For me, it's jingle all the way. It's got everything. A drunk reindeer. A terrorist mailman. Arnold punching a deer. Arnold punching Sinbad. Arnold punching Santa. Arnold in general.

Edit: sure are a lot of die hard fans of Die Hard.

There's a ton of movies called that. What year?

The 1974 original! Directed by Bob Clark, who would also give us Porky's and A Christmas Story.

I said it was considered a classic, I was referring to the original from 1974.

There was also a movie called Black Christmas released in 1977, 2006, and 2009

I guess it's my bad then.

I assumed people would think it's the original. Kind of like saying Texas Chainsaw Massacre is a classic and believing they'd think of the 1974 film instead of the 2022 film of the same name.
