Bruce Willis stars as the legendary John McClane in the Die Hard franchise, cementing the New York City cop as one of the most beloved action heroes in film history.

Die Hard Film Synopsis
Facing Christmas 3,000 miles from his estranged wife and two children, New York policeman John McClane (Bruce Willis) flies to Los Angeles bearing presents and hoping to patch up his marriage. Stylish and cool Hans Gruber (Alan Rickman) is in Los Angeles as well for the holiday season, but he's not there to give out presents. He's there to take: more than $600 million in negotiable bearer bonds from the multinational Nakatomi Corporation, where McClane's wife Holly (Bonnie Bedelia) is an executive. When the takeover becomes hostile, it's up to John McClane to take on the terrorists with all the grit and determination he can muster--but not without a sense of humor.

Die Hard 2 Film Synopsis
John McClane is forced to battle mercenaries who seize control of an airport's communications and threaten to cause plane crashes if their demands are not met.

Die Hard with a Vengeance Film Synopsis
Superstar Bruce Willis takes nonstop action and narrow escapes to the ultimate extreme in Die Hard with a Vengeance! Beleaguered NYC Detective John McClane faces his worst day yet when a new foe (Jeremy Irons) wreaks havoc in downtown Manhattan - then threatens more devastation if his demands aren't met! Caught in a sadistic game of hide-and-seek, McClane and an unlikely hero (Samuel L. Jackson) race against time to avert more lethal mayhem.

THE PINK PANTHER: MASTERPIECE COLLECTION (1963-1978)
Celebrate a legacy of laughter and style with the gold — and pink! — standard among movie comedy series. This limited-edition boxed set holds the crown jewels: all five original Pink Panther classics, brilliantly directed by Blake Edwards and starring the legendary Peter Sellers as the relentless yet ridiculous Inspector Jacques Clouseau. First, The Pink Panther sparkles with a fabulous diamond luring police and criminals on a chase caper across Europe. The second movie, A Shot in the Dark, finds Clouseau up to his chapeau in a murder mystery…and falling head over heels for prime suspect Maria! The Return of the Pink Panther sets the Inspector off on a museum-robbery investigation and causing cascading chaos; its sequel The Pink Panther Strikes Again dizzyingly spins and spans the globe when Clouseau’s insane former boss Dreyfus plots his demise. And Revenge of the Pink Panther puts the great detective “under the covers” in outrageous disguises en route to a Hong Kong rendezvous!
