Miguel from Coco singning "Remember me" with Coco.
First season of After Life by Ricky Gervais.
The scene after where Gervais' character realizes fully what he has done, especially to himself long term, is soul crushing. The i did the right thing, but for all of the right and wrong reasons look on his face is haunting. I think it is the 2nd episode.
A lot of the episodes open with him watching his wife telling him to enjoy life. Her sitting on the hospital bed, on her final days because of cancer.
I hated gervais before this, i found his comedy delivery and style very grating but after watching this shoe and getting kicked in the guts every couple episodes i gave him another shot and dont mind him so much now. Show is a 10/10 if you want to sob silently with your partner.
He can be eyerollingly obnoxious. And he is becoming more and more out of touch.
He tends to have a heart and in the right place. His XFM auditions were the greatest proof of this.
The original Fresh Prince when Will is desperately trying to convince himself he doesn't need his dad. Every time.
Link for the uninitiated.
"How come he don't want me, man?" And the way Phil grabs him for the hug 😭💔
The first minutes of Up.
Man, worst second date ever. Had no idea what I was walking into in that theater
I took the kids to see some fun animation movie. Got totalled in the first few minutes.
"Some dust got in my eye. Here, you can eat my popcorn."
The last 15 minutes of "The Return of The King," starting with, "My friends... You bow to no one."
Every. Damn. Time.
The scene in Interstellar when he returns from the time dilation to watch like 40 years of updates he missed from his kids.
Opening for “Up” not in the top comments?
"little soldier boy" episode from Avatar: the last Airbender. Every time.
Buffy The Vampire Slayer, “The Body”.
Mom? Mom! Mommy?
S1E3 of Last of Us - "Long, Long Time." Happy and sad tears galore.
"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.
ANY time any dog dies.
'Hachi: A Dog's Tale' killed me
Star wars; the last Jedi
The Holdo maneuver.
Oh man, I forgot about the bicentennial man 🤖😢
The Bob's Burgers episode "The Amazing Rudy" (season 14, episode 2).
Regular-sized Rudy goes out to eat with his divorced parents and their new significant others. It goes horribly wrong and he runs away to the Belchers'. I tear up a little bit even thinking of it because it isn't played for laughs. I really feel for Rudy, just trying his hardest and putting way too much pressure on himself, and the way Louise steps up for her best friend is just so sweet.
All those crying Pokemon in the first film when Ash is turned into stone.
The movie 'About Time'. The ending tore me up.
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.
"Superman!"
The Iron Giant
What dreams may come, 1998 movie with Robin Williams.
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.
The episode "The Sign" of Bluey, the end.
I cry quite easily, so a small sample of films that have made my eyes misty are:
The Remarkable Life of Ibelin
Bridge to Terabithia
A Monster Calls
+1 for bridge to terabithia. That movie still chokes me up.
When Homer drives his mom to the middle of nowhere so she could meet up with some friends to escape the police and he just stays there even even after she’s long gone long enough for day to turn into night.
Grave of fireflies, of course
Ibelin. Saw it in the cinema when it first came out, seemed like everybody in the audience was crying.
(It's about a kid with a degenerative disease who connected with people through an MMO.)
The intro to the game stray
"I have been, and always shall be, your friend."
-Spock, Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan
Into the wild when he discovers that human existence isn't meant to be lived in isolation and then dies a few days later in total isolation.
The end of Saving Private Ryan always gets me as well.
