I still cannot believe that the full title for the home release of that movie was Die Hard 2: Die Harder.

That's what made the late 80s/early 90s cool. Nothing had to make sense, it just had to sound cool to 7 year old kids, and executives coked out of their gourds - combining to make the unlikeliest demographic.

Memphis Design was also popular in the 80s-90s, and is sometimes described as Bauhaus meets Fisher-Price. I wonder if there's any coincidence there.

What would you have called it? Die Less Hard?

[–] RobertOwnageJunior@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago

'Die harder too, also.'

[–] MossyFeathers@pawb.social 7 points 11 months ago (2 children)

No. Probably something that sounds even sillier tbh, like "Die Hard 2: the harder they fall the harder they die"
