I was wondering if movies could have a negative affect on some people. For example romance movies as they tend to depict happy endings that many people wish for. While this makes you happy while seeing the movie, if your own life does not happen to be going in this direction could that just have a negative affect on you.

Yeah but that person just needs to stop watching movies. They'll find that depression in something else, like books or, well, reality. They'll find some way to pout about what they don't have. And the type of movies I watch most of them make me see how good I have it. But sometimes i do look at a movie and say, i wish it could be like that, then i come back to reality and realize it could be worse, i'm blessed.

Movies, for me, are inspirational. Although I know it is fantasy it helps to know that SOMEONE somewhere thought up the plot and characters... so anything is possible. I'm talking about movies like Rocky and Empire of the Sun; movies that make you feel that you are important and have unique gifts to offer the world. I like seeing a movie and coming away from it "high" on life. People get dumped on enough in life. It's good to get "away." I get the same results from reading books, too.
Good question, though!

I suppose it depends on the movie. Some have very poor story lines and glorifies things that do us harm (like alcohol and drug abuse)
But some inspire us to be better than we are (When A lead Character has to overcome some great odds to accomplish a goal for example)
..and some are just fun. they provide a temporary escape from the pressures and stresses of everyday life.
(Good Question!!)

Sometimes movies are just for the purpose of taking you away from the hum drum of every day life,whether it be a romance, action,comedy etc..Movies can have negative or positive if you are looking for that, if you see something positive incorperate into your life.people don't have to be influenced by everything they watch,even though sometimes are.

Yes it's true. When one watches a movie, we see things that we don't have, and it can have a negative effect on us, if someone would dwell on it. But it can also show us some bad things that we are glad we don't have. "I'm glad I don't live in the ghetto"

a million. I want that if a guy likes me, that he does no longer waste his time watching me and not using a minimum of smiling or declaring hi to me. 2. If a guy is conscious that i like him and he would not like me decrease back, to no longer stare at me or coach any indicators of pastime. It merely leads the undesirable woman on.

Forget movies, television already does that for us in general!
But yeah sometimes if you are a very superficial person, who lives for fantasies!
But if your a kid its only natural!

Movies to me are just movies - they entertain me, that's about all.
