Couple of bits from wiki. it's a Christmas film no doubt!
On Christmas Eve, New York City Police Detective Lieutenant John McClane arrives in Los Angeles to reconcile with his estranged wife, Holly. McClane is driven by Argyle to the Nakatomi Plaza building for a company Christmas party held by Holly's boss, Joseph Takagi
As the film has a Christmas setting, the score also features sleigh bells in some cues, as well as the Christmas pop standard "Winter Wonderland". Two 1987 pop songs are used as source music: near the film's beginning, limousine driver Argyle plays the rap song "Christmas in Hollis", performed by Run–D.M.C., and later, while talking on the phone in the limousine, Argyle is listening to Stevie Wonder's "Skeletons". The end credits of the film begin with the Christmas song "Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!" (performed by Vaughn Monroe) and continues/concludes with Beethoven's 9th Symphony.

It's a very 'blokey' thing to name Die Hard as a favourite Christmas Movie.
Cos blokes are supposed to be tough innit.

I would never vote adult films like Die hard and Trading Places as top 'Christmas' films.
I only got around to watching Home Alone and Home Alone 2 for the first time last year. Brilliant films.
