Poll: Has music/TV/a film ever made you cry?

[JBarracudaL]

I've cried during all three, especially music.
I've also cried while reading a few books and during some moments of game plots. (Shadow Hearts Covenant and the Digital Devil Saga series come to mind.)
I win no awards for masculinity.

 

[Daveman]

I cried when I finished "mostly harmless". Those books are my life.

Also, I wanted to cry in "Starter for 10" when he answers the question too early... but I understood it needed to happen.

Also, surprisingly, "I am Legend" which is I am well aware is a rubbish film, but I full on wept aloud in the cinema when will smith strangled his dog... just to give you an idea of how sad I was, you might like to know that I'm crying as I write this...

Where's the option for, "All of the above options have reduced me to tears."?

For the record, tvtropes has an extensive list aptly titled "Tearjerkers." I read the entire thing one night. Calvin and Hobbes broke me. Absolutely broke me. Here. Cry with me.

And has anyone watched Click? A child comedy that has one of the most depressing endings I've ever seen.

That film was depressing throughout..

Exit music(For a film) - radiohead
True love waits - radiohead.... wait no i think most radiohead songs are depressing. Gaahh depressionhead go away from my ipod nooooo go away.

Music and films make me cry. Basically when I know I'm in the presence of greatness. Proust, Beckett, Sergio Leone, Nico, free jazz. The best, wildest and heartfelt expressions of humanity should always make you cry otherwise you're just an empty husk, brother.

 

[SamuraiAndPig]

I'm not a crier at all but there's one Rasputina song, 'Our Lies,' that gets me all emotional. Really great piece of composition.

 

[Hoppetussa]

Haven't cried at a movie or any form of entertainment since I was 7.

It's called "Man", try it some time ;P

I see what you did there.

 

[Jovlo]

Last time I actually cried during a movie was when I was watching AI (Artificial Intelligence) now a few years ago.
Fantastic movie but so very sad.

 

[ideitbawx]

look for the song "and all that could have been" by nine inch nails (it was on a bonus disc for the live album of the same name). amazing

 

[ICantBelieveItGoesBoom]

i cried to the scene in click where adam sandler died though admittedly i would hav a party if it really was him dieing

 

[Teachingaddict]

i dont cry much but a few things have:
Naruto: when Zabuza and Haku die
Wolf's Rain: when Toboe dies
Bicentennial Man: the ending
The Lion King: when Mufasa dies (there seems to be a theme here)
Grave of the Fireflies: almost cried but not quite, did get a bit watery eyed

Bicentenial man gets me all the damn time

Actually i'm quite insulted by the "be a man" comments, I'm a "man", never had to question that fact, so fecking what if im in touch with my emotional side.

 

[zSgt PePPeR]

Dont think i have ever broken into tears but films get me pretty close.That scene in Armageddon where Bruce Willis sacrifices himself really got.Everybody hurts by REM can do it aswell.

 

[Jamash]

Of Mice and Men was emotionally crushing at the end.

And has anyone watched Click? A child comedy that has one of the most depressing endings I've ever seen.

Click made me cry, specifically the part where his Dad dies and he realises how much time he wasted and quality time he missed with his Dad.

My Dad died a few years ago and the exact same sentiments had been suppressed inside me, hidden in my subconscious.

I was expecting Click to be a typical Adam Sandler film, like Happy Gilmore, and I was happily watching it when all of a sudden BAM! that scene happened and hit me like a ton of bricks. It mirrored all my suppressed emotions and left me a blubbering wreck.

It was the last thing I expected from an Adam Sandler film, but in retrospect it was healthy that it happened.

I haven't seen that in so long, made me sad that film did.

 

[Fightgarr]

Is there any "all of the above" option?

 

[rottenbutter]

The only movie that has ever made me cry was Grave of the Fireflies.

Spoiler: Especially the...

cremation scene.

That part really got me choked up.

 

[J-Man]

The shit I've heard on UK radio is enough to make any man kill himself, or have a teary breakdown.

Would that include Brand and Ross?

 

[xXyZaThEx]

Lion King 2 was a very sad movie if you watched the first one.

You keep expecting Simba to die, because that's how Mufasa went.

That made me cry with laughter.
