I say it every year. “It just ain’t Christmas til Hans Gruber falls off Nakatomi Plaza.” Funny story. The look of shock on Alan Rickman’s face when he starts falling is totally genuine. The director had him set up on like a 20’ drop to an airbag. He setup the shot and said he’d drop him on the count of three. But he dropped him on one. Cheeky bastard. 😅

Bruce Willis was a *comedy* star. He had a successful comedic series on TV for four seasons. ("Moonlighting" 1985-89) He made a couple comedic movies that were moderate hits, and the idea of putting him in a lead role in an action movie was a hard sell in 1988. (Imagine if Jimmy Carr were announced as the next James Bond.) Everyone was skeptical, including audiences; It didn't really pack theaters opening weekend but strong word-of-mouth made it a surprise hit and completely changed the trajectory of Bruce's career.

The one difference is that Willis never did the physical transformation, his comedic characters were typically handsome, if not very bright men, and although he wasn't built like an action figure, he was in decent shape "for a normal guy." So then as an action hero he was the relatable, balding "normal guy" that could still take on bad guys without six-pack abs.

My dad and all of his buddies had CB radios. There is an entire language that goes along with CBs. For instance a state cop (trooper) is called a Smoky, because many of them wear hats that look like the one Smoky the Bear wears. Phrases like "pedal to the metal" were also used. Drivers would identify themselves with their call letters, usually 3 letters, 3 numbers, and then a "handle" or nickname. My dad was in the banking industry, handling installment loans . His handle was "Easy Money". Mostly it is a way for truckers to communicate with others on the road. They would tell each other where there was a speed trap, or an accident or traffic backup. Just a way to stay informed before cell phones, google maps and the internet.

Ah! You’ve discovered my favorite Christmas movie!! Actually even before Die Hard, Willis became famous in the 1980’s TV series Moonlighting, also starring the former model Cybill Shepherd. The two of them reportedly hated each other, but their onscreen chemistry apparently made for some good TV, because the show has been listed as one of the best TV series of all time. (You may be able to judge for yourself-in the process of googling for some details on this I noticed that the show is going to be streaming (sounds like the details are still being worked out). Willis is notoriously difficult to work with-his feud with Cybill Shepherd is still going after all these years, and he’s had run-ins with many others along the way, including Sylvester Stallone, who worked with him in the Expendables. Not sure what the issue is, but normally a difficult actor gets shelved because so many talented actors are just dying for a chance. Willis’ career has continued precisely because of his onscreen charisma. I know I watch his movies when I find them. And yes, the rest of the Die Hard movies are also worth watching. This is the best but the rest, esp. the one with Samuel L. Jackson (another favorite), are also really good. I still miss Alan Rickman. Keep watching, Kabir!

One big mistake in this movie is when the bad guys called off the fire alarm, the Fire Dept. turned around and left. If an alarm is sent to the FD, then they follow through and check it out, even if it is a false alarm. I worked in a high school and at some point during final exams, some dimwit kid always pulled the fire alarm to disrupt classes. We all had to clear the building and wait for the FD to arrive and check it out and reset the alarms. EVERY SINGLE TIME. Sometimes more than once a day.

Bruce Willis was already "on the map," in terms of being well known. He was in a successful TV series called "Moonlighting" with Cybill Shepherd. This was his first major film role. This was also Alan Rickman's first major film role. "CB" stands for "Citizen's Band" radio. It's a radio setup that allows you to broadcast anything to anyone, with about 50 channels or so. Was very popular with truckers back in the day. But that's why you see John announce "channel 9." Cellular phones did exist in 1988 when this movie came out, but they were bulky and usually only installed in higher-end cars. Which is why we see Argyle as the only person able to talk on his phone after the physical lines are cut.

CB is Citizens Band Radio. In the US it was used by truckers and others and just about anyone could have one, usually in a vehicle. My family used to have one and when we travelled on the interstate we could listen to the truckers to get an idea about traffic ahead. Sometimes you could even ask about traffic on a stretch of road and they might let you know. The bearer bonds Hans was after were a type that was supposed to be untraceble, like cash, but I've always wondered just how true that was. Sounds more like a movie trope than reality.

You can still get them and they are not regulated like a ham radio is, but I think ham radio has more range not sure. Here in the states you need a license to transmit on a ham radio but you can listen all day.

There is a Bill Clay. It shows Wm. Clay, William (Bill Clay), also in a deleted scenes, it is revealed that all the crew are wearing Tag Heuer watches, and he notices "Bill Clay" has a Tag Heuer watch and that's why he gives him the empty gun. And now you see why its a Christmas classic.

Love, love love Bruce Willis every since he starred in the tv show “Moonlighting” with Cyril Shepherd. I fell in love with him watching that show. He’s a great actor and I’ve seen most of his movies. But his latest movies & the 5th element aren’t my cup of tea. Please react to: The Patriot, A Few Good Men & Back to the Future & The Color Purple. There are great movies that aren’t on the IMDB top 100 list.

A Christmas movie in October! This movie is awesome. One of my favorite action movies. I recommend watching A Nightmare Before Christmas in December

Such a great example of how pacing adds so much to an action oriented film along with terminator 2, predator, aliens, and dark knight (though maybe not an action film... The pacing is exquisite). Pacing is oft overlooked but so critical to the difference between good and classic.
