Shit I’ve not even thought of the process of consuming Die Hard, I was considering whether a policeman shooting some stylish, witty immigrants to protect a bank/large corporation is really the plucky underdog story we all need at this time of year.

Things a Christmas film needs most:
- Set at Christmas
- Mention or sight of Father Christmas
- Some sort of magic
- Underdog main character
- Strong charitable/anti-capitalist undertones
- Children of some sort
- Music featuring sleigh bells
- Appearance of snow
- Evil men converted to goodness rather than shot in the head
- Other (please specify)

I find it firmly sits in that weird individualist anarcho-capitalist tone the same way a lot of macho action films do.
