Because having seen the trailer, I am 100% certain I would want to die if I had to see the movie with my girlfriend/wife, who would already have to chloroform me, hogtie me, and haul my ass to the theater to watch it with her.
Death would be preferable to such agony.
My knees are getting soggy
I agree. Only a masochist would want to see that movie. The trailer was upsetting anf I resent being forced to watch it in the theater before a movie I actually wanted to see. Who wants to see a dog die over and over and over?
shareI want to see this movie, but not with my wife. And its for pretty much the same reasons probably. I know she'll get emotional, especially when the different dogs die. I'll admit I proabably will too, but I still tear up watching Old Yeller. And, I'm gonna go ahead and make a prediction. When the dogs do something good, she'll say, and I quote, "Good boy (or girl, cause at least once this dog is a girl). If you want your mind blown, sit near us in the theater and see how accurate I am lol.
Close only counts with horseshoes, hand grenades, and thermo-nuclear weapons.
I saw Old Yeller once. Only... once. I couldn't have been any older than 10. I remember thinking something like "Why in the hell did I ask for that?" (I actually asked my parents to rent it from Blockbuster, can you believe that?) I have never seen it since, and I hope I never do ever again.

I'm not seeing this, but mainly because I'm not a dog person. Sure the dog dies, but he's constantly reincarnated, so only one death at the most will be permanent.

The sun is shining... but the ice is slippery.
The book wasn't a tear jerker, and I'm a big dog person. I think it actually could help dog owners as our little friends die.
shareThis is one of those movies you would want to see AT HOME and not around other people. I predict the On demand and video sales will be far higher than attendance at the movies
shareI agree! Same goes for Marly & Me. We saw Marly & Me flying to Europe once, and I walked to the back of the plane to use the bathroom, and everyone was bawling. Not a pretty sight! Not a good airplane movie choice. This was back before everyone their choice of 30 seatback movies.
