And so the great “Die Hard” debate begins again.
Fans have long argued over whether or not the film is a Christmas movie, and 20th Century Fox was recently moved to get in on the action. The studio dropped a recut trailer on Tuesday, Dec. 18 that calls the film “the greatest Christmas story ever told.” Yippee ki-yay… Santa Claus?

If it’s convinced you that “Die Hard” is, in fact, a Christmas movie, welcome to the party, pal.
