I don't agree with the order and I either haven't see some of them or think that it's either not that traumatizing or too small of a movie to be on the list, but overall a good collection.

50 Most Traumatizing Moments from Kids Movies

I don't get what the "Up" reference is and why it's so high on the list.

I wanted to watch tennis tonight, but they're not showing the matches I want on my recorded coverage on the DVR. And I don't want to watch the entire ones on stream either, I had just wanted to browse.

So it's turned into a movie + beer night. I'll let you know what movie I chose from my DVR.

The choices are Easy Rider; A Fistful of Dollars; or A Nightmare on Elm Street.

I'm going with Easy Rider right now.

Watching "A Nightmare On Elm Street".

After this, the only movies left on my DVR will be "A Fistful of Dollars" and "For A Few Dollars More".

Wait, I think I've seen this. "Hellraiser" might have been the horror movie I haven't seen yet.

Yeah, I've seen this.

Oh well, I'm set to record "The Blind Side" in 30 minutes, I'll just watch this movie until then, then watch "The Blind Side" live.

The directing and special effects for "A Nightmare On Elm Street" are good, but the plot is so dumb.

"The Blind Side" was a feel-good movie. Good character development all-around.

I think in real life, Oher would have been charged with battery for the fight near the end of the movie. And that might have affected his scholarship. Him not getting into any trouble wasn't realistic IMO.

I don't know if the real-life Oher had such an incident. They might have just done that scene, to make it a more dramatic movie.

I wanted to have a fistful of dollars but got greed and tried to add a few dollars more and ended up dropping the whole thing off the bridge. Sure, I had already missed out of plenty of money, but for sacrificing a few dollars more, I could have kept what I had.

I'm probably missing something basic about the premise of a movie in this setting (Western), but after the shootout early in the movie, with the Sheriff right there, why couldn't he just arrest the protagonist? What good is a sheriff if he can't do that, even against an intimidating character with a gun?

Bad post. But bad posts in a thread are better than no posts by you. :)

I'm not an expert on the history of guns, but they had machine gun cannons back then?!
