The glass window scene in Die Hard is laughable for one reason - you've got Hans and the blond German terrorist shooting at Willis, and Hans tells the other guy, in German, to shoot out the glass, and apparently the German doesn't understand so he repeats in English! I'm not sure what they were trying to do there."Schiesst dem Fenster" :) That part cracked me up because I was taking German at the time and even I understood what he was saying. I interpreted it as meaning those other guys weren't really German like Hans was, just hired mercenaries. When they first came in the building the terrorists were pretending to discuss a Lakers game, which made me think at least some of them were American.

Yes, the third was "Die Harder" and costarred Samuel Jackson.
Heck, even I picked up on the german and I'm linguistically challenged. The terrorist he was talking to was one of the definitely German ones, though... you're right, some were Americans.
