I like dogs more than I like most people, but I think that if you choose, as a policy, not to watch a movie because a fictional dog fictionally dies, you'll eventually miss out on a movie you'd really enjoy. Speaking for myself, the tradeoff isn't worth it.
- implying 4y agoThe site isn't really about dogs, it tracks a few dozen different topics that people consider difficult. It's not so much about any longstanding personal policy, but if your dog of 10+ years had just died recently, and you sat down to watch a movie to relax, you might not want the movie to feature a prominent animal death, for example.
- SilasX 4y agoThe site exists for the subset of people who don't find the tradeoff worth it because seeing a dog die is traumatic, so your advice for most people is kind of beside the point. If anything, this lets them see more movies than they otherwise would because they don't have to guess or be on edge for when they have to leave.
- stormbrew 4y ago> you'll eventually miss out on a movie you'd really enjoy. You will either way. Attention and time are finite, media is effectively not. There's no inbox zero for movies.
- laurent123456 4y ago> you'll eventually miss out on a movie you'd really enjoy This DTDD website is for people who will definitely not enjoy the film because the dog dies. Many of these films are quite lazy anyway - the dog is just a plot device and they kill it as a cheap way to build up tension. Basically you won't miss much from skipping them.
