18 WTF Moments From 2017's Summer Blockbusters

6. A Dog Eats Vomit...Twice - The Nut Job 2: Nutty By Nature

If you didn't get around to seeing The Nut Job 2...good for you. While it wasn't quite as unbearable as the original, it still featured one horrendous gross-out sequence as French bulldog Frankie (Bobby Cannavale) attempted to woo sassy pug Precious (Maya Rudolph).

Shortly after meeting, Frankie pukes up some of his half-digested food in order to feed a starving Precious, but she refuses to eat it. In a result that's only slightly less gross, Frankie then decides to eat his own puke instead. But it gets worse.

Seeing this, Precious then pukes up herself, which Frankie summarily decides to devour also. That anyone, anywhere thought that this was a suitable gag for a family-friendly comedy, even one as low-effort as this, is truly baffling.
