Recovering from watching the film Meet Joe Black

edited October 2007 in Help / Advice Forum
Yeah I know, but I was bored and lonely and I thought hey, why not watch a little Meet Joe Black? All the cool kids are doing it. Before I knew it I had watched the entire film, no mean feat (as you are no doubt aware it is over four weeks long).

Are there any steps I can take to recover from the inevitable side effects from watching the film Meet Joe Black? I mean I have some whiskey but I've been on the wagon a good while. I just don't think I can cope with the two things at once, you know? Staying sober and having watched the film Meet Joe Black. I went and threw up a little and I feel a little better but I just don't think it was enough.

    you make poor decisions

    did you know that the director of this movie also directed gigli? Take comfort in knowing that after that little disaster, he'll never work in Hollywood again

    The best remedy is to remember Pitt getting hit by a car, over and over.

    I recommend following it up with a film about monkeys...or Ernest doing something wacky. I'm pretty sure that will help cleanse you. Maybe some Dunston Checks In, Every Which Way but Loose, or Ernest Goes to Camp.

    I would recomend bleach and a large metal spoon to clean out your brain.

    Possibly a saw of some kind to crack the skull open, alternatively find some paving.

    Is that the one where Brad Pitt plays a rabbi?

    I'll suggest gouging your own eyes out with a rusted grapefruit spoon, followed by an autolobotomy with an electric drill.

    A lot of people who hang around by my school smoke massive amounts of crack in order to forget their troubles (granted, they aren't on the level of watching Meet Joe Black all the way through) and it seems to be working out quite well for them.

    The get to sit in the sun all day, smoke crack, and urinate wherever they want. Also, they can say the most absurd shit at pedestrians, passing cars, trees, buildings, stray dogs, pigeons, or empty space, and nobody even judges them. It's the life, let me tell you.

    Step 1: Enema

    Step 2: Apply a cooling salve to any burns or rashes you may have incurred during the viewing

    Step 3: Read something by Kurt Vonnegut

    Can you think of any movies you're particuarly looking forward to? I could spoil (another) one for you if you like, the resultant rage stands a fair chance of completely erasing your memory of the last three days.

    Hey, not everybody gets to succeed at life.

    As for CT, I recommend finding a worse movie and watching it. Hard to do, I know, but I imagine BATTLEFIELD EARTH is up to the task.

    Of course, then you have to find a way to deal with that. But that's a problem for later, right?

    THIS DO THIS CT
    YOU'LL FORGET ALL ABOUT MEET JOE BLACK

    Get some friends who aren't on the wagon, tell them you're gonna record them doing the MST3K treatment on it. Hilarity will ensue.

    That's built in therapy right there.

    The best bit is the black guy in the background clearly enjoying it all far too much. He's all like 'Oh yeah, white boy gonna hit by a car right there. Let me just stand here with my hands on my hips and not warn him. Oh damn! A twofer. Let me just bend down so I can get a clear view of his skull impacting on the tarmac'

    What made you watch the .whole. movie? I understand you were bored... but when I get bored, the last thing to come to my mind is "hey lets watch Meet Joe Black", nor would I have that movie at my disposal.

    When I get bored I tend start calling people to see wtf is going on. If you have no one to call, at least watch a better movie! :)

    Sorry, I think those memories are there to stay, better luck next time. :P

    ive seen bits of this movie never the whole movie
    seemed alright

    i think the appeal was that brad pitt is such a handsome man and he looked very good in this movie
    and seeing as you went and watched the whole movie
    maybe a large perhaps lifesize poster of brad pitt is whats needed here
    how are you feeling are you feeling empty do you feel like something is missing in your life did the movie take the pain away if only for a short time
    it is probably the acute aching of realising you can never be with brad pitt
    we have all been through it and it is no fun
    put a poster up in your room and when it gets bad just lose yourself in his eyes until you feel better
    in a few weeks you should find yourself adjusting and accepting that your life will never be complete
    this acceptance is the best anyone can hope for

    You think recovering from meet joe black is bad? My wife forced me to sit through terms of endearment. I nearly vomited. Then she got mad at the end I cheered when
    the lady died.
    I had to watch rambo many times to undo that pain....it still lingers...

    I suggest masturbating yourself into a frenzy while thinking about Claire Forlani, while constantly muttering 'Death and Taxes, Death and Taxes, Death and Taxes...'.

    Hopefully it should set off enough contradictory and bizzare patterns in your brain, that on climax your memory will shut down and reboot to its last saved position pre Meet Joe Black.
