The ever-debated Christmas question: Is Die Hard a Christmas movie?

While the plot of the movie revolves around everyday hero, John McClane, attending a Christmas Eve party at Nakatomi Plaza and trying to make it home in time for Christmas, a new poll suggests that most people believe that it is NOT a Christmas movie.

poll was conducted by YouGov to determine whether a movie that takes place at Christmas time, but is not about Christmas itself, is a Christmas movie or not. For fans of Die Hard at Christmas time, the results do not look good.
