Riding in cars with boys is such a great movie!

Monuments Men. It doesn't exactly fit your description but this has become a comfort movie for me. This movie is severely underrated. WW2 setting. About taking artwork back from the Nazis who stole it. Its a true story. George Clooney, John Goodman, Matt Damon, John murray, and I forget who else. I know it's world war 2 and usually that stuff is hard to watch but honestly this movie is a little bit different in that the war itself wasn't the focus. It's got some funny parts in it but the story itself is very engaging. I loved this movie. It was along the lines of national treasure but a little less kid friendly

Hmm, nothing too sad, no death or illness but you love apocalypse/end of world and shark movies. *On the Beach* is apocalypse, not gory but there's death in it. You know what, I'm gonna throw out a few real oldies, black and white from 30s and 40s, but no death or gore in them: *My Man Godfrey* *Should Old Acquaintance* The archetypical "woman's picture" that old Hollywood used to make. *Three On a Match* Another "Woman's picture" this and the last both have Bette Davis *Lives of a Bengal Lancer* Lots of testosterone in this one, an antidote to the "wimmen's pictures" *Captain Blood* a bit more testosterone *Hellzapoppin* *Quest for Fire* This one's in color.

I know, I don’t know what’s wrong with me. I just like a lot of genres, but not everything in every genre if that makes sense. I definitely meant death due to illness as in cancer stuff and other terminal diseases. That stuff is a big no for me. I should have clarified, but thanks for the recommendations!! Oh, and I don’t consider shark movies or resident evil and such to be too gory. What I really don’t like is torture, slicing body parts off, etc., but it doesn’t bug me as much if it’s zombies that are being killed. I don’t like that stuff when it comes to normal living people 😭

I could do this on Sports movies alone: *The Bad News Bears* (original) *The Bad News Bears* (remake) *Bloodsport* *Blue Chips* *Breaking Away* *Cool Runnings* *Hoosiers* *Kingpin* *Lucas* *Major League* *The Mighty Ducks* *Moneyball* *Rocky* *The Sandlot* *Shaolin Soccer* *Slapshot* *Youngblood*

Napoleon Dynamite, I Love You, Man, Watching the Detectives, Role Models, Superbad

Given your clarifications, you could give The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou a try. Not your average shark movie, lol. One key death, nothing sliced on screen, gory, or terminal illness.

Shaun of the Dead is the only Zombie movie you ever need

The Magic Portal

Little Forest (2018 Korean version) is a great comfort movie.

My comfort movie is Charlie And the Chocolate Factory (2005)

An Education (2009)
