Yippee Kay Yay
no it’s not
you 'muricans are wierd
Yes, it is.
I used to think it was just a movie that happened during Christmas, but it wasn’t a Christmas movie. I changed my mind when it was pointed out that the movie wouldn’t have happened if it wasn’t Christmas. He was visiting his family for Christmas. It’s not a typical Christmas movie, but it is a Christmas movie.

I think its important to establish why it’s a Christmas movie. I consider it one not just because it’s Christmas time in the movie but because it’s heavily Christmas themed the entire movie. For this exact same reason I think other movies also fall into this category like gremlins and terrifier 3.
If the only thing a Christmas movie takes is being set on or around Christmas, Batman Returns and Eyes Wide Shut are Christmas movies. Oppenheimer has a Christmas scene, is that a Christmas movie too? Clearly there’s a line somewhere.
There are 2 kinds of people, those who say die hard is a Christmas movie, and those who are wrong.
Never understood where that came from. Definitely not a Christmas movie for me.
So is Gremlins.
Wrong. As I have said in a similar conversation:
I’m going to argue that Die Hard is NOT a Christmas movie. It’s simply a movie where the events within it, happen to take place around Christmas time.
Die Hard is to Christmas movies what Top Gun is to romance movies, or what Casablanca is to war movies. Just because it contains a thing, doesn’t mean it’s about said thing.
…melon farmer.
heck yeah, it’s a christmas film. the whole thing is based around a christmas party and is all about love
No, we all do not.
Not really.
Indeed. It’s perhaps the only Christmas movie.
Die Hard is awesome, but I’ve always liked The Ref too.
Absolutely. There can be zero disagreement on this.
Every scene in this movie is a work of art. It’s so rare for a movie to check as many boxes as this one does so perfectly. it has humor, a love story, action, Alan Rickman, a heist, and most of all Christmas!
Happy holidays everyone! Hoping you can all get together and have a few laughs with your loved ones.
Every movie that’s set during Christmas is a Christmas movie. I’m watching Eyes Wide Shut with my wife tonight
