Show Notes

Yipee-Kai-Yay and Merry Christmas. Join your favourite TransAtlantic podcasting crew – Ian, Liam, and Georgia (Ethan is watching 60 Minutes) as we review the most contentious Christmas movie ever in Die Hard.  We're Moonlighting with a 2nd full review in 4 days as we look at the film that made Bruce Willis a movie star.  We're walking on broken glass in our 102nd episode as we discuss:

  • The laundry list of names that turned down the role of John McLane and what surprising name had contractual first right of refusal
  • Some of the television dubs for the trademark Yippee-Kai-Yay line to avoid profanity
  • Why did the security guard even bother making John look up who he was there to visit
  • Are there one too many idiot supervisors as obstacles on the police force
  • We discuss some Christmas traditions
  • We hear from several friends of the podcast wishing the BFE and its listenership the best of holiday seasons
  • Whether or not Die Hard is the Best Film Ever
