    When I'm in a rotten mood, and the world is not spinning in my favor, and I feel like a huge loser and I'm wondering if I'm a good person, I feel oddly cheered up if Bad Santa comes on TV, because that guy is a huge loser and 90% evil but he finds a happy ending and love ,in the most messy way possible.

    Are there any movies that cheer you up when you're down in the dumps?

    Most inspirational movies usually cheer me up, especially ones that have a happy ending. I find this more likely for movies that are based on true events and people, and even though I'm sure they are exaggerated a fair amount, I still fiend them good enough to lift my spirits. A particular favorite of mine is Finding Neverland with Johnny Depp. There's are a few flaws with this movie, but I love the story and it t just works for me overall because I already love the Peter Pan story to begin with so finding out the story behind its creation is very interesting to me.

    When I am down, I need to watch some funny movie with Robbin Williams or Adam Sandler. One of my favourite movies is "Mrs Doubtfire", which still cracks me up even though I must have watched it at least 30 times or more by now. Another great favourite of mine is "Don't mess with the Zohan". I just have to laugh, thinking about those movies.

    Mrs Doubfire was a really hilarious movie! That movie always cheers me up too. Wonder what the kids who played in in it are up to now.

    I love watching Little Miss Sunshine. Whenever I am just all the way down, this film really help because it reminds me there is someone out there having it more rough than me. Also I think the film was done beautifully and it was a simple story about a girl wanting to go to a beauty pageant. I love it!

    I like watching the movie Clue whenever I need to be cheered up. It is hilarious watching them solve the murders. The characters are all funny, especially Wadsworth. He is a riot. I never thought I would like a movie based on a game, but I really enjoyed it.

    tye movie Up is a happy movie for me. The old man tries so hard to not be a nice person just because he is sad. The little boy makes him see how helping someone else can be a good thing and a winning situation for both of them. The dogs "Squirrel" is so funny.
