For too long now there has been a mild debate around the movie Die Hard and whether or not it qualifies as a “Christmas movie” — that is, is it something to be watched every year for the Christmas holiday along with A Christmas Story, It’s A Wonderful Life, Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, and, oh, I don’t know, Home Alone? For a lot of young Gen-Xers and most Millenials, that answer seems to be one big YES.
This means that any movie with Christmas in it can be considered a “Christmas movie”.
