I'm sorry for being so cheesy but

I was just thinking about this one the other day. There's a melancholy nature to it, reflecting what could have been but also that the two seem happy with what they have and grateful for what they had.

Marley and Me and A Dog's Purpose messed me up pretty bad, not going to lie. I try to avoid films with dogs in now.

Marley and me killed me on a plane journey. Almost in tears right now thinking about it.

Scared for life.

Anything with Dogs is a killer. Insta boo from me.

You just know any movie with a dog in it, its going to die in the third act.

 

[Trilobit]

Movie scenes that cut to black that force me to see the fat slob reflection of myself.

 

[RaptorGTA]

Big Fish from when the son begins telling the story till the end. Beautiful.

 

[Windle Poons]

I'd forgotten about Interstellar.

 

[NeverYouMind]

Not cry, but I genuinely think its a massively underrated film.

I can't say that I agree as it was a major downgrade relative to the source material.

 

[Connificent]

 

[clarky]

I'd forgotten about Interstellar.

That didn't make me cry but did give me the feels if you know what mean.

 

[Insane Metal]

Not a movie but damn.

 

[Men_in_Boxes]

I can't cry because I'm a man's man but in the right setting snot will drip out of my nose during this scene.

 

[The Fartist]

1st thing that came to mind:



Sean Baker is a great director.

 

[CastorSoze]

Dunno if an unusual choice but My Girl.
"He can't see without his glasses!"

And the old Lassie films, like Lassie Come Home. That poor brave dog went through so much.

 

[Azelover]

Shadows and dust.

When I saw this movie my father was dying. Whenever I see that scene I cry like a baby. The music alone will do it..

 

[mclaren777]

100% hit rate for making me cry...

I went into Marley And Me not knowing what happens at the end. I was a complete wreck afterwards

 

[Rran]

Most of the Rocky movies have at least one really emotional scene. Great series.

The two saddest movies I've seen are Grave of the Fireflies and (especially) Dear Zachary. Try to get through those without shedding a tear.

 

[Brigandier]

This was a hard watch when I was young!!
Fuck you HotRod you pink metal underpants wearing fucker you



Nowadays anything with animals dying genuinely upsets me even more than it did when I was younger.

 

[Jinxed]

Marley and Me will fuck me up every time. My german shepherd died in 2016 and I still can't think too much about it without losing it so that movie is too much for me

 

[MaestroMike]

 

[WhatDidHeSay?]

Big Fish from when the son begins telling the story till the end. Beautiful.

Came in for this. As well as the ending of Eternal Sunshine Of The spotless mind.

 

[EekTheKat]

Black Hawk Down - Shughart and Gordon sequence. The movie was a recreation of an actual event so it hits quite hard in context.





Warrior - Joel Edgerton is the older brother, Tom Hardy the younger brother. Nick Nolte as the father. A pretty good MMA movie with a pretty heavy family drama slant.

 

[Doom85]

As well as the ending of Eternal Sunshine Of The spotless mind.

That one gets me too, though for me it's Clementine talking about her doll and what it meant for her and then Joel begs in his mind to be allowed to keep this one memory, and then later them staying together in the beach house during his final memory of her.

 

[MilkyJoe]

I didn't know there were girls here

Your Name

Fucking love this movie so much. It's the only anime that I felt comfortable saying to family members "you should watch this movie with me" and I was right.

Also the ending gets me every single time. It teases you so much until the breaking point, and when it comes, my emotions just flood out.

I watched it recently for the first time and boy, did it hit hard! Had to read fan fiction of how the story could continue for the rest of the night!

 

[Doom85]

For everyone praising Your Name, I do think that movie is excellent, but I found the actual best anime film around that time to be A Silent Voice. It is NOT a light film (for those who mentioned showing anime to their family) as it covers extreme levels of bullying, suicidal depression, isolation, etc. but through all the pain the cast go through and the cruel actions that the main guy makes as a child that he seeks atonement for but questions deep down if he can ever be truly forgiven, it does end on an extremely satisfying and heartwarming note.

I even had a friend I knew in college who went on to become a sign language interpreter, and many years later she told me on Facebook this film got her into anime.

 

[DonkeyPunchJr]

Man everything about this movie fucked me up as a kid and still does today. Seeing the mom's desperation to save her kids amid all the death and chaos around her.




And this scene holy shit. Not a dry eye in the theater when I saw it.

 

[Brakum]

Movies like guardians of the galaxy vol:3 should be illegal

Nice choice. What an amazing movie.

Totally agree, beautiful movie.

 

[CastorSoze]

I remember watching A Silent Voice and don't think I was brought to tears but I definitely started to feel angry at how the kids treated the main girl. She was so friendly and nice to everyone and just wanted to be friends but they bullied her.

 

[Hookshot]

It didn't make me cry but Grave of the Fireflies is a horrible film that just tortures two kids. I still feel upset and annoyed about it. And yes I know its based on a true story and similar horrors happen to this very day but I can block the real world out like a psycho.

 

[Valonquar]

The ending to 6 feet under got me fairly choked up.

It still breaks my brain this was originally half of a double-bill with My Neighbour Totoro!

[Slothbeing1209]

This movie gets me every time .

 

[Gp1]

I'm sorry for being so cheesy but

I hate musicals in general but the flashback "what if" scene is brilliant and it gets me every time.

 

[Vlodril]

The lion king scene hit hard. The soundtrack was amazing.
