Quoted from PinPatch:Die hard 2 is around Christmas time as well isnt it? Has the jingles playing through the trailer...
Both Die Hard and Die Hard 2 take place on Christmas Eve.
Quoted from msj2222:Personally I love the move but I dont believe is a Christmas movie. The story takes place during Christmas simply as a vehicle for why John flies from NY to CA to see his estranged wife & why there is a big party in the tower at night.After that is established it plays no role in the move & There is no Christmas message
True it wasn’t made as a Christmas movie, it’s just been adopted as one, Die Hard is as synonymous with Christmas as Home Alone. Neither need a Christmas message they are both just great movies to watch during the holidays with family.
Quoted from msj2222:Well, would that make Lethal Weapon a Christmas movie then !?
It is in my house
If anything that’s got a Christmas message in it, at the beginning of the movie they don’t know each other Murtaugh pretty much dislikes Riggs because they are so different but by the end of the movie they are friends and Murtaugh invites Riggs to spend Christmas with his family.
