See Die Hard Trailer Edited Into the Greatest Christmas Story Ever Told


Die Hard is indisputably a Christmas movie, if not for the fact that its set during Christmastime. Thats enough, right? But purists would rather call it a cop flick, an anti-terror flick, a modern-cowboy epic (Yippie-kiyay!) or something to do with crime, since, you know, Bruce Willis is blasting baddies for better part of two hours. To rectify this for the films 30th anniversary, 20th Century Fox has cut a new yuletide-skewed trailer to prove that it really is The Greatest Christmas Story Ever Told.

The 90-second clip plays up all the holiday tropes, with a voiceover that begins, This is John. He just wants to spend Christmas with the family, and ramped up with cute kids, music from The Nutcracker and Alan Rickman going, Ho ho ho. Of course, it doesnt last long, and Willis starts blowing things up and shooting people, though they still get in a few references. Apparently, at one point in the movie, Willis calls out to his characters wife, who just happens to be named Holly, allowing the voiceover up to say boughs of holly. Its a fun spin on the original.

Of course, earlier this year, Willis clarified what the movie truly was during his Comedy Central Roast, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Its a fucking Bruce Willis movie, he declared. For more proof, watch the original action-packed, two-and-a-halfminute Die Hard trailer (which still has plenty of Christmas spirit, at least in the beginning) here.
