TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

In the first Die Hard (1988), John McClane only had a few scripted one-liners. However, Bruce Willis ad-libbed many one-liners, and audiences liked them. So much so that in this sequel (and the next one), more gags were added, and Willis was told he could ad-lib as much as he saw fit.

The General is from Val Verde, the fictitious Latin-American country used in Commando (1985).

The film exceeded all expectations, outgrossing the original Die Hard (1988) by nearly double.

The scenes with Bruce Willis running through tunnels under the airport were filmed at a water treatment facility near Los Angeles. The facility has miles of underground tunnels, and was also used in Live Free or Die Hard (2007), doubling as the Woodlawn Social Security Administration building.

The scene where McClane climbs the ladder from the service tunnels up onto the runway and then nearly gets run over by Esperanza's plane was filmed from six(6) different locations: Granada Hills, California (McClane in the tunnel and climbing up the ladder)Los Angeles, California (Close-ups of Esperanza inside the plane's cockpit)Mojave Desert, California (Head-on view of plane in the sky on approach)Alpena, Michigan (Exterior shot of the grating door on the runway) - San Francisco, California (Rear shot of plane on approach with runway lights in the background)Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan (Plane after just landed rushing towards the screen) - Lake Tahoe, California (Plane rushing towards McClane in the foreground)Denver, Colorado (Plane rushing towards McClane as seen from behind the front landing gear).
