    Die Hard cause Bruce makes a wife beater sexy


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    Die Hard, because John McLain beats Murtagh and Riggs every day of the week


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,497 ✭✭✭ArnoldJRimmer


    ooohhh, thats such a tricky one

    I'm going to nominate Die Hard as its more Christmassy, and for 'Now I have a machine gun, ho-ho-ho'


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 460 ✭✭tonytiger81


    Die Hard cos of that scene where "Hans - Bubby" gets the bullet :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,713 ✭✭✭Pretzill


    Die Hard as it's not just action, it's funny!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,465 ✭✭✭✭Kolido


    I vote Die Hard

    Better movie overall and for sure a better xmas movie.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,832 ✭✭✭✭TheValeyard


    Die hard. It's got Hans Gruber and machine guns.

    All eyes on Kursk. Slava Ukraini.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,081 ✭✭✭✭Mam of 4

    Two of my nominations

    Gonna plump for Santy here and vote Miracle but I won't be too sad if Gremlins gets through.

    Reason: Cos everyone loves a Christmas miracle

    Gremlins :D

    Cos it's hilarious and they're evil little beggars , but Gizmo is cuteness personified :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,465 ✭✭✭✭Kolido


    Gremlins for me. Need a bit of comedy horror in the next round. Also gizmo is cool


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,497 ✭✭✭ArnoldJRimmer


    Gremlins, and just to use a difference reason than last time in that its brilliant, Phoebe Cates is a ride


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 16,287 Mod ✭✭✭✭quickbeam

    Bad Santa, because it's actually a Christmas films and Potter should never have gotten so far.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 71,799 ✭✭✭✭Ted_YNWA


    Die Hard

    Great film, can be watched over & over again.

    Lethal Weapon is not a Christmas film.

    Whoever submitted that should be tossed off Nagatomi Tower.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,081 ✭✭✭✭Mam of 4


    Harry Potter .

    Wizardry , fantasy , snow , magical creatures , what's not to love about it !


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,313 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Harry Potter cos Bad Santa is hugely overrated


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,404 ✭✭✭✭sKeith


    bad santa as harry potter is not even an xmas movie and should have been ejected way sooner than this you silly sausages!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 71,799 ✭✭✭✭Ted_YNWA


    Miracle on 34th Street

    It has a full christmas theme to it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,497 ✭✭✭ArnoldJRimmer


    Bad Santa as its a funny and proper Christmas film

    And Harry Potter can go f*** himself in every possible way


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 71,799 ✭✭✭✭Ted_YNWA


    Bad Santa.

    Gives me a character to aim to be


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,713 ✭✭✭Pretzill


    Harry Potter because the films are a cosy Christmas treat

    Bad Santa in to the goddamned Quarters.

    Even though it's not specifically a Christmas film I'm going for the Wonka man - Gene Wilder, enough said - although Grandpa Joe is a lazy bastard


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 460 ✭✭tonytiger81


    Willy Wonka - what else would i watch while eating my selection box?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    Willy Wonka, because even though I don't think it really counts as a Christmas film, I have no desire to see Love Actually advance further


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,497 ✭✭✭ArnoldJRimmer


    Willy Wonka as its a great film to sit down to over Christmas.
