Chrissy Posted February 24, 2010 Posted February 24, 2010 UP, 'nuff said. It's the first time I ever cried in a cinema. I saw this on DVD at the weekend and I blubbed my way through the first part, and then again at the end. Quote
Univerze Posted February 25, 2010 Posted February 25, 2010 Oh yes that part was sad, I was holding back the tears then Holding back tears? I was just crying then, then again I am a lightweight when it comes to crying when watching films, I easily do so. Quote
chrysalis_stage Posted February 25, 2010 Posted February 25, 2010 Holding back tears? I was just crying then, then again I am a lightweight when it comes to crying when watching films, I easily do so. Awh. If I'm alone i'll cry but if i'm in company i'll try and hold it back as much as I can. Even with funny films that make you laugh until you cry, i'll try to not laugh as hard because when I start to cry with laughter it turns into sobbing and it looks like i'm upset Quote
Coffin Nail Posted February 25, 2010 Posted February 25, 2010 I'm a total sap when it comes to weeping at movies. My mother often tells the tale when I regularly had to be removed from the cinema for uncontrollable sobbing. Although I don't have to be removed anymore, there are movies and subject matter that I have to avoid, and it's mostly animal or cartoon related. I don't do Disney. I hate being emotionally manipulated by drawings!!! It's very embarrassing. On no account are the following allowed on my TV....even the theme tunes can set me off. Babe, Bambi, Dumbo, Pinoccio, Incredible Journey, that episode of the Simpsons when Homer meets his mum....then she leaves....am filling up just thinking about that....Watership Down, Finding Nemo, I's really odd, I watched hours of violence to people daily, can sit through the nightly news and be unmoved......a cartoon animal gets is ikkle paw hurt and I'm a snivelling mess. And there's the happy ending tears. And the 'oh my God isn't that horrendous' tears. It's exhausting. Should change my username from Coffin Nail to Soggy Blancmange. Quote

My cousin when younger was not allowed to watch 'The Lion King' because she would get so emotional and start to get violent towards people after the scene of Mufasa dying. 'The Fox and the Hound' gets me everytime, the bit where the old woman leaves Tod all alone in the woods. Quote
Coffin Nail Posted February 25, 2010 Posted February 25, 2010 Another two for my unwatchable list. [Hangs head in shame] Quote
Nollaig Posted February 25, 2010 Posted February 25, 2010 'The Fox and the Hound' gets me everytime, the bit where the old woman leaves Tod all alone in the woods. Oh man. That kills me. I need an entire box of tissues to get through that scene. I hate cruelty to animals more than cruelty towards people because, well, I hate people, but also because an animal doesn't understand it hasn't done anything wrong. It thinks, 'I'm sorry! I didn't mean to do whatever I did!' and comes crawling back trying to make up for it. Okay so I'm still applying human emotions to an animal but the fact is if I kicked my mother, she'd know I was in the wrong. If I kicked my dog, she'd roll over on her back stick her tail between her legs. And when the woman leaves Tod, not only is it heartbreaking, but Disney animate their animals with human expressions, so you can SEE Tod thinking, 'What? Why are you leaving me? What did I do wrong? Don't you love me?!?!' Okay I'm actually getting teary just thinking about it. Quote
Stephanie2008 Posted February 25, 2010 Posted February 25, 2010 Aww I know what you mean. It's because Todd tilts his head to the side. My dog does that when I have to leave him. I can't watch that movie, it's too sad. Disney films just try to make you cry, that's their sole purpose. Lion King, Bambi, Fox and the Hound, they're not kids movies at all Quote
pickle Posted February 25, 2010 Posted February 25, 2010 Lassie come Home as a child my mum had to stop me from watching it i got so upset..had a happy ending though Quote
Nicola Posted February 25, 2010 Posted February 25, 2010 'The Fox and the Hound' gets me everytime, the bit where the old woman leaves Tod all alone in the woods. This gets me everytime too (even my Sister cries at this movie and it's a well known fact that she has a heart of stone ) Quote
nicx27 Posted March 6, 2010 Posted March 6, 2010 I've thought of another film that makes me sob - Incendiary, based on the book by Chris Cleave. Quote
