Die Hard (1988) sees New York detective John McClane head to LA and get embroiled in a terrorist bank heist at Nakatomi Plaza, orchestrated by the terrifying Hans Gruber (Alan Rickman) at the most wonderful time of the year.
Yippy-Ki-Yay, Father Christmas!
Die Hard 2 (1990) brings McClane to Washington at Christmas waiting for his wife’s plane to land. When traffic control goes into red alert meltdown – and he is inexplicably caught in the middle of the action – he must race against the clock to thwart a dastardly terrorrist plot to release formidable extradited General Ramon Esperanza (Franco Nero).
