same thing happened to brandon gephardt in california. >> i was shaking. last thing they remembered, bella's graphic birthing scene, where flashes of red, white and black lights flicker on the screen, almost like a strobe light. experts say brandon likely suffered an epileptic seizure. >> red is one of the most provocative colors when flashed to provoke a seizure. >> reporter: it's not the first time that people have gotten sick from their favorite flick. in '127 hours" the movie about a trapped hiker, reports that moviegoers fainted from shock during the amputation scene. even worse, blockbuster "avatar." one man reportedly died while watching this movie. his doctors blamed overexcitement. and in 2008, "cloverfield," a thriller about a monster in new york city. there's a facebook page that says "cloverfield" made me sick. loved the movie. hated what it did to my stomach. the next time brandon's girlfriend wants to go to a movie, maybe they should choose something a little lighter. no reports of "the muppets" making anyone sick. for "good morning america,"

dick gephardt, thanks for joining us. a star is broken. amazing reception.g about them, as they proceeded. amazing stuff. >> okay. chill and thrill, not tingle, which is the favorite word of the right wing. it's great, they love to giggle with themselves. they make up words, make fun. words and apply them to somebody else. i have never heard such an amazing statement about our american exceptionalism, if you will, a phrase i like;h!ecauset means somebody can make it in this country based on merit. that's my american exceptionalism. i will proudly salute it and be thrilled when it's spoken well. was he just too good? was it possible that he was so stirring in those rooms we saw up in new hampshire and iowa that you had to expect much more? >> it's a couple of things. number one, people forget how excited they were about presidents in the past. that's part of the cycle of disallusionment. you row -- romanticize the past. people were very excited about jimmy carter when he gave his acceptance speech in 1976. you know, kennedy, you can go back in time. democrat

at that point, he and newt gingrich and tom delay or in the oval office with the democrats, dick gephardtd bob dole and tom daschle watching the food fight unfold. i did say to dick armey when he was getting very macho with me -- [laughter] i tell them, you have to understand, i don't care if i go to 5% on opposed, you will have to get someone to sit behind that desk before you get this done. all the president's -- all the democrats were thrilled. all of our liberal base always thinks the president is going to cave. just like the conservatives are always afraid the republicans are going to cave. anyway, we had this meeting and then they left and the meeting was adjourned. the democrat's home around afterwards and they were all so happy. al gore looked at me and said, that was really great what you said, but i think you should have told him that you're going to hold out even if you when all the way to 0%. wattages top 5%? -- why did you stop at 5%? [laughter] and i said, how, if we get the 4%, i am going to cave. one lesson is that you have to keep a sense of humor here. i was aided in tha
