GB and AJ reunite (one in a John Mclane-style vest, one in an old suit with a tie made of wrapping paper (because professionalism) to dive into Die Hard (1988): the morally-objectionable-to-the-Church, career-defining-for-Willis, perfection-delivered-by-Rickman masterpiece. We get into: • Whether Ellis was actually trying to bang Holly Gennero • Why Bruce Willis starts the film clutching a teddy like a stressed toddler • Hans Gruber’s foreign Die Hard titles, including the incredible German “To Die Slowly” • YouGov polls and an unwanted amount of Greek translation • The book, the script disasters, and the moment the movie found its soul Plus: Listener comments (huge thanks continue to our wonderful supports over at Patreon), Bond hangovers, and AJ somehow visiting 43 countries since the last episode but definitely isn't a Universal Exports spy or an assassin. Join us for ridiculous festive joy, top-tier film chat, and the return of the Rewind Classic Movies madness. 🗓️ Don't miss the NEW STYLE FAST FORWARD episode next week when both the guys return to look at their Favorite Christmas Movies!
