    Question Sort off topic, (are these movies safe?)

    Sorry if this kinda thread is in the wrong place or just not really needed but I'm a bit ocd when it comes to movies i haven't seen, anyway, long story short, I rented a few movies today.
    anyway I didn't think about this until now but I can't bare to watch movies with people being sick in, do either of these movies have any points that I mat need to look away in?
    -Trainspotting
    -Fightclub
    -Skyfall
    again sorry if this is a bad place to put the tread, but I don't really want to run into any triggers.

    Trainspotting is definitely not safe if you are squeamish.

    I WILL LIST POTENTIAL PROBLEMATIC SCENES BELOW IN WHITE TEXT

    I cannot recall any v* scenes but there are several graphic scenes such as severe d*, extremely dirty toilet although no v* is visible.
    Renton falls in the toilet and crawls back out.
    In the same toilet scene there is mild dry heaving.
    He also prepares a room for his detox, such as a bowl for V* but he does not v.


    I tried not to ruin the film, I managed to watch it all but just "skipped" that scene first time I watched alone. I watched it again with my other half and I felt braver.
    It's an amazing piece of British cinema it'd be a crying shame to miss out on it. See if you can be strong, if not, just skip the scene!

    Good luck, if you pluck up the courage to watch it let us know if you liked it.

    Sadly for the other two I have zero insight >_<

    Positive Note: It's safer than Requiem for A Dream. Again, an amazing film but I must fast forward a couple seconds in that.

    Fight Club has one itty bitty scene not too bad, but an amazing movie. worth the risk.

    There's a website called kidsinmind.com that has a violence/gore rating for many many different movies out there! I use it all the time before I watch a new movie, and in the description it will explain what exactly happens. I've found it to be very helpful for avoiding movies with v* scenes in them. Hope this helps, I've got the same problem you do with v* in movies!

    I know. I hate those scenes in movies! Are they really necessary to move the story along? They never needed them in Hitchcock movies. Anyway, I saw Skyfall a couple of months ago and I'm pretty sure it's safe.
