An expression used to describe when a character in a movie does something that
has no clear motivation whatsoever.
Originally used by I Hate Everything for his Search For The Worst series.
Like comfort food, a comfort movie is a movie that one watches to feel less shit and a movie that evokes many positive/lovely feelings in that one person.
"Everytime I feel down, I like to watch my comfort movie which is any one of the Harry Potter movies and eat my favourite comfort food, chocolate.""
