Whether it's coincidence or homage, Olympus Has Fallen contains a few allusions to the movie Trappola di cristallo (1988): the traitor who leads the North Koreans to the White House is ex-Secret Service agent Davey Forbes. Die Hard villain Hans Gruber mentions to Mr. Takagi that he read an article about his company's wealth on Forbes. In Olympus, the scene where Forbes finds Banning, and casually smokes a cigarette before trying to kill him, is similar to the Die Hard scene where McClane finds Hans in a storage area, and has a cigarette with him before Hans tries to kill him. Also, Banning plays a cat-and-mouse game with Kang in Olympus via radio, just like McClane plays a cat-and-mouse game with Hans in Die Hard via walkie talkie.
