In Die Hard and Aliens, the protagonists are strong characters that are well rounded and likable. In a movie the audience has to want the lead character to be successful or much of the suspense is lost.
In Die Hard it was difficult to try and not be interested in the success of the main character. We got attached to John McClane, our old cowboy hero. He’s an average witty guy who was at the right place at the wrong time. He has a family who he’s trying to protect and win back. This makes watching him getting hurt and struggle feel so personal. We all pretty much would do anything to keep our family safe. We tend to protect our own as mammals.
The movie Aliens in general played with your heart strings. Aliens necessarily wasn’t an amazing
