    If you removed all the killing and the terrorists - Die Hard is basically a Hallmark movie. Estranged blue collar husband flies across the country to share Christmas with corporate executive wife and ends up re-kindling the romance and she falls in love with him all over again. C'mon. It's a Christmas movie.

    I said this the other day on a different video but I'll say it again here: to me, the only requirement to be a Christmas movie is that the events of the movie wouldn't happen if Christmas wasn't involved. The only reason John Maclane was going to LA was to see his estranged wife and children for Christmas, therefore Christmas is essential to the plot. By this logic, Die Hard is a Christmas movie.

    My personal favorite Christmas film is The Lion in Winter. Full of family fights.

    Really respect Charlie for the Die Hard take. Gotta be brave to bust that one out and he's completely right.

    I agree with Charlie, Die Hard is a Christmas movie and I’ll die on this hill.

      Tastes like Michelob Ultra after you drop it in the lake and gets a buncha lake water in it.
      You bet i'm still gonna drink it, but I won't be happy about it.
