Columbia Pictures

The Departed

“My younger sister loves to spoil all movies for me. She started blowing up my phone towards the end of The Departed, knowing that I would start to worry and think it was an emergency. I opened my phone to a text, ‘EVERYONE DIES HAHAHAHA.‘ Classic.”

Home Alone 2

20th Century Fox

Up

“The very first time I saw Up was back in 2009 on Thanksgiving. The first 15 minutes utterly destroyed me, and it was made even worse for me when I looked over to see my grandparents cuddled together on the couch. My grandma was in end-stage pancreatic cancer and wound up passing away not even a month and a half later. I can’t watch that movie anymore without going back to that moment.”

Pixar

Wonder

“My 8-year-old son has a huge fear of Wonder to the point of obsession after seeing the trailer. He stopped watching TV on the chance they have commercials, and he won’t go into stores that might have it on display. He gets upset if we even say the word ‘wonder’. I read the book and wanted to see the movie, but after all of this, I don’t feel like seeing it anymore.”

Lionsgate

The Wizard of Oz

“The Wizard of Oz used to be one of my fave movies, but then I got a role in the musical and every thing was fine until I got my first fucking period on show night and had to wear white pants. I later looked at the pictures and EVERYONE could see my bloody pants. I can’t ever look at those lil munchkins again.“

MGM

Lord of the Rings

“My ex loved Lord of the Rings. I was sick one time and he brought over the extended edition of the entire series. It was fun watching it with him and we got to spend some quality time together. A few months later, he came out to me as gay while I was in the fucking HOSPITAL! I broke up with him and three weeks later, he started dating my best friend….. WHO IS A FEMALE! I can’t even think of LOTR without feeling angry.”

New Line Cinema

The Great Gatsby

“I went to go see The Great Gatsby with my crush and my best friend. Half way through the movie, the tables turn and the two of them are holding hands while I’m the third wheel. I still cant listen to ‘Young’.”
—srocano

Warner Bros

The Goonies

“The Goonies was ruined for me because of my psychotic sister. She FLIPPED out because I watched her VHS and put the tape back in the wrong way. She threw the tape at me and screamed at me. What followed was an entire summer, autumn and part of a winter of her mistreating me, stealing MY tapes and destroying them. I swear, it was daily hell for me. It was affecting my mentality and making me scared to come home. I still cannot watch The Goonies to this day.”

Warner Bros.

Prometheus

“My husband and I went on a rare kid-free date to see Prometheus. Unfortunately, the man behind us felt so at home and comfortable, he took his shoes off and propped them up by us. Now, I can’t see anything involving the Alien franchise without thinking of horrible foot odor.”

20th Century Fox

22 Jump Street

“In college, my (now ex) boyfriend and I tried to plan a movie night. We thought it’d be fun to rent a bunch of movies and make snacks, etc. His three neighbors came barging in, drunk as shit. They turned all the lights on, plopped down, and watched the movie. They talked during the whole thing and ate all the snacks. I kept texting my boyfriend to ask them to leave, but he never said anything to them. Still can’t watch 22 Jump Street without my skin crawling from anger.”

DreamWorks

Beetlejuice

“I went through a spell of having nightmares, and I had one where Beetlejuice was trying to murder me and my entire family. Flash forward 16 years later, and I can’t even look at Michael Keaton without feeling a little uneasy.“

Warner Bros.

Frozen

“My mom just had to tell me that she cheated on my dad with her best friend’s son, who also happened to be a good friend of mine. I was crushed. We took the kids to see Frozen the next day and I cried silently through the whole thing. Now I associate that movie with heartbreak and even hearing the soundtrack makes me tear up.”

Disney

The Godfather

“I was recovering from organ transplant surgery. One evening, I was in tremendous pain and sat up while watching The Godfather hoping the pain would pass. Turns out I had a bad abdominal infection and almost died. To this day, I can’t watch the movie without some emotional discomfort.”
—josritson

Paramount Pictures

American Pie

“The first American Pie movie, because every time I went to a party, people expected me to scream “MILF! MILF!” at the family photos hanging up simply because I was Asian and spiked my hair like John Cho did.”
—samg4b02cda83

Universal Studios

The Mask

“I can’t watch The Mask with Jim Carrey because halfway through watching it, my dad left and my mom announced we were moving out. Every time I see it, I think about that night!”
—bradyg3

New Line Cinema

Kung Fu Panda

“I once agreed to hang out with my friend and her boyfriend while in middle school. We put on Kung Fu Panda and within the first five minutes, the two of them were making out. It was so awkward. I didn’t know what to do because I was so shy, so I just sat there through the whole thing while they were going at it. I almost got kicked in the face”

Dreamworks

Swingers

“I dated a guy who was obsessed with Swingers. If I never hear someone tell me I’m ‘so money, baby’ ever again, it will be too soon.”

Miramax

Old School

“We were watching Old School as a family when my dad got a suspicious phone call from his ‘job’ claiming he was needed at the office. Later that night, while he was still at ‘work’, he accidentally butt-dialed my mom and she heard him telling another woman he loved her. They were divorced shortly thereafter.”

DreamWorks

Rise of the Planet of the Apes

“Rise of the Planet of the Apes was ruined after my little brother had a seizure while my family was watching it. We had to call an ambulance, and when I came back from the hospital it was still paused and on the screen. I can’t even watch the movie without getting stressed, which is a real shame considering what an awesome movie it is.”

20th Century Fox

Full Metal Jacket

“My dad and one of his friends got day drunk watching Full Metal Jacket. A friend was dropping me off after school and we pulled into the driveway to find the two of them shaving each other’s heads, poorly, while loudly quoting most of the boot camp scenes. I was mortified. Haven’t been able to watch the movie since.”

Warner Bros.

The Sixth Sense

“I rented it when it came out on video and invited my friend over to watch it. I told her I hadn’t seen it, and she replied ‘Oh, you’ll love it. Bruce Willis is dead the whole time.‘ We no longer speak.”
—samanthaholleyf

“If you’ve watched 50 First Dates then you know they watch The Sixth Sense everyday. One scene, Drew Barrymore’s character says ‘I can’t believe Bruce Willis was a ghost the whole time!’ And sadly, right then and there was when The Sixth Sense was spoiled for me.”
—tatel4dd4c2d7a

“My mom: ‘Wasn’t it crazy how Bruce Willis was dead the whole time?’
Me: ‘Mom, I haven’t seen it yet!’
Mom: ‘Oh you haven’t? That’s too bad. It was really great!'”
