Movie Quote Monday – Die Hard
Not everyone considers Die Hard a Christmas movie, but I do.
For one thing, it takes place at a Christmas party. There’s even a tree…that falls over after the roof explodes. But still, Christmas.
And the hero, John McClane writes “Now I have a machine gun, HO HO HO” on a dead guy’s shirt. So Santa! Christmas!
And throughout the film, there’s all kinds of talk about miracles…
.
.
Hans Gruber: It’s Christmas, Theo. It’s the time of miracles, so be of good cheer.
.
Ok, so those are the bad guys.
But hey, that’s okay too, because even the bad guys believe in the magic of Christmas!
.
Do you think Die Hard is a Christmas movie?
Or are you a die hard Christmas purist – it’s only a Christmas movie if the movie is about Christmas?
Do you believe that Christmas is a time of miracles?
Are you a good guy or a bad guy?
