In 1989, a bunch of pals from A&M went out to LA for a week. We drive by the "Nakatomi" Plaza in Beverly Hills area and immediately notice it from the movie. Sure enough it was the same building. The security guard wouldn't take a picture with us.

Why its a Christmas movie: Takes place during Christmas, minor plot details are about Christmas, director says it is.

Why it's not a Christmas movie: The movie can take place during the CEO's 60th birthday party and it's still the same movie with minor changes. Calling it a Christmas movie means that any movie that takes place during Christmas (Lethal Weapon, Batman Returns, Iron Man 3, Gremlins, etc) are Christmas movies. The movie can be watched any day of the year and not feel out of place.

Any others?


Uh...Gremlins is a Christmas movie at my house.

There are two types of people in this world. Those that think Die Hard is a Christmas movie and those that are wrong.

I'm pretty sure Bruce Willis put the Christmas movie/not a Christmas movie debate to rest during his roast on Comedy Central.

I watched the Making of Doc on Netflix the other night. As they were talking about picking the office building for the movie, they flashed through about 6 or 7 including the old Bank of America building in Houston (700 Louisiana) and The old Continental HQ (1600 Smith).

They didn't comment on any of them so I don't know if it was just stock footage or office buildings or they were actually considered. I'm pretty sure the continental building was pretty empty due to the oil bust in 1987.

Two years later and it's still a Christmas movie. Suck it.

Christmas is also part of the plot in Lethal Weapon. Shane Black really does like Xmas in Los Angeles.
