Hi, I am posting this for those who were talking about wanting to see the Maleficent movie. Aside from the Brangelina cheater debate, some of the themes in the movie itself were a trigger for me, although I admit that could just be because I am overly sensitive and everything seems to be a trigger.

SPOILER ALERT!

The reason Maleficent supposedly turns evil is because she is cruelly betrayed by someone she is in love with. It wasn't an infidelity situation but the betrayal and her scene of discovery was a big trigger for me, though like I said I could just be overly sensitive.

I just wanted to warn anyone who might be going to see it.

Went to see it yesterday and it was sad. You could feel the hurt that she experienced from the betrayal and how it ate her up inside.

I saw it this weekend too. And it was sad, but you could see how the hate she hung on to ate at her. Then when she finally tried to end it and turned her back on that man, he tried to stab her in the back again! I guess sometimes the betrayer just is not going to let go. But the only thing I can say is I want to get my wings back, kick butt in court, and then let it all go!!!

I'm not a bradjoelina fan, but I loved the movie.

Interesting...

now I want to see it, which is good, because I think my little nephew is going to make me.

I kind of like that whole good/bad character duality. It's why I loved the original Oldboy. The good guy isn't really that good. The bad guy isn't all bad.

Sounds like an interesting movie.
