> More like if you force anyone else to watch it with you, LOL. For example, I like most Disney and other such "kiddie" movies, but hate all the scary, serious, or sad movies. (Example: The Mummy- bugs crawling up people's skin is not myidea of entertainment. Yeesh!) For most other people I know, it's the other way around. That calls for conflict (and watching my Disney videos at home, alone!).

Correction- I don't hate serious movies. I just hate serious movies that seem intent to make you feel sad for the rest of the week. I love it when there's a definite message to a movie, and I can even stand some movies where the protagonist (or a lesser "good" character) is killed (for example, "The Green Mile"), but that all depends on the content of the movie. My problem is that I let the serious movies get to me, and I have to watch fifteen minutes of Nick at Nite just to shake the bad feelings afterward :-)
