Quote:Not a movie, but I was unable to watch any scene in 24 where someone got tormented.
This is kind of odd, but I was quite numb to everything that happened in 24 until the final episode of Season 1. I went into that kind of expecting the Disney ending for the Bauer family, and something about the way it went down left me with a turning stomach and no desire to ever see Season 2 or beyond. There's nothing too graphical there, but something was emotionally overwhelming about the whole thing.
As for movies, I don't get to the cinema that often, and the TV edits never have the most graphic scenes. Like some other people, I don't blink at heavy violence and gore, but if someone is going to get poked with a needle full of heroin or adrenaline I am closing my eyes and turning around.
As for sports: Super Bowl, Bengals vs. 49ers, David Krumrie, inverted knee... not easy to forget seeing that even after all these years. Similarly, Willis McGahee of UMiami taking a knee blow from Will Allen of Ohio St in the Fiesta Bowl a few years back.
