Isaac and Will both adore Die Hard, but it's fair to say that not all Die Hards are created equal. Taking that into consideration, they decided to pit them against each other in a Fave/Off: Die Hard (1988) vs Die Hard with a Vengeance (1995), followed by Die Hard 2 (1990) vs Live Free or Die Hard (2007). And please don't bring up the fifth one; it's triggering.
Warning: We spoil these movies. If you haven't seen them... well they're old, so spoilers are fair game.
