10/10 reaction
Really enjoyed this reaction. Merry Christmas, Laurenn!🎄💋
Yippee Ki Yay!!!
I love your reaction. As I say in Belgium : JOYEUX NOËL !!! 🎄🎁🎅🏻
Merry Christmas 🎅🤶
That look on Alan Rickmans face when he fell was genuine. He was scared of the drop, but to help him, they said theyd drop him on the count of 3. They dropped him on 1.
He also would flinch every time he fired his gun,they would have to cut away as soon as he squeezed the trigger. He’s such a great actor to make Hans seem perfectly comfortable with firearms. I’m not sure why he was like that but maybe because there’s not really a gun culture in the UK it was foreign to him,Idk
You beat me to it! That’s exactly what I was about to say! Don’t you just love fun Facts?!?
@@michaelblaine6494 Some actors who flinch at gunshots are sensitive to loud noises. And trust me, guns are WAY louder than movies make them seem. If you're not used to it, anyone would flinch.
Not to mention that Alan was deathly afraid of heights AND they made him do the drop *several* times... Then went with the first take.
They didn't tell him when they were going to drop him either so it's totally genuine.
"No fu*kin sh** lady do I sound like I'm ordering a pizza" might be one if the best lines in cinematic history.
"Welcome to the party, pal."
I fucking can't read asterisk! SHIT!
@@battlestarnomore they usually won't allow me to post if my post has swears in it. Idk why yours stayed mine always goes away immediately.
The 80's were, in retrospect, a golden era for films and music. We knew it was special at the time, but could not have foreseen how quickly it would be forgotten and lost.
You don't miss it till it's gone.
It just isn't Christmas until Hans Gruber is thrown off of Nakotomi tower.
Growing up in the 80s, I only knew Bruce Willis from a TV show called “Moonlighting” with Cybil Shepard. When this movie came out it launched him into the action star we know him as now. This movie proves one thing; that an action hero can look like your Dad and still kick ass. I mean, he’s no Arnold or Stallone. He’s more of an everyday hero. Hope you keep watching the rest. The first 3 movie are great. I would say that 3 is my favorite.
Lauren watching Die Hard on Christmas! What a great gift for us to receive today!
Merry Christmas and happy holidays Duncan! Thank you for watching my video🥰
I get kind of teary-eyed when Al kills Karl. Weird I know . If you really think about it, it is one hell of a redemption arch. Al is a good cop that's broken by a terrible mistake. When the chance comes where he must protect his partner, he doesn't hesitate. He gets his personal honor back, and he can finally heal.
In recent years, I’ve come to wish that instead of the Die Hard 2 we got, it had been a buddy cop film about John & Al.
The accent that Hans puts on when he first meets John face to face is hilarious lmao RIP to Alan Rickman. Such a great actor.
I love how human John McClane is. He has personal problems, and he actually gets his ass kicked a little. It sets him apart from other characters that were played by his action movie peers (Arnold, Stallone, etc).
P.S. Your reaction was super entertaining throughout the whole video, and the faces you were making during certain moments made me laugh out loud lol
Rickman was doing a Texan accent during set breaks and the director liked it so much that he used it as a way of getting McClain and Hans together.
And that is why Die Hard 5 flop. They made John McClaine into super masculine "boys don't cry nor show emotion* man. Whereas in others films he is showed to have weakness, wasn't afraid to show emotion and knows to retreat and regroup when thing gets tough.
@@YolandaAnneBrown95726 Is that what that was supposed to be? A Texas accent? I never found it that convincing. Sounds barely different from his "german" accent. Both sound too close to Alan's natural speaking voice.
Didnt quite nail the American accent but a top actor.
I think that's part of the reason we also love John Wick. Yeah, they can take a beating, yeah, they can give a beating, yeah, they're both still human.
28:18 Willis made the best "omfg I almost died" face I've ever seen on any actor. Ever.
Yes! I’ve always loved that expression.
Fun Fact: The explosion occured at the Fox Tower. They actually charged themselves for filming.
Fun Fact 2: Alan Rickman's expression before he fell was genuine. They told him that they would let go on 3. They let go on 2. By the way, Alan was afraid of heights
Very cool! Thanks for the fun facts!
4:32 my mom and dad, once a year
Fun trivia: Main reason the side characters got so much story is cause Bruce Willis was filming a TV-series at the same time and he was getting burnt out, so they had to give him some breaks to recover every now and then
I believe the TV-show was Moonlighting ;) =)
Yes, at that time, TV actors were considered 2nd tier compared to movie actors. When the star of TVs “Moonlighting “ was cast as the lead of a big summer Hollywood movie it was a big risk. But “Die Hard” was a huge hit and catapulted Bruce Willis to movie star status.
He is Snape to many now, to us he was always Hans Gruber.
I saw this way too young but loved it from the beginning - humour, splosions, good pacing, real stakes, sets a standard for action movies.
(And the smoking makes me nostalgic as much as the cassette tapes and lack of cell phones).
Actually, John did see Hans when he was hiding in the elevator earlier. He knew all along.
The scar on Bruce's arm is from a motorcycle accident when he was younger, there was some kind of surgical complication and that's why the gnarly scar.
Your reaction to Ellis calling him, "John Boy", was hilarious.
That was so cringe lmao
@@LoveLaurenn agreed 🎅
19:44 "Hey, john boy."
my cringe moment was calling Gruber "Bubbie" or however you want to spell it. I cringed so hard I thought my spine would break.
one day, while we were in high school, my sister greeted me at school by saying "hey john boy,"
then i did it to her later that day, i did it to her. When we got home, at dinner, we said "hey MOM boy," to our mom.
For DAYs it was Johnboy this and Johnboy that and heyJohnboy every chance we could.
And...all that time, we were saying to each other "where is that from again?"
And for DAYS, we wracked our brains trying to remember.
Then she says "Ellis! Ellis said it."
"Ah..Ellis."
I love how when Powell backs up over the hill and Argyle's jamming in the car you see the guys body fly up in the air off the hood lol.
Ooooohhoohoohoo! I have to watch that again!
@@robertlombardo8437 it's the best little touch I love when a director or screenplay guy has that sense of detail, lol
This is a action masterpiece that set the standard! The second and third are awesome as well. And remember it ain’t christmas until you see Hans Gruber fall of the Nakatomi tower!
2:44 Curious. Inquisitive. Some people are curious and inquisitive.
tiny bit nosey. 😊
3:08 awkward. 😬
3:17 "that's awkward" voice
I think the character of Ellis is under rated. He was a sleaze ball, but he didn't give up Holly. He risked his own life trying to be a hero. It was a stupid play but he had balls.
How exactly was he trying to be a hero? By giving information about John to the terrorists? Oh yes such a hero.
@@nirppa100 he really didn't give them much. He was trying to talk the situation through so nobody else died. He could have used Holly as info but didn't. He lied and said John was with him as a friend, giving John a reason to be there besides Holly. Ellis was naive and stupid but was trying to save lives.
Merry Christmas ho ho ho now I have a machine gun 😂
5:27 100% Laurenn does this after her next flight.
Of course it is a Christmas movie because it even has a Christmas Miracle in it as Hans says" It's Christmas, Theo. It's the time of miracles. You asked for miracles, Theo, I give you the F.B.I."
7:25 common theives Laureen. Well dressed common theives.
I saw this in Portland, OR when it first came out. One of the reviewers (I think in the Oregonian newspaper) described Al Powell as the "teddy bear-like cop" who befriends John McClane. I thought that was just the best description. It fits lovable actor Reginald VelJohnson's character so perfectly.
Havent watched this in a long time. That part were he was picking glass out of his foot gave me flash backs of the time I stepped on a broken glass down stem lol
14:42 thanks for dropping by
The scar on Bruce Willis' right shoulder is from surgery due to complications from a broken arm when he was 17.
Brice knew it was Hans because all of the "terrorists" were wearing the same watches. A scene that was cut showed all of them synchronizing their identical watches.
I love this movie. I was not a fan of Willis in '88. All I knew him from was "Moonlighting". My friend at work said, "Let's get some beers go by my house get some smoke and go to the drive in". I'm like, duuuuh, OK! The next month he turned down a promotion, I took it and became his boss. I only mention it 'cause I joked with him I was gonna drop a dime at the next meeting, like, every time there was a meeting, lol. He was a lead man so he had to attend all meetings. He played along like, "Don't you dare fucker!" I miss those guys! I miss the 80's too!
Love the outro, nice edits Laurenn. adding the clips from the movie and clips of you during your commentary is next level. 👍🏼
Thank you! I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Happy Holidays😄
8:44 Laureen predicts the plot
Laurenn, Alan Rickman's (RIP) face when he dropped was genuine because as they dropped him obviously from a safe height, they told him they would count to 3 and release him but the director dropped him at 2, hence the complete look of surprise : ) I love all the sequels especially 3 - no spoilers but it's a great one - Happy Holidays to you and yours
There is always some idiot that comes up with this fact.
Congratulations it's you Mr obvious
I wore a “Nakatome Plaza Christmas 1988” Shirt today. And to my brother’s Christmas BBQ last night on Christmas Eve.
@LoveLaurenn
Fun fact about Rick's falling scene.
He was TERRIFIED of heights.
So, to make it AUTHENTIC.
They did NOT warn him they were gonna drop him.
They WANTED that terrified look on him.
The best Christmas gift this year:
Your face when John is removing glass from his feet 😅
After the first few seconds I knew this would be a great movie reaction lol
hehehe I really enjoyed this movie Corporal! Happy Holidays my friend!
"You are amazing, you figured this all out already." The utterly fake innocent expression on his face and his voice literally dripping sarcasm gets me every single time.
Lauren coming thru on X-Mas. Merry Christmas Lauren!!😁😁
Merry Christmas SnoopFroggyFrog🥰
NOW it's Christmas!! 🎄💥🎁
I was hoping to see your reactions to this!
I was about to take a long bath, twist one and head over to my friend's for a Christmas 420, but now that I see this post I'm going to twist one, kick back and watch my favorite Christmas movie with my favorite lady!
Merry Christmas, and best to you!
Edit: (I forgot this strain gives me the munchies! Where the hell is a Twinkie when you need one?)
Your reactions were better than all the other reactions I've seen to this movie. I saw this in July 1988 when it first came out, and I didn't know who Bruce Willis was or what the movie was about, but by then end the whole audience was cheering and we were all in the holiday spirit!!!
Merry Christmas, Lovelaurenn!
One of my absolute favorite action films of all time!! Love those Christmas Puns and Bruce Willis killed it in the role!! Happy Trails Hans!!!🎄🎅🔫
well said Mr Cowboy 😀
@christophersantiago3696 This is also a favourite of mine and undeniably one of the best action films of the 80's i think Bruce Willis ' everyman appeal and his wisecracking ways helped to make his John McClane so likable to audiences ..
definitely a treat for CHristmas day treat to see LoveLauren's reaction to it .
Hope you had an awesome Christmas !
🎅
Cheers Merry CHRISTMAS and yippee kay -yay !! 😃🎅🤘
@@harveylee51 I loved the catchy tunes Argyle was listening in to like Christmas in Hollis by RUN DMC and Skeletons by Stevie Wonder! Merry Christmas to you to!🎅🎄
"Happy trails to you, 'til we meet again." - TV's The Roy Rogers Show closing theme song, written by Roy's wife, Dale Evans!
@@glennwisniewski9536 Brilliant...McClane used the alias "Roy" and line Yippe Ki Yay to homage his cowboy hero!!🤠
i love seeing the reactions from all the Millennials on movies and music from the 70's, 80's and 90's welcome to our generation a time when things where not taken as serious as people take things today.
Such a joy to see you react to Die Hard on Christmas Day. Much Love to you Laurenn. Merry Christmas 🎅
“Fists with your toes” guy is also in Ernest Saves Christmas.
1. Karl/Alexander Godunov(RIP) also played in "The Money Pit" with Tom Hanks and "Witness" with non Indiana/Solo Harrison Ford.
He had a very interesting story.
2. Robinson/Paul Gleason(RIP) seems to always play buttheads. I.e. "Trading Places" and "The Breakfast Club".
3. Another fun Willis movie that have similar events is "The Last Boy Scout". They drop more F-bombs that you can shake a stick at. Including a little girl.
4. He better have a place to crash.😍😘😋
5. The dead body that fell was full of bullets Dumbass🙄🤬
6. YES, a Christmas movie. It takes place at a Christmas party.
7. Missing you Bruce.😪
That movie is for so many people a kind of Christmas tradition 🙂 no Christmas without Die Hard and was surprised that you haven't reacted to this wonderful movie before.
Bruce Willis very young and with that one they changed the tone of action movies. He was the single unwanted hero that got hurt and played dirty to win. Alan Rickman was an amazing villain. Reginald VelJohnson is a wonderful sidekick as police officer. I guess he played the police officer in a lot of TV shows and movies.
Nice that you did it. That's brought out so many wonderful movies, it was just a fantastic time.
Thanks a lot
merry Christmas and happy holidays, enjoy your time 💕😊
Your sweet reaction to this masterpiece is definitely one of the highlights on YT this year.
Looks like I got a present after all.
Thanks Lauren.
Stay awesome
Yup. I still LoveLaurenn. Great reaction Lauren. You're reactions are WAY too fun!
Oh.. and "Bare Footies". Luv it! Your facial expressions and your little cutesy terms are great. LOL
You should watch "The 5th Element", its an awesome Bruce Willis movie
Oh it's absolutely your kinda action movie! Also the best kinda non-traditional Christmas movie.
Merry Christmas Lauren! 🎅
Thanks dear! Nice reaction. Merry Christmas 🎅
Happy holidays and Yippee-Ki-Yay, Laurenn!
Happy Holidays to you as well! weeeee
Merry Christmas Laurenn. Loving your reactions. Can't wait to see what you watch in 2023. Hopefully The Fifth Element is planned.
Thank you so much Nick, Merry Christmas to you as well😃
Die hard is a truly phenomenal movie,and Bruce Willis is one of my top actor's. Incredible video as always laurenn. Stay amazing. And hope you are having a great Christmas.
I thought it was pretty great, Bruce Willis was my favorite thing about this movie. His performance was *chef's kiss*😄 I'm glad you enjoyed the video cosmic! Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!
@@LoveLaurenn thanks laurenn. Keep well and stay phenomenal
Excellent Christmas choice 🥳A lot of people tend to say: There's no Christmas until Hans Gruber flies off the Nakatomi tower (actually the 20th Century Fox tower they borrowed for filming the movie).
Literally just a bunch of bank robbers stepping up their game
My favorite observation someone had is Ellis doing coke earlier, then when trying to get McClain to give himself up they gave him coca cola. So he asked for coke for the negotiation
This film is a masterpiece. So much information from the first shot. See his wedding ring? If you're a fan of audio commentaries, this blu-ray commentary with McTeirnan is fascinating. Merry Christmas Laurenn.
11:58 kinda sounded like The Count from Sesame Street. 😊
Bruce's scar on his right shoulder is from complications from a surgery for a broken arm when he was 17. Love this movie! Yippy Ki-yay!!
Poor Alan Rickman. He had an illustrious stage career, great performance in Die Hard and he's reduced to 'that guy from Harry Potter'.
I loved your reactions when it seemed that you mostly did horror films, but you've shown the ability to appreciate all kinds of genres, and you're one TH-cams best reactors. Have a happy holiday and a great 2023.
It was clear as to why Holly regained respect for John once again. He truly have a damn about her, he went through all that chaos not just to save himself but her and the hostages too.
Hans’ face in the final shot of him falling is legendary.
Not Christmasy enough? I beg to differ, there’s tons of Christmas trees and decorations throughout, carols hummed by characters, the word Christmas is dropped many times as well as many other Christmas references, the music also has jingle bells incorporated throughout. Also what’s the plot? A man is coming to visit his family on Christmas Eve and invited to a Christmas party first, it just so happens someone decides to screw it up. So Die Hard is a Christmas movie, just not a family one.
Fun fact. According the official lore of the British Army's 57th Regiment of Foot (which is now absorbed as part of the Queen's Regiment), the term "die hard," meaning someone who, contrary to all reason, refuses to give up, originated at the Battle of Albuera in 1811. The 57th was on the verge of being routed by the French. They were so close to breaking that French commander, Marshal Soult, said "I penetrated their center. I turned their flank. They were defeated. The day was mine."
Making matters worse, the 57th's commander, Col. William Inglis, was hit in the chest and neck. Though bleeding badly and in great pain, Inglis refused to leave his troops and would not allow himself to be evacuated from the field. Remaining by the regimental colors, he exhorted his men to hold their ground and fight to the end with the words "DIE HARD 57th! DIE HARD!" Despite taking heavy losses, the 57th did hold until British reinforcements finally arrived and drove the French back. Since then, the 57th have been nicknamed "The Die Hards." There's even a song about them called "The Jolly Die Hards."
After the battle, Marshal Soult would complain "They were defeated. The day was mine. But THEY DID NOT KNOW HOW TO RUN AWAY!" And the British Army's after action report stated that all casualties of the 57th were wounded in the front indicating that they were hit facing the enemy - not running from them.
There is evidence that the term "die hard" may have been coined before the Battle of Albuera. However, whether or not the 57th originated the term, their stubborn courage and determination at Albuera absolutely earned them the nickname "Die Hards."
the bet exchange always gives me a chuckle
The guy that played the cop on the radio with John is my father! Just kidding. Happy Holidays lady. Original 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾, #2 👍🏾, #3 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾 and I stopped after that.
Happy Holidays to you as well ShoNuff! I'm excited to checkout the sequels😄
Nice! Clicked and gave a like. Watched it yesterday as every year 🤣
Merry Christmas!

Alan Rickman makes a great villain. I recommend the western “Quigley Down Under@ starring him and Tom Selleck. Have you reacted to any westerns? I’m not sure. That would make a great first western.
Must have this film a million times and I never noticed the scar on his shoulder Another great video from the best sub i made all year
This hard to believe that had become such a staple during the Christmas season. Merry Christmas & be blessed.
Merry Christmas Andrew!
The face Alan Rickman makes when he falls from the building is real.
The stunt was him falling from a short distance with a net under him for a full camera zoom on his face and the fall from higher up, when you see the body falling from afar is a stunt guy.
They told Rickman, the was attached then let go that they would count to three and then let go.
But McTiernan (the director) wanted realism in Alan's face so he let him go at 2 when he was not prepared.
Obviously, Alan Rickman was taken aback, not expecting to fall sooner and the look of surprise he has is 100% real.
Die Hard With a Vengeance is my favorite Die Hard movie. It is the 3rd movie. This is a close 2nd place.
Lovely Laurenn, Merry christmas!!!
Great reaction video for this day
Merry Christmas, Laurenn
Love all your reactions
Merry Christmas Joker! Thank you for the kind words🥰
The cop helping John in the movie is the tv dad actor from the comedy tv show FAMILY MATTERS an he played a cop in a few other movies like Ghostbusters 84, Die Hard 2, Tunner and Hooch
80's Christmas action classic
A strange fact is that this movie has 4 Christmas songs and takes place at a Christmas party, but the famous 1954 White Christmas only has 2 Christmas songs and most of the movie doesn't take place at Christmas.
I hope you had a Wonderful Christmas holiday Lauren.
I'm sure 2023 will be a another fantastic year of reactions.
Love the fun, upbeat and curious attitude/energy you bring to your reactions.
Allen Rickman (RIP)was a very good actor. I suggest seeing him in the Comedy Galaxy Quest 1999 Sigourney Weaver from Alien/Aliens is also in it. If you haven't seen it of course.
Bruce Willis has been in some really big movies, but perhaps one of the best movies he has ever starred in is The Sixth Sense. You should see it. That one will blow your mind.
YES!!!
BEST CHRISTMAS MOVIE EVER!!
Before Bruce Willis was cast as John McClane, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Harrison Ford, Kevin Costner, James Caan, Michael Douglas, Tom Cruise, Mel Gibson, Richard Gere, Charlie Sheen, Patrick Swayze, William Hurt, Mickey Rourke, Jeff Bridges, Nick Nolte, Kurt Russell, Sylvester Stallone, Clint Eastwood, Paul Newman Warren Beatty Ryan O'Neal Dustin Hoffman Al Pacino, Robert DeNiro, and Charles Bronson were considered for the role.
For the cop Al Powell, Laurence Fishburne, Denzal Washington, Gene Hackman, Robert Duvall, and Wesley Snipes were considered.
The movie is based on the 1979 novel, Nothing Lasts Forever which was the sequel to the movie The Detective which starred Frank Sinatra. In the novel he is named Joe Leland rather than John McClane.
The ending was a lot darker than the movie itself: SPOILERS!
McLane shoots Gruber in the chest, but not before he grabs Holly by her sweater where they fall out of the window to their deaths.
Karl does survive and starts to shoot at police and reporters with an M-60 Machine Gun.
Powell kills Karl with an M-16 rifle , where a stray bullet from Karl's gun strikes McClane in the leg, where he is put in an ambulance but dies of his injury.
Merry Christmas Laurenn.
Merry Christmas Kieron!
Merry Christmas Lauren my friend🎁😊 I love your reaction to Die Hard Bruce Willis is great actor, can't wait to join your live stream soon later my friend !!
Fun Movie Fact For Laurenn: Before Bruce Willis was chosen for the lead role, Arnold was offered Die Hard, as a sequel to Commando! ( Cue Laurenn's amazing Arnold impression! ) :)
"Is he doing drugs off the desk?" No, he was doing coke... :D
"I'm going to count to three. There will not be a four."
Well, he did warn him.
Another great choice Lauren! Merry Christmas!
Every day I creep closer to the end, hopefully I'll reach the finish line soon enough. Merry Christmas
Trivia: Alan Rickman was dropped, not from a building but a platform and then screen screened into the shot. McTeirnan wanted a real look of surprise from Rickman so without telling him he planned in dropping him. Originally he was just suppose to act it out. The look on Rickman’s face is genuine.
Merry Christmas Miss LuvvvlyLaurenn. Goodnight 👊🏼
Another fun fact: The firehose drop down the side of the building was performed by Bruce Willis and it was the first scene he filmed. The big name action stars all declined to do Die Hard, so the studio got Willis cheap. They filmed the stunt first so that if he died, they still had time and budget to recast and reshoot. Film making has changed a little since the 80's lol.
Great movie. It was Alan Rickman Rip breakout role. You should watch the sequel which is even more a Christmas movie . Another great underrated action Christmas movie you should see is Reindeer games 2000 with Ben Affleck. no one react to it yet. I would also highly recommend the ultimate Christmas movie It's A Wonderful Life.
Hey Lauren!
Wishing you a very Merry Christmas hun.
You look stunning.
Die hard is such a good action movie.
It had a good selection of characters as well as a good story.
Once one problem is solved, along comes another, Lol! 😂
A great reaction hun.
Have a fantastic day, take care! ♥️
The shot of Bruce in the duct with the lighter...is a Christmas tree ornament. We have one on the tree at work.
lol love that!
Dwayne T. Robinson has such great lines for such an idiot character. "we're gonna need some more FBI guys" "I hope that wasn't one of the hostages".
I love this movie. John shit-talking Dwayne always makes me laugh.
This was the good thing that when CGI did not exist in those years, the special effects in the movies looked real, because it was filmed real or simulated with practical effects and scale models and explosives, like the terrace of the building when it explodes, it is a scale terrace built to explode it, the same with the police tank, it is a miniature scale model and the explosion looks real.
This was Alan Rickman's first movie role and his character Hans is still regarded as one of the most noted villan's movie history.
Just discovered you this is my 3rd reaction with u love the channel😎
Love this movie and your reaction to it Lauren ! and just so you know not to take away from how hard Bruce Willis worked on this movie , he absolutely did , but the director did let him wear flesh coloured foot protectors for many of the running scenes 🦶 i believe this added to how the audience would feel his pain in fact one of the taglines for Die Hard 2 when it came out was
'' HE'S BACK AND THIS TIME HE HAS SHOES ON !! '' 😄
Die Hard is a must watch this time of year and your reaction just adds to it
hope you had an awesome CHRISTMAS ! 😀🎅🙏
