@Jason Tate Do I get a trophy for this

 

John McClane is so likeable!

 

I've somehow never seen Die Hard

 

I'm pretty neutral on the "Die Hard is a Christmas movie" argument, which I feel is very unpopular because people usually only argue vehemently for one way or the other

 

Do people actually care about what is or is not a "Christmas movie"?

 

I feel like it is, despite the fact that it came out in the summer, but I also don't really think it's that important.

 

But...but...you consume so much pop culture. And Die Hard is one of the most referenced things in pop culture. Does not compute. Does not comp-

 

It's referenced so often that if you make it to 20 and still haven't seen it, there's really no need because you've consumed all the important bits of the movie through pop culture anyway

 

I only saw Die Hard about a year ago. It is okay.

 

I binge watched Die Hard 1-4 last year for the first time and very much enjoyed 1 and 3. Not gonna watch 5.

 

Die Hard With A Vengeance is the best of the series. You don't need to bother watching Die Hard 2: Die Harder.

 

Die Hard is good. I think Shane Black makes the best action movies, tho

 

Now that's what I call a sticky situation.

 

I don't think Lethal Weapon is any good.

 

Action is my least favourite broad genre

 

Lethal Weapon is awesome, it's true

 

It's just been revoked!

 

The first one is the better movie, but I like 2 better for sure,

 

I haven't either tbh. Im sure I've seen bits and pieces while my dad was watching it but I've never sat down and watched it

 

So many of the best movies are action movies though! The Rock, T2, True Lies, Total Recall, and unpopular but Faceoff!

 

I used to say that I didn't like action movies but I just wasn't watching any good ones, turns out.

Edit: however, I definitely approach action movies differently than I do other genres. Like, I sort of turn my brain off for actual movies. I'm just looking for likable characters and good choreography.

 

I love movies and would never discount a whole genre, it's just action is definitely the one I frequent the least
