"I have been, and always shall be, your friend."

-Spock, Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan

[–] [email protected] 10 points 15 hours ago

Into the wild when he discovers that human existence isn't meant to be lived in isolation and then dies a few days later in total isolation.

The end of Saving Private Ryan always gets me as well.

Buffy the TV show, when she discovers her mother's dead body.

"Mom? MOM! ... Mommy?" Tears

[–] [email protected] 5 points 15 hours ago

She looked so lost, it hit me like a gut punch

[–] Aurenkin 30 points 20 hours ago

Been a while but probably the opening sequence of Up

Ending of the Sixth Sense.

"Grandma says you asked her a question. She says to tell you the answer is 'every day', what was the question, momma?"

"Did I make you proud?"

A few episodes of Futurama. You can guess which ones.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 20 hours ago (2 children)

Tap for spoilerJurassic Bark?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 14 hours ago

This one gets easier when you remember that they retconned it later.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 19 hours ago* (last edited 19 hours ago) (1 children)

That's one for sure.

Edit: but not the biggest culprit for me

[–] [email protected] 10 points 15 hours ago (2 children)

Luck of the fryrish always gets me

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 hours ago

Philip J. Fry was named after Phil Hartman.

To carry on his spirit.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 15 hours ago* (last edited 15 hours ago) (1 children)

Yeppp that's another one

Edit: still not the biggest one for me

[–] [email protected] 3 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Game of Tones?

There's like 5 episodes that people always mention. If it's not that, it's probably The Late Philip J Fry, The Sting, or Lethal Inspection

[–] [email protected] 1 points 14 hours ago* (last edited 14 hours ago)

Yeah that's all of them. Game of Tones makes me the most emotional. 🥹

Edit: just thinking about it is doing it right now lol

General Waverly walks out in uniform to find his old unit waiting for him. (“White Christmas”)

Cinema Paradiso. Wonderful Italian film about a boy’s relationship with an elder in the town as he mentally escapes war torn Sicily. Just wholesome and hits hard. It’s a beautiful story and the soundtrack by Ennio Morricone, ohhhh so good.

Toy Story 4. The scene where Woody says goodbye to the rest of the toys and goes off on his new adventure with Bo Peep. Gets me every time.

The original Toy Story was the first movie I remember seeing in a theatre so maybe there's some nostalgia contributing to that.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 17 hours ago

I found the entire concept, but especially the "happy ending" of Paulie to be tragic and extremely depressing to me.

My mother loved Beaches and Steel Magnolias but they always ruined my day. Then my mother died of cancer and they crossed into the unwatchable list.

I cry quite easily, so a small sample of films that have made my eyes misty are:

The Remarkable Life of Ibelin
Bridge to Terabithia
A Monster Calls

[–] [email protected] 6 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

+1 for bridge to terabithia. That movie still chokes me up.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

I was older and had never read the book. I was not prepared for that turn.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 13 hours ago

Yeah, I had no idea going into that movie. Almost all the movies AnnaSophia stars in are like that to my surprise.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 17 hours ago* (last edited 17 hours ago)
[–] [email protected] 7 points 19 hours ago

Another one is the movie 'The Fountain' which is played excellently by Hugh Jackman.

Ernest Goes to Camp, when the kids pick on him and reject him. He sings the song “All I Needed Was a Friend”. No joke, shit hits hard

My Life with Michael Keaton and Nicole what’s her name

[–] [email protected] 1 points 14 hours ago

The fault in our stars was so sad I wish I hadn't ever watched it. I hate that movie.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 14 hours ago

So my sister bought me the wind rises... I went it watching it thinking it was another fun film... I called her after I finished and told her I was not mentally prepared for that.

Such a beautiful film though...

[–] LambdaRX 4 points 19 hours ago

"A dog's purpose" movie's main purpose was to be tear jerker.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

It's not a movie, it's an old avertisement, and I guarantee you if it doesn't stir something in you, you're not human:

That crash was so cartoonish, I couldn't help but laugh at that.
