Utter pompous nonsense, the drivel of fart sniffing elitism.
A postmodern audience would be cheering the parts of the movie when Hans Gruber kills Joseph Takagi, and later Harry Ellis.
LOL!
I had to sit through that movie for the umpteenth time the other day. (My husband insists it’s a Christmas movie...)
All I know is, it’s not Christmas till Hans Gruber falls from the top of the Nakatomi Building.
That’s actually pretty accessible compared to some other postmodern gibberish I’ve seen.
Like what this thing churns out:

The notion that “Die Hard” is a Christmas movie is spread by us guys, so that we don’t have to watch yet another sappy Hallmark Christmas movie in which a big city girl visits her rustic parents out in the country and falls in love with a local rube after he fixes the flat tire on her Mercedes and takes her a cup of hot chocolate at the local diner.
Bad Santa is my fave kind of modern Christmas movie. The cast is humor gold.
