That's not the most recent, though. I don't want to think about the most recent incident. It was the only one of its kind in <url=http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/326.237875-Neutral-Drow-reviews-Crescendo>the game, and that just made it worse.
...I'm going to go wash my face and do something active. I wish that was a joke.
I can bring myself to tears simply by thinking about themes of self-sacrifice and unrequited love, the agony of loss, etc, so when I'm watching a film that draws on those themes I tend to need a tissue-box handy - that bit at the beginning of Up! was no exception, heh. Doesn't have to be a film either, books can be even more potent tearjerkers thanks to that aspect of my psychology.
Conversely, I am rarely if ever actually moved to tears by the events of my personal life, as that element of anguish just isn't there to trigger it - all my tears are of the vicarious variety.
The last time I cried was three years ago, even when my dog died I didn't cry (I wanted to but I couldn't). I don't undrstand crying it solves nothing, It's pointless.
Last time I remember crying due to a movie was at the end of Return of the King. Granted, I was pretty young at the time. Oh, and call me a complete nerd, but I choked up a bit when I heard the Elder Scrolls theme played live by an orchestra few years ago. What can I say, it's a fucking beautiful piece of music.
I usually don't cry when I'm actually sad though. Instead I just get rageface and bang my head against something.
cry? pah! im a man. men dont have tear glands, they have backup sweat glands in their eyes, for use when sweaty manly stuff gets especially sweaty and manly.

.... the end of green mile.
but generally speaking, i show about as much emotion as spock; im not even trying to hide it or anything, i just utterly fail at emotional expression through conversation.
psychological breakdown waiting to happen, i know, but what can you do?
edit: i NEARLY cried at the end of Toy Story 3, but thats because toys replaced human social interaction for the majority of my childhood, so those movies always hit close to home... thinking about it, im pretty sure video games do that job for me now. a websites title has never been more accurate.
I cry WAY too often at films and stuff. To this very day I can't watch Love Actually without crying at least twice.
It makes people think I'm a lot more girly than I actually am. I am pretty girly at times, but when I start tearing up at films and stuff people give me weird looks. Like when I teared up while watching WALL-E.
I cry at TV shows more than films. I cried at Doctor Who on regular occasions, and at Torchwood.
God I'm such a fag...
But I can't remember the last specific time I cried at a film/TV series.
Hey everone! I just finished watching 'UP', the animated pixar film, and before I start explaining anything, I'd just like to state; Damn, that was one hell of a good movie.
Now, I'm not a guy who is easily moved. Sure, I'm probably in contact with my feelings and all that, like the next guy, but save for one instance in Febuary I have not cried in years.
That all changed tonight though.
I was watching 'UP' and, this not being a sad movie, I was surprised at myself when I found enough water in my eyes 10 minutes into the movie, to actually make tears roll down my cheeks.
Of course I am referencing the scene
where Ellie dies and Carl is left all alone, without them having set out on their adventure together.
So there you have it: I've cried two times in years, when my dog died (rest his Soul) and when I watched 'UP'.
So here's one for you:
When was the last time you were saddened, happy or angry enough to shed a tear, if ever? (And are you easily moved?)
[sub]I'm not necessarily talking about wailing or incorehent speech with puffy red eyes. A simple tear down your cheek will do. As long as it wasn't because of the wind in your eyes.[/sub]
Two, I cry more in video games then I do movies. I cried at the end of Kingdom Hearts II out of happiness, I cried at the good ending of Bioshock 1, I cried at the good ending of The Force Unleashed II, and at almost every sad scene of Final Fantasy XIII.
Crying out of emotion....I never do. Tears to my eyes...yes, but never out of them. I'm a man dammit, I suck the moisture right back into my sockets. Been this way since I became a teenager.
