I use the site mentioned in the article almost every time I want to watch a movie. Its easy to dismiss it in terms of "pampering" or being too soft, but there are people who have lived and seen horrible things and do not want to be reminded of them.

It's also great as a nutrition label for media of sorts; "is this movie appropriate for a small get together?" is a question that's often hard to answer without a service like this.

I absolutely agree. Some of the categories may be out there, but there are some very real and very helpful warnings/descriptors on DTDD. One time I was going to watch Annihilation with my friends, but checking DTDD showed it was more body horror-y than any of us were ready for that night. We came back to it a while later knowing that and all thought it was a great movie. Sometimes, just going in with the knowledge so you can brace yourself is helpful.
