Quotes
Mischa:
Front desk.
Federal Reserve Guard #2:
Yes, call the police, get your ass down here right now! I'm under attack!
Mischa:
Hey, just relax mate, maybe you'll live through this.
Simon Gruber:
I think he's dead, my dear.
Goofs
When the Mercedes rolls, it is possible to see on the upper right hand side of the screen the wire which pulls the car over.
Alternate Versions
TV version aired on FX (as of May 2002) removes a few more elements: the blood in the elevator and when the guard is knifed are missing, all the language is filtered, the placard reads 'I Hate People', while also missing are two catch phrases--Zeus: "Are you aiming for these people?" McClane: "No! Well, maybe that mime..." and where McClane asks Zeus if the car has anti-lock brakes before pulling the fuses (in this version he simply cranks the car hard and it turns hard, sliding backward).
