Bruce Willis in Die Hard

Bruce Willis was born on March 19, 1955 in Western Germany.  He worked as a bartender scoring small roles until his big break in the first Die Hard (1998).  Willis plays Officer John McClane, a New York detective who heads to L.A. to visit his wife for Christmas.  While waiting in his wife's office terrorists led by Hans Gruber (Alan Rickman) take over the building they are in, the Nakatomi Plaza.  The SWAT, police and FBI are unable to take this group down so the burden falls on one of our favourite bad-asses Bruce "Yippie Ki Yay Mother Fucker" Willis.

The "one-liner" really came into fame with three words: "I'll Be Back" put forth by probably the greatest action movie actor, Arnold Schwarzenegger, in Terminator (1984).  Four years later this movie is full of awesome one liners:

"Let's see you take this under advisement jerk weed" and "Geronimo mother fucker" (both before dropping a PC bomb down the elevator.
