Title: Films that make you cry.
Post by: Keaton on July 26, 2008, 11:07:56 AM
Let's be honest.  If you're here at TDC, you're not a normal person.  We don't judge here, and we love you.  So it's okay to lay things bare here, right?

Here, if it'll take away some of the stinging shame of honesty, I'll go first.  If the 28-year-old ex-Marine can do it, so can you, right?

Pirates of the Caribbean, numbers 2+3.  Whenever the song of Jones and Calypso came on, I just bloody lost it... especially when Jones was beating it out on the organ.  Just so... sad, romantic, cute?

Anyhow, your turn.

Okay, there's this movie from Ireland called 'The Wind That Shakes the Barley' and I lost it in the end when the Colonel had to stand and not only watch the firing squad kill his brother, but had to order them to do it, and then again when he was hugging the dead body and sobbing, and then again when he had to deliver the news to his brothers wife and she said she never wanted to see him again. And then again when the rebels had to shoot a 17 year old kid that they all knew since he was little. :'(

The Lion King, and Fox and the Hound when I was younger.

I-I recently cried at WALL-E, and Donnie Darko got me going at the end.

Oh God, Wall-E just wrecked me at the end.

The commercials make me feel like crap. I haven't even seen the movie and I've cried about it.

I cry EVERYTIME I watch the Lion King and Mufasa dies.
This sucks because I have an RS teacher who makes us watch it at the end of every year, I still love the film though.

I also got a all teary-eyed during Homeward Bound, This Is England, ET and Princess Mononoke. There are loads more, I cry easily.

"Meet Joe Black" had me in tears. I didn't really cry at the end of Wall-e but it was still really sad.

Watch the movie.

You'll have to watch the movie to find out. Or PM someone who knows. I won't tell, probably.

UH. getting back on topic, I also almost cried in Edward Scissorhands and The Nightmare Before Christmas when I was a kid.

Yeah.

Beat that.

Oh, come on. He's the main character! Deus ex machina always saves an anime protagonist! :P

Besides, 4Kids is supposed to avoid death like the plague.


...Okay, maybe it wasn't deus ex machina... The tears were actually introduced early on in the film, so it wasn't exactly unlikely... Darn definitions...

Whenever I hear the song "If Only Tears Could Bring You Back" from the first Pokemon movie I think of all those pokemon crying. Which makes me want to cry.
I don't know why I put the Pokemon Movie Soundtrack on my iPod.

Post by: kamakaziplumber on July 26, 2008, 02:01:27 PM
>.> The only one I can think of right now, is Toy Story. The movie, the theme song... hearing the theme song anywhere does it. I was tearing up in the middle of Disney World last time I went. During a parade. So, yeah.

Oh man, I hated when Latios died in Pokemon 4ever. I was really upset about that.

Of course, I have an excuse, since I'm a woman.

Also, Tacheon, I loved that when I first saw it, and I still love it.

I believe I cried a bit during Mr. Holland's Opus...

Can't help if I can relate to the deaf guy...

Mr. Holland's Opus was great. I thought the saddest part was when the mom realized that her son was deaf.

But then again, I wondered how a mother could go four years without realizing her child is deaf.

He wasn't 4 years old when that parade happened, he was still a baby.

I cried in one certain part of "Click" by Adam Sandler.
If any of you saw the movie, I bet you could guess which part. I have NEVER cried during a movie- like ever! I don't exactly know what clicked inside my mind, but I cried during that movie.

Post by: Takun on July 27, 2008, 03:03:00 PM
I cried during this movie, I think it was called Hardball. It's supposed to be about this rag-tag group of middle school baseball player who are going through a lot of crap and live in this really bad neighborhood.  But I cried at the part where the day before the bid game happened, two of the youngest players were walking home, they were also brothers, and they got in the middle of a drive by shooting and one died.  I cried right there in the movie theater. :'( :'(

Hmm, movies....Crap, I can't remember any that made me cry (at least not from being incredibly stupid).  However, near the end of the 5th Harry Potter book when Harry and Dumbledore are talking about the prophecy I always get this buring, constrictive feeling in my throat that I associate with feeling sad.  Then there's the end of the Fullmetal Alchemist episode where Mae Hughes is buried, as I said in a topic very much like this a while back.

I tear up during "Forrest Gump". Twice in fact, (10 YEAR OLD SPOILER!!!) *highlight* when Bubba dies, and then when Jenny dies (END 10 Year OLD SPOILER!!!)

I also cried the first time I saw the pokemon episode where Ash leaves Pikachu behind with the wild Pikachus.

Wait...wasn't that the first movie? I thought 2000 was with Lugia and with a The Day After Tomorrow-esque plot.
Title: Re: Films that make you cry.
Post by: cacturnerules on August 02, 2008, 06:02:12 PM
2000 was with mewtwo and the one with lugia and tracey was the second

EDIT: oops. i mean lugia was 2000 and mewtwo was the 1st... i cried in the 1st movie... sorry about the mix-up
Title: Re: Films that make you cry.
Post by: Commodore Axilon on August 02, 2008, 06:06:48 PM
2000 is the one with Lugia

Ash is a retard.
