Like the title says, it ain't a Christmas movie, it is a crime/action film where the crime story arc just happens to take place during the Christmas holiday season. Please feel free to discuss and offer arguments for or against my statement via intelligent and respectful dialogue using reason and logic. Thank you for your time GD, I have no doubt that this community's high moral standards will keep this thread from becoming a shit show of name calling and internet posturing.

There is a Christmas party, The phrase "Ho Ho Ho" is spoken, and a Christmas carol is sung by a prominent supporting actor. Christmas movie.

I dont know who disgusts me more:

People who disown their children for being gay, or people who think Die Hard ISNT a Christmas movie!


Just kidding, it’s the shitty parents.
But, it’s a close call.

Definitely a Christmas movie. God Bless the Nakatomi Plaza veterans!

A "Christmas movie" is a movie set during Christmas that features a redemption arc.

I'm not sure you can do much better than Die Hard.

Ho ho ho motherfucker.

Not only is Die Hard a Christmas movie, for the reasons stated above; so is Lethal Weapon which depicts the difficulty of selecting and purchasing the right tree, the trials of getting the family all in one place and the importance of keeping track of the date when shopping.

Die Hard literally has a Christmas miracle, which is explicitly stated as such. It also features “snow” in Los Angeles (the negotiable bearer bonds).

Definitely a Christmas movie. It takes place during/around Christmas, therefore it's a Christmas movie. Christmas movies can have sub-genres to help classify them. There are Christmas comedies like Home Alone, Christmas musicals like White Christmas, and Christmas Action-thrillers like Die Hard.

Your argument doesn't hold much water, when you look at the dialogue of the movie though. Individual states the party is in actuality for a sales/deal/contract that was struck and had nothing to do with Christmas. It merely fell on that time/date, so they figured "What the hell" and called it a Christmas party.

Party literally could have been at any other time of the year.

And while we're at it, so is Gremlins which is very much an equal to the masterpiece Die Hard.

Not only is it one of the best Xmas movies, it has a cool Xmas tree ornament. You can even make your own out of a that picture from the movie and an empty packet of cigarettes.

Christmas eve, John flys out to LA to spend Christmas with his family. He asks for Christmas music in the limo. He meets his wife at her company's party where everyone is clearly celebrating Christmas. The bad guys make jokes about Christmas. There are Christmas themes throughout, ho ho ho, holiday tape, Christmas miracle, etc. Sound track includes Winter Wonderland, Ode to Joy, Let it Snow, Christmas in Hollis, Jingle Bells. Good triumphs over evil as the hero saves everyone while repairing and reuniting his family in a Christmas miracle.

So pack that in your yule pipe and smoke it.
