And while Die Hard may have a lot of action, the plot is basically all about John McClane getting to spend Christmas with his Wife. What's more Christmassy than than spending time with the family

I'm all for the giant fluffy bear, and the humor, and the action, the explosions and the intrigue, everything except the gory aftermath of "Schieß dem Fenster" 😖

[DejaBoo]

Both Prime and Disney list Die Hard in their lists of Christmas movies...

Plus.. what does Bruce Willis know, he also said that he sees dead people.. not sure I trust anything from his mouth

I'm not listenng...

I was reading a story the other week that Alan Rickman was infuriated by Rowan Atkinson when they were filming the shopping scene... Rowan kept asking to restart the take and do it over and Alan got infuriated... I was wondering if Rowan was trying to piss him off in real life for the authenticity of the reaction in the film 😁😁😁

Rowan Atkinson apparently is a real perfectionist, so I can well believe that he wanted to do lots of takes. I remember Danny Boyle in an interview on the Graham Norton show saying he had to tell him that the piece he was doing live 😁 for the opening ceremony of the Olympics in the U.K. could not be restarted/ retaken. 😁

allow me to acquaint you with one of my favourite scenes:

he may not've wanted to dance in the film, but dayum

[ari101]

Might be dancing around my apartment to that one ... And the Girls Aloud remix ... 🤣

Any chance of tomorrow's question early E.N. we're heading down a dark path here

[jp liz v1]

There is a Love Actually reunion happening or has happened, not a fan myself, find it way overrated

Agree, never liked that film at all. The constant referring to Martine McCutcheon's character as fat also really grates on me, especially as she's just a perfectly normal weight! Also yer man at the doorstep with the cards? Bleeeeurgh!
Give me Alan Rickman being fcuked off a 30 floor building any day over that rubbish. 😁

All movies have less than ideal scenes, I agree with you about the  fat references, totally uncalled for.  I was turned off by the ludicrous Wisconsin scene, beyond anything even remotely believable - adolescent fantasy at it's worst.

But there was some good acting in between the minimally bad, Rowan was a brilliant angel! And the storylines of Liam Neeson dealing with his grief by learning to relate (so well) with his stepson, and the way Emma Thompson depicted such vulnerable strength   - pure brilliance.

And it gave the world a Christmas Lobster!

I see the annual Die Hard argument has occurred

Simple one today...

Question 6: name one of Santa's original reindeer (excluding Rudolph)

just to clarify, that's the eight reindeer mentioned in A Visit from St. Nicholas. You know, 'Twas the Night Before Christmas...
