Calling Die Hard a X-mas movie is a stretch.

    This movie conflicts me. It is one of my favorite movies ever, yet I hate Costner's performance in it. Strange.

    right? Like his acting is so bland and emotionless.

    His range as an actor is not very dynamic.

    Seeing as Die Hard existed about a decade before Harry Potter was ever published I dare say the whole Harry Potter franchise is a Die Hard and Star Wars ripoff.

    As a minority myself and fully alive during those times, let me just say, action heroes of nowadays are reaaal flaky. Daniel Craig went from gritty Bond to flaky Bond in the process of 5 movies and he is super white. They can cast Idris Elba as Bond and as long as they continue with flaky stories they will never match the manliness of the 80's action heroes.

    Without that line and scene, this would not be a xmas movie.

    Plenty of snow and Christmas trees in that scene, that's for sure.
