I personally think that alot of this ties into our talents and how we receive different things. That is a conversation for another time and place though.
But you didn't feel like you were about to get eaten by a dinosaur I hope. Doesn't it differ from person to person? I don't want to say it doesn't impact us at all. But to say we feed on bad energy then dare I say you (and me included 99% of the time, but not from movies/books) cannot control your feelings very well.

My question is does our "pain-body"(Tolle) feed of the energies transmitted via movies?
If I'm watching a movie "the 'energies' or 'emotions'" are definitely not real me. Not to the point that they interfere with "my" reality when the movie stops. That said, I rather watch Discovery then movies/sitcoms/etc. Into the Wild, that's a story that moved me. But definitely not your average tube material.

Also, Tolle's reality isn't everyones reality.
