A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Yeah, Up and Toy Story 3 are off limits here unless I need a big cathartic ugly-cry.
Same here. And I would love to watch Up again, because it's brilliant! But I can't handle the opening 20 minutes.
Scenes that scared me as a child: the Wicked Witch of the East's feet curling and vanishing under Dorothy's farmhouse, and the Oompa Loompas from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. And all of Poltergeist, which I saw when I was 10 or so.
And every specifically-engineered cry point in an animated movie will get me. Every time. I know I'm being manipulated, it doesn't matter.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
And every specifically-engineered cry point in an animated movie will get me. Every time. I know I'm being manipulated, it doesn't matter.
God, yes. I start tearing up in anticipation of those moments. I know they're coming and yet, they get me every time. When did I become a crier?

Actually, I don't know if this counts as trauma, but the entirety of Alice in Wonderland, the animated movie, leaves me deeply unsettled and horrified.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Was Poltergeist where the creepy tree in the backyard tries to eat the kid? I've never seen the movie, but I came across that scene while flipping channels as a child and it terrified me.

I didn't see the part with the clown. Just the tree.
