This week it's all about what Simon Says as we discuss perahps the most fun film in the Die Hard fracnhise in Die Hard With A Vengeance. Join your favourite Transatlantic podcasting duo - Ian & Liam - to review the first film in the Die Hard franchise where John McLane is home in New York.  We're joined once again by our permaguests, Ellie & Georgia to discuss the movie that had a script that was called 'frail & ridiculous' - and that was by the director himself   It's an adrenaline filled 13th episode as we discuss:

  • Are the Die Hard films really Christmas films?
  • Which actor was the character of Zeus written in mind for, only for the actor to turn it down
  • What other film franchise was this script orginally purposed for
  • Which character's look was described as 'mid-life crisis' by their co-stars
  • How hard was it to write a believeable shrink in the 90s?
  • How exactly do you get precisely 4 gallons of water in a 5 gallon jug (we did the math)
  • If "Die Hard With A Vengeance" is the Best Film Ever?
