Right. So, I was watching !The 100 Greastest Tearjerkers" last night and I got to wondering what moments from TV and the movies had hade you weep. I only really have 2.

The first one was at the end of "Pay It Forward" when she just breaks down after the doctor speaks to her and what makes it worse is that you don't hear the doctor but you know what he's saying. The other one was really just there at ER. It was the episode with Ray Liotta as the ex-con and it was just so sad and if you've seen it you'll aggree with me.

There. I've shared my moments, so what are yours?

LotR: Return of the King, when King Elessar says "My friends, you bow to no one," and then everyone bows to the hobbits. Corny, I know, but still moving.

And Big Fish, where the son runs his dad down to the river and everyone is waiting for him. Real tear-jerker.

Finding Neverland at the end, such a sad movie.

Oh that part almost made me look like an idiot in the theaters. I was about to blubber like a baby.

Also Sunday night.. the Extreme Makeover Home Edition... MAN.. that was a good one.
It was just so touching when they gave that one homeless guy a job (not the family man but that other guy) and he just started sobbing and... woo.. that was just so awesome I had tears just streaming down my face.

LOTR: ROTK

Theoden: I know your face... Eowyn....?
Eowyn nods.
Theoden: Eowyn.... Eowyn. My eyes darken.
Eowyn: No! I'm going to save you!
Theoden: You already did.
...Eowyn... you have to let me go.
Eowyn shakes her head, tearing up.
Theoden: Eowyn... eo...ghhgk...

Green Mile, and umm, Schindlers List. I'm leaning more towards the Green Mile though.

LotR: FotR - when Boromir redeems himself and admits that he'd support Aragorn just before he dies.

Titanic - Mainly the bit where the boat is sitting vertical in the water and they're clinging to the top of the boat as it sinks, the characters performances aren't what made it sad for me, what did, was having to watch all the other little insignificant extras scramble around and die and the thought that, that is pretty much what happened to all those poor souls on the real Titanic.

I... don't really cry during movies. Or shows. I don't know why, I just don't...

I do have one that always gets me, though.

Spitfire Grill. When she slips in the water trying to save 'Johnny B.' Always. And a few scenes before that. Its just so sad...

Okay, that was... strange. o.o

Pokemon made me cry a few times.

...

It did.

I cried in Piglets BIG Movie when all of his friends wern;t being nice to him...


...don't laugh

Those Feed the Children things always make me sad. I was watching it last night when it was a special about the Tsunami. They showed this little 2 year old girl who survived because she was still in her dead mothers arms.....faces when he was giving them food to eat..... and they were saying...even when the world forgets, the its out of the news, we cannot turn our back to these children that need our help. I got my parents to donate $2500 because I felt so bad since I have a little 2 year old niece and couldn't imagine those things happening to her.


Oh....and another time when both of this girls parents died and she was sent to live with her grandparents.....and they said something along the lines of "We are so sorry we can't feed you"....and they gave her a cracker while they went hungry.

***LOST SPOILER...Don't read if you're one of those Kiwis or Aussies who just started the show!!***



When Jack and Kate go through the jungle after Ethan and find Charlie hanged by a branch. They cut him down and Jack does CPR on him for what feels like an hour. The whole time you're crying your eyes out, thinking Charlie's dead.

Bambi and Lion King still make me cry my eyes out. Especially Bambi, it's just heart wrenching when he's yelling "MOTHER." And I cried in Lady and the Tramp when they think it was Tramp that tried to kill the baby, but he was just saving the baby from the rat ;-; So sad.

All of those for me too.

RotK got me several times.

Finding Neverland...when Peter destroyed his play especially, but also at the end.

Pay It Forward, the end.

My Dog Skip, though I don't remember what parts, there were a couple times.

Of course, those last two we both watched in school, so there was a group of us girls crying our eyes out. =P

I'm sure there're more, I'm terribly sentimental, but those are the ones that come to mind.

Glad to know I'm not the only one who cried buckets watching that.

More for me: (MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS!!)
Movies:
Schindlers List: When Oscar says he could've saved one more person

The Color Purple: When Cellie is reunited with her sister

Moulin Rouge: When Satine dies and Christian lets out that heart-wrenching sob

And the Band Played On: At the end when they show that montage from all those people who have died from AIDS

TV

ER: Never saw the one with Ray Liotta, but I always go through at least half a box of tissues when I watch the one where Lucy (Kellie Martin) dies
