What movie or scene from a movie (or show) makes your eyes misty?
You must log in or # to comment.
The first minutes of Up.
Why is anything else listed here?
Because the question isn’t, “the most.” And even then, that’s subjective.
Grave of the fireflies… Sometimes the trailer is already enough… F*** can’t even rewatch the thing…
I watched it once, and cried for two hours. Not going through that again!
I always recommend it… But also with the warning: You will only be able to watch it once!
I was looking for the movie when I opened the thread. I remember buying the special edition DVD, watched the movie, and put it away. It broke me, and I’ll never forget it! One of the best movies ever created.
I watched it once and didn’t cry but I must’ve been dissociated AF or something because I don’t remember any of it.
The breaking point for me is when his sister is chewing on the bottons.
I’ve never seen the movie. Reading the summary was enough to mess me up. I don’t think I’ll ever be able to watch it.
Been a while but probably the opening sequence of Up
A few episodes of Futurama. You can guess which ones.
Tap for spoiler
Jurassic Bark?
That’s one for sure.
Edit: but not the biggest culprit for me
Luck of the fryrish always gets me
Philip J. Fry was named after Phil Hartman.
To carry on his spirit.
Yeppp that’s another one
Edit: still not the biggest one for me
The one where Nixon’s reelected hits too close to home.
“I have been, and always shall be, your friend.”
-Spock, Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan
The scene in Interstellar when he returns from the time dilation to watch like 40 years of updates he missed from his kids.
The original Fresh Prince when Will is desperately trying to convince himself he doesn’t need his dad. Every time.
It’s funny that for having such a full career I still think Fresh Prince was an absolute masterpiece and unequaled by anything else Will Smith did. (Second place was probably the original Men in Black).
Link for the uninitiated.
“How come he don’t want me, man?” And the way Phil grabs him for the hug 😭💔
The last 15 minutes of “The Return of The King,” starting with, “My friends… You bow to no one.”
Every. Damn. Time.
Seen this more times than I can count, and tears every time.
Yes. Bawling like a baby!
“where do you think we are?”
The context is what makes this powerful. The buildup, the misdirection, the reveal.
This was Scrubs at its best. McGinley should have won an Emmy right there.
Ending of the Sixth Sense.
“Grandma says you asked her a question. She says to tell you the answer is ‘every day’, what was the question, momma?”
“Did I make you proud?”
What dreams may come, 1998 movie with Robin Williams.
That’s a good one, another good Robin Williams is Patch Adams.
Spock: “I have been and always shall be your friend” [dies]
Kirk: “No….”
Opening for “Up” not in the top comments?
A lot of seens in Logan with Professor X. His mental decline was a gut punch because I was watching my grandfather go through the same thing at the same time. His portrayal was spot on.
Happy with Stark’s daughter on the porch talking about cheeseburgers. Such a small moment, but so genuine feeling.
Birdman (with Michael Keaton) - nothing in the actual movie but the absolute soul crushing sadness when I realized that they weren’t making a Harvey Birdman Attorney at Law movie.
You want a tearjerking Michael Keaton movie, watch My Life. Hydrate afterwards, plenty of electrolytes, you’re welcome.
