Die Hard: With a Vengeance
New York detective John McClane is back and kicking bad-guy butt in the third installment of this action-packed series, which finds him teaming with civilian Zeus Carver to prevent the loss of innocent lives. McClane thought he'd seen it all, until a genius named Simon engages McClane, his new "partner" -- and his beloved city -- in a deadly game that demands their concentration. From TMDB

It's a Christmas movie because it has The Christmas Plot: A man who is neglecting his family to focus on work learns What Really Matters through an improbable crisis around the holidays and rededicates himself to his wife and kids

neutral · AI labelView post →Here is a test for the civility on BlueSky: A movie cannot be a Christmas movie unless Christmas plays a central mechanism in the transition of the narrative from A to B. So Die Hard is clearly NOT a Christmas movie because Christmas changes nothing in the story.
neutral · AI labelView post →OK, which "Christmas movie" are you folks MOST looking forward to watching today? I'm cranking up "Die Hard" as we speak.

neutral · AI labelView post →As those who celebrate Christmas mark the season by watching the movie Die Hard, I wonder: Isn’t Die Hard also a Hanukkah movie, celebrating a small and brave band fighting for freedom against overwhelming odds? There’s one obvious indication: John McClane = JM= Judah Maccabee. 🤷♂️
neutral · AI labelView post →If Die Hard is a Christmas movie, then Paul Blart: Mall Cop is a Die Hard movie.
neutral · AI labelView post →I know "Die Hard" is y'all's favorite Christmas movie but there's another film that has a lot of elements of "Die Hard" PLUS a much more involved Christmas message and musings on the "invisibility" of homelessness. This Christmas, check out "Tokyo Godfathers." www.tokyoweekender.com/entertainmen...
neutral · AI labelView post →“Die Hard” is a film about an American man who, unable to sustain his marriage or any other kind of positive human relationship, takes out his frustrations on a group of men who epitomise everything he is not by being well dressed, comfortable in their sexuality and happy to be with one another.
neutral · AI labelView post →in the new prequel Die Hard: John McClane's Bitter Divorce filmmaker Jim Jarmusch delivers a stirring eight hour rendition of the McClane couple's lawyers hashing out a binding custody plan. the entire film is one unbroken shot of a conference table in a law office!

positive · AI labelView post →tired: you should watch Die Hard because it's a Christmas movie wired: you should watch Die Hard because it is a perfect action movie
positive · AI labelView post →Die Hard is a diamond of a film. I couldn't write something that tight in a million years. It also would not occur to me to shoot air ducts and cubicle farms with anamorphic lenses like some kind of crazed lens-flare wizard, but that's why I'm not Jan de Bont

neutral · AI labelView post →What is your favourite Christmas film? Love Actually? Home Alone? Or something else? To me, the ultimate Christmas film has to be Die Hard (slightly ironic I guess, as the film hardly captures the spirit of Christmas). Die Hard has simply become a movie we watch during every Winter holiday :)
positive · AI labelView post →TIRED: DIE HARD is a Christmas movie WIRED: The INSIDE LLEWYN DAVIS soundtrack is a Christmas album
neutral · AI labelView post →Die Hard is most likely not a Christmas movie, as most historians believe the film took place during the Spring and was moved to December by early Christians in order to co-opt pagan action films.
neutral · AI labelView post →Reminder that Die Hard is a Christmas film because it's about a guy who reconnects with his family and who's actions restore hope and faith into a guy who lost his spirit all while defeating a guy motivated only by greed

neutral · AI labelView post →Absolutely incredible film. Antifa old ladies vs Nazi invaders, Die Hard by way of Enid Blyton, made and released while the war was still going on. (first recommended to me by Mr Alan Moore himself, should you need a more compelling endorsement)
neutral · AI labelView post →Tis the season. Time to break out the advent calendar. Yippee ki yay Hans Gruber! In some sort of Dredd slo-mo/Die Hard mash up, it's going to take him 24 days to meet his destiny. Not going to get into the 'Die Hard, Xmas movie or not' debate...which it totally is.
neutral · AI labelView post →Die Hard is not a Christmas movie, it is a Fantasy film about an imaginary world where an LAPD cop needs to be convinced to shoot someone.
neutral · AI labelView post →Die Hard is a Christmas Movie.
neutral · AI labelView post →it is so good, in fact, that it is an entire movie genre in and of itself The Raid: a Die Hard movie Dredd: also a Die Hard movie think of an action movie that involved fighting your way up or down a building, that's a Die Hard movie and all of them are great
neutral · AI labelView post →Teasing the Ode to Joy all film long then finally hitting it as hard as possible amid rainbows of low-angled lens flare when the *bad guys* triumph is one of the coolest things any action movie has ever done. Die Hard!
positive · AI labelView post →Die Hard is a Christmas movie. Agree? 🙋♀️
neutral · AI labelView post →Broke: Die Hard is not a Christmas movie, it’s an action film Woke: Die Hard is set at Christmas. Christmas film Bespoke: Die Hard is about death, judgement, and deliverance from evil (and people anticipating the celebration of Christmas with an office party) and is therefore clearly an Advent movie
neutral · AI labelView post →"Die Hard is a Christmas movie" Die Hard is a nostalgic allegory in which the mythical values of the American frontier triumph over technofuturist global capitalism. Grow up
