"Die Hard" circa 1988


Bruce Willis circa 2013

Fans of the "Die Hard" series of movies can squeal "yippee-ki-yay" at AMC Southroads 20 on Wednesday, when a marathon of the movies in the franchise concludes with the new "A Good Day to Die Hard" as the finale.

A dozen hours of Bruce Willis as New York cop John McClane will blast off at noon Wednesday with 1988's "Die Hard," the classic action movie co-starring Alan Rickman as one of the best villains in this genre of films.

Following up is 1990's "Die Hard 2," 1995's "Die Hard With a Vengeance" and 2007's "Live Free or Die Hard."

These lead up to a 10 p.m. showing of "A Good Day to Die Hard," which finds McClane in Russia helping his CIA operative son to stop a nuclear-weapons threat.

Tickets are available at the AMC Southroads 20 box-office, 4923 E. 41st St., and online for this event, priced at $35 for five explosive films.

"Die Hard" movie posters and souvenir lanyards will be given to those attending while supplies last.

Members of the AMC Stubs program will receive $5 in credit added to their member cards for each event ticket purchased — up to four cards — if the passes are purchased in advance. The credit can be spent for concessions on that day only.

The movies in the "Die Hard" series are rated R with the exception of "Live Free or Die Hard," which is rated PG-13.

I See Movies for Free

“I was born a poor, black child” … not me, actually, but Steve Martin’s character in the “The Jerk.” That absurd opening line is just one of the absurd number of film facts, quotes and minutiae contained in movie critic Michael Smith’s brain, at his disposal to toss out on a moment’s notice. It’s a key requirement as Tulsa World film critic to know these things. Michael learned a few other life facts along the way (seven years as a Crystal’s Pizza & Spaghetti manager) before attempting journalism and joining the Tulsa World in 1996, where he’s covered everything from a school shooting in Fort Gibson to a tornado in Stroud to witnessing an execution. A little community theater coverage was sprinkled in there, too. Movies engender many of his happiest memories, from standing in line for “Star Wars” and “Grease” at the Southroads Cinema to the James Bond and Pink Panther movies that always premiered at the enormous Continental Theater.
