    The comedy in Die Hard sets it apart for me. Fill in the blanks type questions actually.

    Commando is great. So are the others mentioned for various reasons.

    Probably doing ourselves an injustice by picking holes in any of them.

    Commando is just far superior given that Arnie is far superior than Sly and Bruce.

    I'll give you Arnie over Sly (for combining comedy with action at least), but don't sleep on Bruce as an all-rounder.

    Plus Die Hard had Alan fucking Rickman!!!

    I always preferred Arnie to Sly, intentional or not he had great lines in his films, and he looks like a superhero. I don't see Willis as a head to head rival, he's smarter and funnier, a different animal altogether. Out of all those films from that era Die Hard has aged most gracefully imho. And I love Commando

    I like Die Hard but to me it’s not the classic others make out. I loved Bruce in Pulp Fiction way more.

    You know what I like best about this car? The price.

    We'll take Cook's car, he won't be needing it

    You know how I said I'd kill you last? I lied

    Where's Sully? I let him go

    Classic gold

    right now I'm very hungry

    If they're old enough, don't forget Terminator! He barely says anything, and has to act like a robot. Brilliant

    Favourite part of watching it was the boy realising that they were all going to die. He was super pissed.

    my favourite moment watching movies with the kids has been watching Monty Python's Holy Grail. When it just ended they were sooooo pissed it was hilarious.

    CF jnr watched commando when he was 8, much to my wife's disgust. I'll wait another year or so before unleashing T1

    That's a good age for Commando because everything is cartoon like.

    @antipodean wow, consider me enlightened. I always watch my action moves for the realism. Especially my 80s action movies.

    @mariner4life I'm not the one getting triggered because others are having a laugh at the movie.

    I did the first two Aliens with my lads. They loved them although they said they’re a notch below Star Wars, Indy and Bond. This may change with multiple viewings.

    Parker, Hudson, Hicks and Bishop got special mentions as awesome characters. Ripley was only ‘ok’.....my boys are such chauvinists.
