Unexpected tear-jerkers

[Guest Lord of The Curry]

What movies made you get emotional when you didn't really think you would?

 

My picks

 

- Braveheart. I still can't watch Gibson scream "Freeeeedoom" without getting teary eyed.

- The final scene between Pacino and Deniro in Heat.

- Bowling For Columbine. I'm Canadian so I have a weird dynamic with the movie but the scenes in which they're discussing Columbine and showing the footage got to me pretty bad.

- Boromir's death in Fellowship of the Ring.

[Guest Eagan469]

"Fluke" - I watched it with my cousins a few years back thinking it was your standard kids movie with a dog.

 

How wrong I was.

 

I was crying like a baby at the end.

[Guest CoreyLazarus416]

When Arnie is lowering himself into the molten metals to destroy ALL evidence of SkyNet and its productions, so that the future nuclear holocaust will never take place.

Spoiler (Highlight to Read):

[Guest SweetNSexyDiva]

A Walk to Remember... I didn't really know what the movie was about. I was just interested in Mandy Moore's acting debut. I bawled like a baby.

For me, it was Young Guns II. Similar happening...

 

Spoiler (Highlight to Read):

I actually shed a few tears when Doc died. I guess it may have been the mood I was in, but I thought that it was, like, absolutely freakin' sad. Wasteful, in a way.

[Guest RavishingRickRudo]

I was watching Forrest Gump for the bazillionth time the other day, and the scenes w/ Forrest and his dying mama, Forrest and Lil Forrest, and Forrest and Jennys grave, didn't have me crying, but I felt it comin on and was saying "you best not be cryin boy". Even after seeing it a ton of times it still gets me.

 

Chubs, Happy Gilmoure, Heaven... nuff...sayed.

[Guest bps "The Truth" 21]

Doc's death is one of my favorite death scenes in a movie. *sniff* damn allergies...   Anyway, I skipped YG2 because I hated that movie. Although Chavez y Chavez's death with the Spirit Horse was pretty cool

Moulin Rouge

 

Luhrman tells you straight up what's going to happen in the end but lulls you into a false sense of security EVERY TIME YOU WATCH IT and then it hits and I want to weep. And I did weep the first time. Sorta.

[Guest Bannable Offense]

Mrs. Doubtfire. Robin Williams' character's final plea during the court case. I don't know why it waters my eyes when I see that scene, it just does.

[Guest Spicy McHaggis]

A Walk to Remember... I didn't really know what the movie was about. I was just interested in Mandy Moore's acting debut. I bawled like a baby.

Damn straight.

 

You registered right after my WTR thread and the subsequent upheaval of me shedding my macho image and getting called a fag many times over. But now I have a chick-flick I can actually enjoy... and then I'll get some.

YES!!

 

Someone else gets it! I cry like a fucking baby every time I watch that movie. My b/f always freaks out.. "You know what's gonna happen, stop crying!!"

 

That is seriously one of the saddest movies ever.

 

Others that make me cry like a wee one..

 

-The Green Mile

-Gladiator (at the end.. *sob*)

-American Beauty

 

And I also cry at random happy parts in movies too. I'm such a girl.

[Guest Lord of The Curry]

Philadelphia :

Spoiler (Highlight to Read):

I didn't expect to cry at all but by the end scene where they're having the wake at Tom Hank's apartment w/ Neil Young in the background. I lost it. Uncontrollable sobbing for 5 solid minutes, made even worse by Denzel and his family showing up.

[Guest Nanks]

Yes!! Thank God I'm not the only one who felt teary at the end of Armageddon!! Phew!! I choked them back beautifully though, I couldn't believe it was getting to me like that. I was like: "What is this salty discharge??"
