Definitely these 3. Excellent movies but much too painful to experience again.

This.

And I know it's not a movie, but the entire Fringe series.

Million Dollar Baby is one that I can't watch again.

Black Hawk Down pisses me off because our troops should never be under the command of the UN and they weren't allowed to have Apache helicopters because they were too intimidating.

I believe if they ever make a movie about the Benghazi screw up it will piss me off again.

I have a free pass to see Schindler's list this week at Perkins Rowe. I'm passing on it. Amazing movie that I do not to see twice.

I was about to come up in here acting like a badass, but I forgot about this film. Still the most powerful film I've ever seen. I don't think I could watch again and has been called by many "the best film you'll never want to watch again". An incredibly sad and depressing movie.

This one is in second, and I've only seen it once, but it's more just a holy frick reaction from me. I think I could bear through watching it again, even if I'd lose sleep for a night.

I thought I'd say that forever (have watched Schindler's List quite a few times for instance), but "Grave of the Fireflies" I can't bear to watch again. I loved the movie, but it was an incredibly devastating piece of work. Schindler's List is just sickening from a level of brutality and evil, but Grav of the Fireflies is kind of the opposite, in that its how heartless and unforgiving humanity in general can be to people who truly deserve their pity and help. Schindler came through, but in this film no one is there to help them.

Aliens look like roaches and they creep me out, especially when they talk about interbreeding.

Well seeing that cockroaches are one of my biggest fears in all the world, I bet it'd make me feel weak at the knees all film

I laughed during liam neeson's breakdown at the end. I just didn't buy it at all.
