You know, whenever I get into a rough patch in my life, whether it be with my parents, friends, what not, I take it in a civilized manner, and watch a movie.

I want to ask now, what movies help you feel better?

I can think of two: Bruce Almighty and Click. Those two, when I watch them, make me wish my life was kinda like those movies, in a way.

It depends whats bothering me. If I am feeling angry and victimized, a movie like Passenger 57 makes me feel wicked good. If I desire pure escape, then I go for chick flicks like Jane Eyre, Pride and Prejudice, or something like that.

Miracle is always a good go-to movie for that. I'm considering making a habit of watching it the night before I run a big race.

Really old movies seem to work for me.

EDIT: I almost forgot Finding Nemo.
