🤺 Prompt 🤺
🎥 Genre: Action
🎨 Theme: Christmas
Show us your holiday spirit! In the most violent way possible. Or actioney way possible, same difference. And for those asking, yes, Die Hard is a Christmas movie. This prompt is much more versatile than it initially seems. ;) How you choose to incorporate the Christmas theme is up to you. Extra credit for creativity as always.
