Die Hard

saw this at the grand cinema in tacoma in a completely sold out theater. i think this might be the greatest movie of all time??? so many iconic scenes, lines, performances, etc. if I had to choose one scene, it would be the part when hans throws on an accent. blew my mind the first time i saw it. it’s such a funny scene, but the possibilities of how it could play out make it so intense. the theater definitely added to the overall experience though. they were showcasing local artists and I bought a print that is basically die hard in the style of it’s a wonderful life. framing that for sure. outside the theater they had these little handmade buttons with iconic scenes from the movie. trivia was played beforehand too which was exciting. all throughout the movie the audience was so enthusiastic about every joke and every iconic scene.  idk man, i feel like talks of netflix destroying the movie the theater have kinda died down, but this is what’s at stake. this communal experience from a local nonprofit theater that supports local artists, explicitly welcomes everyone inside, and offers the chance to experience a holiday classic on the big screen.  just the biggest possible shoutout to the grand cinema in tacoma, wa. you’re quickly becoming my favorite and that will only be solidified when i get to see little shop of horrors next month.
