yes, next question?
The fact that this question comes up every year, on every forum and discussion group that is guy-oriented, shows just how important the topic is. And of course I have to read every comment in the threads every year. I hope there is never a clear resolution as the question itself provides as much entertainment as the movie.
I come down on the side that DH is a Christmas movie. To those who say it's just a movie set at Christmas time, I'd have to point out that's the case with every Christmas movie.
Ohhhh Say it aint Soooooo. All the movies focused on Santa are christmas movies. All the movies focused on Rudolph are Christmas movies. And "You'll Shoot Your Eye Out" is most definitely a Christmas Movie.Originally Posted by BamaNapper

It depends on your orientation, mine, as an old demolition man, is sort of eschewed toward, the office chair down the elevator shaft, with plastic, very nice Christmas present. Created a whole new need for screen doors…

Exactly! A movie focused on Santa, elves, reindeer, or Christmas itself is a Christmas movie. A movie that is set around Christmas time is NOT a Christmas movie.
Could Die Hard have been written so that he was attending a Halloween party, or some other random office party, when terrorists attack and the movie still be as good and have the same flavor? Absolutely.
One of my favorite movies is Just Friends in which the main character spends Christmas back in his hometown and is reunited with his high school sweetheart. I don't consider it a Christmas movie. Nor do I consider The Shining a Christmas movie.

Die Hard is THEE Christmas movie.
What other movie features a ballet dancer, more accustomed to the nutcracker, as a psycho killer terrorist? That's acting
Going off of the standard set by those who swear Die Hard is a Christmas movie because it happens to take place around Christmas time, I offer the following list of my favorite top ten Christmas movies...
1. Trading Places
2. Better Off Dead
3. The Godfather
4. LA Confidential
5. Ironman 3
6. Ghostbusters
7. Rocky
8. The Philadelphia Experiment
9. Cast Away
10. Batman Returns

I never thought of Better off dead as a christmas movie but it was funny that the mom gave everyone tv dinners for christmas gifts cause she was such a rotten cook.
Yippie-Ki-Yay, XxxxxxXxxxxx it is!
The answer is simple
There two kind of people in this world
Those who think diehard is a Christmas movie
And those who are wrong
Die Hard was released on July 15, 1988. Christmas movies need to be released after Halloween, at a minimum, to be considered as a Christmas movie.

Gunning people down while dressed as some crappy movie monster wouldnt work at all... wouldnt work wth the plot synopsis of the film either.
And when your stuck in a big building of idiots with that rappy "christmas music" over head, who DOESNT wanna play die hard.
11. Lethal Weapon.
