Die Hard is an action movie that takes place during Christmas. Literally nothing that happens in the movie requires it to be Christmas. If Luke Skywalker wore a Santa hat for the entirety of the Empire Strikes Back, that wouldn't make it a Christmas movie. Tobey Maguire has Thanksgiving dinner with the Green Goblin in Raimi's Spider-Man and nobody says that's a Thanksgiving film.

Both take place during Christmas time, but I don't think either takes place on Christmas itself. Maybe Die Hard 2 takes place on Xmas Eve or ends on Xmas Eve, but that's it.

Jeb Stuart wrote Die Hard specifically with Christmas in mind, from holiday music to Christmas puns to references to miracles and calls it a Christmas movie
You may now concede

Nobody remembers Die Hard two because it gets completely out shadowed by 3.
>>
>>729320486
Spider Man has a singular scene set during Thanksgiving. Die Hard is entirely set during Christmas Eve and has a ton of nods to the season, from Christmas lights and decorations being everywhere, people explicitly pointing out the time of year, the joke Argyle makes at the very end, the party being the entire reason John is there in the first place...

I love how an ancient joke parroted on here since forever is now verboten and we just HAVE to oppose it because some faggot on reddit copied it from here. This board is such garbage anymore, I'm tired of this place being infested with people that use social media, this IS an obscure nerd enclave and you don't belong here if you disagree.

Blue Stinger for the Dreamcast is the ultimate Christmas game. Not only is it set during Christmas, but halfway through the story the characters are all paid thier Christmas bonus and you can backtrack to the bank to collect it. There is even a sequence where the protagonists have to get changed into uncontaminated clothing and all they have are Santa outfits.

Still Wakes The Deep is another strong contender (again set on Christmas day), but the Christmas theming kinda disappears after the game's big inciting incident.

This is a stupid argument honestly, because the film can be enjoyed any time of year, but it works just as well as a Christmas movie. Either way it's a masterpiece and is much more intelligent than modern action movies, so arguing about what genre it is instead of just enjoying the damn movie makes you look like an idiot.

TM1 sucks balls. TM2 is still the best of the series, though I will argue TMPS3 is the 2nd best game because while the level design is meh the gameplay is the tightest shit. Especially as the default controls made journos seethe despite them being highly tuned to be the best by a huge margin.

I saw it for the first time last Christmas and reading this thread is hyping me to watch it again.
II was good too, but slightly convoluted and over the top.
III is dogshit honestly, not only because of Samuel L Jackson going on about racial tensions crap, but the whole thing just sucked. The riddles were kind of intense but that's just about it. Everything is even MORE convoluted than the last movie. Also it's a waste of Jeremy Iron's talents.

Die Hard 1 & 2 are the only real Die Hard films.

The rest of them are just random action films staring Bruce Willis that they slapped the Die Hard label on. None of them were ever written to be a Die Hard sequel, including the second, but at least 2 felt like 1. None of rest of them feel like a Die Hard film. I especially dislike how 3, 4 and 5 shit all over John McClane. He's not supposed to be some luddite asshole that everyone hates. He's just a normal guy.

I liked that scene (no homo) because it's a homage to Apocalypse Now, my favorite film, and it perfectly sets up how much more of a batshit threat the new villain is compared to Hans Jobber. He downs a plane full of passengers just to make a point which is (obviously unrealistic) metal as fuck.
