Saddest Movie Scene Ever?

I've never been an overly emotional person. Even when I was little I only cried if I thought my sister was hurt.

But I have to say, every single time I watch the elephant man I cry. I can't help myself. It is such a sad movie.

Aside from that movie, I think I teared up when the first Pokemon came out and The Pikachu has to leave. I think I was 10.

When I watch a movie or TV show, I just don't get that emotionally involved. I mean, I can get excited, I can feel happy, I can feel a little scared, and I can even feel sad for some characters. But not to such an overwhelming extent that I lose control of my emotions.

I never get so excited that I jump up out of my seat and cheer.

I never get so scared that I get up an run out the theater.

It's just so hard for me to understand it as an adult. But I accept that others do cry at moves and such. My wife cries over next to nothing.

I can explain it.

You probably have close to zero empathy. It's just a social phenomenon that you may be immune to. Unfortunately, the typical personalities associated with a complete lack of empathy range from your 'loner' at the harmless end of the spectrum all the way to sociopaths :P

Just having a little fun at your expense.

Teehee!

But I am empathic...to real people. Just not fictional ones. :)

I have always blamed my emotional control on 2 things.

1) My Dad. He was Army and red-blooded full testosterone. I've seen him cry once. Ever.

2) Being picked on. I was picked on a lot for alot of reason as a kid. And I was taught to not start fights and to resolve conflicts peacefully. I had to learn how to control my emotions, especially my anger. So I guess that evolved into how I am today.

Even today, I can be a raging inferno on the inside and not show it.

Then you have great taste in things! :)

marley and me only the ending though no matter how many times i watch it and know its coming i still cry

I totally forgot about Click. That made me cry too.

And..uh...yeah..totally cried during Transformers 3 but didn't want to admit it. :oops:

I always get caught up in the scene of "I am Sam" When He and his daughter go to the diner And.He wants What ihop has and They don't have it So he starts screaming and stuff (I have a real sensative side when it comes to the mentally challenged. I always cry at the sight of one even of They are having a great time at whatever.) And in the movie brothers with Jake gylenhall (or however you spell it) And Toby maguire when Toby's character breaks down at the end and destroys the kitchen and puts the gun to his head outside and Jake's character has to talk him down while his wife screams and cries. It just shows the reality of what the army is like. I'm so glad They didn't allow me in or I'd be mentally messed up for sure.

I cried during the Elephant Man, when Joseph ("John" in the movie) Merrick passes on, though I think they were more tears of joy. I cried during Marley and Me, and I nearly cried at the end of Cujo (based off the Stephen King novel, in which the ending also made me cry, but for different reasons because the endings are different).

I cried during Cinderella Man when it seemed like he had lost, and the ending of Gladiator made me feel a little misty-eyed as well. Wow, I cried during a lot of movies :P

I am 12, ( a girl) and the only movie I have ever cried in was Soulsurfer, although I cry every time I read my Sister's keeper.:tears:
