He doesn’t get enough credit for his Die Hard role. It was groundbreaking. He was the first to portray a charismatic villain that has been copied ad nauseam since. Before that role, every villain in feature films was just a one dimensional moustache twirler. He brought wit and style and delivered perfect one liners that made you want to root for him.
Claim : "Before that role, every villain in feature films was just a one dimensional moustache twirler" Reality : Vito Corleone 1972 The Godfather movie, Darth Vader from 1977 Star Wars movie, Dr Hans Reinhardt 1979 The Black Hole movie, Jack from 1980 The Shining movie, Roy Batty from the 1982 Blade Runner movie, Freddy Kruger 1984 Nightmare on Elmstreet movie, Darkness from the 1985 Legend movie, Pinhead from 1987 Hellraiser movie, Thulsa Doom 1982 Conan The Barbarian, alone these villains prove that you are wrong on your 1989 Hand Gruber from Die Hard claim.
That being said hes literally the coolest villain to date non has topped his ice cold arrogant yet charming demeanor in die hard this movie will always be one of my faves not only for the obvious reasons but me and my dad use to watch it least a couple times a year.......
@@calebmclean716 absolutely agree, none since has carried his cool calm and intellect, first time I really appreciated acting as a craft rather than glorified modelling
"effecT, believe iT or noT I am noT in iT To show off". My mother loves Mr Rickman because nobody pronounced their 'T's as well as he. What a guy... he even made the word 'iT" sound threatening! RIP the man the legend.
something about this man, I’ll never be to get him off my mind. it hurts and kills so painful to think he’s not here living with us anymore. i can’t explain how much Alan means to me and how much I need him back. I hope whatever he’s doing in the afterlife, that he is happy and not ill.
He was such perfection in everything he did. I don’t think I’ve ever been as instantly captivated by another human being as I was with Alan. I was fortunate to meet him twice- it was like the world stopped spinning for a few moments and he was the only person who existed. What a gorgeous human being.
I vividly remember early Alan Rickman movies as well as his final movies. No matter how few scenes he was in, no matter how few lines he had, the man had this uncanny ability to steal a movie. I remember reading about Kevin Costner's "Robin Hood Prince of Thieves" where the films editors, including Costner of course, cut several of Rickman's scenes & dialog out of the finished movie for fear of him overshadowing the star. Anyone who's seen the movie agrees he stole the movie anyway. Alan Sidney Patrick Rickman {February 21, 1946 - January 14, 2016}, came to us from down Acton way, West London. Known for his languid tone and delivery, his signature sound was the result of a speech impediment when he could not move his lower jaw properly as a child. Rickman studied at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts. He never shirked his duty, and never failed to steal a play or movie. We shall never see his likes again.......and now his play has ended. RIP Mr.Rickman, thank you.
Guys, I did fall in love with him... not working with him , not ever seeing him in person, ( i would've been thrilled to see him on stage) , me not being a native english speaker...and even after he's not ( sadly!)in this world anymore Im a woman still admiring his talent,voice,gestures and manly personality...Always!
@Dwayne Dibley Karl understood fine, but he was perplexed as to why Hans was giving him such a bizarre order. So Hans repeats it with conviction in English, and off they went. A rather clever plot device to translate the order for those that aren't German 😂
Him falling to his death in Diehard, he knew he was going to fall but they wanted genuine shock, so they dropped him before he expected it to happen, and thats how they got that shot
He was great in everything I ever saw him in… especially liked his role in Sense and Sensibility, very different from Hans Gruber… Also the January Man… Galaxy Quest… On and on…

His voice never changed.
And he has also a sexy voice..
He must’ve sounded like that as a six year old.
that's a good thing
"you know that the audience will cheer when you die.."
No Alan, no they didn't
Yes, they did. I saw it in theaters in 1988. The audience cheered!
@@will_it_work think you're missing the point, when Alan rickman died noone cheered

One of the greatest actors of all time.
Such a classy villain.
I will allways remember him as Hans Gruber.
Sheriff of Nottingham, professor snape, galaxy quest, and die hard to name a few oh yeah he also played the metatron in dogma...nice carreer

That's Drama School for you.
That haircut is priceless. Damn I miss the 80s!
@Constantine Soteriou He looks like a kookookajoo band member, love it.
Best decade ever look at the movies and music. Plus I was skinny back then and almost good looking 😀
@@adamr9720 Not for me, but I respect your opinion as we all have them.

ALAN Rickman is NOT dead!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He CAN'T BE, because I LITERALLY CANNOT live in a world without him in it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The best villain character player ever.
I love him
He will be missed for a long time.
After being Severus Snape for 10 years, he will be remembered ALWAYS!
RIP Alan..
Does someone know what his beardstyle from Die hard is called?
Epic movie and casting in a time when film making had no cgi to turn to..
Ugh I miss him.
