Tee & Sympathy Ho Ho Ho Now I Have A Machine Gun Sweatshirt - Inspired by Die Hard

Product Information

Early evening in Los Angeles would be midday (the following day) in Tokyo, so everyone would still be at work. Justified because neither they nor any other law enforcement outside Nakatomi know who to look for, and McClane is firing his submachine gun willy-nilly to scare the hostages back downstairs. John famously uses a Beretta 92F, which was modified with an extended slide release on the left side (Bruce Willis is left-handed). Powell and Deputy Commissioner Robinson have had tensions all evening due to their differing views on McClane and how to handle the situation, but they're united in their concern for the hostages once the FBI show up. In the film, nothing unsavory is shown about the Nakatomi corporation, and the head of the company personally is much more noble.

Hidden Weapons: John goes to confront the bad guys by feigning surrender and dropping his submachine gun, and then defeats them with his Beretta 92F pistol, which he had secured to the back of his neck with duct tape. This is subtly lampshaded when Theo says to Hans, "You didn't bring me along for my charming personality," implying that Theo realizes that he isn't a pleasant person to be around.

With this firepower and the advantage of being entrenched, the crooks manage to easily fend off the LAPD for hours.

Indestructible Edible: John finds a Twinkie that he says is years old and asks what they're made of. A silent version occurs when Karl points his gun into John's face from Behind the Black, right when the latter is about to warn the cops about the double cross on the roof. Funny Background Event: Just after Gruber kills Takagi, Theo holds out his hand to Karl, who places a crisp banknote in it. Even Evil Has Loved Ones: Karl is deeply affected by the death of his younger brother Tony and subsequently spends the rest of the film hell-bent on killing McClane.Obviously, with a heist this meticulously planned, Hans would already know that, but the dialogue is there so the audience understands the significance of the FBI cutting the power to the building. John seemed to have seen this coming, as before asking the question, he takes a peek at the directory. Glued to the hands of Deputy Chief Robinson, until the FBI agents (who may qualify for Too Dumb to Live) take it away from him. As a result, though, it easily has the most gripping action scenes of the series, with the fight scenes needing to be drawn out longer and more action-packed due to the shortage of disposable mooks. Spell My Name With An S: Holly's maiden name of Gennero is usually seen spelled with two Es, though it is spelled "Gennaro" on the computer at the beginning of the film (though it changes to the other spelling when John selects it) and in the credits.

When he hears it's taking place right above him at Nakatomi Tower, he takes a drink right from the bottle. Every step of the way all of John's claims and warnings are ignored by the Chief, while Powell is the only one able to read between the lines and see both what John is trying to say and what Hans is trying to do. Every other movie in the series has him play this straight, and the degree to which he is made of iron increases in each successive sequel. The crooks are out to steal hundreds of millions of dollars in "Bearer Bonds", financial vouchers issued in the period redeemable for cash (eventually banned because of their use in money laundering and drug dealing).

Thus he has a polished Anglo-German accent that could pass as a native speaker at a glance, but still uses German grammar and sentence constructs in his speech. Ellis (whom he met once) tries to get in Gruber's good graces by attempting to talk his "friend" McClane into giving himself up. He still proves he can get the job done when the Not Quite Dead Karl comes back for one last shot at McClane. John is relieved that all Ellis said was that they were friends and nothing about being Holly's husband but is immensely aware that Ellis claiming to be best friends with him only makes him a bigger target, and tells Hans he doesn't actually care about him.
