Hans Gruber actually wasn’t supposed to die at the end of die hard, but Alan Rickman’s original reaction was to jump off the building and this inspired the filmmakers.
@reillymcwriting also, that scene, they told him they would drop him "on three" but they dropped him "on two" (or maybe "one") and that's his true reaction
I can relate to Carl's problems with his insurance adjusters. My experience was very much like his. Well, without the corpse landing on the windshield thing. That didn't happen.
Bruce Willis is a human who pushes the limits of his body and resourcefulness to survive. Seagal wants to be a deity, aiming for no one else to survive while avoiding pushing anything. So basically opposites😅
@@ThatsOneNiceKitty nah, Bruce Willis' spirit is inside the bear, and the whole movie is just the dream of the limo driver influenced by the whisperings of Bruce Willis
@@goodbyeseeyalaterunbreakable is one of my favourite movies and Bruce was so good in it. Whenever people say that he cant act or he is phoning it in, I watch that movie
Agreed. Rickman went on a bad guy streak, for me it was his character in Robin Hood, didn't c Die Hard till '92 (I was 5 in '88) but Hans Gruber 4 ever
That cowboy line at 12:34 is kinda funny because he got to play one (double emphasis on play) in Quigley Down Under. “Some men are born in the wrong century. I think I was born on the wrong continent.” That's twice he was on the wrong continent.
I've seen the other Die Hards but I've never seen this one in it's entirety. This Space Ice recap is probably the closest I've come to seeing the whole movie (I had no idea there was a twin brother of Hans Gruber for example)
@@caio3568 it’s just been one of those ongoing debates throughout the years but I’ve seen it elected on a few of those “Best Christmas Movies” countdown. Christmas season always brings “Die Hard” on TV! The Critical Drinker did one about this being Christmas I remember that.
@@raylopez99 oh wow usually, I’d say if you got through the second and enjoyed “die hard with vengeance” then the first Die Hard will definitely be a good one to catch. I wasn’t too much into Die Hard 2, the airport, and the whole scene just wasn’t as exciting as the first or 3rd to me.
One of the most consistently funny channels on UA-cam that never fails to give me at least one big belly laugh with every video. "Things go from bad to worse when his driver is a blind 12 year old" has to be the line of the year :)
imagine Space Ice telling his kids bedtime stories.. Space Ice :(in his epic voice) Finally...the idiot prince try putting the glass slipper on Cinderella aaand SON OF B*TCH!!! it fuck*n fits!
Never forget the night I saw this in theatre with high school best friend. We left the theatre PUMPED. This movie was a first of its kind back then, had never experienced action like that.
This is a JCVD fan club channel first and foremost. Then a degrader of Steven Seagull reputation, I would say if he didn't do it himself. Finally a Reviewer 80s and 90s action movies, which means Arnold and Stallone era. Almost forgot Niel Breene, who I never heard of until space Ice. Had to edit Forgot about Nicholas who is also an eccentric gem of 90s.
I can't count how many times I have watched this movie and I am always entertained by it. Props to everyone that made it, it's kinda perfect. Seriously.
I found this channel because it talks about movies I like but now I've reached a point where I watch the movies just to watch the Space Ice video afterwards.A Die Hard video is like a christmas present in septermber.
Couldn't agree more, seagals stuff is good when space ice covers it but is getting a bit samey, glad he's starting on the classics now, wouldn't mind some films like American ninjas, Delta force, Conan the librarian, masters of the universe etc , good ol' 80s cinema that only cared about entertainment and not social conditioning.
Watched this so many times. Don't know why I hand't spotted the moving bear before 😅 I like how it's actually funnier seeing this guy take the piss out of really good movies than really bad ones
The bear didn't move. The mirror is angled in a way that doesn't show the left side of the car. But the bear is still clearly near the right side of the car.
Great choice S.I. Classic action flick with Willis at the top of his game. At the same time it's sad to think about the condition B.W. is in these days. Seems like one of the good guys.
The first time I saw this movie it was the last day at school before Christmas holiday. It was this or playing board games. Everyone was too young to see it but even the Headmaster just wanted us quiet until home time, It was a good afternoon.
This might actually be your first and only Best Movie Ever that isn't hyperbole. Honestly this video is genius. The way Space Ice downplays the greatness of Die Hard while sarcastically praising it is another level.
I feel like the timeline of the “Winslowverse” as it were, Carl started in New York in 1984 and he saw what happened when he released the Ghostbusters from jail. He then came to LA to escape it all and you see how that turned out. Then he moved to Chicago where his biggest nemesis of all awaited him. Next up, connecting Snake Plissken to Captain Ron.
@@guilherme5094 The number one reason why it isn’t is because if it was people wouldn’t have to defend it so hard. It would be obvious. No one argues about other Christmas movies.
You know what Space Ice.. "This is what we like about you". "Your attention to detail "- Ace Ventura to Lt. Einhorn Aka "Ray Finkle"😂 So glad i discovered your channel about 2 months ago. I lol nonstop on most of your vids. Pure comedy gold 🥇
The scene when Hans falls was made by suspending him in air and putting a blue giant bag beneath him to serve as a blue screen, they told him they will release him after counting to 3 but instead they let him before that to capture a real reaction, he sure wasn't acting with that terrified face expression.
I just noticed this, had a really bad couple of days, but that's all behind me now after seeing this. You sir, know how to lift anyone's soul up. Bless you, great space ice

Hey I'm about to name a song about you. Don't be offended. It's going to my 3rd album
"..they get cocky and forget this is near the end of an 80's action movie where all buildings are required by law to blow the f*ck up."😂 so accurate 💯
I fucking died🤣🤣🤣🤣
I pretended to check the law books and this is 100% accurate!!!
Facts
0:04 sums it all up.
"Mega blockbuster hit movie" 😂
The real reason why Alan Rickman looked so terrified in that final scene is because they told him he had to go do a Segall movie next
😂😂😂
Hans Gruber actually wasn’t supposed to die at the end of die hard, but Alan Rickman’s original reaction was to jump off the building and this inspired the filmmakers.

Ha ha ha ha
@@WhippetRun I have heard that is true. Also that Rickman got real mad about it afterwards.
I'm never going to be able to watch Die Hard again without thinking of Carl Winslow's insurance problems. LOL
I can relate to Carl's problems with his insurance adjusters. My experience was very much like his. Well, without the corpse landing on the windshield thing. That didn't happen.
@@JohnnieWalkerDread After seeing this video it makes me think you haven't met enough Lakers fans yet.
@@EvertfromNederland I've met one. That's enough
Definitely a childhood classic.
I just didn't realize how much it was about basketball until now.
Yeah me too and the game version was Oresome!….anyways🤙

Bruce Willis is what Steven Seagal wishes to be
Bruce Willis is a human who pushes the limits of his body and resourcefulness to survive.
Seagal wants to be a deity, aiming for no one else to survive while avoiding pushing anything.
So basically opposites😅
You mean mentally, right?
The tragedy of Steven Seagal is that he is exactly what he wished to be. The ironic justice of Steven Seagal is that he got his desire.
Even in his now sad condition Willis is what Seagal wanted to be...
8:45 he shows up. He choreographed the whole thing from his chair.
The automatic bolt action sniper caught me off guard. This move is a classic.
Only Rickman could make saying "ho ho ho" sound sinister and cool.
Or an angry pimp
And Christopher Lee.
That's so true!!!
Officer Carl Winslow has huge jurisdiction across the USA. Best cop ever.
Finally! The true 'Best Movie Ever'. Thank you Space Ice!
I agree!
Die Hard 2 is great too!
@@ethanedwards7557and 3 (even though it's a bit different)
Agreed
@@ethanedwards7557 2 was a little too much of a copy paste. I actually like 3 the second best in the series.
"That's Willis's father's watch and you have no idea what he went through" I lol'd
Lmao for some reason that line went from one ear out the other until I read this. Fuckin genius
The watch from pulp fiction 😂
5 long years in that Hanoi pit of hell
"He died. Dysentery, gimme the watch..."
That watch was his birthright.
The best version of Willis for sure, it gets even better when you know he was dead from the beginning.
The limo driver speaks to him through the bear.
,,, ,,, what?
Stop smoking crack
@@ThatsOneNiceKitty nah, Bruce Willis' spirit is inside the bear, and the whole movie is just the dream of the limo driver influenced by the whisperings of Bruce Willis
@@juanjuan-pi3of Neil Breen reference.
Truthfully, I can't watch any new movies with Bruce without feeling sad.
Because of his brain problem right?
@@Jonathantheslay yes. When I come across trailers for his new movies, I would instantly get sad. Everything he did for us over the years.
Well, I got some good news for you........
@@goodbyeseeyalaterunbreakable is one of my favourite movies and Bruce was so good in it. Whenever people say that he cant act or he is phoning it in, I watch that movie

Alan Rickman as Hans Gruber was the best action movie Villain ever
Agreed. Rickman went on a bad guy streak, for me it was his character in Robin Hood, didn't c Die Hard till '92 (I was 5 in '88) but Hans Gruber 4 ever
Facts!
Maan I was just about to write this. No one's ever done it better
And to think, Sam neill very nearly played that part……
That cowboy line at 12:34 is kinda funny because he got to play one (double emphasis on play) in Quigley Down Under.
“Some men are born in the wrong century. I think I was born on the wrong continent.”
That's twice he was on the wrong continent.
He could slowly walk over glass faster than segal can chase him 😂 savage
It’s not a space ice video without him roasting Steven Seagal
I always play a game with myself of trying to guess how Seagal will be worked into each non Seagal movie before watching
@@Stuck_In_The_Ice_BoxI had the same thoughts too 💀
He got like 53 movies and so forth
In that regard I missed the JCvD dancing scene
“I really like those sequin shirts.” Everyone knows that’s the best line of the movie
While I agree that this is one of the best lines in the movie, I am a little disappointed that "Yippe Kiyay Motherfucker" didn't even get a mention.
Is he allowed to edit the movie like that. What's next? dancing Jean Claude Van Damme?
Fuck yeah!
This is most definitely a Christmas movie, everyone’s gotta love “Die Hard”. Alan Rickman as the classically educated Hans Gruber was fantastic.
I've seen the other Die Hards but I've never seen this one in it's entirety. This Space Ice recap is probably the closest I've come to seeing the whole movie (I had no idea there was a twin brother of Hans Gruber for example)
Watch Die Hard, now, what are you waiting for, it is, legit, best x-mas movie, ever.@@raylopez99
From where is that reference? I know a show elected Die Hard as a true christmas movie but I can't remember which show was that.

@@brucewillis542belly laughs 💯 😂
Not as good as outrunning Seagal by walking carefully over broken glass
Honestly, what can you say about this movie that hasn't been said so many times before? Just fantastic all the way through.
It's literally flawless
“That was awesome.” +Christopher Farley
Alan Rickman as Hans Gruber is the protagonist while the limo driver is Keyser Söze.
The joke about building structure damage and being near Seagal's weight caught me so much by surprise - you man are a genius, I salute you!
I will always like a video that gives respect to the man, the myth, the LEGEND...Carl Winslow
It's Carl motherfucking Winslow!
Seagal is massively underrated in this movie. He's so stealth I didn't even notice it was him until you pointed it out.
He's definitely massive
He used a body double
you mean a body triple
Possibly just once met the requirements of being a Ninja... ah no, that was Micheal Dudikof.
"Slides like a greased penguin"
Cutting him off while asking for the tip was genius 😂
"Just when he thinks it can't get any worse, Steven Fucking Seagal shows up." (Clip of guy firing blind around a corner).
Perfect.
That watch reference is so damn good.
imagine Space Ice telling his kids bedtime stories..
Space Ice :(in his epic voice) Finally...the idiot prince try putting the glass slipper on Cinderella aaand SON OF B*TCH!!! it fuck*n fits!
Awesome.
Yeah, that sounds about right!!😂😂
"That's what he gets for thinking he's allowed to have fun" 😂😂🤣🤣
Right, lol 😆
“ he follows the sound of incessant nagging, to find his wife” 😂
this was so good lol
Thank you Space Ice for curing my depression with your videos. Never stop doing this. Thank you for your style Sir
Never give up!
Prayers stay peaceful and strong.
He cured my stage 69 fart cancer. The man is a miracle-worker!
Watch pitch meeting also.
Death is for pussies! 💀
Never forget the night I saw this in theatre with high school best friend. We left the theatre PUMPED. This movie was a first of its kind back then, had never experienced action like that.

Had to edit
Forgot about Nicholas who is also an eccentric gem of 90s.
*Every Christmas I prepare a nice meal, grab a bottle of red wine and enjoy this awesome movie, alone with my misery.*
Sometimes being alone is better than being with the wrong person or people
*Aaaaand that's why I'm alone.*
This is great
Might do the same this Christmas
i wanted this as a rerun at the local theatre.
i was alone.
I can't count how many times I have watched this movie and I am always entertained by it.
Props to everyone that made it, it's kinda perfect. Seriously.
"Just remember that when you sign for the..."
Closing the door in Argyle's face 🤣🤣
"It wasn't Gary Cooper either! What the f*** is going on here" 😂😂😂😂 Dahmer😂😂😂

I found this channel because it talks about movies I like but now I've reached a point where I watch the movies just to watch the Space Ice video afterwards.A Die Hard video is like a christmas present in septermber.
This cut is almost as perfect as the movie itself. Space Ice is King.
i dont know about that but SI is the shit lol
@@lowlowseesee You're right. Die Hard is more perfect.
All it needed was Seagull as a baddy mumbling the lines and JCVD as a cameo good/bad guy...😂😂
Knocked it out of the park with this one absolutely hilarious. Didn't know that Seagal would be making an appearance. Keep up the good work.
I love it when he shuts the limo door on the blind boy.
Glad to see you're branching out from bad Seagal action flicks into awesome Christmas movies.
But no matter how far we stray from Segal, he always comes waddling back.
This IS a Seagal movie. Did you not watch the video?
Couldn't agree more, seagals stuff is good when space ice covers it but is getting a bit samey, glad he's starting on the classics now, wouldn't mind some films like American ninjas, Delta force, Conan the librarian, masters of the universe etc , good ol' 80s cinema that only cared about entertainment and not social conditioning.

I laughed so hard
It takes genius to work in references to Pulp Fiction, Ghostbusters, The Breakfast Club, Fabio and Police Academy.
Lol
And missed the opportunity to reference the sixth sense, but that's been corrected here in the comments above:)
You missed Memento, Family Matters, and Oppenheimer 😂

3:52 Now that's how you make a reference. Just an amazing way to talk about the very first video of yours. Well done, Space Ice
I’m 100% sure some of the actors in these movies see your videos and love them.
Didn't know there was a Seagal in die hard, everyday I learn something new 😊
Bruce Willies with hair hits different.
Now this, this makes me smile.
The EPA guy lol! And how did nobody notice Huey Lewis with the Lakers fans?
As a Lakers fan this video fucking killed me 😂 good work!
Lol. Great play on words.
As a Rockets fan, at least you would have made a two hour movie out of it.

I've been asking for this for months now. I'm so glad you answered my prayers. A thousand times Thank you!! 🙏
Space Ice's vendetta against Steve Seagal is so deep that he gotta roasts him even when he's not there.
"Remember that when you sign the-" *door slam*. Sometimes it's the little things that hit the hardest!
“Like a goose to the face”… damn that was good. I can’t believe someone remembered that lololol
"He followed the sound of incessant nagging."😂.
You know what Space Ice.. "This is what we like about you". "Your attention to detail "- Ace Ventura to Lt. Einhorn Aka "Ray Finkle"😂 So glad i discovered your channel about 2 months ago. I lol nonstop on most of your vids. Pure comedy gold 🥇
Love how he roasts Steve Seagal, even though he isn't in this movie. Classic Space Ice.
Funniest line in this video: “Gary Cooper didn’t walk off with John Wayne either.” Comedic brilliance.
"The limo driver is a blind 12 year old "😂😂😂 comedy gold!
The hands down best commentary on the hands down best Christmas movie ever
Cant wait till Seagal makes his own Christmas movie.
oh man, the translation was so perfect. The jokes and editing are so tight now. Fantastic job as always.
This really is a mega-blockbuster hit movie.
0:45 😂😂😂😂😂😂 legendary take, legendary movie RIP Alan Rickman
Lol "....for disrespecting Bill Murray". Great one.
Glad to see that you're expanding into actually decent movies. Your sarcasm is second to none sir!
0:17 not the first time Ron DeSantis offering some wise tips while on plane. He went gun blazing previously.
“He YOLOs it at the side of the building.” Simply brilliant
Not even a Bruce Willis fan but Die Hard is the GOAT action movie, It only when downhill from there
3:23 pulling the fire alarm like *a Congressman
Haha we watched Die Hard last night and I yelled “Carl Winslow!” when VelJohnson appeared. I can’t help it. I do it every year.
"They get desperate and send Jeffrey Dahmer" 🤣
The funniest part😆😂🤣
Your channel is awesome and so are you! Liked and subscribed brother.
I would to see you do Tango & Cash and the Last Boy Scout ❤
Wow, Christmas came early. Thanks for doing this ' best movie ever ', literally. I'm so happy.
I'm glad Winslow finally got a chance to use his gun after all those years, and didn't even once shoot himself in the arse
The scene when Hans falls was made by suspending him in air and putting a blue giant bag beneath him to serve as a blue screen, they told him they will release him after counting to 3 but instead they let him before that to capture a real reaction, he sure wasn't acting with that terrified face expression.
" they got desperate and sent Jeffrey Dahmer." Killed me! He looks and dresses like JD fr
the Jeffrey dahmer part just killed me 😂😂😂😂
It's not the first time Dahmer killed someone
8:45 "Steven fing Seagal shows up"
Not gonna lie, that one took me a while
The bolt action rifle shooting 600 rounds per minute got me.😂
The Steven Seagal reference didn't disappoint.
Best Christmas movie of all time.
As a die hard laker fan, u made my day 😆
I remember seeing this as a kid and being more hyped about Reginald VelJohnson (Carl Winslow) showing up than anything else in the movie.
I just noticed this, had a really bad couple of days, but that's all behind me now after seeing this. You sir, know how to lift anyone's soul up. Bless you, great space ice
