At the scene where Powell first looks at the Nakatomi building from that gas station, the sign says regular fuel is $0.74 a gallon.

I got my drivers license in '97, and gas was right around $0.90 a gallon. And I loved Die Hard.
But as gas prices get higher, the sequels get worse. Conspiracy! |

I always thought it was popular because the whole thing is a metaphor for a divorce where the husband gets screwed over.

I always thought it was just the attitude of being a person employed to carry a gun, but having athority issues.
I miss the days when my mustang wouldn't hold $15 worth of gas. |

I nearly spent $40 on my last fill-up.
 In 2009 I paid an average of $2.18 per gallon and just over $20 per fill-up. Last year I paid $2.64 and almost $28.50 per fill-up. THIS year I'm doing $3.36 and an even 28.00 per fill-up (So far). |

Good Lord. 
Well they did get it right in Die Hard when Hans says "Just another member of a bankrupt culture that thinks he's John Wayne." |

The original Die Hard was awesome because the villains were great, the hero could be identified with, the supporting cast were excellent and the story was intriguing/plausible.

Hey, I was 5 months old when that movie came out.
And I still pine for Miss Milano.

I remember when premium was 25¢/gallon and 100 octane. Of course the gasoline had tetra-ethyl lead as the primary anti-knock compound.
I think Alan Rickman(Hans) played real great villian. |

It was popular because it's a Christmas movie. Just a newer version of "It's a Wonderful Life".
