The Greatest Movie Ever Made Turns 20 Today



That's right. Die Hard was released 20 years ago today, and changed action movies forever. Often imitated, but rarely (if ever) duplicated, it was simple, realistic (for the most part), and tons of fun. And became the GreatMoose's favorite Christmas movie.



Yippy-kai-yay, indeed.

Great movie indeed, makes me want to get the trilogy.... quadogy? and watch them all.... cant go wrong with Bruce WIllis in an action movie!
but I thought Christmas Vacation was your fav Christmas movie?

Well, it is a tough fight between Vacation, Die Hard, and Scrooged. But really, what captures the Christmas Spirit more than terrorists taking over a building and a NY cop having to kill them all? Feliz Navidad.

Very true, nothing says Merry Christmas like death, violence and mass destruction! Happy birthday Jesus!
