Hans Gruber (character) → Hans Gruber (Die Hard) – Standardize fictional element disambiguation, even in the absence of other characters with the name. I would have done this unilaterally, but that conflicted with an existing redirect. –LaundryPizza03 (d c̄) 14:34, 22 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Move to Hans Gruber. I'm always a bit apprehensive when making fictional characters primary ahead of real people, but with 99% of pageviews, the Die Hard character meets the criteria. 162 etc. (talk) 18:10, 22 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Move to Hans Gruber The fact that the film is over 34 years demonstrates that the domination in page views for this character is not due flash in a pan notoriety that will quickly vanish.--65.92.162.81 (talk) 23:44, 22 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Move to Hans Gruber – Pageviews + WP:Long-term significance are aligned. Favonian (talk) 16:37, 29 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

East or West German?

In the first movie, his organisation is called "West German Liberation Movement" (or something like this), but in Die Hard 3 it is revealed his brother was a Stasi guy. So Hans is actually a Stasi guy too, disguising himself as West German? --2A02:560:5478:7500:3100:A4D2:97D3:A48B (talk) 17:25, 30 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps I'm overthinking this but I don't think he was really German, i.e. the info on him could have been bogus. The reason is he yells "Schiess den Fenster" at Karl, which is nonsensical, and Karl doesn't understand him until he rephrases into English and says "shot the glass". 2404:4408:8A64:E300:0:0:0:7 (talk) 03:44, 25 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
