If Die Hard is a Christmas movie then so is Die Hard 2. Yet the sequel never gets brought into this debate by either side 🤔
- I still cannot believe that the full title for the home release of that movie was Die Hard 2: Die Harder.
  
  That's what made the late 80s/early 90s cool. Nothing had to make sense, it just had to sound cool to 7 year old kids, and executives coked out of their gourds - combining to make the unlikeliest demographic.
  
  What would you have called it? Die Less Hard?
- Die Hard 2 is great, and it has O'Brien in it! (Oh wait, I'm not in Risa right now)
  
  I honestly never watched Die Hard, but a movie that seems to be about suffering with O'Brien, well it's a match
  
  You kidding me? Lemmy is Risa now.
What Christmas movie comes out July 15?
- It's brilliant. There's no competition in July.
- Just in time for Christmas in July.
  
  "Yeah, you know something... Vermont should be beautiful that time of year, with all that snow."
  -White Christmas
- I am sure you can check the ol' Hallmark Channel lineup
First or Second council of Nicea?
- They were in agreement
If only clemenceau had accepted the Turkish proposal to codify its Christmas movie status in the 1919 Paris agreement, could have prevented a lot of violence smh
Hardware (1990) is also a Christmas movie, as it takes place on Christmas eve https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wV-qegEKMQw

The Long Kiss Goodnight is a Christmas movie and is superior to Die Hard.

- I'll with you that it's a Christmas movie, but better than Die Hard? No way José

The thing is, Die Hard wasn't a Christmas movie originally. The script was changed by Constantine in 336 to align it with the Sol Invictus festival.
The Messianic Secret, @Messianic...
IT WAS DECLARED A CHRISTMAS MOVIE AT THE COUNCIL OF NICEA I CAN'T BELIEVE I HAVE TO GET ANGRY ABOUT THIS
- I like feeling up and happy and in a good mood, though - so I guess I'm an outlier, a holdover from another age.
  "Relic from the previous century," that's what I like to call myself.
  Note: The Muppet Christmas Carol (1992) is quite good. It has a solid performance by Michael Caine, who carries on as though it's an all-human cast.
