Any time my wife and I are watching a horror movie and see a pet, I immediately pause and go check.

If the answer is yes, I look for the times to skip, and ask her if she wants to keep watching knowing what happens.

So far we've only ever skipped parts for two movies, usually it's just a "let's find another movie"

I can't even listen to that song anymore. That movie ruined it for me.
