 What's up nerds? It's Dres and I'm at Fox Plaza. Wait, no this is Nakatomi Plaza. It is the 30th anniversary of Die Hard and we are here in LA right in front of the building where it was shot. I am so excited but you know who's more excited? Ryan. Let's jump to Ryan now and he can tell you all about his favorite movie of all time. Let's go! Hey guys, so Ryan here. So we are in front of Fox Plaza, also Nakatomi Plaza. This is where Die Hard was shot back in 1988 which is incredible. It's been 30 years since that movie's come out. I can't remember it actually coming into cinemas but I do remember watching it on VHS. This movie was one of the biggest action movies of all time and still to this day is still one of the biggest movies of all time. It started off Bruce Willis's career. For that he was only in moonlighting and at that point back in that day no one really saw Bruce Willis being action star that he could be that we are known for now. Everyone expected him to just be this comedy actor doing a few TV shows here and there but then all of a sudden he was cast in Die Hard which was also at the time meant to be kind of like a B-grade action film but it blew up to probably be one of the biggest action movies of all time and no one ever expected it to happen. So much rumors and trivia that you could find out about this movie but one of the things that I find which is one of the biggest rumors and misled facts about this film well it's not a fact is that the film is meant to be the sequel to Commando but it's not true. Alice Walsenek had read the script at one point and had interest in starring in it but the director John McTinnon wanted an every man he wanted a person that could be the cop the husband and not be backed by the muscles and the you know Rambo-esque style of an action here he wanted to be an every man which is something that didn't stay on in the rest of the films the second he started being no more invincible third movie was next to you know Godlike and by the fourth film it was you can't kill him unless I'm going to talk about the fifth film like it exists. This building is pretty much to a tee exactly like it was back in 1988 the marble inside is all the same if you look through the the lift area you'll see that almost exactly to a tee that nothing has changed the building exterior itself it's all exactly the same as how you remember it in the movie which is unbelievable because if you're in LA you can come down to here to Century City and see it you can drive by it's very hard to park we found out but if you can park over at the Beverly you can come down here and check it all out it is unreal the second you get in here you'll know what I'm talking about it's like you are part of the diehard film the road that we're behind us right now you know the tanks the SWAT vehicle has run up through here all the police vehicles were sitting in front of us it's on in front of the building over here the news vans everything that you remember and also the cool another cool thing is it's a little bit dodgy but if you want to do it you can I don't recommend we did it secretly but let's talk about that roll up through the the main lobby area behind us and you can see that the entrance is almost exactly the same how it was in the movie where you know our rolled up in the police van and then Bruce Willis rolled up on the limo everything is the same you won't you'll be blown away I highly recommend coming down here checking this out but anyway diehard the 30th anniversary 30 years since this movie's come out I can't believe it I'm Ryan and until next time catch you nerds at the movies or an anniversary for diehard
