"YIPPEE KI-YAY" REACTING TO "DIE HARD" (1988) FOR THE FIRST TIME!!

[@ShutEmDownNow]

Actually, Hans did NOT make a mistake when he gave John the fake name. Hans said he was "Bill Clay." The directory on the wall listed "Wm Clay." "Wm" is a rarely-used abbreviation for "William" -- and Bill is a nickname for William. So Hans was VERY slick with the fake name. It's just that John was smart enough to not trust a stranger -- no matter what.

[@znk0r]

I've always wondered where this abbreviation comes from. William/Bill Shatner always had me wondering.

[@tydelthom]

actually it was when "Bill" took the foreign cigarette was when he knew it was Hans...smokers only smoke their brands!

[@handsomestik]

Movie started a whole genre. Speed, Under Seige, Sudden Death, Cliffhanger all came from mother Die Hard.

[@ShutEmDownNow]

Speed: Die Hard on a bus Under Siege: Die Hard on a ship Sudden Death: Die Hard at a sports arena Cliffhanger: Die Hard on a mountain

[@jdxsr85]

And all were awesome also.

Hans told McLean his name was Bill clay but in the scene as he is telling McClain his name McClain is looking at a directory of everybody that works in the building above on his head

[@mikefoster6018]

This is one of those awesome films, like The Princess Bride, Back To The Future, The Wrath Of Khan, Casablanca and It's A Wonderful Life, where everything has a purpose, great emotions and a pay-off in an awesome ending.

[@Sam_of_Anarchy92]

R.I.P to Alan Rickman (Hans Gruber) and Clarence Gilyard (Theo) they'll never be actors as great as them in our lifetime

[@roygarcia4200]

R.I.P Alan Rickman (1946-2016)

[@ZavaXavier]

He was is a great actor.

[@vincentsweargen8436]

This was Alan Rickman's first movie. He was an accomplished Shakespearian stage actor in the UK.

[@sharnieb2723]

Great reaction as usual! That look of fear on Alan’s face was genuine fear, I believe the director was supposed to warn him or countdown before the drop but didn’t to get his genuine reaction 🤣

[@minarge]

they were meant to give a countdown but they dropped him a second earlier on purpose without telling him, a true reaction

[@s001dxp]

"He's in his toes" 🤣🤣 I love y'all reactions.

[@darrylwaddell9838]

You guys forgot Ellis met him when he first got to the building so she didn't tell him anything he didn't already know

[@ProdSangreNueva]

Best action movie of all time. No sequel should have been made. They just don’t live up this one.

[@SkullAngel002]

58:47 - Fun fact, the stunt coordinator told Rickman he would be dropped on the count of "three". Then the SC told his stunt team to drop Rickman on "one" which is why his terrified reaction here is genuine.

[@tentoesdownchristianity]

10K way to go!

[@prettypinkpopsicle]

Bill is a nickname for William. On the board, it had Wm, which is an abbreviation for William.

[@lukasmarsha6843]

Carl, the blond terrorist is ballet dancer Alexander Godunov, by the way)

[@ZavaXavier]

He was great in The Money Pit and Waxwork 2.

[@jaredhardman3378]

I love the practical special effects they don't use anymore. My two favorite trivia facts from this film: Willis did a lot of his own stunts and cut his foot in the stunt where he crashed through the window, so in the final scenes inside he was limping and wincing from his own cut foot. Second, usually when they drop people out of a building they use a dummy. This production company figured out a way to drop a live stuntman safely, so yes, he was flailing his arms realistically as he fell. He was dropped from too high to use an air cushion, so they used a wire harness to swing him away from the building, right as he is lost from sight.

[@toodlescae]

It's A Wonderful Life Miracle on 34th Street (1947) White Christmas Scrooge/A Christmas Carol (1951) All Christmas musts in my house. Along with Die Hard 1&2 and Lethal Weapon. Of course the Rankin Bass animated Christmas movies like Rudolph and Santa Claus is Coming To Town.

[@Dai.Natreacts]

Thank you for the recommendations!!! We’ll keep each one of these in mind for this month!!

“That hairstyle was evil back in the day” 😂😂😂

[@ameyer1970]

This was Alan Rickman’s first movie. He was 41 at the time. Before this he was strictly a stage actor.

[@mrwidget42]

Okay... My favorite Christmas movie is based on Damon Runyon characters, the last movie directed by Frank Capra, "A Pocket Full Of Miracles".

[@natwillcat12]

Classic Christmas movie! One of my fave Alan Rickman roles! Another movie to watch is Love Actually Alan Rickman is in that movie too!

[@GamesbyMarcWolff]

"Walking around in his toes" is now the best new way to say walking around barefoot. "Walking around in her toes" on the other hand, is an entire marketing campaign... Love your guys' banter and personalities. Watching you two always puts me in a happy mood.

[@carlosyoung1984]

Saw this for the first time when I was 6m now I can't go a Christmas without watching it. This and the 2nd.

[@muchpeacemuchlove]

The sign said Clay Wm - Bill is a nickname for William - great reaction guys!

[@erikthompson619]

One of Alan Rickman's conditions for starring in this movie, was that all characters of color, good or villanous, should be portrayed as interesting and intelligent people. The late great Alan Rickman was "woke" long before that was even a word. The term "woke", as you all know or should know, was just invented to make a common sense of respect, courtesy and dignity appear suspicious, by those who possess none of those things.

[@MarioCrosby]

Spoken like a true wokester.

[@AnthonyMoore-rd7yv]

Excellent Christmas 🎄 movie.

[@technofilejr3401]

48:28 Hans wants bearer bonds which are paper documents as good as money. When you bring them in nobody questions you.

[@Sam_of_Anarchy92]

That song by Run DMC is still epic to this day

[@ZavaXavier]

Crazy how a Millennial or Gen Zer tells a Gen Xer in the film how does he knows Run DMC lol.

[@Sam_of_Anarchy92]

​@@ZavaXavier i'm neither and i actually listen to music including run dmc

[@nascreates3392]

The fall was real. That's why Alan looks so scared and his arms were flailing. There was a tarp at the bottom, but he didn't know he was going to fall.

[@technofilejr3401]

46:54 Yeah Holly should have been more quiet. But in this scene she is so happy to know her husband still alive out there fighting these mofos. She couldn’t help herself.

[@djaynorequest]

Lol...they were separated...that's why there's a "spare room". Also, this is the 80s and women were definitely not seen as equals in Japan. If you were married, they expected for you to be at home in the kitchen...it was wrong, but that's what it was

[@floorticket]

"Gremlins" (1984) is a Christmas movie. Saw it first run as an 18-year-old just out of HS. A straight-up Christmas movie premiering in June? Phoebe Cates is about three years older than me, so yeah, I was gaga for her big time back then. We all were; ever since the pool scene in "Fast Times at Ridgemont High" (1982).

[@pugowner1347]

The bumbling cop in the suit is Paul Gleason, who played Clarence Beeks from the Eddie Murphy movie "Trading Places"

[@technofilejr3401]

He also played the detention teacher in The Breakfast Club

[@ZavaXavier]

He was a great actor playing good guys you like and bad guys you really hate.

[@dth2brny121]

Paul Gleason was one of the great 1980s assholes on film and TV. LOL 🤣 Automatically, you had to know his face and immediately hate him back in the day.

"Spare bedroom? I'm sleepin' in the same bed with you!" LOL!

[@brianrecinos3914]

May you two one day watch The Negotiator with Samuel Jackson and Kevin Spacey? That's a good action flick

[@gethriel]

The biggest thing that always angers me is being reminded of the gas prices back then: when Powell leaves the gas station with his stash, he looks at the Nakatomi building down the block and we get a clear picture of the gas price back then; something like 74.9 CENTS per gallon! 🤬 The slimball wouldn't give Holly up, but he did want John out of the way so he could pursue Holly so he chose to throw McClain under the bus but NOT give up that Holly was his wife. McClain could not shoot Hans again at he end because he only had 2 bullets left and he used them on Hans and his fellow thief.

[@technofilejr3401]

6:28 I’ve worked in corporate America for over 30 years. Nobody does a company Christmas party on Christmas Eve. Every year by December 18, your average professional office is a ghost town as everyone is burning off the remainder of their paid vacation. Now with work from home a thing, heck the only living things in the office on Christmas Eve is security personnel, plants and cockroaches.

[@nsasupporter7557]

[@anthonyclark9441]

A Japanese Company don't wanna hear anything about no Christmas Eve. They'll let you have your little Party, but BEST BELIEVE SOMEBODY is still getting some work done up in there. That's what Holly was doing.

[@truevulgarian]

Alan Rickman has a very distinctive voice. I'm guessing that's how John knew it was Hans. Re: the falling scene, Rickman did the stunt himself, falling about 30 ft. He was told he would be dropped on the count of 3 but they triggered it a second early to "surprise" him. So his expression in that shot is not really acting at all.

[@fionnmaccumhaill3257]

Sleepless in Seattle (Meh Ryan) 4. The Ref (Denis Leary) 5. The Family Man (Nicolas Cage) 6. Grumpy Old Men (Walter Matthau, Jack Lemmon) 7. Serendipity (John Cusack,Kate Beckinsale) 8. Bridget Jones Diary (Renee Zelwegger) 9. Best Man Holiday (Taye Diggs, Morris Chestnut) 10. The Holiday (Kate Winslet,Jude Law) Take Care 😳

That Jeffrey Dahmer look-alike who was Karl's (Alexander Godunov) little brother and got his neck broken/killed off by Bruce Willis in this movie is German actor Andreas Wisniewski. He was one of the lead villains in the James Bond film that came out the year before, The Living Daylights

feedback: is painful to watch people with only one earpod. you don't get all the sound on just one. There are people reacting and they have the over the ear ones. You should get wired headphones with a spliter so you can both get full sound.

[@ibjensen8626]

It is not "so damn dumb" that she is saying (very low) that it is John. The only one close to her is Ellis who already knows John is in the building and knows he wouldn't leave his wife there after an attack. What happened was not her fault. But you guys keep going on and on about it. It's clear you don't like the movie. But if you want people to watch your reaction videos, don't post reaction videos of movies you don't like. You will get a lot less subscribers. Most people watch reaction videos of movies they gave already seen a lot of times because they love the movie.

[@ZavaXavier]

I agree they keep on attacking Holly calling out her name calling her a b word blaming her for everything. also making stupid guesses they're like some movie reactions that gets me annoyed. This film made in 88 is great they need to quit hating on it.
