It refers to the saying, "Old habits die hard", which roughly means, the older the habit, the harder it is to break it. This refers to Officer John McClane's penchant for getting himself into circumstances that are way over his head. It turns this familiar saying into a play on words because of how difficult it is for the bad guys to kill him. They may cause him serious injury, but it is hard for them to kill him. The "Die Harder" (part 2)title announces the amplified violence in the sequel, and "Die Hard with a Vengeance" (part 3) refers to the theme of revenge. Another part of the title is that the word "Die-hard" means devoted and willing to press on for. In the movies John, be it protecting his wife or defending the country, he will continue until he takes the bad guys down
