S14 Ep711: Die Hard 2

WHM Entertainment
About this episode
“Like most motion pictures, this needed way more Reginald VelJohnson” - Andrew

On this week’s episode, we’re chatting about the high body count/low IQ, Christmas-set sequel, Die Hard 2! Why couldn’t they have developed a script where now-LAPD detective John McClane has some adventure on the streets of Los Angeles instead of a boring D.C. airport? How amazingly scuzzy and inept is Dennis Franz’s Carmine Lorenzo? Did they really need to go the sequelitis route of just repeating famous beats from the first film? And has there been a better villain introduction than William Sadler’s totally nude Colonel Stuart? PLUS: Dennis Franz storms out of a screening of the film Her!

Die Hard 2 stars Bruce Willis, Bonnie Bedelia, William Sadler, Franco Nero, John Amos, Reginald VelJohnson, William Atherton, Art Evans, Fred Thompson, Tom Bower, Sheila McCarthy, and Dennis Franz as Carmine Lorenzo; directed by Renny Harlin.
