“Just like fuckin’ Saigon!”
“I was in junior high!” “Dickhead.” Funny that it was long enough ago that Vietnam vets could still be ~40 years old. ETA: fixed quote |

You know what’s bothered me about it? The security guard tells McClane to type the name into the computer. Finds his wife. Security guard tells him they’re the only ones left in the building.
Seriously? Couldn’t have just told him that the party was on the 30th floor?

I always laugh at the fact that no one heard all the shooting on the roof. I mean that much FA shooting would have been heard for miles.

Quoted: When Agent Johnson and Special Agent Johnson are in the helo riding toward the tower, Agent Johnson tells the pilot, "Keep her on the deck. They're expecting a transport, not a gun ship." I can't remember if this is before or after he compares the ride to bein in 'Nam, and Special Agent Johnson calls him a "dickhead." But that's neither here nor there. Here's what bothers me: Their flight path takes them toward the tower fast and low. Wouldn't their actions be exactly how a gunship is SUPPOSED to fly? If you're mimicking a transport, wouldn't you keep her high and slow? I know, I know. I'm overthinking it. I can't help it. I am who I am. "Shut the fuck up, Donny!" |

What bothered me is the amount of continuity error is in the time it takes after the explosion for the Agent Johnson's ignited helicopter to then fall from the building. Blows up and then many minutes later falls down???
At 2:40 the roof blows and takes out the chopper. Bruce Willis has time for that intense scene where he clings to the fire hose, and it nearly pulls him down and out a window. Minutes later at 3:49 in the video when Bruce is at the party floor with the fountains, the Chopper finally falls off the roof, blowing some windows inward with a blast he has to dodge. Sure took a long time for the chopper to fall a few feet.  Die Hard - Blow the Roof clip |
