You ever get in one of those moods where every single thing someone does annoys you?

Yeah.

Recommend a movie that will take my mind off of it! Something funny enough to put me in a good mood, or sad enough to depress me into lethargy, or even just weird enough to keep my mind off them. I don't really care what, just give me a good movie that will take my mind off how annoying I find them right now.

(Translation: I really want to watch a movie because I'm in a foul mood, but don't know what to watch)

For funny AND mellow, The Truman Show's always a good bet.

Insert witty and clever quip here. My page, as the database hates my handle.

Its A Mad Mad Mad Mad World. It's not only one of the funniest comedies out there, it's also one of the longest. You can get yourself a good three hours of hilarious distraction there.

For sad

- Schindlers List

The Emperors New Groove never fails to put a smile on my face. And I've practically memorized the dang movie.

The Iron Giant. I guarantee an improved mood upon watching.

With cannon shot and gun blast smash the alien. With laser beam and searing plasma scatter the alien to the stars.

Pfft. Just kill your roommates and steal their stuff.

It's a win-win.

I shall add all of these movies to my list of 'things to watch', thank you all very much!

Well, except for the ones I've already seen. And Will Ferrell movies... I just don't find his movies funny at all. Which is a shame, because I think he can be funny, but they're just loud and obnoxious. Though it may be the result of classmates quoting them at the top of their lungs ad-naseum. I did sort of like Anchorman.

Dr. Strangelove. It will either make you laugh, or completely depress you.

Public Enemies and a bottle of whiskey. Nothing like watching a post-prohibition film with a little liquor.
