You humans will laugh, but for me, it was Marley and Me, a film that allows you to watch a dog live and then die.

i was a fun loving guy with a golden and I met my Jennifer Anniston so it was just too similar and painful and remembering my dog makes me sad.

There's a reason https://www.doesthedogdie.com/ exists after all

Any time my wife and I are watching a horror movie and see a pet, I immediately pause and go check.

If the answer is yes, I look for the times to skip, and ask her if she wants to keep watching knowing what happens.

So far we've only ever skipped parts for two movies, usually it's just a "let's find another movie"

I should have done that for "I am legend"

I can't even listen to that song anymore. That movie ruined it for me.

i saw that as a kid the second the tone got serious i ran to my room. still never finished it
