According to Movie Web, Nathan Fletcher, the chairman of the San Diego Board of Supervisors, has taken the needed steps to make this official. Fletcher released a video on Twitter where he has officially proclaimed the classic action film as a Christmas movie. This is because there are some viewers who do not think Die Hard is a Christmas movie, even though it takes place on Christmas Eve and has a festive theme throughout the whole film.

I know there are a few individuals out there who say Die Hard isn’t a Christmas movie and it just took place on Christmas Eve. That’s simply not the case. Die Hard is unquestionably a Christmas movie. Not only does the entire movie take place on Christmas Eve, not only is it infused with incredible Christmas music throughout, including one of the greatest Christmas songs of all time, Run DMC’s “Christmas in Hollis”, it is also full of all of the symbolism and pageantry. “Throughout it all, Die Hard is a Christmas movie. And so hereby I officially proclaim by the power vested in me as Chair of the San Diego County board of supervisors, Die Hard is officially a Christmas movie throughout San Diego County, now and forever into the future.”
