Does "Manners. Maketh. Man." counts?
I am always ashamed to admit it, but I have somehow overlooked Willis so far completly. I have not even seen Die Hard.
The first one is the only one you need to see.
"They've been erased."

I have actually a good reason to never have watched Die Hard. I watch movies always in their german version (where of course something from the oneliners goes away, but they are most the time still pretty amazing and I of course know the originals from the web)
Hot Fuzz was full of them.
Watch better films Gaf.
I am fine with the villains beeing german, that they are not in the german version is whats is bothering meWhy is that?
I noticed you said the same thing in your Godzilla thread. I don't want to act like a snob, there's certainly nothing wrong with watching dubbed movies, I still do it occasionally. But you're posting on GAF so you already have a decent handle of the english language and there's always a little bit of substance that gets lost in translation.
Anyway, the villains in Die Hard 2 are american, you can start there if you prefer. I understand being annoyed by german villains in Hollywood movies but I thought they handled them pretty well in Die Hard 1 & 3. They didn't feel like offensive caricatures, just badass euro villains.
4 is okay but forgettable. You can skip it. I've never seen 5 but it's pretty terrible from what I understand.
Darth Vader does them now see Rogue One

but in the german version from Die Hard, the german terrorists arent from germany, they are "europeans". They still have their clearly german names, but they arent from germany and this really turned me of on watching that movie. I know, its a bit silly, but still.
Also we dont have a good pack that includes the extended Cut of Die Hard 4 and does not have the fifth included.

From all actors in Hollywood, Willis is the one with the most amazing voiceactor, he is even loved by the people who hate german dubs: https://youtu.be/kzpTroO6ogs
I think I am gonna grab the Box with Part I - IV the next time I see it.
But in regards of the question with the dubs, its more that I am often, espescially with older movies very unhappy with the soundmix, the voices are often very quiet compared to the other sounds IMO.
Also, I just got used to their voices. I cant take Arnie or Sly seriously when they mumble around.
Because it was out of place. And awful. Vader acted like he was performing a stage play.He did that shit in the OT too people need to stop acting like that line was so out of place for Vader.

What does that even mean? He always had a dark humor and physical "style"... ah fuck it.
And by the logic of "people will bitch about anything" I counter with my "people will praise anything" card. Bam.I thought that part was awesome, and classic Vader
People will bitch about anything, I swear, smdh
For me there are a few movies that have managed to retain the classic feel while still being modern movies. The best of the bunch are Dredd and Mad Max, but something like John Wick is good as well. Shoot 'em up was also good when it came out, although that is a while ago.
Edit: and op, watch Die Hard.
Karl Urban in Dredd has some pretty deadpan one word lines.
"Admirable."
"Interesting."
"...Yeah."
Nope.Because it was out of place. And awful. Vader acted like he was performing a stage play.
And the like itself was way FORCED, if you get my drift.
