These movies, I swear. I can't believe some Humans are actually like that.
A good list for me would be:
- Gattaca (When the rocket takes off)
- The Pianist (When he plays for the German officer)
- The Wrestler (when he gets rejected by his daughter, that's shit so sad)
- The Iron Giant , You stay, I go
- Blue Valentine (the saddest movie I've ever seen after Grave of the Fireflies)
- October Sky (when his father finally gets it)

Love this. Thanks, I really do appreciate it.Ohh trust me, I am right there with you my friend. Having an overactive sense of empathy can certainly be a double-edged sword, but I think of it overall as a gift.❤
Just please remember: Don't be afraid to take yourself out of social situations when you need to recharge, don't let others take advantage of your kindness, and avoid people with narcissistic personality disorder when at all possible. We are like a battery for those people, and they will drain us dry if we let them.
I laughed at first because I recently had to cut someone out of my life for that very reason, the narcissism. It was like you knew me lol.

I'm so glad to hear you were able to escape them before they could cause you more harm. Never feel bad for protecting yourself!
what movie is this?pretty sure this thread already happened but ya one of the problems with movies is that you know they're not real so its very difficult for me to trigger that emotional sadness to tear up.
but then there are the rare exceptions because it actually was real.

Kate Winslet tired and broken voice killed me. I went back to theaters to see the 3d release. Man that scene killed everyone in the room.
The ending scene where 'everyone is reunited' get me a little too but I also think how unfair that scene is for Roses husband lol

That ending is beautiful.

Train To Busan ALWAYS makes me cry no matter how many times I've seen it. When his daughter cries and the father has the flashbacks of his daughter being born makes me weep like a fool.
There was another film I watched when I was younger that made me cry as well. It was called The 3 Wishes Of Billy Grier, starring Ralph Macchio. For some reason the ending of this film really got to me.

At least you see the positive side

Yup:
21 Grams - Naomi Watts crying on the bed listening to the last voicemail from her husband over and over
Good Will Hunting - “It’s not your fault”, to this day I can’t get through that scene without welling up
Saving Private Ryan - when Wade (the medic) is telling the story in the church about how he regrets pretending to be asleep when his mother got home from work, effectively shunning her affection. “I don’t know why I did that”, hits home
I think I got so emotional because of the scene itself, but I also just fucking loved the movie and was sad it was over, lol.

I remember my brother walking in when I was crying at the end of Terminator 2, I pretended I fell over and hit my head.

Yeah Logan was definitely the most unexpectedly hard-hitting superhero film I've ever seen. Damn near depressing.
On topic: I enjoy getting involved in movies emotionally and will often tear up in big emotional moment scenes (Rey picking up Luke's saber against Kylo, Endgame ending, etc.). Conversely I seem to not get emotional in tear-jerker drama films. I'm weird.

Essentially a whole bunch of Robin Williams and Tom Hanks movies.
A couple not mentioned yet being Cast Away and What Dreams May Come.
I’ll toss in Armageddon because the Liv Tyler goodbye scene gets me sometimes.

I held it together, but bizarrely, my glasses broke and fell off my face when the credits rolled.

I didn't really like Coco all that much, as I thought they really watered-down land of the dead setting when we've seen it done so creatively before. Grimm Fandango, or Corpse Bride comes to mind. It had the atmosphere of just another kid friendly Pixar world. Bright lights, upbeat music, no real stand out characteristics, Felt a tad safe.
But the last 20 minutes or so crammed in so much emotion that my cold heart couldn't take it anymore and I started tearing up.

The scene that gets me is when he is leaving and sees that gold ring and says I could have saved a couple more people.

this song makes me think of dekker, drunk and stumbling around his dark apartment looking looking sad and lonely, which makes me think of my drinking days doing kind of the same thing. so not exactly a scene, but there are a several scenes in blade runner that get me all feely, for a multitude of reasons. the tears in rain part is a whole other post lol.

I tend to cry when it comes to brave men fighting for a cause, for example:
- Inglorious Basterds (why did they have to sacrifice themselves?)
- Rob Roy (oh damn you, Archibald Cunningham!)
- The Devil's Own (OMG, beautiful Brad Pitt fighting for his Irish fellowmen)
- Vikings (death of both Ragnar and Björn, made me weep like a child)
Might be a strange choice, but Black Hawk Down when Shugart and Gordon try to establish a perimeter around the downed Black Hawk. The act of volunteering to drop down to near certain death to help your injured brothers is a powerful one.
Oh and 13th Warrior :
Movie was a bomb in the box office,, and critics absolutely hated it, but I enjoyed it back in the day.

played a lot of sports as a kid, mostly football. we won some big games and lost some big ones. ive definitely had that experience on the field where a big game was on the line and we just came up short a few points or a few yards, and yeah some of us cried. its tough to deal with because youre supposed to be a man and not cry and all that. but i think as long as youve poured your whole heart into something like that, its okay to cry.
there were games just like this one where we were woefully outmatched, had no business even making it that far to be honest, against a team that were like giants compared to us, and we gave it 120%. we bleed on our jerseys and bruised our ribs all up, and almost won, but in the end just didnt quite make it.
friday night lights captures that feeling perfectly in this scene. its bittersweet because you knew what you did was amazing, and you gave it your all, but you just wanted that win so bad, and couldnt have it. i guess you cant win them all... but the memories made with your buddys who become like brothers, and the victories you did capture make it all worth it. i cried the last time i dressed just because i knew id never play football again. of all the things from my childhood i wish i could go back and do all over again, football is top of the list, hands down no contest
the part where billingsley's dad puts the ring on his finger and hugs him always gets me
