it was Christmas. Oh wait. That's exactly why he was there.

[@connornyhan]

milster I would argue any Christmas movie could take place at any other time of the year, with the exception of A Christmas Story or one or two others. But A Christmas Carol, easily could take place on Thanksgiving or New Years. Home Alone could also take place at any time in the year. It's A Wonderful Life, which is a considered a Christmas Classic could also take place at any other time of the year, and I don't even consider it Christmas movie as is. Yeah that's right. Die Hard is more of a Christmas movie than It's A Wonderful Life. The main trait of a Christmas movie is that it takes place at Christmas time, and Christmas is more relevant to the story of Die Hard, than It's A Wonderful Life.

[@johnwatson3948]

In 1986 a friend of mine was living in an apartment building near LA and would hang out with an old guy across the hall who had once been a successful writer - the writers name was Rod Thorp who said he had just sold his book about “terrorists taking over a building” to Fox and that they were making a movie based on it. My friend later directed a movie of his own and put Rod in as an extra.

[@leecarroll4674]

I love the movie and its been a while since I read the book but i'm sure a major difference is the extended relationship between Mclane and the air hostess on the flight at the beginning of the film. In the movie she shares a flirtatious look with John but I'm sure she is a much more prominent love interest in the book, and there are a few times when Leland is really struggling with his situation and he's thinking about getting through it so he can see her (the air hostess)?

[@deathsythelui]

I've never read the book, but I've always heard it analyzed as "McClane" (forgot the actual character's name, and I'm too lazy to find it), being an older, grizzled, more conservative police detective getting himself involved in the terrorist shenanigans just made things worse. That fact thematically ties into the whole reason for the visit to his daughter in the first place, which is to confront her on her professional and personal ethics as he sees it from afar. But, it's his old fashioned good guy vs. bad guy mentality that starts all the shooting and bloodshed that ultimately ends with his daughter being killed. If he had just kept his nose down and stayed out of the way, rather than trying to force his way into controlling the situation, the whole terrorist event would've probably gone down much better, and not killed his only family in the process. That's just what I've heard anyway...

[@agochoa]

So in the end, Carl is shot by Carl. Nice.

[@ih8kit]

There are a few errors at the end of this video. In "Nothing Lasts Forever" Karl does come out of nowhere and starts shooting. Karl does kill a number of people before he is shot killed by Sgt. Al Powell (Two shots to the head.) as the video states. However Captain Robinson did not voluntarily jump in front of Joe Leland and take a bullet for him. Sgt. Powell actually grabs Robinson and pulls him in front of Leland saving Leland's life. Leland was shot in the leg, but that occurred much earlier in the novel. The novel ends with Leland being given needed medical attention and loaded into a waiting ambulance. He does not remain lying on the street. "Nothing Lasts Forever" is a very good book. It is well worth checking out.

[@jasontermini8487]

Alan Rickman's face when he falls off the building is a real face of realizing his harness was detached on purpose. Not to kill him but the director wanted a more genuine reaction.

It'd be kind of interesting if the crew that made the first Die Hard could have made a prequel with the previous book's material. I suppose that, given Willis is now as old as the book's protagonist, they *could* make a film with him, but it's not be a "Die Hard" prequel, course.

1. In the book, Leland doesn't leap off the building to escape an explosion, more to avoid the terrorists that have came hunting for him as they shoot the helicopters out the sky. 2. Robinson doesn't jump in front of Leland at the end, Al Powell shoves him in front of Karl's firing line to save Lelands life. Also, it's not actually noted that Leland survives, with the last line suggesting he actually dies.

You missed the start of the book. The cab ride to the airport, where Leland pulls his gun on some asshole causing trouble with the cab driver, and then worrying about it as he goes for the plane. And then the start of his romance with the flight attendant, I forget her name. Then you miss the part about him being obsessed with getting his hands on a kalashnikov, which he sees as a great weapon that would help his fight no end. Instead he ends up with an old BAR, a WW2-era assault style rifle. I also didn't hear you talk about the massive difference in how Leland/Mclane got his wounded feet. It was a planned thing from Gruber in the book, in which he has made his men smash all the lighting in the stairways, letting the broken light tubes fall into the stairs, plunging the stairwell into darkness. Leland then walks into the stairwell, wondering why the lights are out and immediately stepping into the glass and starts straight away to berate himself for literally walking into such a simple trap. And it all happens because Gruber had noticed that Joe had left shoes and socks in the room before escaping. There was also a slightly different reason for the "fists with your toes" thing that Joe does after a flight. This not being something a guy on the plane tells him, but rather something he had found soothing back when he was a pilot years before.

Correction: Deputy Chief Dwayne T. Robinson doesn't leap in front of McClane/Leland at the end of the book. What is says is: "Robinson had his gun out, but he never got off a round. Karl shot first, as Al Powell grabbed Robinson's shoulder and pulled him into Karl's line of fire." Yup. Powell practically straight-up murders Robinson in the original book. The 70's were a different time.

Watched Die Hard again this year. Here's the thing, the moment in the Bathroom where Mclane tells Powell to find his wife and say he's sorry, is what elevates this movie beyond standard action fare by giving the protagonist (antagonist... I'm not having this argument again!) an emotional arc as well as a structural one. Is there a similar scene in the book? If so, what is it about? Seems like Leland is pissed at his daughter from the beginning and would never change. Please let me know. Merry Christmas and Yip-ee-kay-aye.

[@jasonblalock4429]

+keldaris Maybe in terms of the plot itself, but there are several significant character differences too. Aragorn is much more complicated in the movies, starting unsure of himself (and something of a self-loathing human) whereas in the book he's pretty much always Mr. I-Am-Awesome-And-Will-Be-King the whole way through. Or, Sam was considerably dumber in the book - but still faithful - whereas Merry & Pippin were considerably smarter. Not to mention the omission of Denethor's Palantir from the movies, which I consider to be one of the only major mistakes Jackson made in terms of trims and edits. Or, for that matter, the whole business with Sam's temptation by the Ring was also cut pretty much entirely along with a lot of his trials rescuing Frodo from Minas Morgul.

[@jurisprudens]

What about the fact that in the book Gollum slipped on a rock and fell into the lava pit by himself, as opposed to Frodo murdering him in the movie? This is very out-of-character for Frodo, I would say...

Nosferatu? that's a load of classic there ;)

[@jdzratt1esnake]

[@gabrielpresley6699]

[@DaidriveCJ]

Could you guys cover Soylent Green as well sometime soon?

[@treflipscanligma247]

Everyone forgets First blood took place during Christmas. It’s a better Christmas movie 🥲

[@CripTikStorm]

One of the rare cases where I prefer the movie over the book.

[@darkngyth]

Could you do a what's the difference video on the Richard Bachman (Stephen King) novel The Running Man? I enjoy the movie and the book and would love to see you do a video on it

[@spiff2268]

Damn, gotta read the book now.

Greatest Christmas, action, Bruce Willis move ever

[@DorkoMcBoogerpants]

could you do chilidren of men? I'm almost finished with it, and I'm so surprised with how different it is from the movie.
