ngl I totally forgot this movie took place around Christmas. Never considered it a Christmas movie
it's a movie taking place during christmas and no one needed this video
Die hard is the best Xmas film of all time. Has more to do with Xmas than Santa Clause
All Shane Black movies are Christmas Movies.
This makes me think: are there movies in the Halloween season without it being an Halloween movie?
Iron Man 3 is absolutely a Christmas movie you just one of those nerds that says DieHard isn’t a Christmas movie, if it takes place on Christmas it’s a Christmas movie, if it ends with our protagonist back with his loved one and learns a valuable lesson on Christmas, it’s a Christmas movie. Get with the times, Nerd.
I like your take on this but idc Iron Man 3 is always gonna be my Christmas movie
Iron man 3 came out in May , I saw it the day before Easter, lol
Nah it tries to be by sprinkling some Christmas stuff here and there but it has to be throughout to count. Even Die hard and Batman returns knew that.
Any shane black movie is a christmas movie
My favorite Christmas movie is Spielberg's 1941.
Even if it is a Christmas or not , the movie is trash
Is Batman returns a Christmas movie?
Funnily, I just watched Patrick Willems video about Shane Blacks Nice Guys right before I watched this and he referenced all the same movies. lol
Thank God! I used to make the joke that Die Hard was “my favorite Christmas movie” like 10 or 15 years ago, and then I hadn’t said it in a long time, hell, I nearly forgot about it… and then, like a few years ago, I hear several people say that it is their favorite Christmas movie and acting like they’re really creative and really funny and stuff. I am NOT saying that I came up with the joke, because obviously I didn’t, I AM saying it’s a completely played out thing to say at this point. Any ammo I can use to say that Die Hard is not a Christmas movie makes me happy!
Die Hard puts me in a Christmas mood and that's good enough for me.
Iron man 3 is my 3rd favourite mcu movie
John McClane uses the Christmas party and holiday spirit to try to win his wife back and get his family back together. That is the plot of so many Christmas movies. Just because a terrorist shows up doesn't change his initial reasons for being there.
DIE HARD IS A CHISTMAS MOVIE!!!
I mean people consider Shazam a Christmas movie so why not
According to your definition of Christmas movie, it would disqualify a majority, if not most, of the Hallmark/Lifetime "Christmas" movies…I like it!
I see all it’s flaws but the pure hype after the avengers mixed with my young age of 9 will always make iron man 3 hold a special place in my heart.
i like the moral of this thank you
I actually prefer the ‘Is Iron Man 3 a Christmas movie?’ title more than the new one.
This was a beautifully done video.
Red suit, beard, yeah it's a Christmas film.
I love Ironman, I hate this movie
Why is home alone considered a Christmas movie if you take away the christmas theme the movie could still work
Shane Black didn't direct Predators
Something else is that after this movie we can see Tony carry this mentality throughout the rest of the mcu in the fact that not only does he wear the suit significantly less while on screen, but a perfect example is in the first Tom Holland spiderman movie when Tom tells Tony that he can't operate without the suit and Tony says "if you're nothing without the suit then you shouldn't have it"
Its gonna be a sad comment but every film set during Christmas is a Christmas film because usually watching it not around Christmas just makes you sad and miss that particular holiday.
Yall I didn't even realise it was set during christmas I just thought it was winter time lmao
god damn Christmas is either the happiest time of the year or the sadist most bitter and lonely time of the year. Guess what I've had more of.
