This week we dive into one of the many classic scenes from the original 1988 (Christmas?) film Die Hard, directed by John McTiernan. We chose the "Ho ho ho, now I have a gun" scene. We discuss the origins of John McClane, his effect on future action stars, how smart of a character he is and the ultimate question, is Die Hard a Christmas movie? Enjoy the conversation!
