ORIGINAL WATCH PARTY
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Tonight’s Watch Party is DIE HARD.

It’s a movie that delivers every time.

I don’t think we are. Let’s check in with Don Jr.

What’s that Hans?

Fine, fine. Here is my favorite Die Hard parody from Bob’s Burgers.


See you tonight!

BONUS: If you have not yet seen the “Die Hard” episode of The Movies That Made Us on Netflix, I will host a watch party for that one hour before we watch the movie Die Hard.

We normally watch at 10pm EST, but I am perhaps overeager for one of the best movies ever made.

Aww man I just saw this last weekend. I’ll probably watch anyway

There’s always a risk that someone already just watched Die Hard

OK I’m if it’s on at 10. Is there a tutorial for how this Netflix watch part stuff works?

Yes.

If you are joining someone else’s watch party, you click their link. The movie will start playing. THIS IS NOT THE WATCH PARTY. You must now click the NP icon you installed in Chrome. That will now take you to the Watch Party.

However, Die Hard isn’t on Netflix.

You will have to pop in the disc or stream it yourself. Start it exactly at 10pm EST.

Don’t sleep on With a Vengeance. It is a lot more fun than people give it credit for

The perfect action movie. Legitimately perfect.

What’s wrong with DH3? It’s hilarious.

Oh my god lol, DH3 is fine. It’s just not nearly as good as DH2, which also isn’t nearly as good as DH1.

There are movies that are essentially nothing but sensational stunt sequences… “Die Hard With a Vengeance” is the kind of movie where, toward the end, you start looking for the kitchen sink.

Willis and Jackson inhabit most of the scenes, usually together. Their dialogue is heavy on obligatory talk about racism, even though there is not the slightest sign that either one holds racist feelings; I dunno, I guess the use of the N-word makes action heroes feel macho.

I was not quite clear how they used the three- and five-gallon jugs to measure out exactly four gallons of water; a fourth grader can probably enlighten me

I take it back. Holy shit, Ebert gave DH1 two stars?!

Yea I could never figure out getting 4 gallons out of a 3 and 5 gallon jug.

Actually, if you have not yet seen the “Die Hard” episode of The Movies That Made Us on Netflix, I will host a watch party for that one hour before we watch the movie Die Hard. I will add this info to the OP.

@anon92450360, this will put you back in the mood to watch it again for sure.
