It would be hard to go back and recapture the magic and intensity of the original Die Hard. Alan Richman owned every scene he was in. The way he walked in, took control, and slowly counted before shooting Mr. Nokitomi, or whatever (been a long time since I watched it again) and calmly stating we'll do it the hard way. I also like the scene where the cokehead guy thought he was going to handle Hans and was shot in the face. Even the other bad guys were great, like the blond, long haired german guy who freaked out when his brother was killed, and Mrs. Mclain/Genero knew John was still alive, cuz only John can piss somebody off that bad! Every minute of that movie you were hoping Mclain would get out alive. He, like the hostages, had no where else to go, so he had to fight to live. That kind of suspense hasn't been in any of the other films, even though I like them all and enjoy them.
My favourite line has to be, "I am an exceptionally good thief my dear. And since I'm moving up to kidnapping, you should be a little more polite!"

"How do you use this thing?"
"What, you've never fired one before?"
