Miscellaneous TV shows and movies
This article is about miscellaneous TV shows and movies that do not have enough relevance to Christory to warrant an independent article.
Cannibal Holocaust
Cannibal Holocaust, released in 1980, is a horror film known for its extreme gore and nudity (including pickles).
In late July 2010, Jackie suggested that Chris watch the movie. While he was reluctant, over not liking cannibalism, he agreed to watch it.[1]
The following month, Chris wrote that he was bothered by the gore in the movie, but chalked it up to "Hollywood magic" to cope with it (despite the fact that there are real, onscreen animal deaths). He also described a rape scene as "I liked the part where the professor lured out the women of the tribe to play with him in the water."[2]
Donnie Darko
“ | But long story short: We OCs and FCs - that’s Original Characters and Fictional Characters - we all exist to coexist, right next to an invisible curtain divide that’s invisible for the most part, but you can sense it. If you watch the movie Donnie Darko and that liquid metal barrier, It’s essentially that. | ” |

Chris summing up a plot point.[9] |
In a chat with The Place from December 2020, Kyle pondered over the concept of empty dimensions, and Chris replied that the only real one is a void between dimensions. Chris cited the animated movie Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths as proof (though misremembered its title as "Justice League Infinite Crisis").[9]
The Justice League franchise itself has been referenced by Chris in other contexts. His OC CWC Psychlight rips off from Justice League settings and characters. Justice League is also commonly included in Chris's descriptions of what his fantasy dimension C-197 contains.[10][11][12]

Chris on Steven's absence from his fantasy dimension[15] |
Chris is a fan of Steven Universe. His first known mention of it is from 28 July 2016, when he wrote in a Facebook post that it's a good show, that his favorite of the lead gem characters is Pearl, and that the lesbian characters Ruby and Sapphire's relationship is sweet.[16]
In a paid video request from September 2016, Chris talked about why he likes Pearl.[17]
The 40-Year-Old Virgin
After Chris had uploaded to Encyclopedia Dramatica his pornographic drawing ShecameforCWC.JPG, which depicted himself and Megan Schroeder, Megan sent an email to Chris expressing her anger and hurt over the image. In his 14 March 2008 email reply, Chris tried suggested she rent the movie The 40-Year-Old Virgin so that she could empathize with his position of being a frustrated virgin and be exposed to sexual issues, even offering to loan her his copy of the movie. Megan did not take him up on it, futilely attempting to explain to him her real reasons for being upset over his porn drawing of her.[18]
In Common Questions from December 2009, Chris listed the movie among his top 5 favorites.
In Mailbag 35 from January 2010, Chris said he has watched the movie over 20 times and has owned an unrated DVD of it since release day.

Chris also told The Place to watch the three Annabelle movies for their Movie Night but said he would not join them, as his dream mandated that he watch the six franchise movies on his own (and with his imaginary friends Rosechu and Mewtwo). Chris implied that watching the movies would help in unlocking the Dimensional Merge.[19]
