Die Hard is actually a Christmas movie, as much as a workable distinction exists.
Studies suggest that viewers do draw a delineation: 50% of British audiences believe that a movie set at Christmas is not inherently a Christmas movie. A YouGov survey in December 2017 suggested that 56% of Americans and 52% of Britons don’t believe that
Die Hard is a Christmas movie. The following year, a poll from Morning Consult and The Hollywood Reporter was even more definitive, suggesting 62% of Americans did not think of
Die Hard as a Christmas movie.

At this point it’s not even a debate:
Die Hard is a Christmas movie. But at least now the studio that owns the movie is getting into the act, with a new trailer that recuts the movie into the jolly holiday offering we all knew it already was. It’s got an upbeat John Hughes-y narrator, Yuletide music, and lots of explosions and death. Happy holidays!
I sort of enjoy the official plot synopsis they put on this trailer too, which does make it sound like a Christmas movie.
Facing Christmas 3,000 miles from his estranged wife and two children, New York policeman John McClane (Bruce Willis) flies to Los Angeles bearing presents and hoping to patch up his marriage. Stylish and cool Hans Gruber (Alan Rickman) is in Los Angeles as well for the holiday season, but he s not there to give out presents. He s there to take: more than $600 million in negotiable bearer bonds from the multinational Nakatomi Corporation, where McClane s wife Holly (Bonnie Bedelia) is an executive. When the t
