A wholehearted yes. I try to watch it every December along with A Christmas Story and It's a Wonderful Life.

No. It's a movie with Christmas in it. But I have no problem with the folks.that think it is a Christmas movie.

Change my mind if you can.

Dam Bad Santa was a funny ass movie. Ruined my perception of the Gilmore babe.

The entire movie depends on McLaine traveling across country at Christmas to win back his family. I think that makes it a christmas movie.

Plus, if you have to watch christmas movies, you want good christmas movies. It being a christmas movie increases you good optiosn at family members' houses in December.

I wouldn't put it in the "Christmas movie" category but it seems more appropriate to be viewed around the holidays as opposed to spring/summer.

My main reason for saying not a Christmas movie is because you could use any holiday in Die Hard and it still works. Take Christmas out of Die Hard, Hans still goes splat from 100 floors up. Kinda like if you take Indiana Jones out of Raiders of the Lost Ark, the Nazis still wind up with their faces melted off.

Well, you would still have to have a reason that the building is kind of empty and he comes to her work. It has been a while since I watched it but there is only so many reasons that he would have flown across the country to visit her at work after hours.

But you wouldn't get the HoHoo I got a gun too written on the dead guys shirt or the wrapping tape that was used to attach the pistol to Johns back. Don't forget the drunken christmas orgy going on all over the office building.
