21 People Share Their Favorite Movie To Watch When Everything Seriously Sucks

You know those days when everything is a giant Suck Fest of Sucking and all you want to do is to crawl into a pile of blankets? The worst, right? And when that happens, you’re not exactly feeling like a social butterfly. But luckily, we have television and movies so if we wanted, we’d never have to interact with society ever again! Hooray! I asked people what their go-to movie to watch is when they’re feeling on the blue side and this is what they had to say:

1. “Absolutely anything with Mary-Kate and Ashley. I own all their DVDs. It Takes Two deserved an Oscar, imo.”
