Scenes you don't like to watch with anyone else

Whenever you watch films with people, have you ever come across a scene that you just find uncomfortable to watch when others are around. Do you ever try to inexplicably come up with reasons to leave the room as soon as the scene in question starts up. The reason can be sadness, awkwardness anything. Just scenes that you find hard to watch with others.

For me there's the transformation scene in An American Werewolf In London and the Donkey sequence from Pinnochio.

Heck, it can be a book for all I care. Just the knowledge that I'm subjecting a friend to a horrible plot twist - generally the death of one of my favorite characters - triples my pulse with a thoroughly irrational guilt.

For me, moviegoing is usually a social experience: be it to discuss the awesome on-screen, talk about things that the movie reminds us of, or just to snark the Hell out of it. However, I'm quite thankful that none of my friends were available to see Black Swan with me. I know the title says Scenes, but I think the whole movie applies here.

DAT TENTACLE TREE

The Singing Asshole in Pink Flamingos.

Any scene I know is gonna make me tear up.

I watch some pretty sleazy horror films so there's quite a few scenes I don't care to watch with others.

Nothing was more awkward than a living-room viewing of Brokeback Mountain with the whole family. Oooooh lordy. I think I was the only one who had any real idea of what we were getting into because I'd had to read the story for school a few years earlier, so I was able to reach over and protect my niece's virtue. Everyone else was on their own.

Unexpected gay sex scenes: brings the family together in awkward silence. Never watching anything with a sex scene with them ever again.

A sex scene that would probably injure you.

Did you see A History of Violence? The actors actually got bruised filming a sex scene done on stairs (even though they were wearing pads).

They were wearing pads?

I can just imagine a sex scene done in sparring gear.

I, er...don't think that's what lolacat was referring to.

I have problems watching movies with my mom if there are particularly explicit sex scenes or stuff of that nature. I could probably never feel right watching Black Swan or Brokeback Mountain with her. Lordy, that would be uncomfortable. I have a hard time letting her listen to music with swearing in it either.

Sex scenes in general. I don't even like to watch them on my own honestly.

This is from a video game, but any scene with Vamp in it from Metal Gear.

Oh my god yes. That had my parents giving me weird looks for a while. ...damnit Vamp. With your tongue. And your crotch knife. Being all skanky.

The Peachi comic sums it up pretty well. There are other scenes in Metal Gear that are uncomfortable to watch in front of other people for some reason.

I didnt feel very comfortable when watching the unexpected sex scenes from the remake of Friday the 13th and Bloody Valentine.

The Christian Slater facial collapse sex scene in Name of the Rose. First watched at age 16 with the entire family. BIG cringe.

All of the sex (and masturbation) scenes from The Black Swan

Male on male fellatio in Midnight Cowboy. I never personally mind these scenes unless a family member is around...

The Halleujah sex scene from the Watchmen movie.

Does "The Whole Movie of Cannibal Holocaust" count?

I once saw a comment in which someone said that Midnight Cowboy would be a PG-13 today. I had to tell him that he clearly forgot about this part.

In Australia, Midnight Cowboy gets a mere M15+, which is our PG-13 because it's not age restricted.
