Year after year, passionate fans defend ‘Die Hard’ against the haters.

There’s an age-old debate that resurfaces each holiday season, and Jason and Travis Kelce are here to shut it down for good.

Jason and Travis Kelce End the 'Die Hard' Christmas Debate 'Once and for All' - Parade

During the question and answer portion of this week’s New Heights, titled, “No Dumb Questions,” one fan inquired about the pair’s favorite Christmas movies, sparking an intense discussion about classic films like Elf, A Christmas Story, and, of course, Die Hard, after asking the brothers to “settle the debate once and for all.”

Year after year, passionate fans defend the Bruce Willis-led hit against the critics, creating an ongoing and ever-present argument about the film’s status among Christmas classics.

“We gotta just knock Die Hard out,” Travis decided as the two considered where to start. “It’s not a Christmas movie, I’m sorry.”

Jason seemed to agree at first, suggesting, “It’s a movie you should watch around Christmas, but it’s not a Christmas movie.”

But, as we’re sure you’re also wondering, Travis prodded, “What’s the difference?”

“I wouldn’t say it’s a Christmas movie because you can watch it at any time of the year,” Jason explained. “It’s not strictly a Christmastime movie to watch. Die Hard is acceptable to watch anytime.”

A Christmas Story, on the other hand, can’t be watched in July—at least according to the Kelces. “It doesn’t work like that. It doesn’t hit.”

Though they’re giving the cult classic a thumbs down for Christmas categorization, Jason, who considers it a “fantastic movie,” still plans to watch it soon. “I have not seen Die Hard in a very long time,” he said. So long, in fact, that he was “embarrassed” to admit that he’s not sure he can even really remember what goes down correctly.”

Meanwhile, Travis seems to think the series was a bit overdone. “Just picture Bruce Willis walking out of an exploding building with like explosions just going off and he’s just like barely alive—that’s the whole movie.”

He then clarified, “He kills it, I’m kidding. But they did make five of them of him doing that exact thing.”

And while they went on to debate a slew of options for their number one Christmas film—”there’s so many good ones”—only one could fit the bill: A Christmas Story, which really “hits home” for the Cleveland natives.
