Since we can all agree that "The Wrong Trousers" is the best Christmas film, I think that "Die Hard" is a Christmas film is a no brainer.
The Straight Lads need a film they can be emotional, bond over, and feel festive joy.
The best christmas movie!
the best classifier i've heard is "christmas movies are movies you would feel weird watching any other time of the year".
Never understood where that came from. Definitely not a Christmas movie for me.
The whole McClaine takedown of the terrorist is a Xmas miracle

Yes it is. Just like how The Shawshank Redemption is an after New Year's movie.
Absolutely a Christmas movie
No, we all do not.
Edit: not sure I've ever been downvoted for agreeing with the main question hahahaha classic
I'm not sure if I have ever even seen it fully
What are we agreeing in?

If the only thing a Christmas movie takes is being set on or around Christmas, Batman Returns and Eyes Wide Shut are Christmas movies. Oppenheimer has a Christmas scene, is that a Christmas movie too? Clearly there's a line somewhere.

Wrong. As I have said in a similar conversation:
I’m going to argue that Die Hard is NOT a Christmas movie. It’s simply a movie where the events within it, happen to take place around Christmas time.
Die Hard is to Christmas movies what Top Gun is to romance movies, or what Casablanca is to war movies. Just because it contains a thing, doesn’t mean it’s about said thing.

Not really.
No, because I have never watched it.
Okay, step away from the crack pipe, and nobody gets hurt.
