Thought it was time to start a new poll.

What movie (or scene in a movie)always makes you cry...no matter how many times you see it?

The part where the son is talking to his dad and says:

"Dad...

you're my dad...

and...

well...

I

LOVE

YOU

MAAAAANNNNN!!"


That gets me everytime...

Oh wait, do commercials count?

A friend is someone who knows the song in your heart and can sing it back to you when you have forgotten the words.

I am almost as bad michelle. nickname ... blubbergirl. I love as corney as it may sound Sound of Music .. when they finally admit to loving each other and sing outside to each other. AND just about any love story. I am female.

It would definently have to be City of Angels for me, I mean hello why did she have to close her eyes while riding her bike? But yeah I always cry when I watch it. I think I have seen it at least 20 times.

Love,
Rach

I like Sound of Music too. Must be a girl thing...
And thanks for the warning! I will definitely not go see City of Angels...

I still get choked up when they freeze Han Solo and Chewbacca is crying. And then when they almost get to Boba Fett's ship and get there just as he takes off....the look on Leia's face rips my heart out (of course at 12 years old I was thinking "here's my chance!!!") Of course I saw it the first time around there you didn't know what was gonna happen in "Return of the Jedi"....you had to wait 3 years to find out.

Of course and maybe I'm the only one, but at the end of "Return of the Jedi" when Luke has the funeral for his father and the Jedi theme music starts and the camera keeps panning back & forth between Luke and the image of Darth Vader's body burning on the funeral pyre. That part really gets to me.

Hey now...I really DID cry on both of those parts...

the end of armageddon always gets to me!



------------------
The best place is not the last place where you messed up in the first place!

I know it isn't exactly a movie, but I always cry at the show "A Baby Story" on the learning channel and sometimes the wedding story one too. Gee, I could just go on and on ....

the end of "Stepmom":

Julia Roberts tells a dying Susan Sarandon that one day Anna will be getting married and her (Julia's) biggest fear is that she'll be thinking "I wish my mom was here."
And Susan says "and mine is that she won't."

Now I didn't cry during that but was revolted and horrified at the scene where the mom is tucking the kids into bed as the ship is sinking!!!

THEY DID NOT HAVE TO GO THERE!!!!

That made my stomach turn!
(if I could have gotten over being horrified at the director I mighta got sad though)

(Still gotta leave the room when that part comes on! Yech!)

FOREVERCHANGED STOP READING THIS POST HERE

Ebie, I start in "Steel Magnolias" when they unhook the machines and the movie goes silent and all you see is Sally Field still holding julia's hand and crying.

I think Steel Mags is my all time favorite movie. I am so glad the directore saw the need for comic relief at the points that he did... When Sally Field screams "I just want to hit something" and Olivia Dukakis throws Shirley McLaine in front of her and says..."Here...Hit This!!!" "Half the town would give their eye teeth to take a whack at Weeza!!!" OMG, I thought I would bust!!!

*sigh* totally cool movie...

pretty much any football movie where the starting players get hurt
lik varsity blues ....when billy bob got hurt i cried...not only because they named me after him in football practice but becuz he was a big guy and big guys alwayz get it bad...so this ones for you billy bob...
i love big peeple

What about books? Where The Red Fern Grows always makes me cry. The first time I read it, I was on the couch crying for two hours. My family thinks I'm crazy.

You may be right...

you may be crazy...



There really isn't a movie that consistently makes me cry, tho I do have memories as a youngun of a movie that seemed to play once a year or so and this beautiful dark-haired girl would have to move away from her boyfriend (they were both maybe 10 or 12), that scene where they say goodbye always made me cry...

You may be right...I may be crazy...but I just may be the lunatic you're looking for. Sorry...there's this song...and, well what Allen said reminded...oh, nevermind.

(ps, I really did skip the parts about steel magnolias. I vow to rent it sometime this month and watch it for the first time ever. I'll bring my excedrin with me. )

Anybody ever heard a song that made them cry? hehehe...cause that song "the Christmas shoes" I cried the first time I heard it..but then it got old fast...

Anybody else??

When a Man Loves a Woman with Meg Ryan

(the movie, not the song. )

The scene in Joe Dirt where Brandy tells him his parents have been dead all these years...

Joe Dirt.......

What a tear jerker!!!!!!!!

(snic)

See, I thought you guys would feel the same... it's almost as bad later when he finds out his parents aren't dead, but never looked for him in the first place - they left him on purpose

Thats alright my wife got all sad during those times and kept getting all embarrased over the fact that she was doing it!!!! rofolol

(I might have gotten sad but I was still in tears of laughter from the other parts, being from east Texas that movie hits too close to home roflolollolol)

You said it...

ome izwher yu make ed...

The movie Maid to Order gets me every time when I hear that song I can still shine. Gets me to tears and to thinking.

"Attack of the Clones" when Amidala and Anakin are about to be taken into the arena to be executed and she turns to him and says "I love you" for the first time.

The part where his mother dies is sadder. I thought she was kindof a tease. Here, let me sit on the couch wearing black leather with my boobs hanging out in the dark living room by the fireplace and stare deeply into your eyes..."but we shouldn't do this. It would destroy us".

Odd as it sounds the end of "Winnie the Pooh" where Christopher Robin tries to explain to pooh that he wont be able to play anymore because he is growing up and has to go to school...

(I hated the thought of ever growing up, come to think of it I still hate that.......)

Why is that odd?? I would have put that but I couldn't type it without crying.

Shindler's List...Took me 2 wks. to recover.

I may have already posted this, I don't remember but I Dreamed of Africa made me sob and I had trouble catching my breath...

lol...I didn't mean they were sagging....yep, they were pushed up almost to her throat (not that you noticed), and hanging over the front of her dress just a tad...

Boobs. Which brings me to the Favorite line in a movie thread. Gotta go there.

The passion... so i hear i really want to go see it
