The autonomic nervous system is responsible for regulating involuntary functions such as digestion. The sympathetic nervous system is responsible for the "fight or flight" response and would not be activated during a relaxed activity such as watching a movie. The somatic nervous system controls voluntary movements and the peripheral nervous system includes both the autonomic and somatic systems.
