Just read the plot of that movie. Don’t feel like any words I can produce would make you feel better about it. It’s just… I hope you are now in a better place and have something to rewrite these memories over.
Watched Our Planet, season 2 episode 2, and just started weeping uncontrollably when I saw the baby Albatross dying from being fed plastics and other toxic waste. I had to tap out.
I had a golden retriever growing up, and he was the best friend I could have asked for. Seeing the dog in peril (I don’t really remember the movie now) was too much, and I lost it.
Sons of Anarchy. The show portrays so many people living in ever-increasing states of desperation. One episode ends with a character hanging himself and I almost quit right then and there even though there were multiple seasons left. I had never seen so much depression and crushing desperation portrayed like that. I took a break from it after that episode.
I did finish the show and it was indeed horribly depressing, but incredibly well-done and well-written.
I am very late to this, but the movie The Road written by Cormac McCarthy. I had watched this movie several times and what changed you ask? I have a little boy now. Can’t watch it. Just can’t
I didn’t see anyone else mention it, but the scene in King Kong where one of the guys is eaten alive by four or five giant worms, each one starting from a different limb (the last one swallowing his fucking head).
Doesn’t matter that they were setting him up for you to root for him to die, it’s still way too much for me.
Oh yeah. Creators did a great job at making that as dirty and greesy as possible for whatever reason. I don’t understand why, but there was much effort to drop that bomb onto the viewer out of nowhere.
How deep you got into TWD? My unsocial ass liked the first couple of episodes, this cop riding on a horse like in Hot Fuzz, but with all that interpersonal drama I got sick of it. It felt so weird these people are the last men on Earth and they still have something to fight each other over.
Jericho felt better in that aspect. Some suspect it was closed because it was too good and educative. I don’t know if it’s true, but it’s 90’s cinema slow, so you can become bored really quick.
The show is about interpersonal drama more than it is about zombies and that’s not me being reductive. The creator himself has said as much. It’s a drama set in a post apocalyptic zombie world, not a zombie drama set in a post apocalyptic world.
That’s why it’s not my piece of cake maybe. Too much of that IRL to enjoy the same on the silver screen. Pressing a play button, I want these fantasy persons to work together like Legolas and Gimli, not fighting each other over small things.
Yea same. I want some dope zombie fighting. That’s why early on they established that everyone was infected and there’s pretty much no way to cure it currently. Season 1 or 2 iirc.
Michael crosses so many red lines. None critical to me, but here and there it makes me eerk. And I remembered this episode juts by reading it’s name. It says something.
That was just so vividly depressing and anxiety inducing I couldn’t go more than a few pages a week, and eventually I just stopped and read the summery instead.
